horrible story. Whore they were re-
building roads they had TO depend upon
maps to locate what had once been
towns. In one spot l6 bodies had been
buried and they were thrown out by
shells. Everywhere were skeletons.
The intensive shellng brought up new
soil and the grass there grew longer.
Many Of the towns were completely de-
mOlished and even the brick from the
ruined walls covered up by the shell
fire. Neither tongue nor pen can des-
cribe the great damage wrought.-Wood-
