THE WORLD'S ADVANCE 



IN THE REAR OF THE TEUTONIC BATTLE LINES 



Russian prisoners in tiermany 

 put to work building a stockade 

 in which they are to be confined. 

 There are a large number of Rus- 

 sian prisoners in both Germany 

 and Austria, especially since the 

 terrific Austro-German drive in 

 Galicia, which has resulted in 

 the retaking of much Austrian 

 territory, including the fortress 

 of Przemysl. 



One of the famous Austro-Hun- 

 garian motor guns in a wood in 

 Russian Poland. This gun is in- 

 teresting not only because of the 

 remarkable way in which it is 

 loaded the view shows a projectile 

 sliding on rails into the breech- 

 but also because it can be taken 

 apart, placed on heavy motor 

 trucks and transported from 

 place to place. 



A heavy tractor used in hauling 

 the big German guns. 



German infantry using scaling lad- 

 ders in order to leave their in- 

 trenched position and attack the 

 enemy. Ladders are used by both 

 German and Allied troops to facili- 

 tate leaving deep trenches.
