AND THE WOODS IN THE WAR 



The upper picture was taken at a spot very near the front lines in France, and gives a splendid idea of the construction of a first-class 

 shell shelter, doubly protected by the woods in front. In the lower picture are shown typical dug-outs, this one being that of a post 

 commander. He is receiving a message for artillery barrage. Note the walk made of wooden trench-mats, or "duck boards."
