Tho trenches of tho permanent positions nro dug by tho pioneers, ns nro nlso tho approach of trenches, bomb-proofs and tunnels, which make up tho modem "position- fight" line. What it means to bo n pioneer is well told In n letter which has just bcon published In tho German press. 1 Tho wrltor explains that tho division stnff had thought it advisablo to nd- vanco closor to tho French trenches. Ileforo this could bo dono a tronch I hnd to bo dug; otherwise tho Infantry sent thoro would bo mowed down by 1 tho flro from tho other side.

"Tho tronch wo woro digging wus only 180 to 200 feot'from tho tronch or tho enemy, somo of tho brnvost of whom had perchod thomselves In tho crowns of somo willow trees and woro I popping away at us.
