There nre several ways Tommy uses
to disguise the location of his machine

most commonly used stunts are us fol
lows : .

"getting the sparks." This consists
Urine linrsts from his gun until the
bullets hit the German barbed wire,
lie can tell when they are cutting the
.wire, because n bullet when it bits a
wire throws out a blue electric spark.
Machluc-gun fire Is very damaging to
wire and causes many a wiring party
to go out at night when It is quiet to
repair the damage.
To disguise the flare of his gun at
night when firing, Tommy uses what Is
called a Hare protector. This Is a stove
pipe arrangement which fits over the
; barrel easing of the gun nnd icreens

not from the front. So Tommy, always
resourceful, adopts this scheme: About
