LINE BANKS OF YSERj
Much of Debris of Battle Has Been
Removed, But Not All.
Oorrt'ApnmU'iu'ti of the Associated 1rea.
WXHUDH, Belgium, Sept. 22.
Lining the banks of the Yser river, ar.
far as the rye can see, aro the trench
es which, for so many monthseduriiiK
the wat, were occupied by the Belgian
and German armies, the Belgians on
the south siJe and the Geiunans on the
north. They 'still bear many narka
of shell and rifle firo, and mouldy
straw lying on the damp floors still
convey some idea of tho Hardships to
which the (soldiers were subjected.
On the German side of the river is
a dugout, built to resist the heaviest
projectiles, and cool even on a hot Jay.
It was a. favor ft 6 gathering spot for
the Germans when the -fighting war
fiercest, but now serves the more use
ful purpose of a refrigerator. Instead
of the bunks and chairs which once
lined its sides one now sees pile upon
pile of beer cases, filled with" refresh
ment for the soldier guard at work
cleaning the ground.
Behind the dugout, the bodies of
three soldiers two Belgians and on
German were buried on tho bank
of n tiny pond, made by bursting
shells. Littlo crosses marking tho
resting places and over them poppier
nod.
Along the Yser one may plainly sec
tho effects of the hard fought atrug
gle. Here and there the top of a dug
out has been crushed in, and further
along the duckboards from an aband
oned trench may be seen sticking
through the mud. Within sight of
the bridge, the muzzle of a f iel4 piece
rusted and useless, points to the sky
Much of the debris of the battle
field has already been collected. Miles
upon miles of barbed wire nave beer
reclaimed from the entanglements.
German and Allied, which stretched
in front of the lines but at some pointr
along the river bnnk the old entangle
ments still remain, rusted and twisted
on stakes which aro fast falling to
the ground. There are great piles of
reeled wire which has not been un
wound since it left the wire mills,
while the military telephone systems
are still stretched upon short stakes
The people of Dixmudc, like the peo
ple of every other destroyed Belgian
town, nre gradually returning to the
ruins of their homes. Tho help bciny
given them by the government is giv
ing them heart and strength to begin
life over again. Here one may see a
man patching up n shell' hole in his
house with a few bricks taken front
the ruins of his neighbors home, and
in another place men, and women too.
are patching a roof.
But these instances are few. In
most cases the destruction was so com
plete that nothing is left for the poo
Pelgian but to build a new hon.op.
But the people are happy and cheer
ful. They go about their work with
smiling faces and merry laughter.
They are back home.
