' Harland Lewis 93 - ' German Trench Houses. fj* The German front in the West, the Ix)ndon limes tells us, is like a huge village that is strung out along a road three hundred miles long. ur course thehousesare all underground. Still they are houses of one or two floors, built according to certain official designs. The main entrance from the trench level is through a steel door, of a pattern apparently standardised, so that hundreds come from the factory on one order, and missing parts can be easily replaced. The heavily timbered doorway is made to their measure. Inside, a flight of from twelve to thirty-six stairs leads . do* ii at an easy angle. The treads of the stairs and the descending roof of the staircase are formed of mining frames of stout timber, with doubk top lills: the walls are of thick planks notched at the top and bottom to fii the frames, and strengthened with iron tie-rods that run from top tc r?f thA stnira nnH with thick W IrbVUl V? V<*V V ? ... woolen struts at right angles to the tie-rods. At the foot of the stairs a tunneled corridor runs straight forward for perhaps fifty yards, and from it rooms and minor passages open on either side. In some of the dugouts a second staircase leds to a lower floor, which may be as much as thirty or forty feet below the trench level. These staircases, passages and rooms are usually completely lined with planks. In one typical dugout each section of a platoon had its alloted place for messing and sleeping, its own place for parade in a passage, and its own emergency exit to the trench. In another, used as a dressing station, there were beds for thirty-two patients and a fair-sized eperating room. A third, near Mametz, was designed to house three hundred men, w|th the needful kitchens, provision and munition storerooms, a well, a forge, an engine room and a motor room. Many of the captured dugouts were thus lighted by electricity. In the officers' quarters there have been found full-length mirrors, com fortable bedsteads, cushioned armchairs and some pictures. One room is lined with glazed "sanitary" wall paper, and the present English occupant is convinced by circumstantial evidence that his predecessor lived then- with his wife and child. Clearly, there was no expectation of an early move. To Cure a Cold In One Day Take l^AXATIVE BROMO Quinine.
