thk immsn links in
ril A.NCK, June 1!• (by mail). Snip
ing and eountersniping has been re
duced (n a line art in modern warfare,
and the sharpshooter uses many other
branches of the service to assist him.
An incident which occurred a few
days ago in the Hritish lines in Flan
ders shows how a little artillery work
is sometimes ne< essary in brining the
undoing ni Lonmin snipers
Lieutenant Jackson, battalion snip
ing ollicer, was walking down the
trench when he heard a sudden rattle
of musketry, Lerman bullets strlk
ing one of the Hritish sniping
plates. One of his sniping posts was
being battered by German armor
piercing bullets.
The officer hurried to the scene and
with his periscope he located the spot
where the Germans were firing. It
was a big post on some ground behind
the enemy firing line, hidden with
earth an dlooking exactly like any one
of the other tangled hummocks with
which shells and mines had strewn
the vicinity. Hut his trained eye
quickly marked out four small aper
tures which he knew to he loopholes
The ext eHence of his periscope even
enabled him to see the puffs of un
burned powder which came from the
four hostile rifles at every shot.
Iiney are oeuinu me concrete ami
steel under the service of the mud,
. sir,” said the sergeant. "It won’t be
easy dealing with them.”
"It’s a case of heavy artillery, I'm
afraid. murmered Lieutenant Jack
son regretfully, he disliked calling if
outside assistance for his snipers.
"1 saw the major of that heavj
batten which covers ns. going by n
moment ago.” suggested the sergeant
Lieutenant Jackson hurried off dowr
the trench and found tin* major who
was up on a survey of tin* enemy lint
for special targets. A hint of whal
had dev doped brought the Major hack
and a minute later he was in the near
est signal dugout, telephoning instruc
tions to his battery.
Meanwhile Lieutenant Jackson heck
oned the sergeant away out of th*
Major’s hearing. "Put Haggerty and
Brown into Post 1*. Sergeant.” he or
dered. "I don't think the Herman*
have any communication into that
post of their’s. and they will have t<
bolt to cover over the ridge."
Presently the first heavy projectile
came rumbling up from the rear. It
burst fifty yards wide in a rgeat splash
of earth. The second shell burst in
the Herman line, right in front of the
sniping post, and tore a huge gap in
the parapet. The third fell right on
top of the post itself. Hut the con
crete of the structure was strong, and
the shell actually ricocheted clear and
burst several yards away
"That has frightened them.” ex
claimed the Major suddenly, as foui
figures appeared from behind the
sniping post and raced madly for the
' crest of the ridge. Just then a shot
, rang out from the British trench, and
the first Herman pitched forward on
his face. The second fell a yard fur
ther. The remaining two were
dropped before they reached the crest.
