GREAT JOY AS ~
ALLIES ENTER
BELGIAN TOWNS
WITH THE BRITISH FORCES, Oct.
21.—Houbaik and Turcoing celebrated
their deliverance from the enemy. The
people were wild with emotional joy,
and kissed, hugged and shook hands
with every Britisher they came in j
reach of.
The swashbuckling Bermans have
gone, and have left as much destruc-1
tion as possible in their wake. Nearly
every home was sacked. The Ber
mans even ripped pictures from their
frames and cut the leather front the!
seats of chairs.
Didn't Know We Were at War
HOXItON, Oct. 21.—The scenes of
yy....
happlnes on the entry of the allies
into Hruges eclipsed even those at
Lille after the liberation of that city.
During the German occupation of
Hruges the people there were not al
lowed to receive news of the outside
world unless it was handled by Ger
man officers.
An American woman there did not
know the Americans were lighting.
Everything in the nature of metal
was taken away. All bridges are gone
and Hruges was fined enormous sums
on various occasions.
Devilish Work of Huns
The recaptured city of Douai is a
desolate waste. Its streets are tilled
with furniture and articles of all kinds.
The losses are incalculable. It might
be said that all the insane asylums
had been opened and all the madmen
had poured into Douai, and in their
fury they had delighted in destroying
everything.
