With the American Army in France.
—Turning "Heinle's” own machine
guns back on him is the newest and
favorite stunt in a certain American
outfit.
The boys just stumbled onto this
sport, and they like it.
Recently in raids the boys brought
back some German machine guns, after
driving the Germans away from their
own strongholds.
“Why not use these German guns
on the Heinies?” one thinking dough
boy asked his pals.
“You’re crazy; we haven’t any am
munition that’ll fit them.”
“Why can’t we go over and get
some?’’ replied the thinker.
"Never thought of that,” replied the
others; “we’re on.”
That night they raided the German
trenches and brought back plenty of
ammunition and mother German ma
chine gun. Next day the guns were
playing on the “Heinies.”
“They’re darned good machine
guns,” said one chap enthusiastically,
“but the Heinies don’t know how to
use them. We do, though. We’re get
ting a little low on ammunition. Guess
we’ll have to run over to Germany to
night and make ’em hand out some
more.”
