BELGIANS BRAND HUN OFFICERS’ PARAMOURS Shave Heads: of Women Who Werc Invaders’, Mistresses BY HAROLD €E, BECHTOL. European Nanager of the N. E. A. Liege, Belgium.—The evergreen arches of Belgium tell the story of how Germany blundered. Women with heads shaved, slinking out of the country, are evidence of the thoroughness of belgium in cleaning house. Hundreds of arches lining the roads and streets from No-Man’s Land to the German border were erected by Bel- gians in honor of the soldiers wha passed under them following the Boches eastward, The , Belgians keep these arches fresh with flowers, symbol of a Bel- gium liberated and united more firm- ly than ever. despite fifty months of effort ‘to Germanize ‘its NO, Diring the, last, three week i) been in’ Wahy: pats” of Belstlin,” I find that’ nottling thakes ‘ihe Reigns angrier than the thought of how the ‘Germans, misread: their character aud thought they could coerce and adsor) them: (es ey .The women with shaved heads are thund in several of the cities.
