A charming story of Jutland, where the German! are building fortifications and airfields, came to the 8.8. C. by way of Sweden. The Germans have destroyed all the trees, the informant says, and set up heavy guns, built walls round it all, and prepared tank traps on the main roads; On one road, a short distance from the trap, there was written in a childish hand: “Dear Englishman, go by Gelso, there are no traps there.”
