On the fire step would be a pile of finigments of shells., shrapnel balls, bits of iron, nails, etc. — any- thing that was hard enoughato eend over to Fritz: he would scoop up a hahdful of this junk and put it in the bomb. Perhaps one of the platoon would ask him what he did this for, and he would explain that when the bomb exploded these bits would fly about and kill or wound any German hit by same; the questioner would bn- neediately pull a button off his tunic and hand it to the bomb -maker with, "Well. blime me, send this over as a souvenir," or another Toinny would volunteer an old rusty and broken jackknife; both would be accepted and inserted. The a the Professor would take an- other handful of mud and All the tin, after which he would punch a hole in the lid of the tin and put it over the top of the bomb, the fuse sticking out. Then perhaps he would tightly wrap wire around the outside of the tin and the bomb was ready to send over to Fritz with Toramy's complimepts, A piece of wood about four inches long and two inches wide had been issued. This was to be strapped on the left forearm by means of two leather straps and was like the side of a match box; it was called a "striker" There was a tip like that of a match on the fuse of the bomb. To ignite the fuse, you had to rub it on the "striker," just the same as striking a match. The fuse was timed to five seconds or longer. Some of the fuses issued in those days would burn down in a second or two, while others would "sizz" for a week before 'exploding. Back in Blighty the munition workers weren't quite up to snuff, the way they are now. If the fuse took a notion to burn too quickly they generally buried the bombmaker next day. So making bombs could noe be called a- "cushy" or safe job. After making several bombs, the Professor instructs the platoon in throwing them. He takes a "jam tin" from the fire step, trembling a little, because it is nervous work, especially .11••••... GIRLS!
