Few of us, no matter how well posted we may be on war moves, or how well posted we may be on the daily movements of these armies across the sea, have any conception of the enormous labor and material that goes into making a mile of front. And since we do not know we are unable to place anything like a true value upon the capture of even a few yards of trench.
