SHRAPNEL GIVES
DEMONSTRATION OFF
ITS WAR POWER
By Associated Press.

CAMP ATASCADERO, CAL, Sept.
29.-Shrapnel, the destroyer of
lives, gave proof of it's power at the
encampment today. Three batteries
under Major Millar raked Silhouette
figures, representing men in trench
es, with fire before which no
human battalion could have stood.
The gunners could not see the tar
gets, but were directed by Millar,
stationed half mile away. The
firing was almost perfect, and de-
monstrated the truth of Won
Moltke's assertion that of all the
machines of war shrapnel was the
most nerve racking and morale de-
stroying.

TONOPAH FANS CAN SEE

one of the funniest comedies that
has yet been placed on the market.
No one can afford to miss it. 1t
is great representation of the
famous American game and is cer-
tainly a scream from start to fin
ish. 1t starts with Mr.. Blink, who
is great baseball fan, leaving for
home to take his wife to the big
game. He is very excited and has
several narrow escapes in reaching
the ball park. The game is very
exciting for Mr.. Blink but not so
for his poor wife, who finally falls
asleep over "a fat mans shoulder.
The home TEN wins the game and
Blink is so elated that he forgets
all about his wife, and follows the
procession back to town. When his
wife awakens and locates him, she
forcibly reminds him of his neg
lect. The situations throughout
are exceedingly funny and will be
worth the price of admission alone.
