Inc Pconles of ItaII.

There is a marked difference in stat ure and temperament between the peo' nle of north Italy and those of south Italy. The Lougobarjs, or Lomhards. who about 5jS took possession of northern Italy and permanently es' tablished themselves in the rich valley watered by the Pc and its ahiuents, were of Tcutouic stock, their original home having been the region on the left bank of the Elbo, round about lgalrphurg and Luncburg. Germany, while the Italians south of Lombardy are of the old Latin stock. This fact explains the physical and other diIer' cnrcs between the people from the north and the people from the south of Italy.

TALKS OF MODERN
FIELD ARTILLERY
Easy to Burn Up $4,000 in 10
Minutes of Target Practice,
Speaker Says.

Evolution OF field ordnance was the
subject of an address by Major n.
Jameson last evening before the re
Gently organized Moline University
club. The major formerly was in
struCtor AT the West Point Military
academy and at one time had charge
of tests made at the Sandy Hook prov
ing grounds He is now connected
with the engineering department Of
Deere x Co.
y number of excellent stereoptiCon
slides were used in illustrating the
Development OF artillery. The speaker
explained the manner of manufacture
and the power and range of guns of
various types. Cost of modern war
fare was brought vividly home TO his
hearers when the major showed that
ii was possible in 10 minutes work
with one of the large rapid fire guns to
burn up $4,000 worth of ammunition.
The highest cost in connection with
field tests was reached several years
ago when the government tried out
the Maxim type of projectile which
eXplodeS or detOnates after passing
through an obstruction, such as ar
NOR plate of battleship. 1t was
shown that this kind of projectile does
much more damage than one which
detonates at the instant of impact. a
single shot being sufficient 10 destroy
the most powerful battlesh1, Shots
fired in these tests cost $4,000 each.
The program committee of the club
reported plan for a course OF study
for members which will be acted upon
at the next meeting. The subjects
covered are civics. economics, litera-
ture. science. art, history and educ.
