STRATEGY CLASH
French and German Methods Put
to Test.
THEORIES EXACTLY OPPOSITE
0utsIanklns Of Enemy Chief Feature
Of German TactIes-Freneh system
ls More Varied and Lees
Simple.

The clash between the armies OF the
French republic and the German en-
pire win prove Of extraordinary In
teregtl to military tacticians for many
reasons. Results should settle, for
some time to come, conflicting princi-
Piles Of strategy which ct present are
somewhat Of puzzle.
There 10 only one element capable
Of confusing the issue, namely. the
totally different racial characteristics
and temperaments, In 30 far as they
interfere with the practical applica-
ton Of the tactical theories which
have been worked out by the ablest
minds Of the two great military or
ganizations Of these powers.
AS far as can be learned, little fault
can be found with the condition OF
preparedness OF both armies Of the
Franco-German frontier. The German
forces, II anything. outnumber those
Of France, but when one is dealing in
millions the difference, proportionate-
" considered, Is really not SO great
as 1t seems at a glance. Even a slight
superiority in maneuvering the huge
army corps, and little greater ability
to have them in the right place at the
right time, may more than overbal-
Rnce any discrepancy in the total num-
Der Of men in the field.
The German organization Is the old
er. Its present system is built on the
foundation supplied by the victorious
armies of the Franco-Prussian war. In
discipline, training, mobilization and
principles Of moving large bodies of
troops, 1t is the logical successor that
one would expect to find, making al
lowance for the development Of mod
ern weapons, transportation facilities
and equipment.
Both nations have efficient aviation
corps. Germany has the advantage in
the number Of dirigibles, while France
has some 750 aeroplanes already in
commission, against about 400 of the
Germans.
French Artillery Superior.
In the artillery arm it Is generally
admitted that the French are supe-
rior. The gunners are faultlessly
trained, and the guns themselves are
Of more modern, powerful and eff
cient type.
To sum up, Germany outnumbers
France approximately 100000 to A.
000,0 in total war strength. She is
supposed to be slightly superior in
general discipline and training. while
in two special arms, aviation division
and artillery, France has noticeable
advantage. This is how the materials
with which the rival tacticians viii
have to work, compare.
Strangely enough. the underlying
principle or spirit OF the military or
ganization of each nation would seem
to fit the other better. 1t is the French
who have given the greater emphasis
to complex dispositions OF troops for
purposes Of security and sureness, and
the Germans who permeate themselves
with the idea that simplicity Of tactics,
coupled with energy and flerceness of
attack. brings success.

Pine sticks supporting empty packets
mark the site of embryo beets, peas
and kohLrabi, and here is a row Of
poles for the delicious lima bean.
Back in her wire prison the Plym-
outh Rock sings and cackles, and be-
side her another fuses and scratches
for her brood Of fluffy chicks. On the
porch Of the Reynolds cottage q ca
nary trills and MARBLES, answering the
chatter of myriad sparrows. In the
kitchen James song browns the clat-
ter Of the dishes. Music is in the
air; life is in the blood. Even Mrs.
Collins has ceased to grumble. It is
spring!
The Reynolds dinner is for three
tonight. For the first time since their
coming the new home is to receive an
urban caller.
RGood old Dick" said Jane as she
set his place at the table. Il do hope
he won't disappoint US.
Her fear was groundless. Dick
Meade would not disappoint her, for
he was an atom In the great legion
Of the unattached; bachelor and
alone. He had not formed the habit
of declining invitations to dinner.
Dick was a reporter on, q morning
newspaper in New York; political
reporter with a leaning toward social
ism and a leniency toward drink.
Poor, blue-eyed, boyish Dick, with
a panacea for all earthly ills except
his own: champion OF the downtrod-
den, but one of them; an aspiring ST.
Patrick longing to drive out all the
hydra-headed serpents of monopoly
with wand Of words; dreamer Of
dreams, but lovable, withal. and a
stanch friend. He and Reynolds
were almost opposite types and this
very difference In their lives made
them companionable Dick, also, was
not blind to the attractions Of his
friends young wife. She was charm
ing hostess, he thought The dulcet
harmony he found in this home often
lulled his own feverish philosophy, or,
at least, upset it.
Jane heard them approaching now
and hurried out to the yeranda.
Welcome. stranger" she said after
she had escaped from Bob's embraces.
"You have almost forsaken u.s."
Dick responded with laugh and an
obsequious bow. "Never, fair one;
have merely been conserving re-
sources that may pay toll to corpo-
rate interests en- route. Thirty cents
for the round trip. Jane. Enough for
wiener schnitzel and two pilseners.
Besides, bring tribute to my island
queen. See!" He held up paste
board box punctured here and there
with airholes that he concealed. Jane
took 1t from him.
Something alive!" she cried as she
tried to peep into one of the aper-
lures. She ran into the house for
scissors and returning, cut the string.
Within there peered at her from two
sleepy. light-blinded eyes, fox ter
rier puppy, diminutive and finely
marked.
