stay of the artillery. Because of
the fact that the modern gun of
this type has been developed to a
high degree OF effectiveness, the So
called heavy artillery is rapidly dis
appearing. All the others in use
besides the Gin. piece being the
howitzers of the mountain type and
At and Gin. hOwitzers, the latter
two of which constitute the heavy
artillery"
Although several types of motor
trucks have been experimental
with by the government, only two
have been adopted officially. Ac-
cording to the.specifications for mill
itary motor vehicles the chassis of a
machine must ibe of a shape and
size to accommodate the standard
army-wagon body. The light truck
particularly that of 1 1-2. ton capac-
ity, has met with greatest favor in
the service. These have have been
used successfully as tractors and
regular carriers"

Yawn if You Wish.

According to most of our books
on etiquette it is very improper to
yawn, but from the standpoint of
health it is one of the best things
we can do.
For one thing. a yawn ventilates
the lungs. When you take an ordi-
nary breath the lungs are not COM
pletely filled, nor are they thorough
ly emptied by an ordinary resplra-
ton. There is Il certain quantity of
air left in the lungs always what
psychologists call residual air."
This air in time becomes foul
and effects the blood, and through
the blood the nervous centers. Then
at certain times certain nerves get
tickled as it were, and the result is
long-drawn-out yawn, which has
the power of stretching the lungs
10 their fullest extent, driving out
all the foul air and drawing in a sup
ply of fresh, pure air.
Yawning, too, is beneficial to your
hearing. When you give an extra
big yawn you hear a cracking sound
inside your head. That is due to
the stretching and opening of GER
tain tubes which connect the ear
and the back of the throat. If they
are congested, as happens when you
have bad cold in the head, you
complain of deafness.
If you feel inclined to yawn, by
all means do this so, regardless of
what your book on etiquette may
say. From Tit Bits.

Uncle Sans Fighting Tools.

When a corps of marines or a
party of sailors is ordered ashore
for land duty, such as the seizure
and temporary occupation of a port
or the garrisOning Of legation,
high-power automatic machine guns
constitute one Of the chief items of
equipment supplied forces. The re-
cent development Of these instru-
ments of destruction has been so
little less than marvellous that to-
day single machine, in theory at
least, splits death faster and more
certainly than the rifles of an entire
company could in the past. An it,
Illustrated article in September Pop
ular Mechanics Magazines describes
the heavier machinery of war with
which our soldiers, sailors, and ma
rines do their days work. 1t says:
For both of the types of machine
guns used by the army and navy
the ammunition used is the same
as that taken'by the new rifle, this
representing another careful provis-
ion for the Standardization of fight
ing equipment. Between 800 and
shots a minute can be fired, each
with an initial velocity of $500 #.
a second, and a maximum range of
about 1000 yd., with one model of
these guns. In this, the ammuni-
ton is fed by means of canvas belts
in which a large number of shells
are held. Just as rapidly as one of
these is emptied another is run
through after it. The pressure re.
sulting from the expansion of gases
following an explosion in the firing
chamber effects the automatic feat
ure of the instrument.
A Sin. rifle which closely re-
sembles the field pieces of the same
size used by the artillery, is taken
ashore by the landing parties from
battleships. 1t fires a 13-lb. projec-
tile at a muzzle velocity of 1850
1T. a second. 1t is effective up to
about 5000 yd. and uses either a
steel shell, which is exploded by i'm
pact. or shrapnel, which bursts eth
er by impact or time-fuse ignition.
1t is fitted with a heavy shield
which protects its operator from
the fire of the enemy.

President Wilson Should Be Sup
ported.

PRESIDENT WUSO0 OHer OF meal
alton is on file in the various Europ-
can chancellories The American
newspapers have protested, solemn
ly and earnestly, against the fratri-
eide of the nations. European and
American Socialists have joined in
condemning the war as a crime
against humanity. But more re-
mains to be done, says the Post
Dispatch.
For the time being, Mars has the
stage Of action. The advocates of
peace in Europe have been silenced
American peace conference dele
gates have returned without an op-
portunity of being heard. And the
war trumpet seems to make all ap
peals to reason futile.
But the time may come, sooner
than men think possible, when the
combatants will be ready to listen
to reason. A great defeat will dis
pose one or more of the combatants
to think of mediation. Meanwhile,
the voice of America should be
raised, as never before, in the inter
est of humanity. President Wilson's
offer of mediation should receive
hearty support, through the express
sion of public approval, all over the
country.
Europe should be convinced that,
no matter how far the war madness
may spread in the Old World, Amer
lea is for mediation and the adjust
ment of International disputes by
peaceful methods. 1t is a crime to
remain silent at this time. The
fate of civilization hangs on the
balance.
Referring to the presidents &C.
ton, Mr.. Bryan says:
"On August 4th the president sent
the following offer of mediation to
the emperors of Germany and Aus
tria. the car of Russia, the king of
Great Britain, and the president of
France:
AS official head of one of the
powers sienatory to The Hague con-
vention, l feel it to be my privilege
and my duty under article III of
that convention to say to you, in
spirit of most earnest friendship,
that l should welcome an opportu-
nifty to act in the interest of Europ-
can peace, either now or at any
other time that might be thought
more suitable as an occasion to
serve you and all concerned in a
way that would afford me lasting
cause for gratitude and happiness
1T may be some time before the
nations engaged in the European
war will be willing to listen to any
suggestion of mediation, but the
president. in rendering the good Of
fees of this government at this
time, has measured up to the re-
sponsibilities of the nation and to
the expectations of the American
people. The United States stands
for! peace its preservation as
long as it can possibly be preserv-
ed-and, in case of war, it stands
for the restoration of peace at the
earliest possible moment. When
the anger of the belligerent nations
has sufficiently abated, they will
find the president waiting to render
such assistance as may be within
his power in the direction of ac-
commodation and Cancellation. He
has sent the dove out of the ark in
search of dry land-God speed its
return with the olive leafl"-Hanni-
bal Journal.
