Eye Witness Says
Germans PT0dlgQl
Of Ammunition
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATcHI

LONDON, Oct 1.-THE official
press bureau issued tonight the fol-
loving descriptive account of an eye
witness with Field Marshal French's
! Headquarters, supplementing the
narrative of yesterday of the move
ments of the British forces and the
French armies in immediate toucn
with it.
In spite of the perfection of their
arrangements for ranging and oh =
servation. there has been much waste
of ammunition by the Germans For
| instance, within an area of two
acres on our side of the Aisne there
were more than 100 craters made by
their high explosive shells. This
shower of projectiles, which must
have cost some 1000 pounds, did alb
| solutely no damage, for the locality
never happened to be occupied while
it was being bombarded.
1T also incidentally illustrates one
of the weak points of indirect fire
when unaccompanied by observation.
Another example of the prodigal-
ity of ammunition is the continued
shelling of Rheims. This is still car
ried on at intervals, and on the 9th
resulted in the death of an entire
family of eight people. On the 7tA
twelve of the inhabitants were hit.
on the other hand. the conceal
ment of their own guns, as of all
their troops, has been most carefully
practiced by the Germans. They
construct alternative entertainments
so that when one position is made
too hot for them another can be
taken up without loss of time.
Ever since the South African war
the desirability of rendering troors
as invisible as possible has been gen
orally recognized in all armies, and
this war has thrown much light on
the matter 1t appears that at long
ranges the uniform matters little,

many departments of the new store
will be in working order long before
then, in fact the majority of the de-

order by daylight this morning, a
large force of employees having spent

ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATcH1

BOSTON, Oct. 11.-ReSted by a
day passed at their homes and in ho-
tells, the Boston Braves and Phila-
delphia Athletics will tomorrow re-
sumo their struggle for the baseball
supremacy of the world. TomOr-
rows and Tuesdays games will be
in Fenway Park, the home of the To-
cal National leaders.
With two victories to their credit,
Stalling's men face the issue conf
IDENTIFY. They went to Philadelphia
with long odds against them and
they have returned the favorites by
even longer ODDS. While Boston is
uplifted by the enthusiasm of a two
time winner, the Athletics are fight
ing with their backs to wall to
retain the world championship that
has been theirs thrice before.
Manager George Stallings will use
either Rudolph or Tyler in the third
same Rudolph who won his team
mates the right to be favorites over
the Mackmen in the first game, is
in perfect condition, owing to his
two day rest, but, because Of the
splendid showing made by the Brave
fielders, it is likely that No-Hit
Tyler the third big Injun, will be
nominated. Whaling will probably
be the backstop, although Gowdy's
stick work may earn him that hon
or once more.
Mack is thought to have settled on
Bender as his moundsman for to-
morrow, even though the veteran
was knocked from the box on Fri
day.
All the reserved seats, numbering
16, 900. have been sold. Twenty thou
sand unreserved seats caused a line
of men and boys to form early to-
day-thousands being determined 20
wait until tomorrow afternoon in or
der to gain access to the park.
Excitement in Phoenix has SIM
mered down since Boston took the
second game, and much of the bet
ting on the Athletics has changed
from series to third game. All the
Boston money in the world can be
! found among the enthusiastic sup
porters of the on rushing Braves.
A few good sized wagers have
been noted, but by far the greatest
amount lies in the pocket money bets.
Some are still sticking up for the
Athletics because they believe the
willy Mack will not be outgamed by
even the Miracle Man Stallings.

of themselves?
In a moment, the three stood be-
fore him.

'take us home. People are staring
at US.
'sWhat does this mean?" Mr.. Iver-
son demanded. 'Why have you made
such frights of yourselves?''
Then, right before the philanthro-
pist, Gloria made her little speech.
''You told US you were too poor to
give us new gowns. You told us to
dress as mother did-and we have
done it-what should you find in
that to criticise ?"
Then suddenly it seemed to Mr..
Iverson that he saw written across
the face of the philanthropist, in
flaming words, "You-miser-w He
saw it on the faces of all the people.
"Come away" he said hoarsely,
and went out, followed by the trem-
bling girls, who, now that they had
punished him, were in tears of re-
morse and humiliation.
"Who would have dreamed it
would have been so awful" whim-
pered Beth to her lover, who had
drifted toward her out of the shad-
ows.

went straight up to his wife's room.

Presently he raised his head and
softer light shone in his eyes.

thing soft and silky and beautiful

''There is a way" said Gloria sud-
denly, then stopped as they cried
eagerly, "What? '
Don't you worry" said Gloria,
''he's got to be walked up, as mother
calls it, and I am going to do it
finally and effectually."
The occasion for which the girls
had needed new gowns was the an
nual dinner given for the benefit of
the towns free library. Here were
gathered together all of the promi-
nent citizens, and here came the rich
philanthropist from the city with
whom Mr.. Iverson loved to meet and
discuss financial matters with the
hope of a clew which might bring
more dollars.
He cared little what his daughters
wore, for no one noticed them, at
least no one in whom he was inter-
ested. Their old gowns were surely
good enough for the people of the
town.
But Gloria and Beverly and Beth
loved pretty things, not only for
their own sake, but because of the
three men who had wooed and won
them.
When Gloria told her plan to her
lover, he was doubtful of its success.

your father, and what do we want

said Gloria, passionately. sHe boards
it and boards it, and doesn't do one
good or beautiful thing with it. He
isn't even making mother happy
and it hurts me to see her disappoint-
ed in him."
Beverly crept into Gloria's room
on the night before the annual din
ner. 'I'm afraid, Gloria, she WIS
pered, "I'm afraid I won't have the
courage to go through with il"
But Beth was not afraid. She,
like Gloria, was sustained by the
thought that something must be done
to bring happiness to her mother.
"And thank goodness, mother isn't
going to be at the dinner" said
Gloria.
There was much rummaging the
next day in the attic. There was
some giggling, too, but when Mrs.
Iverson asked the cause of the hilar-
ity, Gloria answered owe are trying
to find something to wear, dear
mother"
Beverly's lover was as young and
ardent as herself. "You're a beauty"
he whispered, as Beverly threw off
her cloak in the room downstairs and
displayed her costume. you've got

that's wonderful"
Beverly in an old gray gown of her
grandmother's, made with a skinny
skirt and fat sleeves, with a prim
little collar and her fair curls falling
over her neck, was perfect-Beth
was, on the other hand, grotesque.
She wore a big green silk poke bon
net, a crepe shawl and wide skirt
over a hoop. Her hands were in
cased in mitts, and her hair was
looped over her ears. Gloria was in
a brown stuff gown, too big for her,
and made on Quakerish lines.
