TRICKS OF THE WAR TRADE

The ethics of the ambush has
never been very thoroughly thrashed
out, and just how far one adversary
In struggle may go, to win by de-
eeit over the other, is question that
invariably arouses ill-feeling on both
sides. A boxer may feint, but he
may not wear a horseshoe in his
glove. A general may send spies
out in the uniform of his opponents,
but he may not advance under the
white flag and attack the foe The
present war has brought out even
more than the usual number OF tricks
ana strattagems, concerning some of
which dispute still ranges. But their
inventors are only following IN the
footsteps OF the ancients, who crept
within the walls of Troy inside the
Trojan horse. The Trojan-horse
iuea' as matter of fact, has a direct
descendant in this war. The mantle

wrecks OF the 'Iliad" falls gracefully
upon German shoulders. The story
