Masked Batteries Necessary Now on

1t is only of quite recent years that

To cope with this danger the guns

Of LEAKAGE, trees and In many instances
draped over with foliage precisely in
harmony with the color of the immedi.

A good artillery officer can control
his battery much like a fireman does
his hose. Although his guns are hid

overlooking the field Of action in order
to be able to give instructions to his

THE TURKISH BABY.
Odd Customs Attend Upon His Birth
and His First Bath.

Odd Customs Attend Upon His Birth
and His First Bath.
A Turkish baby looks very queer In
his odd dress. He wears over his shirt
kind Of padded gown. something like
bathrobe, and on his little head he
wears bright red silk cap with a
tassel of seed pearls. To keep all evil
away from the baby one or more
charms are fastened to the tassel.
His arms and legs are bound tightly
after they are Strengthened out by his
nurse, and when he is all fixed he is
put in a little bed and covered with
several warm pads In addition to this
a thin red veil Is put over all.
When he is all ready his father
comes in to see him for the first time.
If the child is boy, the father is
doubly pleased. He takes the child up
very tenderly in his arms and carries
him out Of the room. Just outside the
door he rests minute and prays. After
he prays three times he repeats the
name chosen for the baby and this is
tho way the baby is christened.
When the child is three days old a
celebration is held and old women who
make regular business of this go to
the different houses inviting the ladies
to the party. At each house they tell
the day of his birth and the name of
the baby and urge the people to come.
On the day OF p. celebration the
people arrive from early in the morn
ing until late in the afternoon. Nearly
all bring presents for the baby's mother,
and each person as she gives her pres
ent to the mother expresses a pleasant
wish for the child.
They hardly notice the baby, for the
mother is afraid Of bad luck if too
much attention is paid to It. The few
who do look at him say how ugly he
is or something like that and this de-
lights the mother, who knows they do
not mean what they say.
II the parents are rich sweet sherbet
or coffee and candies, cakes and ices
are served as refreshments. II they
are poor coffee and fruits are offered,
but the entertainment is much the
! same. The ladies talk and laugh and
cat until they are ready to leave.
Another great event is the baby's
first bath. This happens when he is
eight days old, and his mother and her
friends may have a bath. too, ii they
wish. The baby bathes first then his
mother and then the visitors. This
bath takes long time and all the time
slaves play sweet music and food is
served three or four times.-Portland

WAR SPECIALTIES AGAIN
CONSPICUOUS IN MARKET
Nev York Air Brake Ascends Two
Points to the New High Price of
9S-Baldwin Locomotive and
Pressed Steel Oar Also Rise
BY Associated Press,


New York, April 1.-THE so.calied
war specialties were again conspicuous
in the early stock dealings. New York
Air Brake assembled 2 points to the new
high price of 9S, while American Lo-
comotive was inclined to react, falling
back ~ points to SIS on opening sales
of 1900 shares. Baldwin Locomotive
and Pressed Steel Car rose 8 to 5
points, and numerous other stocks in
this particular class, including Bethle-
hem Steel were higher by 1 to Q points.
Speculative favorites shared in the rise,
Reading, st. Paul and U. S. Steel gain,
ing a point each. Trading was very
active, but without the wild movements
of the preceding session.
To-day's two-hour session was accom-
panied by a further upward whirl of
prices. Virtually all the industrial
and equipment issues which are said to
have received war contracts added to
recent gains, overnight advances rang
ing from B to points. Almost the
sole exception was American Locomo-
tive, which fell back at the outset and.
though making partial recovery, failed
to come within striking distance of the
previous days high figure. U. s. Steel
was the real feature by reason of its
activity. 1t sold at 59T, new rec
ord for the current movement. Other
speculative favorites, including Read,
ing, st. Paul and Amalgamated, also
assembled to higher levels. The close
was dull, Bonds were firm.
