Treasurer Klingensmith and a corps
of fifty extra clerks busy. for the last
thirty days.
A special department was first es-
tablished at the Ford plant to care
for the distribution of the SIS 5.000,0 900.
The first big job was in the filling in
Of the checks themselves. For weeks
the clerks were engaged in this work
on typewriters. filling In the checks $
at the rate OF about 10000. day. The
names of the Ford profit-sharers and
their aidresses--for the checks serve
as the superscription on the OPEN
face envelopes-were put in on the
sheets of ten each.

BOMBS NICKNAMED
BY BRITISH SOLDIERS

LONDON. Aug 2S.-The various kinds
OF bombs now being used in France and
Flanders are described by an English
officer in a letter from the front. There
are, he says. four main types-the hair
brush.'' the cricket ball" the police
mans club and the "iam-tin." Bomb
thrC wers are referred to in trench slang
as "anarchists.'
The hair brush" he explains, lis
very like the ordinary hair brush. ex-
ccpt that the bristles are replaced by a
solid block of high explosive. The DO
licemans truncheon has gay streamers
of tape tied to its tail to insure that
1t falls to the ground nose downward.
Beth these bombs explode on impact,
and it is inadvisablc to knock them
gainst anything-say the back of the
tire hCh-When throwing them.
The cricket ball works like a time
frse. The removal OF a certain pin re-
leases a spring. which lights an interno
fuse timed TO explode the bomb in Ave
seconds. You take the bomb in your
right hand. remove the pin, and cast
the thing madly from you The iam-tin
variety appeals more particularly TO the
sportsman, as the element Of chance
enters largely into its successful use
II Is timed to explode about ten sec
onds after the lighting of the fuse. II
is, therefore. unwise to throw II TOO
soon, as there would be ample time FOR
your opponent to pick 1t up and throw
1t back. On the other hand. il is unwise
10 nolc on too long. as the fuse is nm
certain in it's action and is given r.

Mr.. Moore at once intervened and
