Allies Began Attack 80
Yards From Front Line
of Germans in France
BY associated Press

London, Oct. 1.-Relatives and
friends of British soldiers who have
taken part in the fierce fighting of
the past few days in Northern France
have begun to receive letters from the
fortunate ones who were unscathed
through the attacks, while the cas-
ualty lists of those who met with dis
aster are being collected at the war
office and their relatives notified.
Further consignments of wounded
arrived at London at midnight A
picturesque story of the fighting at
Hooge was told by one of these men.

arm.
Because we took trenches and
didn't hold them" he said, don't i'm
ag1ne there was anything amiss at
Hooge. All is going we'll and if there
had been no such thing as machine
guns we would have gone through the
whole German line and now be on
our way to Berlin. Those trenches
which we gaev up we can take again
and what is more we can hold them
when we want to do so.
'It is ridiculous to hear some talk
about our attack being a surprise to
the Germans. From dawn to even
ing the fighting was terrific. Our
brigade had known for days that we
were on the eve of a big movement
and the Germans also were expecting
it.
1.-The only orders remembered were

I'VE jumped the parapet without
any superfiuous motions and then like
a flash, the whole front moved for
ward STRAIGHT across the eipbfy va ard @
which separated us from the enemy's
front trenches. Then it was bayonet
work and after an incredibly short
time we were fighting fiercely between
the second and third line of German
trenches"

Test Five-Tone Whistle
For P. R. R. Locomotives

The five-toned whistle for locomo-
tives now on trial on the Pennsylvania
railroad is the result of considerable
experimental work 1t was developed
in the Office of the mechanical engi-
neer and such Whistles as are now on
trial were built. adjusted, tuned and
tested in the shop under the super
vision of T. D. Williams, of Juniata
shops.
The present standard whistle at
times has a very disagreeable tone,
due to lack of balance and to over
blowing, and the five-tone whistle was
designed to overcome this. The eX-
periments have been in progress for
about a year.

turers were banking too heavily on the results OF
the very first years advertising. They were plan
ming heavy increase in output to take care OF
immediate demand They were looking at adver-
tising solely immediate sales force rather
than as business builder. For this reason we
advised that the whole idea of advertising be
dropped, because an expectation of immediate
success the wrong way to begin. Advertising
started on such basis usually doesn't last
We made the following statement: I'VE earn
estly recommend that you never turn on the power
of publicity unless you do it with determination
never to turn it off again."
The manufacturers themselves soon saw the
wisdom of this, and the advertising finally
launched as permanent feature of the business
The results of the first few weeks perhaps
best summed up in the following statement made
to us on March 10Th by the president of the
Goodell-Pratt Company:
"This campaign was planned with a view of
creating a consumer demand and
particularly desrous that this should come to us
through regular hardware trade channels. We

regular hardware merchant, preferring to have
the interest manifest itself wholly through the
merchant.

no more difficult than this looked to be two years
ago.
