MASON TELLS WHAT
WAR MOVES mean

New York. Oct. 29.--The union OF
Germans and Bulgarians In the
northeastern corner OF Serbia con-
Germs Great Britain more than It does
Serbia. The junction was effected.
not TO threaten Serbia. but to estab-
lish quick route for supplying muni-
tions to Germany's impoverished ally,
Turkey.
These munitions. however, must
move over 80 miles OF mountain high
ways In Serbia and 100 miles Of Bull
garian roads before they reach the
Orient railway. Such move can
only be countered by rapid con-
centration Of the allies either in Bull
garia or Turkey. And the Germans
will be, able to equip the idle Turks
with needed supplies unless the allies
cut their communications
Hence the challenge to the allies
is serious. Its effect on Greece and
Roumania can not be a source of sat
isfaction to the allies.

SOLDIERS AND CANES.
EnsIish Military Men Must Not Go Out
Walking Empty Handed.

Walking Empty Handed.
It is one Of the regulations Of the
British army that every soldier when
walking out must carry in his hand
stick In order to preserve soldierly
appearance and prevent anything like
slouching in his gait.
This rule applies TO all ranks, and
should any one seek to evade 1t be

sentry at the barrack gate or entrance
to camp.
Privates generally carry light canes
or ''swagger sticks" noncommissioned
officers fairly stout sticks. and officers
invariably 60 In for the more expensive
kind. II Is a question that has often
been asked. Who first suggested the
idea? But nobody seems to know.
From the earliest times drill ser
geants and drum majors have carried
sticks. and the fashion may have come
from that fact. Soldiers as a rule buy
their own sticks. but In one or two reg
Iments a recruit Is presented with one
when he gets his uniform. n this gets
lost. however. he has to buy the next
and subsequent ones.
