Fortunes From the War


 Many years will elapse ere some trades and businesses recover if they ever do recover. from the effects of this devast- ating war. In other trades-those which are supplying the materials require for the war-fortunes are being made every day. The stoppage of sport-cricket, foot ball. racing, etc.-has resulted in the makers of sporting requisites losing near ly all their trade. Few people buy such luxuries as jewelry nowadays The cloth ing and drapery trades have been hard hit and the glass and pottery trades are seriously affected.
 On the other hand. many manufacturers who formerly made articles of luxury have adapted their works to necessary goods. Motor-car manufacturers have reaped a harvest by concentrating their attention on war vehicles instead of pri- vate cars. and the boom in military mo- tor-driven vehicles is such that new works are being erected as rapidly as possible
 People concerned in the making of sand bags, too, are reaping rich rewards, for 100000 are required for the British forces every month, while the demand for army clothing and boots has kept the woolen trade working at high pressure and caused

 Shortly after Europe burst into flames, figuratively speaking, MT Weigle went on his mission to show the United States just what was go- ing on. across the water On this eX- petition the photographer knew ex- actly what conditions were and he went fully equipped. In his kit was a specially made war camera, with a telescopic lens.i so constructed that events from distance are brought right before ones eyes. Bursting shells of the 42-centimeter guns, troops, charging, trench warfare, battles in the air, all are brought close to the au- dience.
 HermlSSlOn was granted Olllcially py high German and Austrian officials to MT. Weigle to accompany the Austro- German armies on the condition that one-half the proceeds from the pictures be given to the blinded and crippled soldiers fund. He accompanied the mighty Teuton hosts into three distinct theatres of war. On the east he went to Poland and Galicia. On the west he accompanied the Austrian and Ger man forces to the French lines. Or the south he sealed the dizzy heights of the picturesque Tyrolean Alps ane took the battles in the mountains.
 Forty-two centimeter guns are .s1owr in action bursting into flame, digging holes i'm Qualifications 22 feet wide an, 30 feet deep Here also are seen al the thrills of trench and open war fare
