WHAT ARE THEY SAYlNG?--
Is the one important question at the
Barborka jewelry store, which is at
tracing the attention Of the people IN
this community at present. A picture
OF two ladies leaning over chest iof
silver apparently talking over its mer-
it's. is on display in the window OF the
J. v. Barborka store. Perhaps one OF
the girls is telling her friend how de-
lighted she is with this, her best we'd
ding present, and possibly her friend
is explaining the beautiful Alvin de-
sign and wishing that she were as
lucky. To the person who answers in
fifty words just what the two beautl-
full girls are saying in the best man
ner will be awarded fine chest OF
Alvin silver and in addition to the
chest of silver now on display in the
BarbOrka window a grand prize chest.
containing 20S pieces OF fiat ware,
valued at 1925, will be awarded to the
person who gives the most clever an
swer, chosen from the total number
received by all jewelers.. 1t costs alb
solutely nothing to enter this contest
and possibly some one right here in
Denison will win the grand prize chest
of silver. The contest is open until
October Both Call at Barborka's and

The carriers make no less than
100000 mail deliveries a year, for
this is the total deliveries going out

Rural mail carriers working out of
the Topeka office, travel jointly a dis

carriers, of course, are not so heavy

game. Everyone takes part and at
times the navy is brought in to help
work out a different problem. The
theoretical work is done during the
winter when the officers meet daily
and work out what they determine as
the best defense in case the harbor is
threatened with a certain sort of at
tack. In the summer the attack and
the defense are actually made and
the question as to the feasibility of
the plans is ascertained.
The war game is a real game and is
played on real game board very
much the same as the parlor games
that used to be popular The boards
are usually sixty by forty feet and are
made as exact miniature reproduce
tions of the harbor which is to be at
tackled. The batteries, towers. search
lights and all other equipment of the
harbor defense are represented also in
miniature Foreign fleets which are
to attack are represented by small
models of actual fighting ships ana
each PLAYER at the game is furnished
with a set of plans and specifications
of the fighting equipment of each
vessel.
Either Night or Day.
Either night or day attack can be
made ana in case of the former, the
room is darkened and the players rep
resenting the land forces use the small
searchliShts to locate the attacking
an actual night attack on their fort
Every effort is MADE to exactly re-
produce the conditions surrounding a
real engagement and TO eliminate as
far as possible any guess work.
1t often takes weeks to work out
a problem because the result of each
of the movements has to be figured
out mathematically- The ability of
each battery to inflict damage on the
fleet any of its component parts
and vice versa. The amount of dam
age that any of the ships can do to
the land batteries depends upon the
position of the ships and the range
at which the shells are thrown. In
practice, the wind, tide and the con-
dition of the atmosphere at the time
the gun is fired have to be taken into
consideration For the purpose of the
game these conditions are announced
in advance just as ground rules are
adopted in a baseball game.
1t is during the target practice sea-
son, which is generally early in the
summer that the attacks by water
are worked out. Targets then take
the place of the attacking fleet and
the officers see for themselves just
what damage they y ould have in
hicted on the ships maneuvering as

WAR IN PEACE
BY u. S. ARMY
Minnie Battles Are Fought on
a Big Board.
Sham Battles Carried On With
a Friendly Enemy.
NAVY CALLED IN At TIMES
Attacks and DefenseS by Night
and Day Played.
Coast Artillery Trained in
Every Branch of Service.
Interesting Description by E. D.
Keilman, TOpekan.
(By E. D. Keilman.)


Even in peace there is war for the
officers and men attached to the
coast defenses of the United States
Attacks ana counter-attacks both Oh
land and sea are being made on the
batteries which defend the important
harbOrs of the country, and neither
the officers or men are ever entirely
sure just what they will be doing the
next week.
Instead of trying to see how good
our coast defenses are, the men who
have the future of this branch of the
army in their hands are trying to see
where the faults lie. What is more
they are finding them too. Their
method is practical. European coun-
tries are locating their weak spots
when their enemies break through
them The Coast Artillery corps of
the United States has hit upon the
plan of having friendly enemy break
through at those weak spots.
"Kriegspiel," the Germans call it.
The coast artillery calls it the war
