Mont Saint Flo, Department of Pas de Calais, F'rance.-(Delayed in trans mission) Dec. 30.-Gernaan artillery today again bombarded at long range 18th century abbey here, but without doing great damage.
 Night attacks have become the sole method of making advances in this underground war as all attempts to assault the positions in the daytime fail before the terrible rifle and ma chine gun fire.
 When night falls the artillery usual Iy ceases fire and all becomes mo-
 nentarily silent. Then begins the task of relieving the men in the dug outs. Companies and batta1ions which are about to take a, turn on the firing line warily approach the serpentine parallels leading to the advanced trenches.
 The first platoon advances and makes it's way through the zigzag sunken heath, to 8 trench out of which the soldiers, who have been there in most cases 48 hours, make an exit covered with mud from hear to foot.
 Ambulance men follow out of the ditches with the wounded borne on their shoulders as stretchers are una ble to pass through the narrow para1- lels. Shortly after the operation of relief has been completed the new occupants of the trenches who have been refreshed by rest in the rear, 1 start a. movement.
 A scouting party, generally compos- led of five or six volunteers, leaves
 the trench to reconnointer. Each man l is armed with 8 revolver and a rifle,
 a bayonet and pair of shears. ICreeping flat they proceed in a direct l line towards the German trenches
 their movements being as slow and as
 silent as possible because the slight
 est noise brings forth fusillade o1 bullets.
 1 The men make their wills and hand
 them to their comrades before start ing on daring exploit as it is likely that some of the soldiers will never return. Scouts often succeed in eyad- ing the German sentinels and cut wire ientrenchments in front of the Ger 1 man trenches thus preparing the way for a general atta c1r before dawn Those left of them who return to the allies trenches make a report of the pered command passes along and g lcompany chambers out and makes its
 way crouchingIy in an advance. Il Ithe company reaches the vicinity oa the German position without discovery and before the opposing machine guI can be brought into place the mer leap into and capture the trench al
 the point of the bayonet.
 I When prisoners are taken by the 1 French they are grouped under 2 guard at one end of the trench while half of the attacking force with en Iearthen shelter at the rear of tn, I lcaptureds trench and consolidates tn, l position against a possible countel attack The other half of the fore, "opens fire on the Germans in the mex
 line of trenches.

1. ASKED TO MAKE
 OWN WAR MUNITIONS
Council for Peace in Resolu- ton Hits at Private "Anmu- milton Ring" in America.

Washington Jan. IT am going to pray to the God of my fathers to give the Democratic party sense enough to insert a plank in the platform pro- |yiding for greater naval and army strength, and to add an increased in- come tax and inheritance tax to pay for the extra armament declared Congressman Keating of Colorado, in opposing the manufacture of war supplies by private parties, the dis clssfon of which at the Public Library recently resulted in the passage of a resolution demanding the exclusive government manufacture of all muni- tions of war.
 The Christmas War Council for Peace held the meeting and the speak CTS were Congressman Clyde Taven- ner of Illinois who criticised General Crozier, head of the Bureau of Ord nance, of the War Department; Miss Janet Richards, who advocated a
 weekly forum in Washington for the
 discussion or problems of civilization,
 and MT. Heating, who supported Con gressnaan Tavenners views.
 The resolution declared private profit l in the manufacture of war supplies was the real force behind the sys- ternatic propaganda carried on | throughout the country in behalf of
 increased armament. The resolution petitioned the House Military Affairs iCornmittee to report favorabIy the | Crosser bill, which provides that af- ter July I, 1920, all war munitions
 shall be manufactured solely by the
 War Department
 [ That the Federal government had f.been nuIctedl out of $50. 900, GOO in ex- tcessive profits in the last 1T years by Ef'the ammunition ring" was the dec Elaration made by Congressman Tav- tenner. Asserting that General Crozier was opposed to government manufac- l tJFre of munitions of war; Mir Taven-
 ner said that Crozier had made it diff Ef1cult for him to procure any facts as [ to the private profit in this class o1
 supplies.
 F. A general discussion of the subject
 was participated in by Mrs. John Jay White, Mrs. Jessie Hardy Stubbs, Miss
 Helen Summer. Prof. William Coleman Gilson Gardner, A. B. Johnson, and Judson, King. who presided.

CARE OF THE EYES.


 It is undoubtedly true that we 60 moi take sufficient care of our eyes. The eye is too delicate an organ' however. to be subjected to haphaz- ard treatment. A sudden change from vary bright light to darkness should be avoided, and if the eyes are weak the prevailing color in the room Tn which one spends most of the tune should be some tint that IS helpTui to the eyesig.ht Do not read while Wins. down. when rocking or when in a car. Do not use the eyes before breakfast, and do not read or sew in the sun. but let a good, strong light fall over your right shoulder Hold whatever you read on a level with the eyes and do not bend over your book or paper.
 Ones eyes should be kept clean and immediate attention should De paid to any inflammation. It is gross careIessness to neglect eyes that are reddened by a cold or made blood shot bv particles of foreign matter. A very simple and harmless method of washing the eye is to use 8 small glass eye cup. Place it over the eye, 1 drop the head back and let the wa ter fall upon the eyebalI, thus cleans ing it of the particles of dust Which have gathered there.
 Uhe clear water for this cup bath. One teaspoonfuI of boracic acid add ed to a cup of water that has been boiled and allowed to cool is excel lent for sore or inflan1ed eyes and l eyelids.
