SOME EXPERT ADVICE.

This little editorial from the
Fourth Estate tells it's own story
can advertisement above all must
say something, and if it says
something and is put in the prop
er place, it will bring returns.
This is asserted by Nathaniel c.
Fowler. Jr.
/" Newspapers are the standard
media for advertising says Mr..
Fowler. 'They are the most eff
fective economical and profitable,
and I make this statement un-
qualifedly after an experience OF
thirty consecutive years. Tell
your story and tell it simply.
Simplicity is art understood by
the ignorant and appreciated by
the intelligent. -

shoots sixteen shots a minute,
and Is considered one Of the most
effective implements Of war Ol
the French army and navy. The
contract aggregates $zU,UUU,UUU,
and we have one year in which to
complete it. We are about ready
to begin work on the contract,
and ale completing the installing
of machinery in three of Our otIlo-
ings which have heretofore been
unoccupied. The shrapnel is iii
three parts. One part is the steel
shell, another the cartridge case
and the third the timefuse tube.
We will do all the work on the
shrapnel except placing in them
the explosives. That will be done
on the other side of the water. II
requires skilled mechanics to man
ufacture these shells, every part
Of which must be in perfect order
when delivered. We will be able
to turn out daily from $500 to
5000 completed shells by working
double turn. The contract is
enormous, Of course, and We are
very glad to get it, It means
much for the financial condition
of this section. We will manu-
facture only the one-size shrapnel
shells for the reason that our
present contract will keep us busy
for the next twelve months. -

i1kLL GAME S APPEAL.

Hall Game, distinguished Eng
llsh 2ovellSt, addresses an opel
letter to the president of tn,
United States which in effect calls
the American executive to task
for not plUnging the Americas
people into war on the side OF tht
allies. HIS argument amounts 70
criticism of Wood.ow Wilson :
attitude OF neutrality ana 1t Ur- Is
the American people to take sucn
stand as would certal9aI Iy drag
us into the war sooner or later.
The Game letter axes out a
strong case, from the STANDPOINT
OF the partisan Of the allies. No
loyal subject of King George
could read it without feeling his
pulse beat more quickly. 1t is d
patilOtIc utterance,' cO~ched Ill
the choicest and most forcefLl
English, written 'uy one OF the
aOleSt living masters OF the Eng
lish language.
But it is sentimental, ratner
than logical. 1t is not sentiment
al to Hall Games cDuntrymen,
for nothing is sentimental that
appeals to the spirit Of patriotism.
But it is sentimental rather than
logical to the people Of the Unit
Cd States, for in this war the
American people as a people pick
no patriotic favorites. They will
in time form their judgment ac-
cordine to the evidence, but they
viii not decide until the evidence
but they will not decide until the
evidence is all i'll.
President Wilson's attitude is
that the American people will not
pass Judgment as to who is right
ana who is wrong until the trib-
uHal Of history hears all the facts,
and by that time the war Will
have long since enaed and Tn,
t.testion Of who was right and
who was wrong will be of i'm
Portance only to the historian.
iaIl Game wants the president
ta condemn Germany for the in
vasion OF Belgium, for it's man
ner Of waging war, for its sub
marine attack on England and
fer going to war in the first place.
Being an advocate, Mr.. Caine s
business is to plead only the cause
OF his own country, and Uses al!
the arts Of the advocate pleadin-
a case before a jury.
The time has not come for the
American people to investigate
the cause Of this quarrel. The
competent witnesses are busy
and we could get no relia bic evi-
dence. Fart of us sympathize
with the Germans and Austrians
and part of us want the English,
French, Ri ssians and Serbians to
win. Therefore the Hall ,Caine
letter is gospel to some Of Us and
the opposite Of the gospel to 9th
ers. 1t influences us according
to our preconceived opinions, just
as the charge that the English
used dumdum bullets Influenced
Is; just as the defense that Bel
guim should have kept out ip-
stead of fighting influences Us
just as William Watson's poetic
appeal influenced us; just as the
3 npeals and the invective of the
German poets and orators affect
IS. This county is keeping in
he middle Of the road until the
row is over. Then there will be
no objection to our diplomats

,HRAPNEL OF THE ALLIES.

Some idea Of the enormous
amount of ammunition being used
by the allies may be gained from
he amount of shrapnel being
manufactured in this country for
Them. Russia is prObab bly, manu-
Featuring most of its own ammu-
hilton, and England, and France
Ire doubtless keeping their fac
tories running at full capacity. In
addition to the shrapnel being
burned out in England and
France, most Of the great steel
manufacturing companies in the
United States have laroe orders
for shrapnel. In the supply trade
news of the current number Of
he Railway Age Gazette is the
following:
The American Locomotive COM
pany, which has been negotiating
For some time for a large contract
FOR shrapnel, is now supposed to
have closed contracts with the
Russian government for shrapnel
bggregating $65, 100000 in value.
The company has purchased $780,
BOO of the special machinery
which will be necessary. and has
had options on 100000 worth
more of such machinery for seve-
ral weeks.
The Firth Sterling Steel COM
pany, McKeesport, Pa, is rul'nln"
double time on the manufacture
IF shrapnel shells, turning out
about $500 daily, and the Ma
I1onal Tube company, the Pressed
Steel Car company and a number
of other companies in the Pitts
rnrgh district are also said TO be
.urning out from 1000 to $500
,hrspnel, each, daily. The Stand
,rl Steel Car company Is about
10 start work on a large order
for shells.
The Lackawanna Steel company
has closed contracts for delivery
10 the allies of $4,000 tons Of
,hrapnel steel. According to the
terms of the agreement 500 tons
must be shipped every ten days.
It has been reported that This
since the beginning OF
he war has received orders for
100000 to 100000 tons of shrap-
,el. the total value of these orders
,aing estimated at from $22 2,oOO.-
)00 to $27 900. 900. The Carnegie
Steel company and the Crucrble
Steel company of America have
lso obtained large orders for
hrapnel steel.
IN the hallway Age Gazette OF
