ODD PARAPHERNALIA OF WAR

The industrial aspects of modern
war have become so many that it
is near impossible to be surprised
at any development in this direction.
A curious illustration of the differ
ences between the old kind Of war
and the new has been brought close
to Washingtonians recently.
Out at Rockville, Md, a contract
ing concern engaged to build a
sewerage system for the village. In
stead of hiring some hundreds of la
borers to dig bitches all over the
place, this concern brought in a
huge ditch-digging machine that has
recently been perfected by Chica-
60 concern. 1t is operated by a
seventy-horsepower gasolene motor
which actuates the powerful mechan-
ism that digs the ditch at an un-
believable rate. This single ma
chine, it is said, will dig in a day
1000 feet of trench ten feet deep,
two feet wide.
After the machine got at work
somebody saw it and wondered why
soldiers in the field should dig
trenches, when one of these monsters
could scrape out in a day trench
enough to protect a regiment.
"Somebody" mentioned the idea to
the military attache in Washington
Of one of the warning nations. He
promptly saw the point, went to see
the machine work, and then started
out to find out how fast those ma
chimes could be turned out for his
government!
In war in which the trench is serv-
ing a purpose never before imagined,
one can discern in this incident the
possibility of American digging ma
chimes and American gasolene dig
ging one side into q victory. The
machines are declared to be abso-
lutely ideal for work back of the
front lines, preparing entertainments
without the necessity of withdraw
ing men from the fighting front, get
ting them ready in record time, and
saving immensely in the strain i'm
posed on the men who, under the
old pick-and-shovel tactics, must dc
both the digging and the fighting
The American digging machine may
yet be as big factor in the war as
the American motor truck.

THE EXCESSES OF HATRED

1t is long, long way from the
stories of enemy soldiers establish
ing an informal truce on Christmas
Day, meeting in the death zone be-
tween the lines of trenches and join
ing in the same songs, to these
newer tales of cruelty to prisoners.
Berlin sends a seemingly official
story that the sentence of death is
confirmed against a British private
who. held prisoner, struck a German
non-commissioned officer. It is hard
to believe that the Emperor, to
whom appeal may yet be taken, will
permit such a grossly inhuman de-
cree to be executed.
Never in modern times has the
hatred which war engenders become
vicious sn-offieiat. so intense. The

STRIKING CONTRASTS
At MOTET CONCERT
Teutonic Austerity and Slavic
PIaintiveness Represented in
Program.

Under the direction of Otto r. Simon,
the Motet Choral Society gave its
spring concert at the Memorial Conti-
mental Hall last night Although two
other music organizations had chosen
the same evening for their spring con-
cert, the house was we'll filled.
Ihe program as a whole presented a
striking contrast of Teutonic austerity
and Slavic plaintiveness. Bach's stir
ring motet, "Sleepers, Awake" won the
attention of the audience with the OPEN
Ing number of the concert by its clear
cut execution and the eliminating ef-
fect of the crescendo at the close. A
group of interpretative songs from Is
rael In Egypt by Handel. showed an
interesting German Interpretation Of a
theme distinctly Semitic.
The spirit OF northern Europe was
represented by the four folk songs, the
Finnish Sorrow" Slovak "Heartache,"
and Russian Boat Song" and I'm the
Fields The splendid chorale from
Die Meistersinger" closed the concert
