WARSAW, Aug. S.-(By MaiD-
Small arms and bullets are playing
no role in the present war. The rifle
is the infantryman's toy. The infan-
tryman does not fight When the big
guns have finished the sinfantryman
merely scrambles into the trenches
they have won and occupies them"
This is the statement of Surgeon
Major Leshintseff. who has just re-
turned from the scene Of the big bat
tie in Galicia.
Seven eighths of the wounds are
from shells, half of these from big
ealibre shells and the rest from field
howitzers and field guns"
The shell that the Russians fear
is the Skoda 40 centimetre projectile
weighing $500 pounds. They are
known to the soldiers as "Pilseners. -
The normal projectory of the Skoda
gun is 4 1-2 miles high and in soft
ground the shells penetrate 20 feet
before exploding. The "Pilseners''
are howitzer guns and the projectiles
except in diameter do not represent
the famous Krupp AZ centimetre
shells, also used by the Germans.
Describing the effect Of a "pilsen-
er" shells the surgeon said:
TT kills everyone within $50 yard.

Men who are only a short distance
away are torn asunder Sometimes
only the clothes are stripped off. OF
men close by not a fragment remains
the clothes disappear and only small
metal articles are found. If the shell
is very near the explosion melts rifle
barrels as if they were struck by
lightning. Men who disappear in such
explosions are often reported miss.

BRIGHTER CHILDREN

Children are probably brighterto-day
than a generation ago-but are they
stronger That's grave question.
So many pinched faces, dulled eyes
and languid feelings make US wonder
if they will ever grow into robust,
healthy men and women.
If your children catch colds easily,
are tired when rising, lack healthy
color, or find studies difficult, give
them SCOTS Emulsion for one month
to enrich their blood and restore the
bodyforces to healthy action.
SCOTS Emulsion is used in private
schools. 1t is not a "patent medicine" /,
simply highly concentrated oil-food t,
without alcohol or harmful drugs. 1t
cannot harm; it improves blood; it bene-
fits lungs and strengthens the system.
