CAVALRY OF LESS MOMENT
Its Use as In Former Wars Has Been
Greatly curtailed In Pres
ent Conflict.

1t is perhaps too much to say that
the cavalry has ceased to be the eyes
Of the army, but 1t Is certainly true
that its role in this respect has great.
ly diminished. OF its role in battle
1t appears that on one occasion bri-
gade or a division of English cavalry
was effectively used at critical point
during the retreat through Belgium
and northern France In the first weeks
of the war; but SO far as the public
accounts inform US the part played by
uhlans, Cossacks. chasseurs, lancers,
hussars and dragons Is almost insig-
nificant in comparison with previous
wars.
1t does not appear that the practice
of using cavalry as mounted infantry
fighting on foot, or for the purpose of
making raids around the enemy's
rear, both of which were carried to
such degree of perfection during the
Civil war. has at any time been made
use of during the present war.
1t would seem, therefore, as II the
cavalry arm was much less necessary
to an army now than hitherto. n is
another case Of the animal giving
place to machine, which is SO char.
acteristic Of the present age, in war
as we'll as in peace.-Maj Gen. Fran.

He went back to his work. With
fierce. dogged energy he pulled away
the deepr rooted weeds and brought a
pathetic look OF care and order into his
corner Of the wilderness. For a mo-

Goetz had tended. The bald yet elo-

1t to him.
"She sent you this-in token Of re-

He took her hand and kissed it.
