found in zoology and quickened into
life. So far 1t is the one invention
or development which illustrates not
only the magnitude of the war but
the necessity for fighting the battles
by new strategy and by new methods.
That Is what Ericsson did with his
Monitor in 1867 And II is not improb-
able that the utilization of these weird.
homely, ,ungainly and yet easily maneu-
vered machines OF war. may actually
result in recasting the strategy of war
and the formation Of battle lines and
defenses.
One Of the features OF these tanks
to which military men refer with en-
thusiasm Is the inability of the great
guns of the Germans, which were
able to tear down in an instant mas
sive fortresses, to reach them. More
over, the tank guns are not neces-
sarily large, although they can be
made by slkillful handling very vicious
to an enemy who confronts them II
the Germans carried to deadly per-
lection the submarines, the English
seem to have matched and over
matched them with these land ma
chimes which for want Of . better
word are called, tanks.

ADOPT RESOLUTIONS

Directors or CnNmDcr Of Commerce
 Express Sorrow at Recent Death of
 Vice President White.
 At the meeting of the directors of the New Britain Chamber of Com merce yesterday afternoon, the fol- lowing resolutions were adopted on the death of Vice President Charles J. White:
 With sorrow we record the death of Charles J. White, Vice President of the New Britain Chamber of Con- merce, on the nineteenth day of Au- gust 1917.
 "In this Chamber he played an ac- tive part. He labored earnestly for it's development as he had for that of the organization which preceded it. He rejoiced ill it's successes, grieved over its failures and for it's re-organiza- ton was diligently working even while the hand of death was visibly upon him.
 "And this he did because he was true citizen. The city in which he lived was much more to him than place in which one might earn a liv- ing. Just as any true man looks upon his own country as something to love, to work for, to die for if need be--as this generation just begins to realize 80 does the true citizen regard his own city.
 "He was imbued with that idea, which not always understood, is nev- ertheless the real foundation of the work of the Chamber of Commerce, the idea namely: that enlightened self interest requires al the business forces of any city to see not only that all proper facilities are provided for the carrying on of their own busi- ness but that it is also equally impor- tant that the city itself should be equipped with all those conveniences, advantages and attractions necessary that all its inhabitants may live com- fortably, economically and happily "So believing, he saw in this Cham Der the most powerful instrument for the upbuilding of this city. Well will it be if we who mourn
 his loss shall see with his vision both
 the difficulty and the duty which , confront us and work with his faith and zeal for the upbuilding of the
 City of New Britain. In no way so well as this can we honor his memory.
 Tt is ordered that a copy of these minutes shall be spread upon our rec ords, and presented to his family "DIRECTORS OF THE NEW BRITAIN CHAM BER OF COMMERCE."

FIRST CHINESE AT
 LOCAL HIGH SCHOOL
William Chang, Native of Orient First of Race to Study at New
 Britain Institute.

The New Britain High school has added a new feature to the student body in the person of William Chang, "a son of old Nippon"
 Chang was born in the southern part of China, near Canton, in 1900, and is now 17 years old. He at- tended the primary schools in China, coming to this country first in 1911. When he first arrived in America, he entered the Hartford Grammar school, and from there he went to the Hart ford High. This is his first year in New Britain, and he is rated as a junior in the College Prep Course.
 Chang is a real sportsman and takes lively interest in athletics, particularly football, and is an earnest rooter for the New Britain High. In the track meet held last week he was entered in the 100 yards dash. He made close finish, being nosed out on the last five yards.
