BEHIND BRITISH LINES IN
FRANCE, Nov. 24.-There are times
when it seems as if the whole of the
front slept as if the country for miles
on either side of the SCARED trench
zone had been abandoned by men.
Complete silence reigns, and no sign
of movement can be detected in any
direction. But it is just at these times
that watchfulness is at its keenest,
and more is learned of the enemy and
his plans than in periods of noisier
activity.
Observation of the enemy's line and
of the country behind it is the first
necessity of war. Upon the evidence

gether the reports of a thousand OBJ

les heralds a bombardment. Consid-
cradle movement behind the enemy
lines suggests the relief of a division.
1t is by continual consideration OF
such things as these that comman-
der deduces the plans of his oppo-
nent.
The ordinary everyday observation
is embraced under three main heads,
airplanes. Ground observation is work
which engages thousands of trained
soldiers every day of the year, and
II is the work of the men in these
ground observation posts to keep a mi
croscopic lookout over the enemy's
front-line trench system and its i'm
mediate vicinity. The work OF the
balloons and airplanes is generally
devoted to the enemy's artillery and
back areas. Conditions of ground OBJ
servation vary from those of a roomy
out in the side of a hill on a summer
day, to those of tall chimney, swing
ing through several feet in a storm
of sleet with hostile battery contin-
uously trying to level the chimney
with a well-aimed shot. The observer
has his maps, his glasses, his note
book and a telephone.

withered by gas, covered with broad
masses of rusty wire. Beyond this
runs the irregular line of the hostile
front parapet. and behind this again
the complicated network, that is the
mass of enemy support, reserve and
communication trenches. In the back
ground stretches the enemy's reward
territory. dotted with ruined farms,
bare patches of wood and lines OF
tree stumps that mark a road. There
is no sign of movement save for
smoking chimney or the white steam
of a moving train, far away in the
distance.
But in reality things are happening
all the time, if one can only see them.
Suddenly a particular point in weed
grown field catches the eye. Some
thing has moved, and a patient watch
ing through the telescope reveals a
regular succession of spadefuls Of
earth being thrown from below the
surface A new communication trench
is being dug, and daily watching will
reveal the direction it is taking.
Speck Becomes Gun
A morning inspection of the hostile
parapet reveals a speck of light color
that was not there the day before.
The speck seems to have grown dur
ing the night as each successive dawn
allows it to be seen; it is perhaps a
new machine emplacement. Some
thing that looks like a hedge appears
one morning across what was an open
field the previous night; it must be
a screen to hide something, and pro-
longed study may discover what that
is.
The ground observers work is just
enc drop in the streams of intelligence
that flow increasingly along thousands
of channels to the central brain that
must determine their combined mean

 Not Oppose Dowell for Office

Montgomery, December 5.-(Special) Miles C. Allgood, state auditor since 1915, announced his candidacy for state commissioner of agriculture and industries Wednesday afternoon, a po- sition which will be vacated by James A. Wade in January, 1919. MT. All good has been a prominent figure in Alabama politics since 1910 when he was in the race for state auditor. He was elected in 1914 and prior to this time was connected with the federal farm demonstration work in Alabama.
 Montgomery, December 5.-(Special) Reports became so general throughout Alabama Wednesday that James A. Wade, commissioner of agriculture, would oppose Spright Dowell for state superintendent of education that Mr. Wade declared he had no intention of seeking the office. "When 1 made my last campaign I said a farmer should hold farmers job and a teacher a teachers job" said Commissions Wade. T still hold to this statement. While l have taught school in my life it was several years ago and do not hold a certificate in Alabama It
 is not my intention to enter any po- litical campaign until I have assisted in the spring campaign for better and more crops in Alabama.

Friday Medical Examina- ton Day Fundamental Aim of Week Just Clos
 ing Is Educational

Sunday. December 9, IS Tuberculosis Day. and will be the continuation of the tuberculosis week campaign. with special emphasis on the part of the churches and religious bodies engaged in public health work Tuberculosis suday is an unde- nomination and nonsectarian move ment, and will this year reach people of every creed.

 Friday, December T. has been named modern health crusade day and will be devote to interesting the chilren through the schools in the tuberculosis and public health movement The children will be instructed in personal hygiene and will be shown how they can raise the health standards of their communities.
 The United States has recognized tu- berculosis as the most serious disease problem that has confronted the Amer ican people for the past 10 years and tu- berculosis week has been made national.
