Practice Comes Later.
1T always makes them laugh" said
the officer commanding. land they get
the theory Later on they'll have the
practice against the real boche."
The American Army has ordered a
number OF these miniature ranges for
the use of our own budding gunners.
Such things may seem childish in the
telling, but they are of infinite value.
The young officer is well up on book
theory usually. but when he can work
out his problem IN this fashion he takes
a greater interest in it than il he were
to conflne himself to books It has a
very practical worth, too, for the range
is drawn absolutely to scale, and the
hidden operator moves sparker and oil
cup accurately, SO that the best shots
get the best results.
They can see what they are doing"
one officer explained. sit is different on
the front. There one has to wait until
the next day. when the aerial photo
graphs have been developed. Those
photographs are what the artilleryman
Is alone interested in. He waits for
them even more anxiously than for the
word that he has been granted leave"
All the actual practice is on the min
iature ranges. but the big guns are
here for all that. They are under
sheds, protected from the weather and
painted and polished to the last de-
gree. On the front gun is half mud
and half camouhage. but the officer
commanding finds his men work with
piece rather than some rugged veteran
that has seen service, and shows It.
These guns are taken down and put
together again until their future mas
ters know the meaning Of the most In
significant part. Isl

Expenditure Of $SOO,OOO Between
PRINCETON And Central
City, Ky.

Extensive improvements on the
Illinois Central railroad between
Princeton and Central City and
the construction of a short line
direct from Dawson Springs to
Providence, Kyo are ready to
begin, according to official an
nouncements made here today.
An appropriation of $4,000 for
the work has been made, but it
is belived that before it is com.
pleted considerably over a mil
lion dollars will have been ex-
pended.
Between Princeton and Cen
tral City, distance of 55 miles
grades will be reduced curves
will be Strengthened and there
will be double tracking, The
principal curves elimination will
throw the railroad about a quarter
u . mile south of the present
line at Dawson Springs it is said.
The construction of a railroad
from Dawson Springs to Pro-
vidence distance of bout do
miles will save the Illinois Gen.
trail many miles of road in hand
ling coal. At present it is nec-
essary to haul from Dawson via
Princeton and Wheatcroft, the
being between rs and
so miles.
