The Cordele dispatch. (Cordele, Ga.) 19??-1971, 1917-12-07

lized in 1914, the German military
authorities established new heavy ar
,ill2ry formations. Soon each artil-
cry regiment of the regular army
lad attached to it a reserve regiment
consisting Of four batteries of skill
I'd gunners, also battalion of four
batteries Of landweher, or second re-
jervists and, finally, a battalion of
our batteries formed from among the
bird reservists of landstrum. When
he arsenals and shell factories later
lad reached a higher level Of produc-
icn of guns and ammunition further
batteries were formed from among
he men of the Ersatz reserve. Since
the first year of the war large num-
bers of the younger recruits of the
Younger classes which have been call
ed out for service have been sent to
the artillery branch. By the end of
1916 the number of heavy batteries
had been multiplied more than five
times and in the course of 1917 further
additions have been made to the total.
OF the German big guns, 25 per cent
are long range cannon and the re-
mainder rs per cent howitzers. The
most numerous of their long range
guns are 4-inch, A IL inch, 5inch and
j-inch; but they possess also batter
les of S-7inch, 9-7-inch, 11-inch and Is
inch longrange guns, although these
are very few in number Their how
tiers are for the most part of 6-inch
calibe; but besides these they have
in line batteries of 11-inch, Pinch and
17-inch howitzers
Germany had not developed any lik-
ing for mountain guns before this war,
but she has been forced to change her
by the developments of the fighting,
in the Vosges, for instance, and now
has twenty batteries of mountain-guns,
six pieces of 3-inch calibre rapid-fire
to battery, and also has formed sew
eral batteries of 4-inch mountain how
tiers.
french artillery as well has been
development of this war, and the Ger
man army is now well provided with
weapons of various kinds for use in
the advanced lines. Its trench NOR
tars range in calibre from 3-inches to
lO-inches. Finally the small trench
cannon of IL inch, Pinch and IL
inch calibre have become very numer-
GUS in all sectors of the line.
The personnel Of the gunnery
branch of the German army has be-
come nearly as great in numbers as
that of the infantry.

VALUEOF AN
EXPERIENCED
MI RISE

The true value of Al experienced
nurse working aua5nz the cE tdran !,
the elementary department of our
Public and Parochial Schools cannot
be fully estimated, but will be in years
to come. The careful examination of
the children by an experienced nurse
who follows up the child tothe home
and talks with the mother of the child
who may be ignorant of existing all
ments and conditions, is aided by the
Nurse to understand how to correct
the conditions, when otherwise she
would continue in ignorance of the trou
bIe Miss Rasmussen is sent here by
the State Authorities and her salary
is provided for by the Ladies Of the
Federation in Grand Rapids, and she
is now in our midst doing an excellent
work The ladies of the Federation
are entitled to great credit for the in
terest thus taken and manifested in
the needy condition of our children.
Much good will result therefrom. They
have provided the children with tooth
brushes, now they have interested all
the dentists in our city to hold free
clinics in the interest of the children
who cannot we'll afford to pay for. the
same. In this manner the children are
receiving healthful service that they
could notobtain otherwise. The chill
dren are taught the value of the care
of the teeth as well as their bodies,
what to do, and what not to do, to add
to their health conditions. This work
is not only commendable on the part
of the ladies of the Federation, the To-
cal dentists, and the experienced Nurse
but the community, and future genera
tions are benefited thereby.
The magnitude of this work and the
favorable results therefrom is very
little understood except by few. It's
a great work and we hope the ladies
and dentists will not be discouraged
in keeping it up.
