Measurements of Shell

(By Associated Press,

NEW YORK, June Careful mea-
surements OF two holes made by a
single shell in passing through two
awnings in a Paris factory, enabled
French artillery officers to locate the
great German long range guns by a
feat of mathematics. To Chester NJ.
Wright, a member of the American
labor mission, which has just returned
from Europe, French officers explained
how the direction and distance of the
guns was, figured from data obtained
from the two shell holes.
The two awnings were several feet
apart. and the relation of one to the
other gave perfect data on the course
which the shell had taken as 1t ap-
preached the earth. After the apera-
lures had been measured to the one
thousandth part of an inch and the
direction of the shells fall exactly es-
tablished, the earlier career OF the
she'll became problem on paper
BY appl, ing the laws governing the
flight of projectiles, and allowing for
the wind, the state OF the atmosphere
and other considerations, French ar
tillery officers were able to follow
back the course Of the shell to the
mouth of the cannon in the forest of
st. Gobain after which it was speed
ly demolished by French artillery.

The people of the United States,
in defense Of the Republic and the
principles upon which this nation
was founded, are taking their part
in the world war with no lust for
power and no thought of financial
or territorial gain.
The issues at stake involve the
moral ideals and conception of JUS
tice and liberty, the protection Of
the innocent and helpless, the
sancity OF womanhood and home,
freedom of opportunity for all men
and the assurance of the safety Of
civilization and progress to all ma
lions great and small.
American business without hest
tation has pledged its full and un-
qualified support in the prosecu-
ton of the war until Prussianism is
utterly destroyed. With this in
mind the Richmond Commercial
club urges all manufacturers, job
bers, retailers and citizens to sup
port the w. S. S. campaign in a
very tangible way.
Wayne Township must have
united effort if it is to purchase it's
quota before Monday evening, June

nation another portion of the finan-
cial resource you command on Mon
day, June 3rd.

A consul, the Russian was not sure
whether he was a Swiss or Spaniard

Germans had opportunity to practice
many injustices.

bread. They were told bread wal
