Berne.-A remarkable spying feat
was executed by Swiss citizen named
Luginbuhl. He succeeded In getting
paid from both sides, the French as
well a. the Germans. receiving profit
able favors from both. and finally
landed in the meshes Of Swiss law.
Luginbuhl was one Of twenty-one de-
PENDANTS in a celebrated espionage
case Just concluded in q local court.
With one exception all were found
guilty. including Luginbuhl. Sentence
was deferred.
Luginbuhl was anxious to buy wool
waste in France. He wanted to sell
II in Germany where he could get an
immense price fo1 It. To get the wool
out Of France Luginbuhl had to obtain
permission from the French authori-
ties. He got into touch with French
agents and spies doing business In
Switzerland, who afterward were his
codefendants In the trial. and upon his
promise that he would make a trip
into Germany, find out certain things
the French spies were anxious to know
and report back, he would obtain per-

hammer, which forms a. part Of the
tool equipment Of every automobile, ia
one of the first things the amateur
automobile repair man must learn
when working around the engine, says
q writer in the current issue Of Amer
lean Motorist. With this hammer he
can do more damage In q moment
than q good man can repair in a week.
His first inclination IL to use this form
Of persuasion ON any and every re-
fractory part, and this II a desire
which should be overcome.
Not only should the hammer itself
not be used on any metal parts with.
out the Intervention Of q block Of
wood to protect the surface. but care
must be exercised to avoid hitting the
other parts through the inaccuracy Of
aim that distinguishes the unskilled
wielder Of this tool.
A poorly aimed blow that misses its
target and lands on one Of the valve
push rods or similarly vulnerable parts
with any degree Of force is apt to cause
trouble Of an expensive nature.
