Vegetables are not usually regarded
a subject for eloquence. But Sir
Charles Wakefield certainly attained
some fine flights recently on the pre-
sentatlon Of a basket of fruit and
vegetables to the lord mayor of Lon
don. The master Of the Gardeners
company first declared that the pos
session Of an allotment was an almost
certain test Of good citizenship, and,
growing alliterative In his enthusiasm,
said he saw more beauty In the potato
than In pansy, more lG~ellness In a
leek than In lily, more honor In Gull
uvating the humble cabbage than In
causing the cultured carnation to fur
Their displays Of pride. 1t Is to be
noted, however, that the delegation to
which Sir Charles acted as spokesman
presented the lady mayoress with a
bunch Of orchids and not of leeks such
as Sir Charles statements might have
led the lady to expect.

FIRST USE OF GAS IN WAR
In Crude Form That Weapon Was
Employed Centuries Before tho
Coming Of Christ.

The earliest use of deleterious gases
in siege warfare is recorded in the his
tory Of the Peloponnesian wars from
ADJ 4O4 b. G. During this struggle
between the Athenians and Spartans
and their respective allies the cities OF
Palatea and Delium were besieged.
Wood saturated with pitch and sui
phur was set on fire and burned under
the walls Of these cities in order to
generate choking and poisonous fumes.
which would stupefy the defenders
and make the task Of attacking forces
less difficult. Another form Of the
same method Of attack used about this
date was to fill caldron with molten
pitch, sulphur and burning charcoal,
and to blow the fumes with the aid of
a primitive form Of bellows and air.

heard in the wars of the middle ages.
was liquid, the composition Of which
is now unknown, that was spurted
through the air, chiefly in sea fights,
in order to set fire to the ships Of the
enemy, and it was used by the Byzan-
tine Greeks at the sieges of Constan-
tinople In the years 1851 and 1912.

INSECT POWDER GROWN HERE

The stuff was mystery. Beyond
the fact that it was of vegetable ma

V, AS a matter Of fact, 1T came from
Transcaucasia, where its production
was a very important industry For
centuries it had been widely used in
Aslatic countries, and the source OF
the material was a secret carefully
kept.
Eventually the secret was revealed
by an Armenian merchant, who, trav-

Later on, attempts were made to In

A footfall on the floor and pressure against the wall, by leaning, usually cause the contact of wires that drop bombs from above or spray death from the sides or underfoot.
 Wires have also been found con- nected with helmets, rifles or other articles, seemingly scattered care lessly about dugout--and each wire so connected as to set off enough bombs to wreck the immediate neigh borhood by the mere moving of one of these decoy objects.
 Americans, French and British have all run afoul of these camouflag- ed bombs and grenades left by the Hun in sort of "gone but not for gotten" spirit. Even time clocks have been set to fire explosives and wires have been sunk in cups of acid, to be slowly disintegrated and release a bomb.

HUNS SET TRAP FOR ALLIES IN
 LEAVING LINE
All Characters of Devilish Devices Left Behind
 When They Evacuate.
BY EDWARD M. THIERRY.

(Paris Correspondent of the News
 paper Enterprise Associaticn.)
 Parls, France, Sept. 10-Devilish inventions, everyone a hidden engine of death and typical of Hun frightful- ness ,are left behind by the Germans every time they retreat.
 Traps and snares are everywhere as .tfie Americans and their allies pehetrate the German lines.
 Commonest is the "gin"-a board set horizontally at the entrance to the dugout and having the appearance of seat. But the moment one sits down the board yields fraction of an inch just enough for a nail, hidden at the other end, to scratch a charge of explosives and set it off.
 Another trap is a board apparently thrown carelessly across a culvert as a foot bridge. But the moment one steps on it the thing tilts and two grenades, one connected with each end of the board, explode.
 Cunningly made devices have also been discovered for the setting off of dynamite hidden under floors, behind walls and above ceilings of dugouts.

RAZORBACKS
 ARE DOWN TO
 SEASONS WORK
Special to The Graphic.

Fayetteville, Ark. Sept. 2S.-"If colleges and universities of the coun- try it is because it has proved it's worth as a training school for fight CTS and for the development of these qualities that make man more val uable to his country in this great emergency" This is what Dr. Nor man c. Paine. football coach at the University of Arkansas, told his men at practice today. The Razorbacks have started the season following the announcement of the War Depart ment that it does not wish to have the game suspended.
 "The war is becoming more and more straight offensive war;" Doc tor Paine said. "In cleaning up ter ritory after the men have taken trenches or towns there is much hand to hand fighting with the bay onet. Not all the Germans are say ing 'Kamerad." The victory goes to him who is quickest with bayonet The idea is to get the. other fellow before before he sees you. Here is where the alertnes and quickness de- veloped in football prove finesti- mible value.
 America is a land of games. Foot ball. baseball. basketball, and track are comparatively unknown in France and England. About one-half of the officers of the American EX- peditionary Force are ormer football men. They had the fighting qualities to start with. No wonder they have made good as fighters.
