New Trick Succeeds.

In one OF the American artillery at
tacks the Germans. after discovering
that the hostile guns had the exact
range OF their dugouts left them and
took up an exposed position on the eoge
OF the woods. where they waited for
the artillery fire to cease so they could
climb back in the dugouts to greet the
infantry when II came over. Our boys.
discovering this trick. waited until the
Germans had climbed out of their dug
outs, and then opernd up n machine
gun and rifle fire before the artillery
ceased. This was an innovation for
which the Germans we're totally unpre-
pared. and as result our boys got 400
of them without suffering a casualty in
return.

Do YOU WANT HELP?

The United States Employ
ment Service, of the Department
of Labor, will be in position to
relieve the farmer of any labor
shortage that may arise during
the coming summer months.
Through the United States Pub
lie Service Reserve, Government
Clerks that have had experience
on farms, have been enrolled to
do emergency farm work for the
period of their vacation.
1t is of National Importance
that every individual give as
much spare time as possible to
the farm, so that nothing be lost
in the production of food. The
Government Clerks are respond
ing nobly to this call to do their
utmost on the farm during the
summer months, and this should
be of great assistance to the
farmer.
For particulars concerning
Emergency Farm Labor, any
farmer that needs help in the
vicinity of Washington, Virginia
or Maryland should apply to the
local office of the United States
Employment Service, 1410 Penn.

WORK is DUTY AND HONOR, TOO

There is no effect more whole
some which the war is produc-
ing on both the physical and
moral stamina of men than the
sentiment and opinion that do
nothingness or Incidence, wheth-
er it be among the poor or among
the rich, should be viewed in
these times as an objectionable
disgrace.
No man whose health or
strength is equal to the tasks of
some useful employment should
be permitted to live in daily idle
ness, to practice habits of chron-
ic shiftlessness, and to play the
part of a sponger, a loafer or a
gentleman of leisure"
Never was honest work more
respected, and more worthy of
respect, than it is today, and
never was an idler more of an
object of disrepute and detesta-
ton.
Even if a man may not be sub
ject to the "work-or-fght" order,
he should be expected and re-
quired to live up to it in its spirit
and general purpose regardless
of his age or his relation to the
draft, should his physical condi-
ton be normal or passable.

The recent State law requiring
all vehicles on the public high
ways at night to carry a light is
not being observed. This law
was passed for the better pro-
lection of those who travel. It
is an inexpensive requirement,
and should be enforced. Any
light so placed that it can be
seen from both the front and
rear is sufficient. The law re-
quires many things of the auto
mobile user. He must pay for
license for his car, a county and
State tax and license to operate.
In addition he must have head
lights, rear light and when at
rest a side light. If he does not
he is heavily fined. In order that
collisions may be better avoided,
the other vehicles are only re-
quired to have a light visable
from both front and rear a dis
lance of 200 feet. 1t is the duty
of the officers to see that the law
is obeyed.

MAZDA Hill.

1t is now more than a century since
an English army fought in Italy, and
won the battle of Mazda over the
French. Napoleon had vowed to con-
quer Sicily. and for that purpose the
French pushed on into Calabria, and
began to make extensive preparations.
But the English forces for the de-
Tense of Sicily prepared to deal a blow
on the mainland. A force of 5000
men landed In the bay of St. Emphe-
mia, and the battalions of the French
fell before the bayonets of the Brit
ish. Napoleon's hopes were shattered
at stroke. But the "daily-breader"
from Ktlborn travelling into London,
by way of the Edgward road, never sus-
poets as he passes by Mazda Hill and
Mazda Vale, the origin of the name.

Interesting life Statistics,

On the authority of experts repre-
senting forty-three leading life insur-
ance companies in the United States,
II appears that spinster lives longer
than married woman. Business wom-
en- live longer than business men. A
woman who takes an endowment pol
Icy lives longer than a woman who
takes an ordinary life policy. 1t is not
easy to explain why an unmarried
woman survives q matron, nor why a
business woman survives q bust
ness man, but the longevity of the
endowment woman Is believed to be
due to the determination to live until
the policy natures. VIII power is
hardly less important in many cases
than physique, and must always be
reckoned with. Even in disease man
or woman possesses a natural tend
ency toward health. and cures which
often are attributed to medicine are
really the assertion Of the will.-Cap-
