Correspondence of The Associated

high favor as an engine of assault a

cannon of a machine gun can fire in
any direction.
While the British were manufactur-

French, without knowing of the work
their allies were doing, experimental
with lighter cars, one type weighing
Is tons and another 23-tons. The 49,

soldiers in Europe.
Arrangements will be made to have
receptacles placed in one or two CEN

there, and the local. committees viii

officials.
We ask the hep of every patriotic
person in Tarpon Springs in saving
and collecting these heretofore dis
carded parts of fruits and nuts, which
are so needed in the manufacturing
of gas-masks for our soldiers in their
warfare against the barbarous leu

Receptacles for the collection of
these fruit pits and nut shells will be
placed at the Basket store and the
Central pharmacy and all pits and
nut shells left at these places will be
taken care of.
