Board OF Game Commissioners, Chief

The Siren, the Trench
L Guns Again

But the day has been hard, and one drops
asleep at last. Suddenly, corkscrewing into
ones unquiet dream, the siren; then the
French guns-another alerte The cellar?

bcrmaid says. One decides for bed, after
making sure that shutters are tight closed

nobody who has not heard them tolling
peace, tolling sleep, through these solemn
nights knows the forttude of the soul of
France.
An early evening alcrte is worth seeing
in the Metro. The current is cut off at the
first signal; the trains stop and dsgorge
their passengers, who mingle with the pop
ulace that flows down from above-mostly
working class families bringing their un-
finished dinners with them dangling their
legs over the platform, they proceed to
finish them, passing the bread and bottle
from hand to hand. The crowd is not light
hearted as it was in early March; it no
longer stops to bring mattresses and pho
nographs; it is less inclined to sing as it
walks the weary way home through the
tunnels to Mont Rouge or Montmartre, and
when the signal comes it makes straight for

Yet this Partisan people is more than ever

A Spanish Conception of the Big Gun

Meanwhile, it is Easter Sunday. The
horse chestnuts show their spiky whiteness
overhead Italian anemones, mimosa,
roses, daffodils, violets, lilacs-all the buoy
ant and exquisite overs of spring are
blooming along fine gray walls, and color
vistas that never looked more nobly de-
tached and immaculate. Mass was cele-
brated in the churches this morning in spite
of Good Fridays disaster, and this after
noon we had chance in the Bots, in the
Champs-Elysees, among the strolling
crowds, to note that by no means all the
children of the rich had been sent to the
country. Here they are, with their stream
looms that float above them like little red
and green souls. mocking and challenging
the forces of destruction. At decent in
sort of thunder shower and lightning often
strikes amiss. After the first day and
half of it, more than a week ago, an officer
of the Red Cross went out to get his lunch.
Paris had just traversed one rather dis
quoting moment-a moment of mystery;
ordered to its cellars in broad daylight, it
could not, in spite of periodic explosions,
discern single "Gotha" in the empyrean
or hear a single French defensive shot.
But news of the longrange gun was now
abroad; already the realistic reaction had
let in; a!read; the boulevards were in
movement. and the old woman who sells
newspapers a. the kiosk opposite the Mad
eleine was in her place.
"Good morning, Madame haven't
heard that famous gun of yours for at
least half an hour-have you?"
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1918-05-19

But these raids have had an effect.
They have had an important effect on the
outcome of the war. ! have seen I'M
deniable evidence of it in three quarters.
namely, in the French army, in the
French rear and in the American army.
The first effect is this: it has elimi.
mated the last element of traditional dis
cord between the front and the rear.
Paris shares in small way some of the
perils Of the front--the poilu from the
provinces knows that the Deputies, the
munition workers, the bureau people and
society are under fire. The sympathy
tightens. And some one he knows has
lost wife or child-eighty members Of
congregation killed at worship-and
again one Frenchman holds back his
three beasts in gray, and French motor
batteries drive up within two hundred
yards Of the Boche positions and put
their guns out of action.
And in the rear-the easiest way to ig-
more the Gothas is to work to exhaus-
ton. The production of every manner
of war material increases as if by magic.
Paris glows with pride to be sharing a
trife of the daily food of those "down
there"
And the Americans-they have seen
the beasts head raised again, and they
know why they are in France. The
slaughter on Good Friday has given
them the clear vision they seemed some
times to lack. They are going down into
the Somme with righteous hate in their
hearts that will make them worthy COM
rades of the French.
The German psychologists are to be
thanked. They have made the American
army. They have given US the propa-
ganda we needed-and it was only few
brief lines Of the communique.
That is what found in the panic
stricken Heart of France" Civ.

bly, and stays there, it is no doubt to me,

1t is clear, observes the Chicago news
paper, that here M. Max's attention was
diverted to something besides the
"Apache" and, incidentally, the game, be-
cause he closes Timing No. 1" by saying,
"the players reversed their positions and
a sign significant of zero was hung up
TO an accompaniment of cheers"
Discussing the spectators Max noted
their strained expressions and attributed
them to ''the practice of drinking favored
water carbonique from bottles" He
states that he was surprised to find spec
tators throwing these bottles at the "gen-
tleman in the uniform of blue" and that
he finally inquired about it. A very polite
soldier who had just hurled his bottle
told Max that the gentleman was sus-
pected of being Boche.
Concluding his account, the French
journalist assures his readers that the
hint about the gentleman being Boche
didn't get past him and that he had i'm
mediately placed the gentleman as "sus-
pect" with the nearest Office. Of the Intel
ligeAce Service.
