leased from his grip.
1t Is a mechanical device. with a
lever. fitted into q slot at The ton.
which extends half way around the
circumference and is held In place at
the bottom by a fixing pin. In his pin
there is a small metal ring, for the
purpose of extracting the pin when
ready to throw.

In throwing, the bomb and lever ara

the right leg, knee bent, Is carried
slightly to the right. The left arm ia

pointing In the direction the bomb Is to
be thrown. This POSITION is similar
to that Of shot putting. only that, the
right arm Is extended downward. Then
you hurl the bomb FROM you with an
overhead bowling motion. the same as
in cricket, throwing it fairly high In
the air. this In order to give the fuse
a chance to burn down so that when
the bomb lands, it Immediately ex-
plodes and gives the Germans no time
to scamper out Of its range or to re-
turn it.
AS the bomb leaves your hand, the
lever, by means OF a spring, Is projected
into the air and falls harmlessly to
the ground a few feet In front Of the
bomber.
When the lever flies Off Il releases
a strong spring, which forces the firing
pin into n percussion cap. This ignites
the fuse, vadkf, burns down and sets
off the %detonatve, charged with fulmi.
nate or mercury, which explodes the
main charge Of ammonia.

We had q cushy time while at this

Twenty-Five men a day are being
examined by the Local Board of
District No. 3 at the Central School
building. We are informed by the
board that fully two-thirds of the
men examined are from the district
outside of Ely. This is accounted
for by the large number of enlist
ments from Ely and also inductions
into the service made by the board
since the induction rule was made.
Class 1 men have made up "a large
proportion of those indicted into
several branches of the service.
Men who failed to return their
questionaires or men who failed to
receive them by reason of unknown
addresses, are turning up constant
ly and hence we have not published
a list of possible deserters. The
Class then will all be examined
to the end of the list. No orders
as to the number or date of the
next call have been received.
