Nuite Used to Shell
~ Holes Now

"At a third point, where shell fell in
side the parapet of roof, a Jagged hole in
the stonework Of the sixth and fifth stories
marked the spot, but the damage was so in
significant that two women this morning
were calmly sewing and occasionally lean
ing out of window of the fourth floor i'm
medlately below the shell hole and gazing
with interest at the large crowd assembled
on the other side of the boulevard to inspect
the damage.
"a curious feature is the fantastic shape
Of the holes made By the explosions in
window glass, quite unlike the wholesale
wreckage resulting from airplane bombs
The shells generally appear to be powerless
to wreck more than a portion of any one
story of a building, and when they fall on
the ground the holes made in the roadway
are insignificant"
Added interest in the discussion Of
the new weapon was given by artillery
men who happened to be in town. Ac-

It Was Just Like a
J. Holiday

"lf one were to lay finger on the most
noticeable effect of the bombardment it
would seem to be in certain holiday at
mospherc that was pcrccptibIe yesterday
and persists to-day. Il is an extraordinary
thing to say, but it is the truth. For in
stance, yesterday the strenographers and
female employees generally resorted to the
cellars, according to official instructions,
when the alarm sounded, but as time passed
they sailed forth into the streets, and
mostly never came back to work.

and the expression, "a holiday crowd was
the only one which fifty described the
streets yesterday afternoon. After the first

New-York tribune., 1918-03-31
. ARIS laughed, made holiday,

about her business.


Thus did the indirect object Of the
great German drive vindicate the superb
morale of the French people, if not of all
the Allies, in the face of the greatest
German attack and perhaps the great
est technical achievement of the whole
war.
The great paradox of the news Of the
last week has been the fact that Paris,
while always the principal though un-
named objective Of the German attack,
was saved from being all but ignored in
the news columns by the advent of the
German mystery gum that, on the third
day of the battle of Picardy, began shell
ing the capital of France from dis
tance of more than seventy miles. In
deed, it was not until French local re-
serves went into the battle and a with
drawal was made near Noyon that bat
tie communicates from Paris assumed the
Importance of those from London.
If cities have feelings. then Paris in
the first days CT the drive might have
felt little sighted. She, the proud city
of France, a goal for which millions Of
Germans had fallen, on the eve Of the
worlds greatest battle appeared likely
to occupy only an eddy in the news
stream until events took a different
turn. For, after all, the first objective
of the drive was Amiens. Then the Ger
mans hoped, by dividing the British
armies from the French, to advance in
simultaneous triumph down the Disc to
Paris and down the Somme to the Chan
mel ports.
Thus, until Amiens fell or new drive
developed, Paris might have been utterly
ignored but for another fact-that the
Germans also felt it necessary to shatter
French n )rale along with the British
armies. So Paris came back into the
headlines. While the British armies
were to be scattered before an unprece-
dented blast Of artillery fire and ire
sistible waves Of chosen shock troops, the
towers Of Paris were to be shattered by
giant shells coming from an appalling
and unheard-of distance. An engine Of
Teutonc horror, hidden in the impene-
trable depths of the Forest Of st. Gobain,
was to chill the heart of the worlds fair
est city.
