BUGLE IN MODERN WARFARE
Something of an Analogy Between
That instrument and the Trumpets
Sounded at Jericho.

A glass bar set vibrating lengthwise
by sound will smash to pieces If the
sound rise to a high enough key-that
Is, If the number of vibrations becomes
great enough. And the hardest metals,
such as iron and steel, will break like
repeated feeble blows. For this rea-
son when regiments march across a
metal bridge they are always ordered
to break step, in order that the impact
of their feet may not set up rhythmic
vibrations in the structure.
Many persons who have mania for
explaining In materialistic way all
the wonders related in the Bible have
cOnjectured that when the walls of
Jericho fell under the trumpet blasts
of Joshua's army these were keyed to
set up IL the walls precisely the vibra-
t0ns that would shatter them. And
1t may be said that this explanation is
by no means confined to materiallsts
for this very opinion was held also by
the old Jewish rabbis, as well as by
st. Augustine, st. Jerome and st. Am
brOse. But Father Athanasius Kir-
cher, S. j., In his learned treatise "Mu-
surgla universalls" (book Ky, showed
the insuflciency Of such a physical ex-
PLANTATION and concluded that only a
miracle could have produced that eff
feet.
Nicolas Flannel, writing In La Nature
on the acoustics of speaking trumpets,
cites the aforementioned authors and
mentions the highly interesting fact
that great French scientist showed
the officers OF the troops that recap
tured the fort of Douaumont a year
ago way to use the bugle. Until then
and ever since the Germans dug them
selves in after their defeat on the
Marne the bugles had been silent, as
they could be heard equally well In the
enemy's trenches. M. Flannel adds
that this scientist has since then made
great improvements In the use of the
bugle at the front, but military exlgen.
cles forbid going into details.

Shin OF the Desert.

Because of it's peculiar swaylng mo-
ton In walking, the camel has been
called the "shlp of the desert" This
title may also have some reference to
the extreme stupidity and passlvity Of
the animal, says Popular Science
Monthly which submits to great
loads, which 1t will often carry for
days at time without stopping for
food or drink, with no more urging
than ship would require from the
hands Of its pilot.
The manner In which the drivers
hobble the camels when they stop for
a rest is interesting. They do not de-
pend upon stakes driven In the deep,
yielding sand, but simply double back
and tie one end OF the forelegs OF the
animal, so that II can lie down or rise
up, but cannot move from the spot.

Buds and Flowers In Cooking.

The French Canadians are said to
use the acid flowers Of the redbud, or
Judas tree, in salads, while the buds
and tender pods are packed in vine
gar. Honey locust pods, often locally
called "honey-shucks," contain sweet
ish, thick, cheeselike pulp, which is
often eaten. Those of the mesquite
furnish the Mexicans and Indians
with a nutritious food The Creoles
of Louisiana, famous for their cook
cry, are reported to use the young
buds of the sassafras as substitute
for okra in thlckening soups.

by hiding bombs in the coal bunkers
of ships and tying them to rudder
posts. At his trial models of bombs
of his own invention were exhibited.
BY his own confession and that of his
partner the money for this combina-
ton of treachery and murder was sup
| piled by the German secret police.
In this dirty business the directing
spirit was the ambassador of the Ger
man Government, Johann Won Berns-
| torff. An ambassador is a guest of
| the nation to which he is sent and is
| supposed to behave as such. But for
nearly three years before his recall
he devoted himself to intrigue and the
| plotting of violence and murder. His
best remembered words while among
us will always be those of his letter to
his government in which he asked for
authority to spend fifty thousand dol
lars, "in order, as on former occasions,
to influence Congress through the or
ganization you know Of"
Not contented with waging war
upon us directly, Germany tried to stir
up bad blood between us and our
neighbors by treacherously violating
our hospitality. Her agents used our
territory as ground on which to make
plots with discontended Hindoos
against India. They helped to promote
movements which were intended to
tear Ireland and Canada from the
British Empire. From our side of the
border they made number of direct
attacks upon Canada, such as the
dynamiting of the international rail-
road bridge at Vanceboro, Maine, and
the attempt to destroy the locks of
the Welland canal.
Mexico received much attention
from these gentlemen. Germany hand
ed over six hundred thousand dollars
to the exiled Huerta to enable him to
stir up new revolution in his unfor-
tunate country, placed one of her war
ships at his disposal, and supplied him
with arms. The famous Zimmerman
letter, of January, 1917, will be remem-
bered by everyone.
In this letter the German minister
of foreign affairs proposed that in
case of war with the United States.
Mexico and Japan should Join with
Germany; and promised Mexico she
should receive as her share of the
plumber New Mexico, Arizona, and
Texas.
In this long list Of outrages nothing
has been said aboat the submarine
warfare waged against us. 1t began
with the sinking of the Lusitania, May
7, 1915, when ia American citizens.
men, women and children were foully
murdered on the high seas 1t con-
tinued till the toll of American lives
had reached twice that number.
The German government stops at
nothing. She has become a danger to
the whole world. The danger from
her, when we at length broke off rela.
tons, was not remote and problemat-
ical 1t was at hand. She was actually
making war upon us.

A New Parable,

A certain man had mu h land and
many focks. At the season of the
year he called his steward and said
unto him: Come thou with me and
we will overlook the flocks; for behold
all the flocks and behold all the young
of the fiocks. Let US see that the
young are well fed, well bred and well
led in right paths. For, 10, our wealth
is with the young" So the master
and his steward gave much time and
many days to the care of the young,
and they grew in strength and num-
bers until they filled the pastures of
the valleys.
