next door to the police station was
entered last night by way of rear
window. Joseph Smith, the bartender,
discovered the break this morning
when he opened the place. The burg

Proud of Boys From Dublin Hill.

''The papers at home must be full
of news about us these days, and if the
censorship rules weren't SO very strict
probably you'd be real proud of the
stock that came from New Britain,
especially from Dublin Hill. I wish
I could tell you more, but it isn't pos
sible."

Great MillenniaI Hone.

The horizon of the hopes of man is
never quite so clear that the exact
moment of sunrise Or of sunset may
be marked. But a great millennial hope
is none the less to be treasured as
the goal of all striving. Just when
it's object will be reached-if that OBJ
ject be an enduring peace, and if the
means for securing it be that perpct-
ual alliance of free nations which now
appears to embody the most promising
plan yet devised for it's attainment
none may certainly declare. But what
ever methods may be pursued to this
end the hope behind it and the con-
fidence that it is reasonable and
righteous hope are the highest justi-
fications for everything that every
body can do to achieve the victory of
the allies with whom our nation is
Joined. There is no weapon in the
spiritual armOr of the nOncOmbatant
that needs more constantly to be kept
bright.-M. A. De Wolfe Howe, in At
lantic.

Napoleon Still Points Way.

In tiny French village that is
hardly village any more, since shells
almost removed it from the earth, one
building has a tower standing I'M
touched. A platform tops this tower
and miniature figure of Napoleon
stands there facing and pointing
toward the positions held by the Ger
mans.
Thousands of shells have WhiZzed
and exploded by this tower, but none
has touched the tower or the figure
of Napoleon pointing northward.
Thousands of Americans, thousands of
trucks, quantities Of guns and am
munition and supplies have rolled over
the main street by this figure point
ing the way to the boche during the
past few weeks.
Everyone has marveled that the
tower with the miniature Napoleon
withstood all bombardment, and many
an American passing the statue among
the ruins has remarked how appro-
pirate is this defiant figure pointing
the way.

WHEN N0Y0N WAS EVACUATED
Despairing Villagers Gould Not at
Once Believe That Savage Huns
Were Really Gone.

Noyon was before the war just one
of the many sleepy old French pro-
vinciaI towns, with an hotel dc vile.
and a cathedral, and little gray streets
twisting out into rich, green agri-
cultural plain now, writes Elizabeth
Shepley Sergeant, in the Century, it
will always be remembered as the
town nearest to Paris-only 65 miles
anywhere the enemy stayed for
two and a half years. 1t had been used
during the occupation as sort of con-
centration center from the actual fir
ing line. Before the retreat, however,
virtually all the useful members of the
men between sixteen and sixty-there
were a good many of territorial age
not modified during the first days of
the war, and therefore caught by the
German invaSiOn-and most of the
women between the same ages except
wass then, a community largely made
up Of old women and children and Of
the very old, who, on a certain Thurs
day in March, were ordered to go into
their houses, close their shutters, and
not come out for 48 hours. Promptly
a series Of explosions began, very
alarming explosions, which made the
poor people inside tremble. What new
horror were they up to now? The
sounds went on for a day and half,
gradually growing fewer on the Sec
0nd morning. By afternoon, strange
~, nothing whatever could be heard !;
not a voice, not a rumble. The bold
est spirits pushed open the shutters
little and perceived that the streets
were absolutely deserted-the gray
green soldiers were nowhere to be
seen. Slowly and cautiously, halting
at every step, they yentured out and
Up into the center Of the town, coming
back with the astonishing news, the
news nobody dared believe, that the
Germans were gone. They had blown
up the bridges, burned few factories,
cut down trees along the roadsidcs,
and made off. Even then the French
inhabitants believed there must be
some trick about it; and when their
own soldiers, looking unfamiliar in
blue uniforms instead of the old red
and black, entered the town the next
morning, they tried, in the midst Of
the tears and welcomes, TO hold them
back lest they get caught in an am
bush. 1t was true, though; the peo-
pie Of the Noyon region were again
free citizens of France.

Remarkable Tactics,

In ground flying tactics the pilot
acts mainly on his own personal in
itiative, and he must be prepared to
attack the enemy wherever he may be
found, either with bombs, grenades,
darts or machine-gun fire. Thus Ger
man officers in charge of ammunition
dumps have every reason to fear the
approach of British slow fliers.'' The
fear of machinegun fire is even great
CT, and whole German regiments have
been decimated and dcmoralized by
British airplanes.
