Trained by veterans of the British
tank service and equipped with the
most modern of the land war ships, the
new force will give an excellent
account of itself. The British coaches
of the American crews have expressed
their approval of the manner in which
their pupils have adapted themselves
to the operation of the machines and,
unless they are mistaken, the men
whose training in England is just be-

the slightest intimation that the tanks

1t is expected that because of the
excellence of the weapon with which

Further cause for believing the

requisites were insisted upon: First,
every man must be physically fit. and,
second, temperamentally adaptable.
The training every man has received

Wrists.

g.. Philadelphia minutes after he
had been stung on both wrists by bees,
Charge L. Hume, sixty-six years old, q
resident Of Santa Ana, Cal, died.
The bees stings acted as violent
poison, physicians stated, probably
because Of Hume's unusual physical
condition. Hume was stung by the
bees when he attempted to destroy a
hive close to his home.
Physicians, when told of the peculiar
case, stated that there was a probabil.
ity that the poison injected by the
bees struck an artery and was imme.
diately conveyed to the heart, causing
death. 1t was also said that the bees
stings may have acted as violent poi.
son because of an unusual physical con.

The physicians said that so sudden
death from bees stings was very
unusual.
