NEWARK, N. j., March 3-Louis V.
Aronson, head OF the Newark Art Metal
Works, has Invented a "windproof,
Waterproof and foolproof" match. He
claims his match has been adopted bv
the military authorities for use of the
United States soldiers and sailors
throughout the world. Mr.. Aronson
says heF purposes to give the govern
ment exclusive use of the match for the
period of the war.
Two kinds of the matches are to be
made. One can be lighted onlv on a
specially prepared surface on the side
OF the box, but the other kind can be
lighted anywhere on hard or soft, rough
or smooth, wet or dry surfaces.
Weather conditions will not make anv
difference with the matches, saws the
inventor. Rain will not interfere with
them nor will the wind blow them out,
AS soon as the flames die out the suh-
stance left becomes cold and incapablo

important news from Bayside, Queens,
in the paper this morning. Everybody
thought that the big pinochle tourna-

partment would be finished on Satur-
day night in time to get the results to
the New York papers for publication
to-day. 1t would have been, too, if it
hadn't been for that pesky 1912 from
New York and the tarnation careless
ness of julie the Barber.
julie, whose real but seldom used
name is Jules Santo, is a charter mem
Der of the department, which means
that he has been watching pinochle
tournaments for twenty-five years, and

julie the Barber was assigned as me-
chancal assistant in the tournament.

ran down just before midnight SO that
the tournament wouldn't extend into
Sunday, but in the excitement of the

Special Front Line Work
Arranged For at Re-

To Serve Hot Drinks
More Than 100000 Poilus
Have Enjoyed Them in
Last Six Months
[Staf Correspondence

WASHINGTON, March 3.-A special
Red Cross front line service is to be
installed with all American troops en-
gagged in actually fighting operations,

Cross announced tonight.
The following cable, explanatory OF
the new service, was received by Tie
Red Cross to-day:

lean troops now engaged in actually
lighting the Germans, special front
line service. This Is a development OF

the American Red Cross has during the
last six months served more than
100000 French poilus with hot drinks
and. above all else, friendly boost

selves.
To-day the Red Cross has fifteen
rolling canteens behind the lines From
these canteens are sent forward daily,
often in the small hours of the night,
fifty or more large receptacles contain
ing hot drinks. These are served t1ea
to the men going on or just coming OF
duty The work has prc,ed itself to
be of such value to tie French that
the American army has asked the Red
Cross to have this service directly IN
touch with the medical relief stations
nearest the front. The work is often
done under heavy she'll fire. and re
quires men Of great bravery and sym
pathy.
Eugene Hale, brother of Senator
Hale, finishing six months without
vacation with rolling canteen, near
Verdun. served thousands of French
troops. and gained great commentator
from French generals who noticed the
character of his work.
Returning to Paris to-day, just be-
fore leaving for America, Mr.. Hale
said: While the men are glad to have
hot drinks. their chief satisfaction con-
sists in the sense this service gives
them of friend being there to extend
