QUEER EFtfCT ON
 INSIDE OF TANKS
 BY MACkINE GUNS

London, Oct. /3O.-( Correspondence of the Associated Press) ).-Machlne- gun bullets sprayed against the sides of tank produce sueer effect with in it, says one British army officer who has spent three months fighting with his tank in France. The bullet, he says cannot pierce the armor but it does knock off on the inside a thin flaAe of steel that pulverized and flies in all directions. It gets into the faces of the crew and stings them like strong wind on cold day. The surgeons have found that a simple bath of iodine solution will heal the pain and prevent infection. Describ- ing the scene within a tank which is being hit with machine-g gun bullets, the officer said:
 "As the bullets strike the tank, simultaneously with the sound of inn pact and the creation of the flake, a blue flame is seen, and when a ma chine-gun is playing up and down the joints in the hope of finding a weak spot, the interior looks much like a demonstration of cheap fireworks.
 While there is no danger from ma CIllIic-SuIlS CO q UoHh crew, CHeIc 10 real pressing danger from armor- piercing or explosive shells.
 "Unless it is possible to get within a mile of the guns before being dis covered one is liagle to come within range of shells that will wipe the tank off the face of the earth. A 'di- rect hit means that everything is go- ing to get hurt with the chances that somebody is going to be killed. The Germans were always trying to make such hit. Once within a mile of the enemy the tank is comparatively safe for the guns cannot be depressed to get the range. Then the only thing the tank has to deal with is the ma chine-gun. When this is accurately located the tank quickly runs it down. The German machine gunner was Germany's best fighter Generally he would hang on to a position, pep pering the numbering tank until he found it was no use and died or was run over.
 "Cne of the tricks we learned was the tremendous value of tanks against masses of enemy troops. At first we were content to use the ordinary ma chine-guns in tanks but in the latter months we used the shell, timed to explode as it left the gun, scattering it's scores of leaden bullets like shot gun. Troops without artillery were solely unable to stand such fire,

SLOWER THAN CITY COUSIN
Be Possessed of Much Less
Initiative and Speed.

American officers are making pre-
cisely the same comment az to the city
boy versus the country boy that the
British officers made when the first
green regiment came to the continent.
says correspondent In France. The
country boy is heavier, stronger. but
also slower lad than his city cousin.
City life sharpens the wits" is the
British conclusion. 1.-THE city boys
adapt themselves TO this devilish life
more rapidly than the country boys
do. They are just as hardy, too, and
soon pick up the little outdoor tricks
that so many country boys have learn
ed on hunting and fishing trips. The
city youngster has more initiative and
more speed"
"Is he gamer" I asked.
There are no gamer regiments in
the British army than the cockneys,"
was the reply.
Americans find the country boy
needs more watching and caring for
than the recruit from the city. His
morale and behavior are far better
but he does not adapt himself quickly
to his new environment.

Hoppinu Exercise.

Hopping is one of the best exercises
for developing muscles. 1t is easy to
do, too, for the movement consists Of
jumping first on one foot and then on
the other, so that the whole weight of
the body will be borne by one foot and
leg for one or more minutes. This ex-
ercise improves the way of carrying
the body when walking, states a ply
steal culturist, for it develops balance
as we'll as muscle. This exercise
should be taken when going to bed and
the windows should be open, so there
will be plenty Of fresh air in the room.
