G. w. Barron in the Wall Street Jour-
nal. In this war they made world rec

131a-inch guns into position in 45 min

the Frenchmen saw the American
boys do it in 1919 minutes, and they
did not use either horses or motors.
Fifty American officers and men put
the gun into place and they were the
talk of the town at that French camp.

How He Got Needed Umbrella

w. NJ. Hughes, the premier of Aus.
tralia, once came by an umbrella
through illicit means. He is fond of
telling the tale against himself.
While he was walking home one
pitch-black night a sudden storm
broke and, seeking shelter from the
rain, he fastened to the nearest DOOR
way. After waiting there for few
minutes, he spied small boy coming
along with an enormous umbrella.
The premier, thinking the owner
might offer to share, called out Sharp
ly:. Hi, there, young man! Where
are you going with that umbrella?"
The lad, startled at the sound which
apparently emanated from nowhere,
dropped the umbrella and fed up the
street as hard as his legs would carry
him. He vanished utterly, and Mr..
Hughes predicament was solved.
