graphs, scattered among officers OF the
artillery and Infantry. Five thousand
miles Of telephone wire and 6,000 in
struments we're employed, and this
elaborate system kept up with the adj
vance OF the army. BY this service
fanking troops could telephone their
position back to the artillery. The tel

could have been handled by this equip

were engaged. Thousands OF carrier
pigeons aided the signal corps. Ex-
tenslve hospital facilities, 1900 trucks,
miles of railroad, were provided for
this big military operation, and 10000
feet Of movie film were exposed, so all
the soldiers had to do was, to fight.
