Why Marching Soldiers Keep Better
Time When There Are No Bands
in the Line.

Walter Moore Coleman writes 10
Science from Cambridge, England
calling attention to the fact that the
only time soldiers keep perfect step
is when they are without sound sig
nails, such as the beat of drum. Ana
he explains it thus: "Sound travels
about LOGO feet per second at 0 degree
c., or 265 feet in one-fourth second
The soldier next the drummer steps
with the drum-beat, the soldier Zoo
feet in the rear is one-fourth secohu
late and has his foot in the air Wheh
the foot of the front man is on the
ground. This is because they march
at 40 steps per minute (twO steps per
second), which gives one-half a step III
one-fourth second. Hence the soldier
who hears the signal one-fourth sec
ond late will fall one-half step behIhu.
The feet are. seen to strike the groulu
in receding waves as the sound passes
down the line. If the drum stops, the
men in two or three seconds get ih'O
perfect step again and go with sway
and swing absent at other times.

British Private'S Experience Con-
Sidered Most Remark
able of War.
AIDS HIS HELPLESS COMUADE
Lives on Foed Taken From Dead
Bodies-Wanders Too Far Afield
and is Taken Prisoner
by Germans.

London. - Private Peters of the
British army lived five weeks with a
helpless comrade in a hole within
thirty yards of the German trenches.
Their experience is considered the
most remarkable of the war. 1t was
in 1917, at Croiselles that the fifty
men then remaining of Private Peters
company were ordered to dig in. The
spot was a sunken road. The men had
passed their objective and run into
their own barrage fire. They fell like
Einepins.
When Private Peters looked up from
his digging only his captain, himself
and comrade named McGuiness re-
manned. Then the captain was shot
dead and the comrade fatally wounded
Private Peters went out for look
around and found stretcher bearer
with shattered thigh. He hauled
him into the dugout The stretcher
bearer had iodine and his wound was
kept free of infection.
THAT night two German officers

gade opened with machine guns and
rifles on the leading portion Of the col

hearted resistance surrendered.
Hun Starts Destruction.
at was nightfall. More than 20
600 enemy had been captured, and still
they came. The town had not yet sur
rendered-probably there was no one
there in authority to capitulate. But
the Hun started on his work of demo
lition. Suddenly we saw huge CON
Migration near the wireless station.
Flames leaped skyward hundreds. OF
feet. Loud explosions sounded from
time to time, sending myriads of sparks
into the air. 1t provided d gorgeous
pyroteehnic display of gargantuan
proportions. Ammunition. benzine
and stores all fed the fire. 1t lighted
up the city like moonlight.
Then we knew that the Germans
had decided to surrender. From the
east the victorious Arabs swarmed INTO
the city, yelling with triumph. and
blazing a veritable feu de joie into the
air. Turks and Germans fought in the
streets, then fed to the shelter of the
gardens and surrendered at dawn.
Back to the Barada Gorge. the
Fifth brigade held the road, and
small proportion was able to snatch an.
hours sleep-the first since leaving
Kuneitra ~ hours before.

casualties were very small we called
1t a bloodless victory, but within 4

eve of peace. That's the pity of it,
Secretary Tulnulty learned of Fox's
action when. receiving delayed infor-

Peters, telling his story.
"Shrapnel lodged on top of our dug.

German officers stood over Us the next
night. But they never searched our
hiding place. -
There We're sixty dead men lying

1--WE had hot coffee, cocoa and beef

duced to rifle oil and wood for fuel.
Food of Dead Gives Out
"The night came when the food of
the dead soldiers outside had all been

Taylor, after Peters capture, was
examined by the Germans. who lifted
his sound leg, but he slammed dead
and they passed on. Then he crawled
through the German trenches, which
were by that time thinly held ever the

About FIVE hours Is occupied by the

upper river are small, the dining-tables
set out on the open main deck In picnic
style. There are only six cabins on
this little boat, and most of the score
Of passengers sleep outside under a
sapphire velvet sky set with million
diamonds. This sky seems very close
above; the air is soft, full of wood

song Of the river, only overcome when
at first flush of dawn hundreds of ring

bushes.
With full daylight comes realization
of the beauty of the rio arriba. Here
the steep, folded mountain spurs stand
down to the waters edge, little white
cliffs marking the force of the food in

Not Worth s1o.

An American unused to court eth
quette was invited just before the war,
says Golfers, to dine with German
prince. A glittering flunky presented
a silver plate to him just before the
hors d'oeuvres were served. He
blushed, fmbIed in his pocket, then
said to himself, II have nothing but q
$40 note, but I don't think any Ger
man dinner is worth $40" so he let
the plate pass. He then discovered
that the plate was intended to receive
the white gloves that he ought to have
worn Boston Post.
