OLD STORY TO THE INDIAN
First to Practice Art of camounage in Warfare, Is Contention of chief
 Strongheart-

Camoufiage Is as old as the storm god of Indian folk lore, according to Chief Strongheart, of the Yakima h. dian reservation, who says his men are the real inventors of 1t, discover ing it's advantages in their earliest conflicts. When a battle was to take place in the forests in the summer months the warriors would paint tleir bodies green with a dash of other col ors or produce the exact blend with surroundings. They even sketched birds and small animals on their bod les to make the effect more realistic. If the battle was to take place when autumn had withered the leaves and touched them into gold, splashes of brown and yellow made the warriors blend with the setting. The trick. when artfully turned, resulted in great victories, and many of the early settlers were taken into captivity by use of camoufiage.
 Running Elk, Strongheart's father, was scout for Gen. O. O. Howard in the Neg Perces war, and aid to Col onel Roosevelt in the Spanish-Ameri- can war, and Strongheart when a baby, was carried about on the for mer presidents back. His grandfather was Chief Standing Rock, who took part in Clusters last fight, and who died at the age of 1O9 years.

Swiss Watch Industry.

Tn a survey of the Swiss trade in watches for last year, Trade Commis- sioner H. Lawrence Graves at Zurich points out that more and more the ex- ports of these articles to the United States are being confined to finished watch movements without the case. The value of finished movements. without cases and of watches com plete with cases of gold, silver and nonprecious metals, including chro- nographs and all watches of fancy de- sign, amounted to $11,211,051. Of this total the value of the finished movements, without cases, was SS,- 2S0,726. This last figure represents about S3 per cent of the total exports of finished movements from Swltzer- land during 1919, the rest going large ly to England, Canada and Japan.
