BUGLE CALLS BEGAN

Trumpets to Command in
Warfare.
From the Baltimore Sun.

From the Baltimore Sun.
The influence of the Crusades of the
Thirty Years War and of English,
French and German military life is
reflected today in the system of busl e
calls in vogue in the Army of the
United States. Our taps cannot De
traced, and is considered to be of
American origin.
The origin of bugle calls be
traced back to the Egyptians and
Israelites,. who used them in warfare
and on other occasions. IN ancient
times the soldiers marched and fought
to the martial strains of trumpets.
In the ancient Olympic games of
Greece, contests OF bugles or trumpets is
were held as far back as 296 BIC.
Savage tribes use bugles or trumpets
and tom toms to assemble their war
riors and on festive occasions.
The first authentic instance of a
command given by bugle calls was at
the battle of Bouvines, where Phillip
Augustus of France defeated Otto "
of Germany in 1914, when the bugles
sounded that signal for the victorious
French charge.

KING OF FRANCE WORE
FIRST SILK STOCKINGS

From the Baltimore Sun.
1t is said that the first silk stock
ings were worn at wedding by
Henry III, King of France. in the
sixteenth century.
These stockings were knitted with
needles through process invented in
1864 by William Rider, an English
man. Until that period in the history
Of the world knitted stockings were
unknown.
The first knitted stockings were
manufactured in quantity half CEN
tury later at Rouen, France, by Will
liam Lee. an EnglishJnan, who was
unable to find support for his in
vention at home. Although Lee died
in proverty, his weaving needle frame
was taken back to Nottingham by his
workmen and then spread through
out Europe.
His process was used unimproved
for 200 years, and particularly until
American ingenuity invented new
methods around 1850. The seamless
method of making hose is peculiarly
American, although adapted from the
discovery of Decroix. in France, in
