DOUBLES RANGE < l. OF FIRE WEAPON.
Gun Also Perfected To Shoot 150 Times Per
 Min te

Our ordnance department has de- signed, tested and adopted a 76-milli- meter field gun with twice the range of the famous French '15' of the World war" writes Mai Gen. W. G. Haan, in the Milwaukee Journal.
 Thms spoke Colonel Walch, United States army, chief of the New York or dnance district. sa f;.
 In other types of field artillery the improvement is equally great. During active fighting ii, greakswar there is not as rule very much improvement made in ] weapons espeEiafiy VI artillery. It takes too long in testing and in pre- paration for production in large num- bers. The practical experience dur ing such war, if carefully studied, will always develop the essential weak ness of weapons as well as the desirable lines of improvement. st
 In the twenty-five years before the World war the most marked develop- ment in light and heavy artillery was increased rapidity of fire. Longer ranges were not so much sought be. cause of the difficulties of the observa- ton of the effects of the fire. Wire less equipment for airplanes greatly in creased the facilities for such observa- ton and the advantages of long range weapons became painfully apparent in the World war, particularly, so since enemy guns of corresponding calibers outranged ours. sii
 Smothered The Enemy
 Some Improvements in our projectile toward the end of the war largely over came this defect, and with greatly su- perior numbers of equally ranging guns available! at the front in the last month of the war, we were able largely to smother" the enemy witl artillery.
 Our artillery and ordnance officers, working in complete harmony since the war, have made some remarkable de .velopments in artillery weapons for field armies. The principal weapons for field artillery are: The 75-milli- meter (the famous French 75J, the mountain gun, the 4.7-inch gun and the 6-inch Co. F. F.). -
 Vast Strides Since War
 By an examination of the ranges and fields of fire as shown it will be seen what tremendous improvements have been made since the war. In other lines the developments have been equal ly great. An automatic rifle has been made and tested firing service ammuni- tion. 1t weighs less than ten pounds. It is a one-man gun and can be fired from the shoulder by one man at the rate of more than 150 shots a minute, This gun may we'll replace the rifle and the light machine gun. A 50-caliber machine gun has been perfected and thoroughly tested. It fires bullet weighing four times as much as the 3O-caliber Browning and throws it three times as far, about 5000 yards (nnore than 6.1 miles.
 All nations are making tremendous improvements in war weapons, and it may look like an international race and so it is. So long as it is necessary to maintain a national defense force to guard against possible foreign enemies, just so long as it is necessary that our troops. be armed with the best pos sible weapons, in order that when the conflict comes our men may not be at a disadvantage.

 acres of farm land, and her spring wat CT company, Mrs. Orvis naturally in terests herself in affairs of the village, county and state. Her opinions carry weight and though some people in Man chester object to aswoman being the mayor" they lack the strength to oust her.
 A business woman. in close conta ct as a hotel owner with the travelling pub lie and possessing big city mind, Mrs Orvis early learned that Vermont, in her opinion, and those of the travelling public, was steadily. tagging behind be- cause of lack of 'hard' roads. She has fought consistently,& overcome the Vermonter's viewpoint that a dirt and gravel road is the best road Macadam and cement or any good type of hard road is necessary if Vermont is to not only progress as a great tourist state, but get back much of the tourist busi- ness, according to Mrs. Orvis.

 No Nonpartisan Politics
 A story is told of Mrs. Orvis that once she was asked to join a woman's political. organization and was assured that the body was nonpartisian. She a thing in politics.
 While Vermont has its woman mem. Der of the republican national com mittee the state is yet to have a wom- en's republican club. Mrs.. Orvis de. elared the League of Women Voters ayowedly nonpartisan, has made con siderable headway in Vermont and one reason for it's success is the fact there is no, organization of republican women 5. Believeing strongly in women's or. ganization, Mrs. Orvis would like to sec such a thing in her native state, but when asked why the women of Yer mont had not organized, she answered apparently the state is not yet ready The absence of such an organization she thinks. is coating votes. for ac- cording to Mrs. Orvis, history in Massa- chusetts and Connecticut shows that the nonpartisan organization has made democrats of the members. It is also doing it in New York, she says.
