OF all the stories relating to our
colored troopers in their services over
seas, think the one like best has
to do with a brawny black infantry
man, who, on his way up to the front
for his first taste of actual combat
fortified himself on a full quart OF
potent French wine.
AS result, he reached the forward
position in somewhat elevated and
slightly groggy state. He had been
warned in advance that he was going
into an exceedingly busy and danger
Gus sector, but it so happened at the
moment of his arrival the immediate
vicinity was strangely quiet. He
glanced about him in a foggy but dis
appointed way. and then, addressing
his fellow occupants of the trench
generally, spoke as follows:
"Wha's de war?-tha's whit
wants to know! White folks suttinly
is monty deceiyin'. Yere dey prom
ises me war. So dey rides me 'crost
mon million miles of ocean an dey
marches me though mon thousand
miles of mud, an all de vile dey
keeps on tellin' me at wen l gifts up
yere dey'll be a war waitin' fur me.
An we're / is an dey amt no war !!
Dat amt no way to act. Eff any of
you folks is got airy war jest fetch
it on an leave it to me. OATS all
jest leave it in my hands,"
A veteran of several months expe-
rience in the trenches informed him
that his desires should shortly be
gratified, inasmuch as the hostile po-
sitions were only about two hundred
active and alert.
Hearing this, the green hand leaped
upon the parapet and, standing there
revealed in the moonlight, like a great
black statue of defiance, he shook a
broad fist in the direction of the foes
lines, and in a voice which might have
been heard half mile away he cried
out:
Come on, you Heinie Germans, an
gimme war; Gimme all de war you's
|, got! Gimme exploserives Gimme
gas shells! Gimme scrapernel! Gin
me bung shells! Most in special
! asts you fur bung shelis!'
AT this particular moment a German
minnenwerfer, two feet lorg and nine
inches in diameter and filled with po-
tential i'll health, went whirring in it's
wabbly, uncertain flight just over his
head, and with crash like the crack
of doom struck not fifty yards behind
him, tearing hole ir the earth big
, enough for the foundations of a
smoke house. The belligerent warrior
was slapped flat and instantly covered
in half-inch coating of powdered
grit and gravel and dust.
There he lay, stunned, until the last
reverberation had died away and the
tortured earth had ceased from its
quiverings. Then, slowly and eau
tiously, he sat up. First he felt him
self all over to make sure he was in
tact; then he stole respectful glance
| rearward to where the huge, new
! formed crater behind him still was
F, smoking and Tuning and throwing off
noxious smells, and then he cast a
cautious look in the direction from
/, which the devlisl visitor had come,
| and, finally, in still. small, curiously
| altered voice, he said:
swell, suzz, dey's enc thing you's
got to say fur dem Germans-dey suit
tinly does give you service!"

Recharging Dry Cells

Dead dry cells can sometimes be
recharged by boring two holes in the
top of the cell, on opposite sides Of
the center connection, each one-quar-
ter inch in diameter and three inches
deep. Fill these holes with cider
vinegar or a 20 per cent solution of
sulphuric acid and water, then plug
up the holes with paraffin wax to pre-
vent evaporation.

Important Improvement
in Headphone for Radio

The radio headphone, though retain
Ing many of the original principles, is
being constantly improved to increase
its sensitivity and electrical efficiency.
Mechanical improvements are con-
stantly being made to get the receiver
as light as possible and to increase it's
strength and durability.
The whole secret of good head
phones lies in the accuracy to which
the air gap between the tip of the pole
pieces and the diaphragm is adjusted.

Let Reason Guide

Nothing which reason condemns can
be suitable to the dignity of the human
mind. To be driven to external mo-
tives from the path which our own
heart approves, to give way to any
thing but conviction, to suffer the
opinion Of others to rule our choice or
overpower our resolves, is to submit
tamely to the lowest and most ig-
nominious slavery and to resign the
right OF directing our own lives

ODertaxing the Mind

The mind by being engaged in a
