age to Inhabitants.

BEISSAT, France CP).-For the sec
ond time in three years the inhabitants
of this village have been shelled out
of their houses by artillery practice.
A dozen 6-inch shells landed in the
streets, but, beyond breaking window
panes, did no damage.
The inhabitants feel that if the au-
thorities cannot find officers who can
calculate ranges they should at least
provide bombproof shelters and a group
life insurance policy.

Speed of a Golf Club.

The speed of a driver in the hands
Of a professional may reach a speed of
l25 miles an hour, although it will fall
under that mark as rule. The man
who made the record also made swings
which registered only 70 miles an hour.
The device in the General Electric lab
oratory by which these flashes were
measured employs two photoelectric
beams arranged so that the club in its
passage passes through both Of them
Immediately before and after striking
the ball. The apparatus is capable of
measuring speeds which have never be-
fore been measurable because of the
nature Of their form. The tests demon
strated that lightness rather than
weight in the head of the club and the
length of the shaft contributed to the
higher rates of speed

Almost as diabolca the kidnapping itself is the fran

afternoons.
From the days of Charlie Ross until there
