sum of money. War bonds, or mer-
chandise to award as prizes for the
best entries in his contest.
Many young people are contest
fans. Often they are we'll paid for
their effort, and they find in this
pastime real nobby and chance
to cash in on the many prizes being
offered.
Perhaps you will ask "How shall
I get started at this profitable
hobby" To begin with, you need
very little material other than what
you already have-paper. envelopes,
pen and ink, and little patience.
How to select a contest? Watch
your daily newspapers, listen to the
radio, and have your friends keep
you informed.
Pick contest you are interested
in and one you know you will enjoy
working on. If you like to write
letters, choose a letter contest or a
so or 100-word statement contest.
When the contest is about a product,
always remember that the sponsor
is looking for new point to adver-
! tise. Don't write to him what he
has already written in hundreds of
his own advertising pieces. Give
him something new and original.
If you like to write jingles, why

wounded or taken prisoner, or else
they fed to the rear, where reserve
trenches had been prepared,
The tide Of war swept back and
forth, with one side and then the
other making progress. Northern
France was the scene of much OF
the hardest fighting. More than
once it seemed that the Germans
were on the point of breaking
through to reach Paris, but the
French and British held their
ground so stubbornly that this did
not happen.
In the last year of the war, hum
dreds of thousands of American SOL
diers reached France. BY that time
the French and British soldiers, as
well as the Germans, were almost
worn out. The fresh American
troops did great deal to turn the
tide of battle.
Woodrow Wilson was President OF
the United States while the war was
going on. He believed that it was
most important to fight with some
thing besiues bullets. He found
ways to reach the minds of the
German people and to make them
think it was better to end the wal
than to keep on fighting. In one
of his speeches he listed IA condi-
tions on which peace should be
made. Those conditions became the
IA points" of history.
Partly because of the IA points
and partly because of losses or
battlefields, the German people
turned against the war. Losing hope
of victory. the German generals ane
government agreed to an armistict
on November H.. 1918.

The First World War was fought
largely from trenches. Soldiers on
both sides dug long bitches ard
these bitches were SO deep that men
could stand UP inside them. They
were not like the shallow foXholes
of the present conflict.
Behind the front-line trenches was
the artillery. Great guns doomed
night and day. From time to time
an enemy shell made direct hit
On trench, killing or wounding
soldiers in the area.
/ The greatest danger, however,
came when attacks were ordered.
The front-line trenches of the Ger
mans might be half a mile or a
mile distant from those of our own
troops, or they might be only a
few hundred feet away. The space
between the opposing trenches was
known as mo mans land"
Before the start of an attack
across no mans land the artillery
opened UP with special force. Thou
sands of shells formed what was
called 'barrage" The idea was
to bar the enemy from injuring our
troops when they advanced.
When the order was given, UP
leaped hundreds OF soldiers and
officers, armed with rifles, hand
grenades and pistols. 1t was a
dangerous thing to cross no mans
land!
The soldiers kept as close to the
ground as possible, often creeping
into holes which had been made BY
exploding shells. The object of the
attack was to seize a section of the
enemy trenches. II a trench wa,
captured. the men In 1t were killed
