The period of rest and the :pe- riod of exertion seem to have merged themselves into one long period. I Jook out on the river at two or.thrée fo the morning and it is as busy as the river at midday, writes Grace Royn- ton Monks in the Outlook. Barges ‘ere being towed up.and down and gow being shipped from the whartes. reg vans rattle along the road beneath: my window and the streets are as full of | People at night as they ate in the day- time, done by night as by day. The other evening I thotored from the Menorway ——€ate of the arsenal to the entrance of the danger buildings and returned just as the night shift was going in. to work. The chauffeur had to goat ‘a @nail’s pace, ‘blowing his horn continu- ally. The broad roads which run be- tween the buildings. were crowded from side to side, swarming with work- ers, principally women. They had ‘to crowd together at the side of the rond These women were going ‘in on a 12- hour night shift—some whose work | would be purely mechanical, others who_would have difficukt operations to perform and many who worked in act- ual danger. Those who were going to the build- ings from which I had just come know that Unless they took the utmost care there was danger of an explosion, and had a night and a succession of nights and days to look forward to when they would be breathing in yellow powder in spite of yells: arid all the precau- tions the government can provide. I knew them by their yellow bair and faces. Occasionally a head in the vast mob of faces nodded to me or a hand waved, for I have many friends among them.

ROOKIE ATONED FOR FAULT ‘Call It “Fisherman's Luck,” if You Will, He Came Out of Scrape With Coveted Decoration. - At Aix a strange story was told of an American soldier who will probably abandon fishing for the rest of his life. It seems that the rookie had heard it said that one could readily catch fish with a hand grenade, the method being to pregeed to the lair of the fish and huri-tre hand grenade fi to the water. ‘The grenade, explod- ing, would kill all the fish in: the neighborhood,-and one:could. gather in a plentifulhatvest. So our’ hero-set forth one-evening and, reaching a not far distant canal, he threw im his paud grenade. No doubt it killed a fish or “80, but, unfortunately, so intent was he on bis job that he had not noticed a barge hard by. The grenade nearly blew the barge and the-bargee and his family out of France, and did such mighty damage to, boat and boat- men that, although for the moment flight enabled the culprit to escape arrest, it was quite clear that, when discovered, ys he would inevitably be, he would suffer very severe puntsh- ment. It cannot be permitted to blow French barges up with ‘tmpunity. A court-martial and death were the least that the wretch expected. That night ~, there was an attack on the American Our man. went over'the top |, sector. & desperate rookie. He had deter mined to die a glorious death rather _Shan submit to a shameful end. The result was that, singlehanded, he killed seven Germans, and, seizing @ machine gun, turned it on the enemy, thereby saving a ticklish situation. Picking up the m*chine gun, after it had done sufficient damage, he car ried it back toward°his own line, but, en route, he fell into a German trench and on top of a German postman. This postman was laden with mail for the regiment or company ousted from the trench; cigars and other delicacies were among his burdens. As the offi- ter who told the story ald, the rookie fourdered the postman and, seizing several bags of mail, bore them, in ad- @ition to his machine gun, back to his @wn people. His record for the day's ‘Work was not only deemed sufficient to condone for his fishing escapade. but to his astonishment he received a fnedal for distinguished conduct in the field. “He was decorated!

Her kind eagerness, during one of her occasional visits ta the Whittiers, that Greenleaf should come to see her when he came to Bos- ton, fell in with his own dreams, and a high desire to see the sights of the great town. “One can easily imagine how this imagination ‘must have glorified the natural expectations of a country boy, and when the time arrived, how the whole household leit itself to further- ing ‘so -great ap expedition.

A. balloon, when it commences to burn does not €xplode, as a great many people seem to think.: An incendiary or tracer bullet, when it hits the bal- #?1oon, goes through it, making’ ‘rd! holes, of.course. As'the bullet is fir shim. where it escapes at these two holes. Hydrogen, or in fact anything, can burn only when {t-combines. with oxy- gen, and as the hydrogen escapes at the bullet Noles it combines withthe oxygen in the air, and burns like two gas jets. The holes-enlarge as the fabric is burned away and the flames grow larger until the whole balloon be- comes one mass of flame. As soon as enough hydrogen has ‘escaped to make the weight of the balloon greater than the weight of an equal volume of air the balloon starts to drop to the ground.—Lieut. H. K. Black, R. F.

Flax pulling is giving em- plosment to every hand that can be en- gaged, and factory workers, clerks and business inen are joining in this fidis-} pensable work. The’ cadet corps of the Royal Academical institute of Bel- fast is also engaged in pulling flax. Before the war the price paid for flax ranged fzom $1.50 to $2.50 per stone. 'Yhe highest price’ever paid for flax was $3 per stone in 1864, during the Civil war. This year the flax supply committee has arranged to take over the whole crop at prices ranging from $7.50 to $10 per stgne, according to quality. The flax will be divided into six grades.

The ques- tion was finally adjusted_to the satis- faction of one of them. when he an- nounced that the dog’ belonged to him because it smelled him first. ——<—<——$——— Land Girls’ Winter Outfit. ‘'The land girls’ winter outfit tras bees exercising the attentton of the Lon: don ‘ladies’ tailofs, .
