SINGING PRAISES OF GUNS AND PLANES British Army Jubilant Over Cap- ture ol Loos (Correspondence of the Associated Press.) British Headquarters, France, Oct. 28.—Since the taking of Loos all the army is singing the praises of the guns and the planes. No such bombard- ment had ever been heard on the British front as that which preceded the attack. There seemed no intervals hetween the reports of the guns; not even those of the beat of a snare drum. The roar had the power and continu- ity of Niagara Falls. House windows in the surrounding country kept up a continuous rattle. Sweetest Sound In World. “Is it the sweetest sound in the world,” said one of the surviving vet- erans of the retreat from Mons. “It means you will get into the German trench and have a fair fight of it and you won't charge into the play of the machine guns or be hung up in the barbed . wire. A year ago when we held the Germans back from the channel ports we were doing it with flesh and blood against the outnum- bering German artillery. The most comforting sight in the world is an eight-inch howitzer; and next to that is a motor truck loaded with high ex- plosive shells.” As morning approached after the night of bombardment, officers on the British front were looking at their wrist watches. In front of Loos the figure six marking the half hour— half past six—was the goal of the creeping minute hand. At that mo- ment a wave of men rose from the first line British trenches, and the volume of shell-fire was lifted from the first line German to the second OUR STORE IS RELIABLE and every statement made regarding | our merchandise is actual and posi- | tive truth. | WE WANT YOUR TRADE | Larpets, TRusgs, Linoleums, Wall Papers, Draperies, Upholsteries.

It only one machine gun can be stopped in that immediate section. It is all a matter of wrist watches, of speed, team play and of seconds. With the first flush of dawn the birds of war had come from their aerodromes. The shell-fire and the planes were all that the onlooker might see. Eight Planes To One. “I should think that we had eight planes that day to one of the Ger- said an aviator. ‘““We had concentrated planes as well as guns.” Only when the secret of the point of concentration is kept can such an attack succeed against a modern de | fensive position. The Germans had learned that the British were pre- paring an attack: for their soldiers called out from their trenches to the British: “When are yon coming?” to | which one Briton replied: “I'll let You know as soon as Sir John French | observed to slip down like a | The sooner they were in the German | as it ever was. Only was never so difficylt.” Moved At Night. Troops and guns had to be moved at night when the German planes might not note the concentration. British planes must ward off German planes by day. Infinite labor and plains in detail are required, of hundreds of thou- sands of men for such an attack. That of the medical corps alone is | stupendous. On the morning of the | attack beds were ready; and the count- less ambulances and the clearing sta- tions and all the intricate organiza- tion for caring for the wounded ready. As the attack proceeded a veritable | flock of planes was cutting circles ! and dipping and turning over the bat- tlefield as if in an exhibition of air- | manship. They appeared to be dis- ! connected with the battle; but no participant was more busy or intent than they. All the panorama of ac- tion was beneath them; they alone could really ‘“see” the battle if they chose. But each aviator stole only passing glimpses of the whole; for each one was intent on his part which was to keep watch of whether the shells of the battery to which be re- ported were on the target or not. To distinguish whose shell-burst was whose in the midst of that cloud of dust and smoke over the German positions seemed as difficult as to sep- arate the spout of steam from one pipe from anothér when a hundred were making a wall of vapor. All For Aerial Service, Every youth in England apparently wants to get into the aerial service. So the corps has its pick. Promotion is rapid; the romance and the excite- ment of the work appeal. It is easy to learn to fly in the very stable lat- est types of machines which, as the saying goes, are ‘“‘fool-proof.” It ‘takes only two months to train a man with aptitude to do the routine work of reconnaisance. But he must be ! young. Men do not learn readily aft- er they are thirty, with few excep- tions, and they are very poor pupils indeed after they are thirty-five. Tt is not difficult to spot shells when | only a few batteries are. firing but | when perhaps a hundred guns are | dropping shells on a half mile front | of trench a highly trained eye s, required. Occasionally a plane was ' hawk | Wwhich had located a fish in the water. | concealment At all hazards that intrepid aviator was going to identify the shell bursts of the batteries which he represented. The Germans might have him in rifle range but they were too busy trying to hold back the English in- fantry to fire at him. Other planes were dropping shells on railroad trains and bridges, to hin- der the Germans once thrzy had learned where the force of the at- tack was to be exer:zG from rushing reinforcements to the spot. For that kind of work as for all long recon- naisancés the aviators like low-lying clouds. They slip down out of these to have a‘'look around and drop a bomb and then rise to cover up before the Germans can bring their anti- aircraft guns to bear. The first thing was. to hold what was taken in this advance. All the labor of turning the wrecked German into British trenches, of making new dugouts, traverses and parapets and laying out barbed-wire had to be done before the German concentrating swept back in a counterattack which was expected and which came. A Niagara of German gunfire added to that of the British announces another German effort. So far the British have held their new positions; and when the Germans were attacking in one part of the line the British re- pulsed the German attack and took five hundred yards from the Ger- mans in an adjacent part. LOOKING FOR WORK Everywhere nfen complain about work; even boys and girls in school or business find work tedious and irk- some, but it isn’t the work half so much as thelr own lack of physical strength that makes it hard. Rich blood, strong lungs and health- ful digestion make work pleasurable in business, in school or even house- work, and if those who are easily tired —who are not sick, but weak and ner- vous—would just take Scott’s Emul- sion for one month and let its pure concentrated food create richer blood to pulsate through every artery and vein—let it butld a structure of healthy tissue and give you vigorous strength —you would find work easy and would look for more.

Somewhere between the ages of forty and fifty years, every woman's system has to undergo important functional changes that are seldom understood and rarely prepared for. Few realize that during this changing time they are subject to many phy- sical and mental trials that will tax their nerves and strength to the breaking point and may easily leave them semi-invalids and nervous wrecks. To the woman whose nervous sys- tem is already weakened, this period is doubly dangerous, as in this con- dition she is more easily affected by disorders which her now overtaxed organs are unable to throw off. Wom- en during this changing age need and must have some quick acting and harmless remedy that, taken into their systems, will strengthen and invigorate their overworked nerve cells and help them to stand up un- der the trying strain. Wonderfully effective results are given in such conditions by the simple use of Margo Nerve Tablets a skilltul combination of six of the best vita- lizing elements known to modern chemistry. These little tablets con- tain no dangerous habit-forming drugs and are entirely harmless in their action but they act quickly to build up and strengthen the entire nervous system by feeding directly to the tired, devitalized nerve cells, in artificial form, the very necessary elements of which nature is depriv- ing them. If your nmerves are worn out, if you have lost confidence, feel blue, are despondent and all tired our, Margo Nerve Tablets will help you at once. Clark and Brainerd, New Britain, and other leading druggists in this vicinity sell them with the positive guarantee that they must produce the beneficial results ex- pected or the money paid for them will be refunded. _—_———— “BILL” GETS CONGRATULATIONS. “Billy” Hanna who prompted the boxing exhibition Tuesday evening at the armory, is the recipient of many congratulations from lovers of boxing, due to his capable management of the affair which was pronounced suc- cess.
