The marsh constitutes a natural barrier more effective than trenches, 1inst enemy attack. GRAVEIL CRUSHER-—An infantry- man, so named, it is explained. from his big feet. Another expression for dough-hoy- OLD SWATTI An old soldier. GALLOPER-—A staff officer, paTtic- ularly the general's aide de camp, so called because usually seen by the sol- diers riding at a gallop. Only general staff officers are mounted. “OLD MAN"—Universal term of affection for the colonel of the regi- ment. IRISH “DIE-HARDS —Sixth Dra goons of the British Army. At the battle of the Marne, only 69 men of this regiment came out of the fight of the 700 who went Inta it. BOMRB-PROOF—A safe job; same as “cushv.” That these jobs are not always as safe as they are said to be is shown by an incident related by a Canadian sergeant of a veteran of 20 vears' service who, having been sent back to work on the ammunition dumps after particularly hard service in the front-line trenches, was killed almast immediately by an enemy shell that landed on the dump DOING IN—Killing ISLAND TRAVERSF municating trench, where is broadened and dug in leaving the center untouched. This { land is about eight feet by 12 feet with the longer side facing down the com- municating trench. This serves two purposes: (1) defense s the island affords an excellent protection for a machine gun sweeping the approach from the fire-trench and thus cover- ing men wha may be driven from the front line in an attack, and (2) as a kind of switch, by which men going up to the front may pass those com- ing back with less difficulty than in | the narrow stretches of trenches. FLYING TRAVERS A roof of sod, gravel and earth, built over the communicating trench for a distance of perhaps 12 feet. The sod and earth are effective camouflage, and the distance of the traverse from the fire- trench is such that the entrance to this protected portion of the communi- cating trench is just out of range of vision of German outposts across No Man's Land, and instead of seeing sol- diers going under this false roof, they see only the roof and cannot distin- WARTIME LEXICON OF THE TRENGHES “Lingo of No Man’s Land” Civil- ian Doesn’t Understand i lingo of No Man's Land.” ght, 1918, British-Canadian Recruiting Mission) STAND-TO—Every evening at sun- set for half an hour, and again in the | marning at dawn, the order is given to “stand-to,” which means that every man stands alert, his pack on his back, his rifle loaded, facing the enemy in anticipation of a possible attack. After “standlng-to” the order is ‘‘stand down,” and the men may then go to their dugouts, leaving only the sen- | tries on duty STAND DOWN manding “'stand-to.’ PACKAG Another expression for a wound or ‘Blighty"—that is, a wound serious enough to take them home to England to recuperate. An- other version of the derivation of Blighty that the name of the Brighton hospital, especially for In- dian troops, was difficult for the In- dian soldiers to pronounce, their tongues changing the Br, which they could not pronounce, to Bl, and “Blighty” resulted. GOING OVER—The soldiers in the trenches say ‘‘going over” rather than “going over the top™” or “over the top.” GOING-IN—The short and ready phrase for ‘“‘going into the trenche: The opposite of “going out’” or ‘‘going out of the trenches.” ARCHIBALD -— Anti-aircraft guns. Term first bestowed, according to some of the British officers, from the name given the first anti-aireraft gun- ners, most of whom were Jews. SILENT LIZZIE—A thousand-pound shell that makes no noise and is very effective because there is no warning | of its approach. BERTHA—The 60-tan German gun, so called from Bertha Krupp, the manufacturer. This gun has a range of 10 or 12 miles and throws a 1,200- pound shell that the Tommies call “Jack Johnson” (already described). GGS-—Another term for bombs or grenades. KNUCKLE KNIVES—Heavy dag- gers about nine inches long, new part of every Allied soldier's equipment, for use in hand-to-hand fighting. The knives are heavy bayonet-like blades and knobbed hilts. They are carried in the puttees, as the Highlanders carry their knives in their socks. OPEN-UP—TUsual expression “beginning to fire STOKES GUNS—A very effective small gun used in the trenches. It has a range of from 50 to 300 vards, and fires a shell similar to a Mills hand grenade, operated by a release lever and a five-second time-fuse. The shell is of cast steel, weighs some 12 pounds and carries a charge ef ami- nol. The gun is operated by a spring and is so rapid in action that as many as ten shells may be in the air at one time. Unless the range between the front line trenches and the enemy is sufficient for the gun to be used in the fire trenches, it is usually worked from the second line trenches. GETTING WIND UP—Tommy says, when the Germans are so nervous and jumpy in expectatian of an attack that th begin firing without apparent cause—at shadows and imaginary ob- jects. A nervous sentry firing at a hadow he thinks is a man may set the whole line ablaze with shellfire over nothing. REGULATION STRAFING—Regu- lapr dally grist of shells sent over about the same time every day, without a apparent purpose of attacking or do- ing more than simply harrassing the enemy CHAW The order counters In a com- the trench a squdre, is guish it from the rest of the ground, while airplane guish Beriin News, scouts cannot distin- it from above.

The new artillery program | will include many 16-inch howitzers | mounted on trucke. Their manufac- | ture is likely to be undertaken by a | great interest not now engaged on | £uns, and deliveries are not counted | on before late 1919 or early 1920. ! This first week of the country’s | by the clearest indications yet given | that American steel output will at length he so far taken up by the | rovernment and its Allies as to leave | little for so-called ordinary uses either at home or abroad The vast enlargement of the na tion's offensive preparations that has come in the fortnight has already rred the machine tool trade. Great activity is looked for also from the doubling of the output of varfous shell plants, by government order, and the call for large numbers of motor trucks to be sent at once to France. Steel mills have been sure from Washington in the past week in an effort to have January and February shortages made up, particularly those in plates. The mills have had the help of & hetter car supply, which in the Pittsburgh dis- trict has been especialiy fortunate in view of the large proportion of out- put required by the government. The leading producer there has turned rearly 90 per cent of its recent pro- duetion into government and war con- tract channeis, and several plants in the same district that lately have given 60 to per cent of their pro- duction to such business are now con- siderably exceeding these figures. Great Britain’s call for 300,000 tons of ship steel is growing more urgent, and for part of this special consider- atlon has been ordered. A large or- der of shell steel for the Allies is also awaiting distribution. Meantime an arrangement has heen made under which the inguiries of Canadian roads tor 285,000 tons of rails will he with- drawn from the market. Much of this will be placed in Canada and mills here will relieve those in Can- ada of a large quantlty of shell steel. Every week's delay in the placing of the 100,000 cars that have long been scheduled at Washington in- creases the chances of repeating next winter the disastrous traffic hreak- down of January and February. Should these orders be given out to- morrow, weeks would be required for the manufacture of car appliances on which plants partly idle should now be at work. Precious time is being inst without good Steel i estimated at mor under pres- reason t production in March is than 3,525,000 tons, on the basis of returns from 29 com- panies making to 90 per cent. of the total. This represents an increase of 30 per cent. over the average for January and February, and is parallel with the remarkable recovery in pig- fron production. The chief item of interest in ship plates is the settlement under which 200,000 tons will go to Japan. Half of this is to covered by existing contracts, with much of the material now in storage on the Pacific coast ready for immediate shipment, and half is to be put through under new contrac A meeting of coke northern Ohio and western Pennsyl- vania will be held at ashington Thursd to arrange for supplying northern Ohio foundries with the Me- Kinney Steel Co.’s by-product coke, releasing Connellsville foundry coke for shipment castward.
