Well, at this commencement we were talking of awhile back, there were several class reunions, says the PipvplanH Plain Deader. Dozens of old grads were back and ti:ey talked a lot about themselves and a lot more about others not so fortunate as to attend "Most of our old crowd are married and happy," said one. "Married, anyhow," said another with a grin that always Accompanies this silly joke. "I accept the amendment," returned the first 'speaker, "but chiefly on ac-; count of poor Billy Tompkins. He had an unfortunate marital experience." We hadn't neard of it and begged for particulars. "Why, the girl he married turned out to be a professional pickpocket." The man who had first spoken sighed, but his eyes twinkled. "Well," he observed, "I guess the rest of us drew some pretty clever amateurs?what ?" A Two-speed Machine. In t):e lobby of a Hotel tney were speaking about speed fiends, the Philadelphia Telegraph says, and Congressman Wyatt Aiken of South Carolina, recalled a story about Jones. One afternoon Jones was rambling along the boulevard when he ran across friend Smith. Handshake and then some talk, which included the war, the weather and automobiles. "By the way," said friend Smith, recollectively, "I hear that you have been buying a machine." "Yes." Droudlv admitted Jones. "1 brought her tome about two weefc3 ago." "Some speed of course," returned friend Smith. "How fast can the machine go?" "Well," answered Jones, with a smile that was half sad, "it depends altogether on who is timing it, myself or a country constable?* "Smnk?,nf Battle" in Modern TTar fare. One of the marked features of the European conflict that distinguishes it from the wars of the past is t?e absence of smoke on the firing lines. Owing to the use of smokeless powder, no smoke is made when a rifle is discharged, while the heaviest artillery throws off nothing more than a fcbin mist that is invisible a hundred yards away and disappears within a few seconds after the gun is fired. Only when shrapnel or a shell explodes in the enemy's lines is there anything visible in the way of smoke, the whole purpose being to conceal the position of the guns throwing the projectiles while making the points where the projectiles explode clearly visible. The expression, "the smoke of battle," so faithfully descriptive of the wars of the past, has little meaning when applied to a modern war.?From the August PopularNMechanics Magazine.

Tie value of candy :s recognized by military authorities, rne Jtsnusn suiciers in France are reported' as consuming "prodigious quantities of sweets." A captain at the front with the British army reports that tine canteen has "five times the demand for sweets that was expected, and onegftl'i the demand for beer." The Australians encamped in Egypt have eaten all the chocolate to be had in Cairo." Scientists contend that sugar has mnr.h food value and is a good -substi tute for alcohol. Chocolate, for ex-1 ample, is harmlessly stimulating. Soldiers have discovered what scientists knew before, that sugar will relieve fatigue quickly and give a 'sense of strength that is real without the subsequent depression experienced by t). ose who use spirits. Sugars and candies are found to be useful not only fr> the Dhvsically tired, but to those who suffer mental exhaustion. Those Greeks Again.

There are lots of persons living right in ti-is big city who might well envyj the life of ease that some of the dogs at the Garden lead.

The most amazing sight is our experience was tJ:e United States servicc bullet with its speed of 2,700 feet per " second. Here we saw the bullet itself, not flying particles. The sun was low over the eastern hills. Its rays came ^ through a break In the ridge bordering A. - -C A the range, lignting up mosi 01 mr course of the bullet up to t'-e target ^ 200 yards away, but leaving the target . and the firing point in deep shadow. t The first bullet was seen by some one, J and not a man present missed the strange sight later on. The appearance was a very brilliant silvery flash, as vivid and quick as a flash of lightning. But two things are necessary to see bullets fly, a dark background, and tine sun at right angles to its course.
