CAF!f.Y CITE TO TROOPS For Every D03 Who Die; on Field ef Honor, France Considers It Has Saved the Life of a Soldier Messen ger Dogs Are Caref.illy Trained for Their Useful and Dangerous Duties. The dug pounds of France are con tributing :ui element to the deadly trench warfare thut is old as conttlct and, at the s.ime time, modern iu its cutivitum and uchicv viuont. Kvery dog pound in the republic Is contributing every canine It picks up. nnu numerous breeding societies are furnishing regular o."'ta.i, but still tlogs are needed to till u very great and grow lug need. So many diverse duties have been developed for dogs In this war that practically every canine, provided he Is Intelligent enough to be trained, can be utilized. A deg Kennel large enough for training hundreds of dogs Is a regit lar part of the einiiinueiit of every French annv now. It turns out trained animals for front service. Originally dogs were used for just two purpose currying Hid to the wounded and hccoihi nnylng patrols to "scent out" the enemy. The llelgiiins have always hud a third duly that of training dogs to draw machine guns. But the highly specialized art of war today has resulted In Huiplltientlon of these duties. Two of Ihe must im portant roles now played by canines "liason" Work and sentinel service can be said to have utuiineu supreme Importance. Play Useful Part. "Liason" dogs lmve the most dan gerous and the most useful parts to ploy. They carry messages between attacking troops and batteries to the rear, which shield the troops by bar rage fire. The Intensity of .enemy counter-barrages to prevent this kills hundreds of (Jogs, but still tunny trained uninmls slip through. For every dog who dies 011 the Meld of honor France considers it has saved the life of the soldier messenger, who otherwise would have to do thu work. Many dogs who fall to show apti tude for "liason" work develop into excellent sentinels. Those particular ly fitted for this work take their place at Ihe top of the trench along side the gun barrel of their master and detect every patrol or every In dividual soldier thut attempts passage of the barbed wire entanglements ahead. Dog are still trained and used to carry aid to the wounded.

Their watchfulness enables blui to sleep. Ambulance dogs are required to dis cover the wounded and to go and Itnd the ambulances. The dugs carry to the latter the cap of the wounded mnn or some object Indicating the unit to which he belonged. Other dogs, differ ently trained, call ambulances to the wounded by means of prearranged cries. All those dogs carry a little wallet containing a llask and various rough dressings for first aid. They are accustomed t" cover till sort try, to clear nil obstacles am no fear of cannon or shell lire. Proved Their Value. They have proved themselves valu able since the declaration of war and for three years they have carried out their laborious and perilous work with the ambulances to which Ihey are at tached In the most heavily bombarded districts. Dogs, as a rule, show great distress when shells hurst near them and howl piteously. (in the other hand, they have been known to dash along the top of a trench during Infantry lire, harking at the smoking muzzle, sharp ly examining puffs of dirt thrown tip by enemy bullets ami apparently en joying the noise.

HUGE "SUBWAYS" AID BYNG'S DRIVE I j Engineers Work for Months Pre' paring the Way. PLAN ATTACK AS SURPRISE Tunnels Constructed From Bases Many Miles in Rear Directly to Advanced Trenches Batteries of Great Gune and Huge Trench Mortars Sent For ward by the Underground Routes- Attack l Surprise. Intensive developments In tunneling subways and other forms of subter ranean passages contributed largely to the smashing success of the tirst phase of the British offensive conducted by the Third army, under tieneral Sir Ju lian Byng, who was In command of the 111 fated forces at Oallipoll In WIS. Through Indefatigable labor cover ing a period of several months the British army's engineering forces con st ructed a series of tunnels comparable to New York's four track subway lines from bases many miles In the rear di rectly to their advanced trenches, at Intervals along Ihe forty-mile front se lected for the attack. It was deemed prudent to adopt this method of preparation In place of tho hitherto Invariable artillery bombard ment. Several factors Induced the s of coun- I adoption of the new formula for offen id to have slve tactics. In the ilrst place, one of the prin cipal defensive features of the llln dciibiirg line was the fosse, or tunnel, running the whole length of the sec ondary defensive position, with anten nae running rearward at Intervals. This enabled the Oermnus to shift and transport troops, munitions and even light pieces underground. Secondly, the condition of the ter rain over which the battle was to be fought was nucli that It was Infinitely better that It he kept solid, dry and nrtn for the aiWance of the attacking units, Instead of being pounded to a bog of mud and slime by the tremen dous hammering of tliotisnnds of shells. Surprise Attack. Thirdly, It was of the utmost value that the thrust should he n surprise attack, as It was well known that the Oorninn high command believed firmly tbnt Sir Iouglns llnlg's attention was concentrated on the Ypres sector. (Ii iicral Tlyng's victory was won on the battlefield chosen by von Uluden Imrg when ho retreated to the famous "line" which bears his name In Febru ary and March last. As the German troops fell back they systematically devastated the riiiinfry, felling trees. blowing up whole forests, dynamiting villages and removing every crumb ami vestige of cover for advancing troops from the map. They left the zone of operations bare and naked to the view of their observers on ridges In the Tear. In captive "sausage" bal loons and airplanes.

The underground routes leading to- I ward the front were no tortuous sub- j terriinean passages with tiny, narrow ig uge railways and little cars haulud I by mules pulling a few shells to each load. Instead they were fine, largo, well ventilated and lighted subways, with standard gauge railways Inside and whole train:, propelled by clec trieity. currying shells, food and other munitions up toward the front. By Underground Routes. Fntlrc batteries of the greatest guns ever used In history, as well as the gi gantic trench mortars evolved by posi tion warfare, were sent forward by thx underground routes, mid men In the trenches were relieved h.v fresh divis ions, who traveled In Style on the sub way trains. !,nter. on the eve of the attack, whole regiments of cavalry were sent through the tunnels on the heels of the greul tanks that lumbered through and held themselves In readi ness to start forward.

TAKEN PRISONER BY HUNS Nurses German Wounded With Same Care She Had Shown Her Own Exchanged and Sent Back to France It Comes Her Turn to Suffer, and From Thlt Comes Romance Just Culminated. Paillette Colly U married, and her marriage brings to light the details of her heroic and romantic career of the last three years us presented by the foreign news bureau of Ihe woman's committee of the council of national defense. I'tittl l'sttlette was twenty-two years old, she lived In the village of Angrese In Dordegne with her two sisters and three brothers a happy, contented, wealthy family of farmers, who had lived unmolested on the same land for many genera Hons. Nothing more settled, more tranquil than such a life can ho Imagined, surely not here In America, where we can form no realization of the effect of such long habit and custom as iniluences every phase of the peasant's life. And Then the War Came. And then when she was twenty-two the war ciinie. Seventeen days after war broke out she was at a hospital at Anteull, a volunteer Tied Cross nurse In a formation of Ktigltsh and Italian women. A11 year she continued In (he wear ing but grateful duties of u nurse. FIr group hud citation for heroism at Creuy, Notre Dame de I.orette, and Neuvllle Saint Vaast. In 1915 her ambulance was In the sector nt Notre Dam de l.orette. The battle came close to them, then enclosed them. Paillette and seven of her companions, were taken prisoner by the fiertnnns. For 4S hours they were within the en emy lines, and tmrsed (loi tnan wound ed with the same care they bad shown their own. Fortunately they were ex changed and sent back to their dear France. On their return from being prisoner!, they were given the Croix de Guerre. I'aulette took up her work again at once, unci lu into was at Verdun. She was also at the tunnol at the Forest of Oorbeaux, and ninny other places thut have become famous la history where the fighting wm hot test, and consequently the work of the nurses the hardest. She nunwd hun dreds fif prisoners with equal ear, tenderness and devotion, but one man.

Her Turn to Suffer, By this time, an Paillette herself anld, very simply : "It cmne my time to suffer." She succumbed to ty phoid fevtr, and during her convales cence she had nppendlcltli. Tt meant five aud a half weary month la hospital for the active young mine. Hut when the Ave and a half month! were over, and Paulette wa! able- to be out again, Reno Ilrlchsn had learn ed to write with his left hand, and had secured the position he bad formerly had with a bank, They have just been married, and It Is absolutely certain that they should live happily ever after. They have had the complete story book be ginning to their romance, and It la no more than fair that they should round out the plot. WANT SOAPLESS DAYS New War Propaganda by Young Vir ginia Lad. A new war propaganda that Is cer tain to he taken up enthusiastically by young America was given a start In Huntington, W. Va., by Jimmy Wallen, a schoolboy, who has been active lu the different war activities. Wallen, who U always spick und span, suggest! a "soaplesM day," saying It Is easy to keep clean without using soap one day a week. The "Himpless day" would help conserve fats mo badly needed by the iilllei, Jimmy declared. HOPS A TOBACCO SUBSTITUTE Germans Find They "Act and Taste" Much Like Real Weed.
