Stories From the War Zone BY WILJJAM PHILIP SIMS. (United Pre Staff Correspondent.) PARIS. (By Mail ) "April Showers Bring May Flowers." You know that Dor, don't you? Well try this one on your vocal chords: "January's suns Bring February guns!" The German Crown Prince first made the practical application of this truth, but the proverb is ours, like wise) the versification, school histories of 2016 to the contrary notwithstand ing A close study of the battle of Ver dun proves it to have been a freak of nature, like January strawberries, or peach blossoms in December. The battle of Verdun was planned for April or May, but In the German military plans there was an "unless.' which, when followed by the remain der of the sentence read: "L'nless by some strange atmospheric phenome non wet get a long spell of fine, dry weather before that time." True to Teutonic traditions of pre paredness, as early as December the Germans began bringing up material for use in the attack. Kvrry avail able big howitzer, including the 305's and the 420'n, was hauled to the Ver don sector through which the Crown Pnii. . hoprd to make a breach and commence a march on Paris down the historic poplar lined roads following the banks of the Marne. Trenches were dug, ammunition In vast quanti ties were stored at strategic points and everything put In ship shape for springing the big offensive. Then the January sun BSJIM out. Rarest Sf all rarities In France, a mid. winter dry spell came accompanied by lot of spring-like days and sunshine Prom January li until past the mid dle of February one would have thought Ma at hand The "strange atmospheric phenomenon" had come to pass, snd t he decision to let fly was the result According to German prls cners lhey had been told on the eve or the battle "The artillery is going to blase the was for you. It will do its work com pletely that all you will have to do will be to march at parade step into Verun." They were told, they said, that the fighting would not amount to much and it would all be over In no time. Judging from what the German sol diers admit, the Crown Prince's plans must have included a swift punch and a quick victory, with Verdun and out lying forts as a minimum, in German possession. Otherwise, experts are agreed, probably he never would have undertaken the Verdun attack. For, to plan long drawn out operations in which artillery is the mainstay, said operations to lie largely dependent J upon the foibles of the weather, is more stupid than foolhardy. So It was that the January suns (brought the February guns as per the jcute little poem. Pretty weather and jdaffydowndillies having had the tem jcrity to intrude on the preserves of January and February, the Crown ! Prince railed his staff about him and Isald: "Let's surprise everybody by pull :lng off our April party in February jboya. It'll take only a couple of days Of so to get to Verdun and then If it I rains, who cares." o the big battel about Verdun was Ml rjecause 01 a little, nice, warm sun shine which forgot Its cue and made its entrance too soon. The cathedral at Parral Is one of the most impressive in the state and is also one of the oldest. In Interest, however, It Is matched by the Church Santa Maria de Jesus, a short distance away, which is of unusual beauty. The estores of the town flank two sides of the plaza. They are modern well-built shops of masonry and pos ter construction. On another side 's the city hall, and on the fourth Bide is the former home of Francisco V. Madero's father. It was only used by the Madero family, however, during their rather infrequent visits to the mining prop erties which they controlled there. Their real home was In the city ot Chihuahua. 12" miles north. Vegetation Is sparce In the sur rounding country, but In the plaza It self there Is an abundance of troplr.il foliage, artistically planted and care-! fully taken tare of by the city au thorities. A number of fountains tend to cool the atmosphere. In the center of the plaza there Is a bandstand ami concerts aer given nearly every night during favorable weather. In and near the town are very old and productive silver mines, nearly all of which are now in the hands of Am erican interests. Eight-hour working Says have been established by law In Uruguay.
