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.

established by law In Uruguay.
