BELGIANS BARRICADED BEHIND BARRIERS OF WATER BATTLE BRAVELY TO BLAST "BOCHES" See H. G. BLYDENSTEIN i f 117 E. Court. Phone 35 4 4aaJkJwa (By Henry Wood, United Pren Staff Correspondent. ) WITH KIXG ALBERT'S ARMY IN BELGIUM, Dc. 15. (By mail.) Behind barriers of water that aro more Impassible than the itronifee'. barbed wire entanglements, the Bel gian army la holding its part of the western battlefront and training and waiting for the day when more of Belgium can be wrested from the en emy. The Belgian army which now holds all of Belgium not in Germany hands Is situated In perhaps the mopt unique fighting position of any of the belligerent forces. It is out of fight ing touch with the enemy except by artillery firing. For the most pari the Germans are a mile distant and Intervening, In place of No Man's Land, Is N0 Man's Water. The Bel gian system of "inundating defenses'' through the river Tser. the ywr ca nal and various Inundated district puts a unique harrier between the two forces. Armies Comidetolv KqulppVd. Thanks in part to the allies' help and In part to Belgium's own indom itable spirit and the Industry of her people, King Albert's army will not be obliged to suffer this winter the hardships and privations that fel' to Its lot during the first two winter of the war. The Belgium army has been completely equipped and outfit ted. In part the equipment has been furnished by the allies, yet a goodly portion Is due to the Belgians them selves. They have established numer ous factories not only on the remnant of Belgian soil still left to them, but also in France. These factories not only supply the troops, but give employment to thou sands of Belgian refugee Western Ran-tars Strong.

I i r- r x v -Ci - The Belgians are perfecting their army. The cavalry has been entirely remounted almost without excep tion on American horses bought large ly In TexaA That portion of Belgium which remains in possession of the Belgian army doesn't offer satisfac tory grounds for cavalry drill. There, fore the various Belgian cavalry di visions take turnB in drilling on French grounds, keeping up to the highest standards of efficiency while waiting for the time when they can participate In the redemption of Bel. gian soil. Artillery Branch Developed. The artillery branch has likewise been developed to a point where the Belgians can boast of perhaps the most formidable artillery strength ot any army of Its size in the world. The present war having demonstra ted the supreme role which artillery plays, the allies have seen to it that the Belgian army is quipped in the fullest po-slble manner. To their or. iginal field artillery the Belgians themselves were able to add a num ber of batteries from Portuguese fac tories anil France and England have added all their tpyes of heavy artil lery. I.wiih learned frtuu Ciornmns. No small contribution was also made to the Belgian artillery by the Germans themselves. When as a last resource In the fighting of 1914 the Belgians opened the floodgates tha: Inundated great portions of their soil, the Germans had to beat such a hasty retreat that they abandoned heavy and light artillery, since that time the perfection of the Belgian "inun dated defenses" has made it possible for the army to let off sufficient of the water to permit recovery of nearly all of this German artillery. It has been repaired' and a great deal of It is now effectively serving the Bel gians. If the allies have been generous In helping Belgium, the Belgian army has likewise been as gnerous to Its fighting comrades Since the "wa ter barriers" prevented close contad with the enemy. Belgium gave to Russia the famous armored automo biles which played such an important part for Belgium In the early days o( the war.

I'XBIIKAK ABLE GLASS. Glass that is transparent, yet un breakable, is the most recent Inven tion of interest to the householder. A ball that is thrown against one of these new window panes bounces back as it would from a stone wall; a brick cannot shatter it. Any heavy weight thrown full force against it repounds. with no flying glass as a result. This break-proof glass Is made of a sheet of white, transparent celluloid, twenty-one thousandths of p.n inch thick, placed between two pieces of glass. The glass and the celluloid are welded together under high temperature and tremenilous pressure, and the result is a solid sheet possessing all the transparency of the best phue glass, combined with the strength of a sheet of metal.
