NOISES OF WAR.
That the present w-r it a little' dif
ferent from all wars, a little louder
and altogether more severe, is the con
census of opiniion of writers, who go
into the details of experiences. Thi
following told by a correspondent to
the Democrat, tells of the noises ol
war in a thrilling manner:
It's a blatter and crash, a spit anc
creech, and "Hell let Loose" doesn'i
half describe the noise of combined
rifle, machine gun shell fire and bomb:
in this day and age," said a soldie:
back from the batilefront of North
ern France today.
"If anyone could properly describe
a modern battle Dante's picture of In
ferno would represent peace in con
trast." he added, explaining the sound:
that the modern soldier's ear has comi
to recognize.
' "German fire sounds different from
the British and there are a thousanc
different individual sounds to breal
the stillness. Distant rapid Tire re
minds one of the purring of a power
ful motor car. The German bulle:
"cracks" and the British sounds like
the bursting of a soft paper bag. Some
times a German bullet richocheting ii
the and "bizzes"; sometimes its light
ning flight sounds tike a man hal
whistling, half hissing 1 through hit
teeth. Glancing off metail it "pings'
then "screeches" until it stops. Passini
close by a bullet gives a "crack" and
it may deafen the nearest ear for days
Like their rifle shots the German ma
shine guns siund less mutfli-d thai
the Brititsh. They sound like the infi
nitely swift rapping of a door knock
er. Ours might be linked to a car;'
being beaten by very dexterous and
energetic spring cleaners armed with
canes.
"The sounds of shell fire are varied.
The German's "pipe squeak" and some
times scream "Little Willie." High
explosive shells are fickle; sometimes
they burst with a blinding flash and
little sound and again they crack like
a thunderbolt. Some shells "whirtle'
and some pass through the air like
moaning wind. Anti-aircraft guns
"ping-ping" and the bursting of their
shrapnel most often "clatters"; but if
it is lyddite it crashes like a collaps
ing brick smoke suck.
"Night sounds in tne trenches arc
many and varied. A sentry's trained
ears may catch the sound of shovel
ing with spades and the up of a mal
lot on wooden stakes. This comes
when the enemy's trench is near and
denotes that he is driving a sap, dig
ging an advance trench, or construct
ing wire entanglements. Sometimes
comes the whir of a dynamo. It is n
a sure sign that the enemy is work
ing an electrical trench digger. If the
trenches are close one may hear the
movements of enemy reliefs or rein
forcemcnts behind their lines. It is
generally possible to hear sounds of
-guns or transport being made. On
a quiet night this sound is audible
for miles. It's the same with the hu
man voice. The sentry is sometimes
greeted with good English from Ger
man trenches or with a song. The
strange sacred cries of flying lap
wings, the mewing of homeless cats
and the whining of dogs are but few
of the wierd sounds that greet the
lonely sentry at night. The novice
has often been rudely scared by the
snoring song of a soldier-pal at peace
with the whole world, the Germans
included.

A Republican paper back East says:
"Let's have a Wilson day and shout
his name from the housetops.''
- "Let's break down party lines and
thank God we've got such a man on
the job in Washington."
Hurrah for Woodrow Wilson, the
MAN.
