But the Wilkes-Barr- e settlement strongly contrasted with the Guild's turbulent campaign against the Brook lyn "Eagle," where 300 employes out of 2,300 have been noisily on strike for nine weeks. The "Eagle," first major New York City paper to be struck by the Guild, has been attacked not only frontally by aggressive picketing but on the flank by a Guild campaign directed at "Eagle" advertisers. At Brooklyn's Abraham & Straus department store a Guild demonstrator in a gorilla suit dashed up and down escalators until women's wild shrieks brought police.

Familiarity with the characteristic sounds caused by various devices will often make it a simple matter to locate and eliminate the source of the trouble. Loose connections of reading lamps or light bulbs may cause a series of annoying clicks. Clicking can also be caused by a nearby, flashing electric e:gn or even by dialing or jiggling the hook of tho telephone. Heating pads and .thermostatic devices such as automatic electric irons and the heater for tho tropical fish aquarium sometimes produce both clicks and roaring sounds.

I. D." (Proposed Infantry Division) of the U. S. Army, under consideration by the War Department for two years, was tested for the first time under combat conditions. Consequence of the Texas manuevers, which started two months ago, is likely to be a wholesale reorganzia-tio- n of the U. S. Army. During the War, an infantry division consisted of about 22,000 men, divided into two infantry brigades of two infantry reg iments each, one field artillery brigade usually of three regiments all moving mainly on foot. Two years ago, U. S. Chief of Staff Malin Craig decided that engineering and mechanical progress had made the infantry division obsolete, asked his staff for a report on a new unit to embody all changes in power, transport and armament mechanization since the War. Result of his demand, the P. I. D. consists of 13,500 officers and men, contains three unbrigaded Infantry regiments, one artillery regiment of four battalions. Most important characteristics of the P. I. D. is its ability to march entirely on wheels. Slogging along on foot, an old style division does well to cover 18 miles a day; but the P. I. D. last week covered 326. When reports of its maneuvers have been studied at Washington, the War Department may abolish the old style division entirely, streamline the whole army in similar units if and when it $395.00 can get the money to cover the prodigious cost. Not to be confused with ordinary corps area maneuvers, held annually, the Texas war games started when the first completely motorized division in U. S. Army history encamped at Fort Sam Houston under the command of Major General James K. Parsons. First Bix weeks were devoted to a series of Imaginary battles against a "Red" Army. The P. I. D., split up into small details, functioned successfully in attack, retreat, flank and encirclement maneuvers. On November 8, after a breakfast of 12,000 apples, 24,000 eggs and 560 lbs. of coffee, the P. I. D.'s men set out from San Antonio in three columns to bivouac grounds 150 miles farther North. Two successive night marches, made in complete darkness except for the lights of cars leading columns, enabled it to catch g the Red army at Mineral Wells. P. I. D. roundly defeated it in a sham engagement of which one result wa3 the capture of real horses and mules for which the P. I. D. had no earthly use. Next day, its task accomplished, the "streamlined division" turned back to San Antonio. In one huge serpentine column 65 miles long and moving at a speed of m.p.h., tln p. I. v:b 1,180 supply trucks, passenger cars, motorcycles, reconnaissance cars, trucks and baggage trailers roared over the 326 miles in record time of 12 hours 55 minutes. 10,-0- 00 slow-movin- 30-3- 5 anti-aircra- ft Plant Experimenter Gregor Johann Mendel died in in a monas1884, aged sixty-twtery, years before anyone realized that he left a notable contribution to natural knowledge.
