Spectators outside of actual mem-
bers and unfamiliar with military
operations, expressed complete sur-
prise at the elaborate but very quick
and efficient manner in which effec-
tive artillery fire is brOUght to bear
upon unfriendly troops. They said
they had no idea of the amount of
mathematical calculating and "tricks
of the trade" that are brought into
play during an artillery attack.
Some very good ideas of calculat-
ing the range was given through an
illustrated drawing.

calved a diploma. of graduation from

New Machinery
Aids. In Lifting
Train Windows
Opening railroad car windows is
a perennial problem the solution to
which has now been found in a de-
vice now in use on cars recently
purchased by the New Haven Rail-
road for use on some of. its commut-
ing lines. The windows on these cars
are equipped with a. patended ~self-
starting sash look by means of which
great leverage is exerted upon the
window and the job of opening it
made easy.
To look at. the locks on these
windows are much like those on
every other car window. .but closer
examination reveal a small plunger
about a quarter of an inch in dis.-
meter projecting downwards to-
ward the sill. It is this “plunger
which save tempers and performs
the work of raising the window. A
slight pressure on the thumb piecin-
oi the window springs a catch which
applies a leverage of 150 pounds
upon the plunger. thus starting the
window army from the sill at the
some instant it is unlocked. Since
there are two of these plunger-s. one
on each side of the window. the
force obtained is :00 pounds.
The pressure is sufficient to guar-
obstinate train stingy.

The Evening Sentinel welcomes
contributions to the brief column
or to any other column in the

offerings have to be rejected be-
cause of tho carelessness of the

Many people fail to write
names logibly and an item with-
out a. name is not usable.
Many people write on both
sides of the paper. Such mnticr
cannot be used until it has been
recopiod in The Sentinel ofileo
