JULIUS CAESAR A FAVORITE Activity of Caesar in Rhine Valley Makes Translations of His Gallic, Wars of Interest to Soldiers Legends Also Popular. Coblenz. Tales , of adventure in the American -West are the favorite read ing matter of the American forces in Germany, and Zane Grey is the most popular author. Strangely enough, Julius Caesar runs a close second with- tne aougn boys, who are very keen about trans lations of Caesar's activities in the Rhine valley and the ruins of a bridge he built across the. Rhine, which lifts Caesar's work out of the schoolbook class and makes it a guidebook that carries the Americans back nearly 2,000 years. . , Books which describe the legends centering about - the Rhine are alo popular, especially with the soldiers who are musically inclined and who attend the Wagnerian performances given by the various German grand opera companies which play in Co logne, Coblenz, Wiesbaden and the other cities near the Rhine frequented by soldiers on leave.. - Like Story Magazines. All-story magazines which special ize in adventures are more popular with the American soldiers than any other periodicals, and the American Library association has been unable to supply the demand for publications of this sort. With the assistance of the Young Men's Christian association, which aids in the distribution of reading ma terial in the American area, Miss Ala Weyth, who is in charge of the Amer ican Library association's reading rooms, has been able to make a gen eral poll of the reading taste of the army and finds that foreign residence has not won the young Americans away from fiction laid in America, par ticularly In the West. The American Library association has about 30,000 books available for Americans, French, Belgians and Eng lish residents of the occupied area, and also has circulated many books by mail to Americans living in other parts of Germany.

Experts Hunt Among Freshmen for Material for Likely Journalists and Machinists. Madison, Wis. Psychological tests of ability for machine shop work evi denced by freshmen in the college of engineering are being undertaken by the department of psychology at the University of Wisconsin. , The results of the .tests are being computed by students in vocational psychology as a part of their work in preparing to become- employment managers.

M. C. A. With the beginning of 1021, the American Library association turned its books over to Jhe Y. M. C. A. and is no ' longer supporting the work.' The main library in Coblenz was formerly a German oflicers' club and is ideally suited to library purposes. It has a great ballroom, which, makes an excellent reading room, - and . also has sun parlors and large drawing rooms, with many windows. Many Germans have asked for the privilege of using the library, but. this has been denied, as the army did not think It advisable. One German told the li brarian he had lived many , years In America and should really be allowed to have " books, because " he was an American "in principle." Toxie Candles As War Diphenylchlorarsine Develops Va por Which Penetrates Gas Masks, Says Expert. SMOKE CANDLES ARE USEFUL Conceal Movements of Small Groups of Men Close at Hand British De veloped Candles Which Were Used by All the Allies. Philadelphia. Toxic smoke candles, recently developed, will have an ex tensive use in future wars, in the opin ion of i;. I. Shaw of the internal bu reau of mines, who recently spoke on "Smoke and Incendiary Material" be fore the Franklin institute.- "Smoke candles, so called," he said, "are small cylindrical boxes which are ignited by -some sort of friction de vice, and which contains smoke pro ducing mixtures. Their use is In set ting up a smoke screen close at hand, for after ignition they are simply set on the ground, not being thrown or Opera Director tests will be given -for several succes sive years to determine whether it is possible to discover latent newspaper talent through psychology tests. r The system of giving psychological tests, instead of regular entrance ex aminations to students who wish to enter a university, has been tried in several universities. The idea is that a student who has a good mind, but has Insufficient or inferior high school training, may be advised as tp the lines of study-for which he isbect fitted. In this -regard, the University of Wisconsin is giving more specific tests than most other universities. By giv ing a dozen or more tests for the same results, the psychologists at the uni versity are determining which tests are best. In a small series of tests already conducted, however, the re sults do not correspond well with the scholastic records- of the students tested.

New York. Two thousand geese, ducks, and chickens, awaiting death . In a poultry shop, chorused an alarm for fire' that caused heavy property loss in eleven . retail clothing and food stores In the Bronx. The unusual squawking awakened residents of the neighborhood and at tracted a policeman, who telephoned fire headquarters. The blaze was con trolled by firemen after a two-hour fight. r . Oil projected In any way. The need Is very apparent to make the movements of small groups of men close at hand possible. Tried by British. "The British, early In the war, de veloped very satisfactory smoke can dles which were used-by all the al lies. The Americans. also developed a candle which was satisfactory, but which did not get. into production and use In France before the armistice. The smoke Is normally white, must have maximum capacity and be cool enough to prevent the setting up of air currents and thus rise from the ground. It must be heavy so as to be displaced by the minimum amount of wind at low velocity. These require ments are admirably met by candles which produce a smoke consisting of zinc chloride. - "As regards the future of incendiary material, my own opinion, which opin ion, however, is substantiated by at least some of the military critics, is that incendiary material, except for small arms and long range shell and drop bombs, will have at least a lim ited, and, perhaps, no use. The flame projectors will probably never be used in a future war. Smoke "material, on the other hand, will have a very exten sive and ever-Increasing use. By the use of the smoke screen during an at tack the casualties can be largely re duced. New Use of Smoke. There was in progress, of develop ment by the British and Americans during the latter part of thewar smoke candles which would give a toxic smoke. The toxic material em ployed was diphenylchlorarsine. Di phenylchlorarsine is a solid which va porizes in the heat of the candle and is obtained in such a state of division that it will penetrate most gas masks. Such toxic smokes, of which there will probably be others developed, will find a very extensive use in the future. It Is the greatest step made thus far in the new use of smoke." There Was She, Waiting. Flora, Ind. Fred Rhodes awoke at his home several miles out In the coun try to find the roads blocked by snow drifts.

I "Let's Go" is Foremost Among Slogans of War Washington. "Let's go,'V. was the chief battle slogan" of the American array In the world war.

HALL'S CATARRH MEDICINE is a constitutional remedy. Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an in flamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entire ly closed, Deafness is the result. Unless tne inflammation can be reduced, your hearing may be destroyed forever.
