Sniping among thé Germans is a fine art, and those detailed to do this {work are almost diabolically clever in their methods of concealment. They decorate themselves with the foliage of trees, darken their faces {and hands, or splash their uniforms with oil or dirt, so that standing un- der the speckled shadow of a tree they look like part 'of the scenery. They are very careful, too, not to give themselves away by the direc- tion of their shots. The sniper never shoots straight before him, but always in a slanting direction and for fairly long dis- | tances to the right or left, so' that he need not look over the object which obscures him from the trenches di- rectly in front of him, but can shoot almost parallel with this obejct with- out exposing himself at all. In this method of firing he is helped by the fact that the firing line is never | straiglft- for more than two hundred j yards or so, but zigzags. In some cases it almost seems as if a sniper had managed to get be- hind our trenches, for men are of- ten hit in the back. This is, how- ever, very easily explained. If our firing line zigzags from south to north and back again to south in a sort of sprawling hairpin bend, some of the men standing in the trench {will be looking towards the sniper while others will have their backs to him. Tle sniper, shooting aslant, anfl papfllel to the portion of our i trgnch/ nearest to him, fires over the men facing him, into the trench the other side of the bend. The Turco-German snipers in Gal- lipoli render their shots noiseless by a yery simple device which our men call a "silencer." It consists of two small brass tubes one within the oth- er which are attached to the muzzle |of the rifle. The space between the tubes is filled with a ring of steel | springs. When the rifle is discharg- ed the air expelled from it 'forces these springs outward, and by so do- ing wastes its impact and loses its sound.--Tit-Bits. | TAKE HOLD OF THE ROPE Bt tt eee London Advertiser.

From opposite sides of thé political fence Sir Wilfrid Laurier and Hon. Mr. Blondin have been selected as res presentatives of the indifferences if not actually opponents of recruiting work. Sir Wilfrid Laurier is on re- cord in' ho unequivocal way. Speak- ing at St. hin on August 8th, he de clared that he fully supported the rope. Then, as reported, he added: "I speak with all the authority I; possess as leader of the Liberal party when I proclaim the fact that I am behind the Canadian Government in this policy. . That was straight as it could be, and he supported it with advice that it has been declared, helped the work of recruiting. Nor was this the only. occasion on which the lead- er of the Opposition declared himself on' the issue. The same day that Sir Wilfrid Laurier so spoke at St. Lin, Hon. Mr. Blondin addressed a meeting at Lit- tle Magog, commending the chivalry of the young Cahadians who had vol- unteered to take part in the great struggle on behalf of Great Britain and France. At St. Narcisse on Wednesday last, addressing a gather- ing at th Champlain agricultural show, Mr) Blondin gave expression to, his pride at the way in which the people of Canada and of Quebec had shown their zeal in the cause of the Allies and said it was the determina- tion to keep on until the war was carried to a successful conclusion. There was no mistaking the meaning of his words. They meant the same thing as the words of Sir Wilfrid Laurier and the action of the Gov- ernment. The attitude thus set out is also that of other French-speaking pub- lic men in this province, Hon. Mr. Casgrain has declared himself plain- ly and strongly, and so has Hon. Mr. Lemieux. At Quebec Sir Lomer Gouin and Hon. Mr. Taschereau shared in meetings for the encour- agement of recruiting, and what they did, other men in public places have repeated. The accusations against Quebec and its French-speaking pub- lic men to which reference has been made are not well founded. AUSTRALIA'S EXAMPLE. She ¥s Showing the World Her Splefi« did Service.
