But we've got it now and make good use of it when we get over." A marine commander was speaking of the Lewis machine gun. Before the outbreak of the great war the gun was offered to the war department by its Inventor, a retired army officer. It was rejected. In 1914 the gun was taken up by the English army. Hundreds of thousands of them were turned out.

Today expert observers say the Lewis gun is winning the war. Tn spite of its success on the western ft out the gun was rejected again and again by tho war department on new tests, until the controversy over it assumed the proportion of a scandal. Competent officers of the ordnance department of the army gave weighty opinions explaining exactly why the gun was not acceptable. Secretary Baker subscribed to those opinions and thought the controversy was ended. Plenty of Guns.

Then suddenly the war cloud appeared. Secretary of the navy Daniels placed an order for a very large number of Lewis guns in spite of the war department's condemnation. Today the marine corps is fully equipped with Lewis guns. The army is, in the words of its officers, literally "crying fof them." And tHey are being turned out just as fast as the Savage Arms company can make them. "Statistics show that 92 percent of the casualties in this war are caused by machine the commander of a marine corps machine gun company said today.

"On these figures it is safe to say that the side with out on top. that will win the war. At the beginning the allies were far behind. Germany was well equipped and the casualties resulting from the paredness of England and France during tHe early months of the war were frightful. "Those countries have been making machine guns just as fast as they could be made ever since and United States is taking their good example.

Than the Lewis gun no better weapon has been found. Mv company is entirely equipped with them and we expect to do some considerable damage when we set about it over Simple Gun. The Lewis gun looks most unwieldy. It is like a rifle with a stove pipe fitted over the barrel. The regular army rifle weighs nine pounds.

The Lewis gun weighs 27 pounds. The simplicity of the gun is amazing. There is one corporal in a machine gun squad in training here who can take his gun all apart and put it together blindfolded in four minutes. The average for the entire company is ten minutes. No elaborate toofs are required to repair the trun.

The only tool needed is a cartridge. The I gun seldom jams, and when it does it is easily fixed. "it doesn't take a watchmaker to repair it, neither does it take a water barrel to cool said a machine gun officer. "The gun works for the most part automatically. It is air cooled and the mechanism is worked by the gas generated by the exploding cartridge.

Give all other machine guns to the Germans and leave the Lewis gun for us. I'm willing to match my company with Lewis guns against any other with, twice the number of any other type and guarantee we'll V.

SorpR!) Countrv hop. Miss Maddoclcs' clasa in current By GERTRUDE ERESFORIJ. A PRETTY girl, a rose gown and 1 firelight! There you have the material for romance. The bodice of this lovely frock is swathed in folds of rose net. Over this falls a cloth of silver bolero, carrying in its weave tints of rose.

Little silver balls dangle from this jacket. Two rows of coral beads form the shoulder straps and hang in loops under the arms. A wisp of tulle crosses the arm and calls itself a sleeve. The skirt Is gathered to the waist line with just enough more. Four long ends of cloth of silver fall over the skirt Silver balls weight these ends Worn with rose stockings nnd silver slippers.

Voila! Such a gown is entrancing, especially at Thanksgiving and Christmas, when candle light and log fites seem to call for this lovely color. i Out of Town Visitors. S. W. T.
