Brit- ish, Indian, French, Italian Contin- genie participated in the. fighting, and, ` in addition, Arab forces from east of the Jordan rendered effective assistance, The British navy also had a share in the operations. General Allenby's plan was ambi- tious. He sought to break the Turk, Isla lines, send. his cavalry through and encompass what he describes ;as " a rectangle five miles in Iengtb emit' twelve in depth, in which the Turkish troops were crowded?' By this stroke heplanned to cut the enemy's com- munication and complete his discom- fiture by joining hands with the Arabs:. A force vastly superior to the Turkish armies was gathered against the right wind, of the enemy's army, near the Mediterranean coast.

When the housewife,boils ham or cabbage, everybody in the house knows it. If the cooking is done in the diminutive kitchenette of a mod .ern apartment, a small edition of a German gas attack is very apt to be the result. The architect who designed the model kitchen recently installed in Paris, solved -the cooking -odor prob- U-boats turned over to the United lens by borrowing an idea utilized for States are said to be now on their many years in ail well-equipped chemical laboratories. Many chem- ical operations are accompanied by disagreeable and, often highly injure ions fumes. Such operations are car ried on in socalled draught -closets. The draught -closet of the model kitchen is very similar in. construc- tion to the chemical draught -closet. It has . glass doors through which the progress of -the cooking opera- tions on the gas stove can be watched. A 'slit in the lower part of -the glass --doors admits air, and the heat, steam, smoke and cooking odors escape, through a flue placed in the upper part of the cabinet. If the'draught-closet in kitchen or kitchenette is properly constructed and provided with' a good. flue, it will prevent even the odor of corned beef. way ecross the Atlantic. The newspaper, does not specify the manner in which the rest of the 127 surrendered submarines are to be alloted. .
