A BRITISH OPINION OF THE
MERITS OF NEW ARIIIY.
How the Soldiers of Two Armies
Have Got Acquainted and Be-

American troops are now with the
British armies in France, says a
writer in the Isnulon Morning Post.

been arriving steadily for some time.

very high physical standard. Weak-

there is to be known about this busi-
ness. It is a real pleasure to work
with them and to watch their rapid
progress. One could not ask for bet-
ter material for any army."
I have heard comments of this kind
from all sidea. The men as well as
the officers have resolutely put aside
all suggestions that "they know it
all." They work hard from early
morning until late at night. The men
seem to think only of their training.
The American soldiers are living on
British rations. That is, they are fed
exactly the same as their Allies, and
not on supplies imported direct from
America. They get the same issues of
beef, mutton, potatoes and jam, It is

BRITISH OFFER GRATUITIES.
Men Promoted From Ranks to Re-
ceive Grant of $250.
Important concessions to non-eona
missioned officers and men who re-
ceive temporary commissions are an-
nounced in a new army order, says a
London despatch.
Men promoted from the ranks will
receive a vont of $259 for the pro-
vision of kit and uniform, and those
who sign an undertaking to serve for
at least two years after the termina-
1 tion of hostilities will receive a Ne-
ther outfit allowance of $537.
If an officer ceases to serve within
that period the allowance of $537
shall be deducted from the gratuity or
retired pay clue to him, but if he
should die before the end of the war
the amount will be credited to his
estate.
Energy From the Elements,
lake generation of electricity by
means of the sun's rays, tides And
the wind is quite passible mechanical-
ly, But, as such power is only avail-
able intermittently, extensive methods
of storage are neeessarY. Again,
while many storage methods axe pee-
sible, unfortunately, mono has ate far
proved economically feasible.
In the case of compressed air stor-
age, for instance, the reservoirs ne-
cessary, whether teens in the grot1nd
or steel tanks above, would have tele
of enormous size. The cod of these
and the required electrical and me-
chanical machinery, together with the
cost of energy in the minerals trans•
formation steps necessary, would
make the east of the relatively emelt
amount of power prehibitive.
