Arriving ai one of the most critical stages of tho war, when the Teutons
were forcing ? lit* itallun army hack to the I'lavo, the Ajnerlcau Hod Cross
ruKlo'il emergency relief from Paris ii|nl revived tho drooping spirits of tho
who] e country. Ill addition to furnishing rut ions and coin forts and medical
attention to the fighting men, the American lied Cross instituted tU soup
kitchens, .'{(? children's hospitals, 10 children's dispensaries, I I artificial limb
factories; live' homos for refugee children, 10 rest stations for refugees.
This photograph shows a group of Italian refugee children being fed by
the American Red Cross at one of the numerous relief stations.

810 GUN NOT WORTH WHILE
American Ordnanoe Experts Could
Outdo the Hun? In Savagery, but
Are Not Likely To:
The Hun 75 mile gun with which
Paris was harassed la doubtless still
regarded by many us evidence of the
much-advertised German mechanical
Ingenuity.
Ordnance oxperts have long been
aware of the poHMlblllty of such a gun.
Rut they have also been aware of Its
Impracticability owing to a lack of
n.eans of controlling Its lire effective
ly In such dastardly work as shelling
a great city regardless of whoiu or
what was hit.
As an object lesson our ordnance
department has designed, without
actually building, a aupergun which
dwarfs the German machine Into In*
significance. The data, recently made
public through the Scientific Ahum l
can, fairly bewitches the lay mind.
The barrel of the gun Is 225 feet
long and weighs 826 tons. The pres
sure developed Is 45,000 pounds to the
square Inch. The projectile has a
muzzle velocity of 8,500 foot-seconda,
and develops the terrific energy of
800,000 foot-tons. Ita range la 121
miles, approximately the distance be
tween Chicago and Madison, Wis. Its
time of flight Is four mlputes, and It
wars heavenward to a^olght of .40.
miles.
This Is awesome ; but the cold-blood
ed expert points out that, after all,
the gun delivers only a 400-pound
shell, containing 00 pounds of high ex*
plosive, and that such a gun' would
cost $2,500,000. A bombing plane cost
ing $80,000 would drop a 1,800-pound
bomb with greater accuracy of aim.
The German supergun demonstrates
tho savagery of the Hun ? the Berseker
madness that strikes regardless of
whom it strikes. But It also demon
strates an Intellectual weakness? the
love of mechanism for mechanism's
sake. A complicated or difficult piece
of ^machinery captivates his admira
tion because It Is complicated or " diffi
cult, regardless of it? practicability.
With American genius, simplicity Is
the desideratum. The mechanism, for
instance, of the Browning automatics,
whether pistol, rifle or machine gun, Is
astonishingly simple and practically
demountable by the fingers alone. One
looks at it and wonders why It. wasn't
Invented half a century since. And
right there one j?n\:n genius a high
tribute.

You Can Tell a Chalmers
By Its Silence
A piecc of machinery,
often like a great business
executive, expresses effi
ciency in its silence.
The engine of the_Hot
Spot Chalmers does its
work so well, offers so
little complaint to' its
tasks that you are won at
once by its modest absence
of noise.
And gears, universal
joint, driving shaft, differ
ential and rear axle perform
in perfect harmony with
the engine.
The reason f|or tjhis
silence is a lack of vibration.
Vibration is the origin
trouble in a motor car.
Hot Spot and Ram's*
Horn are the underlying
causes for this absence of
vibration in a Chalmers.
They "predigest" the low '
grade, heavier gas of the
day, "pulverize" it, "take
the throb out," and supply
high efficiency. >
You know what to expect
from a talkative man or a
noisy piece of machinery,
but until you have ridden
in a Hot Spot Chalmers
you cannot guess its smooth
ness nor its silence.
