BUGLE IN MODERN WARFARE
'Something of an Analogy Between
That instrument and the Trumpets
Sounded at Jerloho.
A glass bar set vibrating Igngthwise
--?by a sound will smash to pieces if the
sound rise to a high enough key-that
is, if the number of vibrations becomes
great entough. And the hardest metals,
such as Iron and steel, will break like
glass under the rhythmic shock of oft
repeated feeble blows. For this rea
son when regiments march across a
nietal bridge they are always ordered
to break stel), in order that the impnet
of their feet may not set up rhythmile
vibrations in the structure.

scene of gayety. Always his place
seemed to be just lit the outer edge of
