The Corbetts closed their Bayside

Mrs. Oscar ‘Enge/ls. passing the Cor-

bett house on Saturday. noticed an open window and notliled the police. Detectives found unmistakable evid- ence that burglars had pitched camp there and had lived quietly without being disturbed. The kitchen fioorwas strewn with eggshells and remnants of fruit and the intruders had neglec- ted to make up the Corbett bed. Two trunks which had contained silverware and possibly souvenirs of Corbett.'s prize ring career. we-re foundforced open and empty.

The police are satisfied' that the

burglary was conducted on the instal- iuent plan and that several tri-ps were made in lugging oft' the booty.

l}[ll0RS UF SLEEVE

ST. JOHN, Jan. 17.- “To fool the

Get-mans we adopted these colored blocks which we wear on our sleeves." said anoiiicer who was relating how it came to pass that msn who have been overseas now wear different colored squares on their sleeves which ienote their battalion and brigade.

“lt was during the third battle oi

Ypres that the scheme was adopted. We had noticed in previous engage- ments,” said tbe oillcer. “that the Ger- man snipers and machine gunners did their 'best to kill off all the oillcers "luring the early stages of an attack. so as to leave the attacking units ‘eaderless. ,They invariably picked out the men ,ln oi‘iicer‘s uniforms and killed them first. That`was one of the causes for the very high casualty rat- io among the otlicers.

"Before the third battle of Ypres,

according to orders. we all removed our badges and any particular mark .leslgnating rank and in their stead `hese squares of cloth were sewed on to determine the battalion and brig-

ide to which an otilcer~or man belong- ed.

We were also ordered not to ad-

vance ahead of our men but to take up a position on the flank about_ three 3r four paces from the end. As t`c~.‘ myself I was dressed in a '1'ommy's uniforin as were many of the other oii‘icers._ Thus, when we advanced the Germans did not know who were the officers and hence could not direct particular attention to the ‘leaders of the different attacking parties. In this way we completely fooled Frltzls and followed it up by giving him a good drubbing. That is the reason we wear these colored quares on our sleeve. 7l‘he third battl; of Ypres saw _the debut of the system."

"Heart Songs” is not a mere collection of words and music thrown togeather to make a song book, 20,000 people voted the songs in “Heart Songs" the songs of the American people Four years were required to reach a verdict and the result is “Heart Songs,” the song book of the American people. _ Many of these songs cannot be found' in any other collection They came' in yellow, time-worn,- tear~stained sheets- that had been sacredly treasured from childhood - some were written out from memory-others were given by titles only- or remembered verses _involving a long search to obtain the whole. Of the thousands received it is safe to say that the several hundred finally selected-as having the largest .number of votcs and the highest endorsement-represent today the taste of the Americian people in_ its choice of music.
