The Corbetts closed their Bayside
house” situated in the heart of a rea
trlcted residential section, the latter
part ot’ October. Mr. Corbett we-nt on
the road with a theatrical company and
Mrs. Corbettt took up winter quarters-
in the McAlpin.
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. We believe that the distribution of this unrivalled
song collection will bring more happiness into the homes of
our Readers; will do more to make them attractive to young
and old; do more to inculcate a love for music; to soften,
elevate and refine the home life; to cultivate the noble and
