Wrist Watches In War.
Why all ollicers wear wrist watches
in trench warfare was explained by an
army official. IJe described an advance
from ibe treuclies as mi Illustration,
telling how every move was made on
a prearranged schedule, the artillery
throwing 11 curtain of fire for a certain
mimher nf seconds, while the Ihfantry
advanced twenty yards, then lifting It
to twenty yards further ahead, while
the infantry made another advance,
and so on.
"All this shell fire." he said, "Is be
ing done by artillery far behind. The
artillery officer depends most of all
upon his watch. He sits with a tele
phone glued to his ear and field glasses
in his hands. lie has no time to be
fumbling for his watch. A minute's
error in changing the range would mean
that the shells would be falling into
his own advancing troops. Xor has the
officer leading his men across No
Man's Land any time to be fiimbllny
for his watch." :
