The War Today
After 86 hours of continuous
bombardment, the Germans !nst
night launched henvy attacks
ngninst Ilnudrcmont Forest, north
cast of Verdun, and in the Lc Pre
tre Forest, 45 miles to the south
cast. These nttacks were broken
up by French artillery, the French
War Office announced this after
noon. In the Wocvrc repion the ar
tillery continues, The Crown
Prince is reported to have received
100.000 fresh troops.
New demands made upon Greece
by the Entente Powers have been
rejected, says an Overstcas News
Agency dispatch. The Greek Gov
ernment, Premier Skouloudis said,
was not disposed to transfer to the
Entente the administration of rail
roads in northern Greece and Mace
donia. Greek and French soldiers
clashed on the island of Mytilcnc
and one French soldier was killed.

day, when -nearly lo.OOO persons visited
the many nttrnctlvc. Interesting and In
structive booths to see and "tako In" nil
tho latest wonders In business cfTlclency.
For tho first tlmo In the Jilstory of pro
fessional typewriter contests In the East
ern States, a man -Has won first place.
Tho contest was held at tho Business
and Efficiency Show In tho First Regi
ment Armory. Broad nnd Callowhllt
Btroets. The show will continue through
out the week.
Tho man who won tho professional con
test Is William I- Oswald, of this city.
Ho Is a graduate of the Taylor Business

130 words a minute In a test which con
tinued for nn hour. He has won a num
ber of other medals, among them tho
world's ntnntcur nnd world's novice)
medals.
Men also won second and third places In
tho professional contests. In the past
women have carried off nil trophies. J. 1
Noyt, of New York, won second prize
with 127 words n mlnuto nnd Gus It,
Trefzger, of Now York, took third place,
with 124 words a mlnuto ns his record.
The girls were more successful In tho

First. Miss Bessie II. Mnaltz, Now
York, 121 words a minute, writing a half

Paterson, N. .1. Miss Colin Grcenburg. of
Brooklyn, won second prize with S3, words,
and Miss Anna Johnson, of I'nterson, N.
J., won third with 72 words. All tho win
ners used Underwood machines, except
Miss Gold, who used a Remington.
J. M. Kimball, who has Judged nil tho
Interrmtionnl typewriter contests held so
far .was tho Judge yesterday afternoon.
There is it startling array of adding,
calculating, folding, payroll computing,
letter duplicating, copying nnd an endless
number of other o'llco machines. Yester
day tho typewriter reigned supremo as far
as general Interest was concerned.
Not only were tho speed contests for
amateurs and professionals held: pretty
and police operators aro eager to show
tho wonders of tho latest typewriting ma
chines. Any one Is welcome to recelvo
a lesson In typewriting, and business men
who have exhibits havo put in practlco
at tho show one of the great secrets of
success In business, namely, geniality and
hospitality ns far as customers or visitors
nro concerned.
Tho booths showing tho Remington nnd
Underwood typewriters were great cen
tres of interest yesterday. Judging irom

Not only nro persons given freo lessons
In typewriting, but typewriting "speed
kings" are always obliging nnd willing to
satisfy publlo curiosity and rattle off
more than 200 words a minute.
Tho Remington people have a "self
starter" on exhibition. It Is said to savo
an averago of 30 kecohda on a letter.
Domonstrators at the show prove with
llghtnlng-llko speed how a good typist can
write an average of 50 business letters a
day, which means a saving of 25 minutes
a day, or two hours and a half a week.
Tho self-starter Is a simple-arrangement
by which any ono can tabulate the exact
position on a letter without all tho pre
liminary "tap-tapping" of the old method.

Probably that Is because companies that
