Amsterdam, Aug. 20.-- Late last night German troops with machine guns In armored motor cars rusheo tite camp at Beverloo, near Hectel, and the small garrison retreated. A lieutenant, commanding twelve Bel gan scouts, says that near Orsmeal his party saw about five hundred Germans approach without scouts The Belgians took cover and when the Germans were only fifty yards away they opened fire. The Ger- mans were thrown into confusion as the deadly fire, of which every shot took effect, poured into them. More than half the German force was kill ed, wounded or made prisoners. The Germans, not believing such a tiny force could have doné sc muaeh mischief, declared that the far mers helped. The same officer says the Germar rifle fire was bad and too high, but that the machine guns were deadly Their cavalry were brave but rest- legs, having done no scouting, but they are learning by bitter experien ce that the smallest ditch or barb- wire entanglement means death for hundreds in their heroic impromptu dashes. twentieth century, with its uncom fortable training of the juvenile mind along utilitarian channels, has ironed out the sentiment and put in place thereof the typewriter ribbon. In the old days a letter from a lady to the idol of her dreams was pen- ned in a blotty, indegipherable mix- ture of spider legs and semi-circular perambulations that might mean any- thing the heart -desired, .the only really legible sentences being certain X marks, judiciously appended or in- serted, and which needed no inter- pretation. . Nowadays such communications as come are in a bold firm business college hand, clad in statements woe- ully definite and uncompromising, and not at all the sort of things that sne can put under the pillow. Man, i00, being seized with a desire to 'communicate his ardor, leaps to his ypewritér, and, the machine imbu- ng him with its /usual caution, he 'omes circumspect and halting, for :xperience fells him he knows not shay the future may hold in store, ind ambiguity is the heart and soul 1 good defence.

Later, one was con- fronted with the embarrassment of little bundles which a fond senti- ment had tied up with stringy rib- hon, and, realizing that later events have constituted them a grave dan- ger of heart and home, one's life must be torn out and de- posited gmong the ashes. Nowadays it is hard to tell the difference be- tween the love letter and a gas bill from the outside, and the inside is frequently as disappointing, only not (uite so pressing.
