Sergeant Hanley Tells of the
Fighting Qualities of Men of
Different Nationalities in
the War.
Sergeant Hanley, one of tlie thir
teen survivors of the Princess Pat
Canadian regiment, who will lecture
on the war at the Auditorium Octo
ber 30, in an interview, nude the fol
lowing statements regarding the fight
ing qualities of the various national
ities on the western front:
' There ; re various classes of fight
ers, each seen to fight according to
the nature of tiie ground or training
they have received in their native
land. The Canadians and Americans
are very similar in their methods, the
old Indian tighter instinct showing
up very strongly in them.
"The English and French and their
colonists arc in classes by themselves
and each is placed where they are
most advantageous.
"In the beginning of .he war, the
Canadian troops lost lots of men on
account of their over-anxiety to fight.
They warned to go over the top and
the idea of sitting quietly in the
trenches with the enemy shelling
them from seven miles distant, with
nothing to do but to take it, did not
appeal to them, with the result they
were careless and exposed them
selves recklessly and were the victims
of thousands of German snipers.
Patience Is a Factor.
'Tatience is as big a factor in this
war as enthusiasm and it is one thing
the American troops will have to
learn, or their losses will be heavy
until they learn it. Discipline is an
absolute necessity; orders will have
to be obeyed or disaster will result.
"The cockney, the London Kng
lander, makes a wonderful soldier
under shellfire. He will calmly stand
cooking his mulligan with the shells
dropping all around him and with as
little concern for thein as if be was

BEING ERECTED AT NINTH AND DOUGLAS .STREETS OMAHA
in bis home in London. He can sleep
as peacefully as a child in the dug
outs with a hell- bedlam of shells
dropping all around him, and is very
calm and very little excited in an
assault, which makes each man ca
pable of using' good judgment in in
dividual fighting.
"The Frenchman makes a wonder
ful soldier and stands sell fire more
calmly than was expected of him. In
an assault he shows firm determina
tion to avenge himself for the de
vastation of France.
The French colonists, the Moroc
can troops, are adversaries which the
Germans do not wish to contend with
in hand-to-hand fight. They disregard
their guns and resort to their knives,
which are more effective in band-to-hand
encounters. They invariably win
their objective, but have to be well
supported, owing to their habit of
throwing -way their guns, as they arc
unable to hold a trench after they take
it without rifles.
"Over enthusiasm will he the great
est factor the American officers will
have to guard against in their troops,
to prevent useless loss of men, be
cause the Yankees will go into the
fight with their do-or-dic spirit, which
has made them the greatest factor iiti
the world. I heir ability of readily
adapting themselves to conditions will
overcome this after they realize what
it means. I have seen their fighting
ability displayed by members of my
regiment who are Americans, and
there is no question but what when
they get started, nothing will ever
stop them."
Farewell Reception to Morris.
A farewell reception was given El
mer Morris by his brother, Dr. Craig
uMorris, at Dreamland hall, last night.
The gathering was in honor of the de
parture of the honor guest for war
service.

The Mitchell has extra
strength. It is built to the stand
ard of 100 per cent over-strength,
which is twice the
usual margin of
safety.
In three years all
our strength stand- .
ards have been dou
bled, to make this a
lifetime car.
The Mitchell has 31
features which nearly
all cars omit. Things
like a nower tire pump,
reversible headlights,
shock - absorbing
springs, etc.
It offers at least 20
per cent extra value,
compared with . other
cars in this class. All
this because of factory
efficiency, due to John
W. Bate. It saves us millions of
dollars yearly. And these mil
lions go into better cars. See
what such things mean to you in
a car you buy to keep.
