...Other arms are manufactured and also automobiles, but the machine gun is the product that really enabled Hotchkiss & Cie. to earn as much as 23,500,000 francs in the late 1920's. Last year's report has not yet been published, but it is expected to reveal complete recovery from the depression low of 12,000,000 francs. In terms of U.

First discord came when photographers asked the girls to pose so that they would reveal their legs at full length. "But we are not show people," objected one of the few who spoke English.

When his onetime mistress has been murdered, circumstantial evidence, much like that on which he based his case against...
...Ireland was not inhabited in Pleistocene times, as Britain and Europe were. Settlers arrived from Britain about 7000 B. C., bringing Stone Age implements some 10,000 of which the Harvardmen found. In geological strata of this period pollen grains of elm, alder, beech and oak and fossil shellfish reveal a warm climate. The Bronze Age began about 1800 B. C., the Iron Age not until 100 A. D. From then until the Anglo-Norman conquests (12th Century) the Irish lived in wicker huts, wooden houses or crannogs-lake dwellings. Still being explored is a royal crannog where Irish kings...
