For the 9 millimeter, we took for each rifle 450 solids, 500 splits and 500 soft-nosed bullets, and practically the same for the .256 Mannlichers. We found that we had far more ammunition than we required, especially the solids for the smaller rifles, but it is better to have too much than to have the fear of running short.

Of the 155 millimeter howitzers none of American manufacture reached the front. French deliveries amounted to 747. The lack of preparation in the matter of machine guns has received wide publicity. In this, as in artillery, the deficiency was made good by the Allies up to the final weeks of the war.

The eggs are little spindles, white and gleaming like ivory, about two-thirds of a millimeter in length. They have not the long, curved peduncle of the Leucospis' eggs; they are not suspended from the ceiling of the cocoon like these, but are laid without order around the fostering larva.

Possibly they would and if the moon were made of different stuff than it is and had a different color, it might be green cheese, too! What say we go over and look at the stars?" "As you were, Rufus!" he commanded sternly. "Don't move a millimeter you're a drive fit, right where you are. I'll get you any stars you want, and bring them right in here to you. What constellation would you like?

Costigan's door flew open and the Triplanetary captain leaped into the room. "Now for our armor!" he cried. "Not yet!" snapped Costigan. He was standing rigid, goggled eyes staring immovably at a spot upon the ceiling. "I can't move a millimeter until you've closed Clio's ether-wall switch. If I take this ray off it for a second we're sunk.

Before Leda could say anything, Snookums rolled over to Mike the Angel and said: "Check the lead between the 391-JF and the big DK-37. I think you'll find that the piping is in phase with the two-cycle note, and it's become warped and stretched. It's about half a millimeter off plus or minus a tenth.

See how well the rubies and yttria phosphorescence shows under molecular bombardment, at an internal pressure of 0.00068 millimeter, or 0.9 M. A shadow of an object inside a bulb can also be projected on to the opposite wall of the bulb by means of an outside pole. Here the internal pressure is 0.00068 millimeter, or 0.9 M.

Phil Evans was within nine fifteen-hundredths. And that is why Phil Evans was only secretary of the Weldon Institute, whereas Uncle Prudent was president. A difference of three fifteen-hundredths of a millimeter! And on account of it Phil Evans vowed against Uncle Prudent one of those hatreds which are none the less fierce for being latent.

As the rarefaction approaches about 0.5 millimeter the surface of the negative pole, A, becomes faintly phosphorescent. On continuing the exhaustion this luminosity rapidly diminishes, not only in intensity but in extent, contracting more and more from the edge of the disk, until ultimately it is visible only as a bright spot in the center.

For instance one gramme iron, which has passed through a metal sieve with holes half a millimeter in diameter, is placed in a beaker 125 mm. in height and 60 mm. in diameter, and has added to it twenty cubic centimeters of hydrochloric acid of 1.12 specific gravity, which, with a well-fitting glass cover, is boiled for half an hour, in order that the combined carbon may be driven off in the shape of gas.
