"The Campbells Are Coming."
For the first time in history, Scottish bagpipe factories are working night and day, according to word from Glasgow.
It is not only the Scottish regiments that march to the battlefields behind the pipes. English, Irish, and even the Indian regiments have caught the "pipe craze," until now it is estimated that ten thousand pipes are playing "Johnny Cope" every morning in Britain, at sea, or in France,[Pg 57] and the demand for the instrument exceeds the supply. The instruments cost from thirty-five dollars to forty-five dollars.
