EUROPEAN WAR
MAY BRING CHANGE
IN UNIT FORMS
(By Associated Press.)

LONDON, Feb. 22.-The experience
of this war may lead to the trial Of
soldiers uniforms striped like the
zebra or banded by the colors of the
rainbow, in the opinion of some mill
tary observers who have serious doubt
as to the effectiveness of khaki, blue
gray, or any of the other colors now
in use. In India and South Africa,
where khaki got its reputation as a
uniform cloth, it fitted we'll into the
backgrounds of the landscapes, but in
the different atmosphere and land
scapes of Europe both the khaki and
the blue-gray show up conspicuously
in mass.
Nature, the color experts now say,
did not stripe the zebra by way of or
nament, but as protective measure
1t is the unbroken mass of color, no
matter of what shade, that catches
the eye in the distance. Colonel
Maude, a well known expert, recounts
an instance in India when his party,
approaching a parade ground from a
distance, were unable to see but one
of three battalions until comparatively
close up. The troops all wore scarlet
jackets. Bat two battalions were
made invisible by white pipeclay belts
and cross straps, which broke the
mass of color, while the conspicuous
body had dark straps which blended
in with the red. Tigers, lepards, birds,
lizards, snakes and most living crea-
lures use a notified coloring.
While scarlet is most conspicuous
at short range it is the first of the
primary colors to fade from view at
a distance. AS a landscape has all
colors in it, striped, large checks or
variegated blotches of different colors
are the easiest to melt into the back
ground. This fact was recognized IN
the old times, when forts on the coast
were painted in black and white

ing the correspondent to dine with
him. He talks English fiuently, with
hardly a suspicion of foreign ac-
cent, and he spoke freely of the cam
paign and the situation, proud of what
the Bavarians had accomplished and
what the future might bring.
Another of the guests at headquar-
tiers was Prof. Otto G. T. Kiliani, OF
New York, who, for several years, was
professor of clinical surgery at Col
umbia University and who has charge
of the German Field hospital at Cam
brai.
DR.. Kiliani recounted, to the great
amusement of the Crown Prince, the
adventure of Bavarian soldier. Dur
ing the night the trench occupied by
this soldier was evacuated for some
reason, but he, fast asleep In one OF
the bombproof dugouts, was over
looked. He awoke in the morning 70
find himself alone and six Englishmen
approaching the trench. DR.. Kiliani,
himself a born Munich man. related
the soldiers account in the broadcast
Bavarion dialect.
81 made up my mind right off that
the only thing possible was strong
ter-offensive," said the soldier.
He carried out this "counter-offen5-
ive," to such good purpose that he
killed two of the English patrol, cap
tured two and forced the other pair to
withdraw.

GERMANS ARE
CAREFUL Of THE
FRENCH PROPERTY
CBy Associated Press.)

BERLIN, Feb. 22.-An Associated
Press correspondent who has visited
racentlv a dozen or more French vii
las and chauteaux which now serve as
staff Headquarters for various corps
divisions of the German forces found
that reports of theft and destruction
of property in these French homes
were not true. In all of these places,
without an exception, the carved
woodwork, Oriental rugs, marbles and
pictures testifying to the wealth and
taste of the recent owners were not
only still in place, but were being car
ed for as scrupulously as if the own
ers were present. No burning cigars
or cigarettes, carelessly laid, had
scorched the polished tables or burn
ed the coverings and no stain of mud
DIV boots disfigured the rugs. So thor
ough is the attention to these details
in some of the headquarters, that the
most particular housewife could have
run a suspicious finger over any ar
ticle in the place without finding a
speck of dust.
The most recent visit which the
correspondent paid to one of these viii
las was to that occupied by Crown
Prince Rupprecht, COMMANDMENT
chief of the Bavarian army. Notwith-
standing that the Bavarian court is
one of the most ceremonious in Eu-
rope. the Crown Prince was found to
be a most democratic individual, invit-

ATLANTA, Ga, Feb. 22.-Yaarab
Temple of Shriners has been given the
highest honor in the order, Imperial
Potentate Smith having selected its
band and patrol to be his personal es-
cort at the Seattle convention this
spring. The Atlanta Shriners will
march in the place of honor in all
the pageants.
Sunday afternoon at the Lyric thea
ter the Shriners gave a high-class con-
cert, with some of Atlanta's most
prominent amateur and professional
musicians, to swell the fund for send
ing the band and patrol to Seattle, a
large audience being present. Poten-
tate Forrest Adair, who brought the
big Shrine convention to Atlanta last
year, is anxious that Yaarab Temple
make the finest showing of all organi-
cations at the western convention.
