AMERICAN TRAINING CAMP IN
FRANCE, August THE issuance of
French gas masks to the American SOL
diers has brought them a little nearer
to the realization of their proximity
to real warfare. The men are looking
forward to the gas experiments with
the greatest possible interest as giving
touch of adventure to their training.
When the so-called "gas house Is COM
pleted the men will be put through a
mixture of deadly vapor several times
stronger than will ever be encountered
upon the field of battle.
Some German prisoners have claimed
that in their training they have en-
dured periods of from five to ten min
utes in gas mixture nifty times as
strong as could possibly be maintained
in an open air attack. The men are
put through these intense mixtures to
demonstrate to them that with proper
care and use of their equipment they
cannot be hurt by any gas likely to be
encountered in the front line trenches.
1t is a most important branch of the
modern training of soldier that he
should be convinced that there are
many methods of effectually dealing
with the deadliest terrors of latter day
warfare; that careless, slovenly and un-
needing soldiers are the ones first to
succumb. 1t is even demonstrated to
the soldiers that the terrifying liquid
Are can be avoided except In most ex-
traordinary circumstances such as be-
ing caught in a tunnel or IN dugout
with the enemy in such a position that
he can pour flames through the en-
frances.
In training the Americans regarding
gas the greatest weight is to be lasd
on demonstrating to each man the
value of his protective appliance. and
seeing that he is fully instructed in its
proper use. He will be made to realize.
