The Twin City star., 1918-09-28

In this corner Of an ultramodern city
has labored to preserve the relics Of
those storied centuries when knights
were bold and ladies passing fair.
Now, thanks to him who has kept
alive an art long considered dead, this
country is able to benefit by the ad-
Vice Of an expert in metals, and no
longer does NJ. Tachaux labor over an
cient pieces, but bends all his efforts,
all his cunning and all his knowledge,
to the making of armor that can be
worn by the modern soldier - armor
heavy enough to be invulnerable, light
enough to carry.
Revive Work of Old Masters.
This question Of weight and there
fore practicability of armor for the
man on foot-the man who makes a
charge-reverts to the time of Louis
XIV Of France, when the use of defen-
sive protection had practically disap-
peared and an attempt was made to
revive the steel helmet. Indeed, the
development Of armor from the time
Of side arms until the use of firearms
is one of exceeding interest at this
time, in that the government is re-
viewing the work of some of the
greatest of the old masters in armor
making, with view to reinstating the
best and most feasible of the old meth
DDS of defensive protection.
The use of armor dates back to the
Int
elaborate and complex until the intro
duction Of gunpOwder. The helmet was
the first body protection to appear and
was followed by the cuirass-the lat
ter being used by the Greeks and Ro-
mans and reappearing at the time Of
Charlemagne in the form of a waist
coat made of overlapping metal scales
and of rather imperfect execution.
What Norman Warrior Wore.
In the eleventh century, according
to the Bayeaux tapestries as we'll as
the seal Of Richard Occur de Lion, we
find the coat of mail assuming first
the shape of redingote and later that
Of bathing suit, completed by he'll
met conical at the nose. This, together
with the use Of leather plates on the
feet and hands, constituted the equip
ment of Norman warrior.
A study of the sculptures of the
Reims cathedral and the evangelia-
rum of st. Louis (National library
points to the development, in the
twelfth century, of perfected coat Of
mail, q metal combination united with
the helmet by passe-montagne OF
steel links; the whole, constituting a
hauberk, protected the warrior with
the haube-a cylindrical helmet made
Of pieces Of forged metal adjusted by
rivets and pierced by two peepholes.
At the beginning Of the fourteenth
century the desire to protect the joints
caused the placing Of metal plates at
shoulder and knee. The haube disap-
peared and was replaced by helmet
of type called Bassinet, with NOV
able visor pierced by holes to permit
sight and ventilation. BY the middle
Of the fourteenth century chain armor
had disappeared to a considerable de-
gree, and plate armor was taking its
place, the plates at the joints being
