CORPS AT HOME

Citizens Of North Carolina. in com

upon to engage in the merciful work
of providing material for the manu-
facture of gas-mask carbon. You
can help, and you will.
The indecent and cruel introduce
tion Of poison gas into warfare-by
the German enemy, not by ourselves
or our allies-makes it necessary for
every soldier at the front to carry
gas mask for instant use. Other
wise there is imminent danger of
protracted suffering or horrible
death
The carbon must be of the first
quality The materials needed for
the manufacture of gas-mask carbon
are as follows: Peach and apricot
stones, date seeds, prune and olive
seeds, cherry pit (if native), plum
pits and the shells of Brazil nuts,
hickory nuts, walnuts, and butter
nuts. 1t is not necessary to extract
the kernels from peach stones or
other fruit seeds. These materials
may be new or old (not decayed). In
all cases they must be dry. The va
rious kinds Of material need not be
kept separate, but must be dry. II
they are not dry today, you have only
to put the sun to work on them.

General Ludendorff was reported
to have been the originator of the

On the western battle front the
British, French and Americans have
continued to make further slight
gains against the Germans; in the
Italian theatre both the British and
Italians have scored successes, while
in Asiatic Turkey the British have
captured Aleppo in Syria and are
driving ahead on both banks of the
Tigris in Mesopotamia, with the
Turks unable to check them. The
fall of 'Aleppo and the continued
advance up the Tigris are moves of
such strategic value that it is not
unlikely Turkish opposition shortly
will be entirely overcome both in the
Holy Land and Mesopotamia.
