to Deceive Enemy

Behind American Lines in France,
Sept. ia make-ibelieve forest
stands along the edge of the foad at
the entrance to the American camou-
flage station here. It looks as natural
as the real woods along the lighting
front, with the shiny silver park OF
the beeches, the rough, Jagged trunks
of the old apple trees and the sprout-
ing tops Of the dwarf willows.
Yet, every tree in the camouf1aee
forest has a steel core within which
an observer peers forth to watch the
movements of an enemy or machine
gun is located to sweep forth from it's
hidden recess. They are only one Of
the many strange devices to deceive
and mystify the enemy which this
American camouflage station Is send
ing forth to the fighting army.
Camouflage is one Of the distinctly
new products OF the war. even In the
name, which was used for the first
time by General de Castlenau, chief
OF staff of General Joffre. The word
is not good French but comes from
the argot, orr French slang. the verb
"camouflAr' being used by French
police to indicate any disguise used to
capture criminals. For example, a de-
.tcctive camouflages himself by dress
ing as coachman.
Early in the war the famousiportrait
painter, Giron de Sivela, conceived the
idea Of disguicing batteries and build
ings by painting them in fantastic
patterns blending with the landscape.
He laid the plan before General do
Castlenau, who, struck vita the orac-
teal value Of the plan, exclaimed
"camouflage." And from that time
the words grew and with it grew into

NEW TEACHERS FUR
 MESA HIGH SCHOOL
 HAVE FINE RECORD

MESA, July 25.-Mesa Union High school has secured two teachers to fill vacancies occurring at the close of the last term.
 Miss Mary McNabb. who taught last year at Park city, Utah, will teach shorthand and typewritingl This posi- tion had been filled. but the teacher selected, decided later not to come.
 Miss Gertrude Jones of St. Louis will be in charge of the department of mu- sic and art. The art department is a new one in Mesa high.
 Superintendent Matthews states that the board is exercising extreme care in the selection of the agricultural and manual arts teachers for the coming term It is imperative that thorough man be secured in order that the full benefit of the Smith, Hughes act, may be obtained. A man who will be rec ognized by the farming community as proficient leader of the young men who are to receive instruction in agri- culture, is sought, and since so many of the capable instructors have gone into farming for themselves or have been called to more remunerative posi- tions, it is not easy to secure a man of the attainments required by the Mesa school.
 A like condition exists as to the teacher for the manual arts depart ment. Many specially equipped school men have gone into the shipbuildins industry and the government is mak- ing heavy demands upon the graduates of institutions turning out men fin ished in both the practical handiworB and the science of teaching manual art However difficult the task may | be, the trustees of Mesa high have de- termined on making every effort to
