! the iOOt or the telephone poles, out
ward and on both sides, conceal the
road. To an observer on foot or in
the air ut thousand feet the hill
| looks deserted-an almost treeleSs
plain with M distinguishing feature
save neglected old path. Yet that
hillside harbors six dugOuts, several
observation and listening posts, men,
cannon, machine guns, and net
work of telephone wires.
Beyond Yonkers there are trench
sections with "No Mans Land" and
its barbed wire entanglementS and dug
outs. The trenches are dug so deep
that the heads of the men do not show
above the surface, and the sod re-
moved TO dig them is replaced. The
openings of the dugOuts of the
trenches are not, as is sometimes sup
posed, far behind the trenches. They
are in the trenches with the entrance
on the enemy side. Bombs may fall
in the mouth Of the dugout, but sell
dom inside.
The obvious is sometimes as good
as the invisible" Lieutenant Towle
said recently. For instance. the IA
nous dummy fleet the British used.
Another camouflage to which the Ger
mans were dupes was red cannon,
Scantily camouflaged, placed by the
British at the summit of Il hill. The
cannon was visible to every German
scout flying over 1t. but it seemed so
obviously a fake that not single
enemy bomb was dropped on It, Yet
1t held its position for Il long time,
and at night poured its stream Of fire
into the enemy.
'The same idea is carried out by
the American Camoufleurs, who model
dummy men and guns for decoys. The
enemy air scout sees Il partly camOu-
tagged cannon or machine gun with its
men bending over 1t at work and the
smoke pouring from its nozzle inter-
mittently. He cannot see, completely
hidden from view, real cannon whose
men are firing n deadly volley from
under cover, and whose ammunition
comes to them through tunnels.
"Such experiments are being made
by the military camOufeurs at Yonk-
ers. There are other tricks to be
learned for they also do their own
painting of army equipment before u.s.
ing 1t. Although an ambulance or
army truck may not be entirely invisi- |
BILE on account of the various back |
grounds it must pass, 1t can be mot
tied into a very poor target. In mo- |
ton it will appear as a blur caused by |
heat rays, for it is mottled in the col |
Drs whose values constitute cOlors |
which the suns rays would make"
Natural camoufIage Discarded.
At first natural camouflage was
used almost entirely. A clump Of
trees and brush hid whole machine
gun company, a group of rocks harbor-
ed listening post. and n deserted mill

Pottery the Oldest Art.

Pottery is the oldest, the longest and
most widely diffused of all human arts.
Its history, if recorded, would be as
old as the history of man; it's record
ed history begins with the building of
the tower Of Babel. The oldest pot
terry known is Egyptian, but every peo-
pie, civilized or barbarian, has prac-
ticed the art in one or another form.
All study in every department Of art
begins at period not long after the
Mosaic deluge, but pottery is the
earliest Of all forms of art.

Women Beinn Trained.

Women Being Trained.
American women camoutieurS are
being trained according to the same
method MS the men. under the Won.
ems League for National Service and
under Lieutenant Towle. Discussing
their work, he SAID:
There isn't any reason why the
women shouldn't do us we'll as the
men as camoufleurS-that is, in max
ing the materials behind the lines. 1t
isn't heavy work, but it demands in
genious workers, skilled in details"
TryOn Hall, the old c. X. G. Billings
place on Washington Heights, bought
by John d. Rockefeller, Jr., to be
/ given, ultimately, to the city for 4
| park, is the spot chosen for the prac-
| tical experimental work by the wom-
en-. Hither they go with Lieutenant
Towle to try out their camoufiage suits
/ and be photographed, wearing them, In
| different positions, to see that they
| blend with different colOrs of the land
| scape and would be invisible to the
enemy not only on the firing line but
on the plates Of. the enemy phOtog-
rapher.
This is the most serious work that
has been undertaken under the au-
spices of the National League for
WOman's Service. The members OF
the camoufiage corps. Of whom there
are about 40, confidently expect to
cross the water to assist In the camOu-
flage work at which English and
French women are already busy
They will not be accepted by the
government as regular workers and
enlisted for the service until they have
completed their training and shown
that they have made good, but the fact
that Lieutenant Towle is on leave in
order to instruct them is sufficient
proof that their work will be consid-
cred.
No Age Limit for Women.
There is no age limit, up or down,
for women joining the corps, but each
member must have had some practical
technical training before she joins.
This keeps from the corps very young
girls. The members are young women
who are self-suppOrting. They are
artists, architects, metal workers,
wood carverS, photographers, etc 1t is
an exceptionally versatile and respOn-
sible group. They take a three
months course under Lieutenant
TOwle.
Each member of the class makes
and develops her own camouflage suit,
according to her own ideas, with the
foundation of instruction that she has
received. Suits as they have been con-
structed by the girls so far are in one
piece, like a divers suit, with hood
covering the head. A human face
shows white in the distance and the
corps is experimenting with wells as
face coverings.
Earth brown Is the usual foundation
color, and upon this go yellows,
green's, grayS, and splashes of black.
