THE RED CROSS NURSES or EUROPE
ARE GIVING TOASTED
CIGARETTES TO THE BOYS

To anyone who doesn't know of the
wonderful advances that have been made
in the preparation of smoking tobaccos
in the last few years it may sound strange
to speak of toasted cigarettes.
Strictly speaking, we should say cigas
rettes made of toasted tobacco; the smok-
ers of this country will recognize it more
readily by its trade name, LUCKY
STRIKE the toasted cigarette.
The American Tobacco Company are
producing millions of these toasted ciga-
rettes and these are being bought in
enormous quantities through the various
tobacco funds conducted by the news
papers of the country and forwarded
through the Red Cross Society to the boys
in France.
This new process of treating tobacco
not only improves the flavor of the tobacco
but it seals in this flavor and makes
the cigarettes keep better.
The Red Cross nurse is always glad to
have cigarette for the wounded soldier,
as, in most instances. that is the first;
thing asked for.

Lack of knowledge
of Gas Defense
Fatal to Soldiers
The necessity for thorough and con-
tinuous training Of troops in gas de-
tense is shown by statement proved
by captured German documents:
The Germans at certain position
on the western front knew the British
were planning to deliver a gas attack
on German division equipped with
masks, but poorly trained in their use.
In spite of the fact that they had sew
eral days to drill before conditions
were suitable for the British attack,
when it was finally made hundreds of
German casualties resulted.
Many kinds of gases are used in
modern warfare. Some merely affect
the eyes temporarily, and are more in
convenient than serious Other gases
are terrible in their effect unless
proper protection is available. They
are employed in clouds, or in shells,
! bombs, and hand grenades.
1t is the work of the Field Training
Section of the Gas Defense Service to
bring home to the American soldier
the importance of his gas mask, to
thoroughly drill him in its use and to
inspire confidence in its efficacy.

Use of Soldiers as Guards
for Industrial Plants
Is Not Recommended

Use of Soldiers as Guards
for Industrial Plants
Is Not Recommended
A memorandum made public by the
War Department concerning the use
of armed guards about industrial
plants contains the following:
"The soldier in training who has
offered his life for the defense of
country should not sacrifice his eff
ffectiveness by performing police duty
in the protection Of property back of
the lines. This is the duty of the cit
iZen at home.
The thcater for operations for arm
led soldiers is the battlefield of Europe.
Each civilian should aid his country
by acting as a guard for the detection
of intrigue, deceit and all the familiar
stealthy operations Of the enemy in
our midst. Each soldier unnecessari-
ly detained as guard in this coun-
try aids and abets the enemy in Eu-
rope.
"Often guard may be needed for
the safety of factory. When it is,
it should be supplied by the owner of
the factory, by the municipality, or by
the State.
"Thesc measures apply not only to
manufacturing plants, but are equally
applicable to shipyards, grain elcvat-
ors and stores of supplies"

After three years Of warfare the
total number of airplanes able to take

tually reaches the front, with an OK

Shows improvements
Over Other Models

The United States rifle, model of
1917, commonly called the modified
Enfield, has now been tested in the
service of the Army sufficient time
to warrant the assertion that it more
than justifics the claims made for it,
according to a statement authorized
by the Secretary of War.
The new rifle takes .3O-caliber
cartridge, which has the advantage
over the British Enfield of being rim
less. 1t has been found that unless
RIM cartridges are fed through the
magazine uniformly with the rim of
the top cartridge ahead Of the rim of
the one Immediately below, jams are
likely to occur.
The model of 1917 has on overall
length Of 46.3 inches; total weight
including oiler and thong case and
bayonet of 10 pounds and ounces.
The breech mechanism is of the bolt
type.
