correspondence Of the Associated Press.

CORR spondencc Of The Associated Press.
BEHIND THE BRITISH LINES IN
FRANCE, July 2s.-Every British and
American airman nowadays under
goes a special course of training in
counter camoufiage." He is told all
the tricks Of the German camouflage
artist to deceive the entente airmen.
His eye is carefully trained to pene-
trate all devices of the enemy.
It is diamond cut diamond all the
time in the contest between the Ger
man camouhage expert and the allied
observers. Troops may be moved on
roads canopied by camoufaged can
vas. There is camoufage even in the
business of moving troops in the
open. The German practices simple
little deception by varying the spac-
ing between one rank and the next,
er's estimate of the numbers on the
move Is hopelessly inaccurate.
The airplane observer of today has
to combine the wits of a first-rate
detective with the eyes of an eagle.
He has first to see. then to deduce.
and has to be certain that he Is not
making deductions from. falsified evil
oenis; 4 Heavy howitser is sometimes con-
verted into a woodland growth and q
grove of brushwood erected about it.
But suppose gun is seen nakedly
plain. with well-worn tracks leading
to 1t and as an airplane appears
above. flashes coming from the gun!
The obvious deduction is that here
is a 'dummy-gun, with dummy flashes,
airplane and the fire of the British
batteries. But 1t may be the real gun
after, al, exposed for purposes Of
deception.
Troops hiding in woods are we'll
concealed from an airpiane observer
so long as they are .motionless. Let
one man move and detection of the
whole party may follow. -
