lungs.
A strong wind had arisen and dis
persed the gas.
They told me that I had been "out'
for three hours; they thought l was
dead.
The attack had been repulsed after
a hard fight. Twice the Germans had
gained a foothold in our trench, but
had been driven out by counter-at-
tacks. The trench was filed with their
dead and ours. Through a periscope
l counted eighteen dead Germans In

their horrible-looklng r%espirators.

A bullet had gone through 1t on the
left side, just grazing my ear. The

killed and two wounded.
That night we buried all Of the dead,
excepting those In No Mans Land. In
death there is not much distinction

After the wind had dispersed the
gas the r. A. NJ. G. got busy with their
chemical sprayers, spraying out the
dugouts and low parts Of the trenches
to dissipate any fumes of the German
gas which may have been lurking in

Two days after the gas attack 1 was

and how sorry I felt that they had to
stay in the front line and argue out the
wal with Fritz. They We're enviOus
but still good-natured, and as l left the
trench to go to the rear they shouted
after me:

thought, in for a cushy job back at the

The next morning the four reported
to division headquarters for instruc-
lions. Two of the men were tent TO
large towns in the rear of the lines
with an easy job. When it came our
turn the officer told us we were good
men and had passed a very creditable
examination.
My tin hat began to get too small
for me, and 1 noted that the other man,
Atwell by name, was sticking his chest

CamOuilage is an American Institu-
ton.

The art of "camouflage" as now in
use in Europe is an American insti-
tuition, and originated by the Indians.
A squaw, reported to be over 100 years
Of age, and to have lived in a section
where every white nan was consid-
cred an enemy, through an interpre-
ter, explained how the Indian chill
dren were taught to place flowers in
their hair as well as twigs. leaves and
other bits Of foliage, and we're able t
move along the ground in such a steal
thy manner that they were not dis
cernable to the rest of the tribe.
Before a young buck could become
qualified as a warrior he had to make
his approach TO the Indian camp in
the midst of the assembled warriors
without being detected. The real or
igin of paint on their faces. as we'll as
on their wigwams and horses, was for
the purpose of making them blend
with the rocks. trees and dirt, so that
they could approach their prey or re-
main hidden without detection.
