Fruit Pits Make a 1 Porous Charcoal Which as Filter in War Gas Mask "How does the government make gn J masks out of peach stone*T” Is a question that every school pupil has ask'd of puxaled parents since the schorls have begun the collection of peach and plum stone* to fight German gas. The answer Is that the stones are 1 not made into masks, but arc transformed Into charcoal that ia used in ; the masks. The American Chemical society In a bulletin explains the mailer In this

way:

“Peach stones are used as the raw material for making the best grade of absorbent charcoal ever produced; and the charcoal Is used In the respirator for absorbing the deadly gasea In the Inspired air. “How does charcoal sett In the first , place. It Is exceedingly porout. It Is , produced, by roasting wood, dried , blood, or other organic materiel, and this roasting decompose* the material Into two parts, one of them gaseo’ps. which passes off from the retorts, and one of them solid, which remains behind as charcoal. Every minute cell of the wood and every part of a cell gives up some of the gas during the operation and thus leaves minute pores all through the material. Thus the wood charcoal that we know I* vary bulky for Its weight and contains innumerable fine pores. Now this highly porous charcoal has a remarkable property of absorbing certain kinds of substances. “In the gas mask contaminated air passes through a layer of highly active carbon before It reaches the mouth, and the poisonous material 1* absorbed. It Is apparent that the more active the charcoal Ia the more the absorbing power can be pecked Into the small box on the front of the mask. Now. all charcoal from all source* l* not equally active. Hence, before charcoal was used successfully In masks t very active form had to be produced. And It was found that the hard, dense, compact substance of nui shells and fruit stones formed the most condensed and actively absorbing charcos!. The pores of the charred materia] are Infinitely fine and numerous and hence a given volume of the cat* bon will do far rnore work than lit* rsme volume of other kinds of char-

The lant great G.lsmin drive was on. pounding relentlessly forward toward Paris. But in contrast to this picture was another, that of great trucks crammed with fell-chested, steel-muscled men. hastening to the front.

And tlien. when the t.me of proliatlon is over and the enlistment pleted. the marine learn* this: "I am a soldier, though not an army soldier. I go to sea. yet am not a sailor. I am older than the soldier of the army or the sailor of the navy. I fight my country's bat tie* everywhere and anywhere—in the trenches In France, on ships at nea. or Ire airplanes above. IF* all the same. “I raised the first American flag on foreign soli, more than a century ago. 1 tarried Old Glory intd action In Tripoli. Egypt. West Africa, the FIJI Islands. Sumatra. Hawaii.
