Colborne, Ontario WAR PAINT FOR SHELLS | Military shells of all types, from : the baby 20 mm. anti-aircraft j aircraft cannon shells to the monster shells fired by naval guns, are given a perfectly fitting, battle dress of ; paint. "But why paint a shell?" asks j Jack Dynes, writing in the March : issue of C-I-L Oval, and gives as ' reason one : protection, and as rea-n two : identification. The shell is carefully painted to | preserve the surface during transit from the filling plant to the fighting ' front, to protect the shell again<-l abrasion owing to rough handling and against oxidation caused by prolonged exposure while in storage, and to identify it and its explosive charge, by its colour, to the gunner.

ADDRESSES ON THE MOVE... ^M4/atfA*r PRIORITY WHEN a man is wounded in action or seriously ill, he is rushed through field and base hospitals with all possible speed, to the place where most effective treatment can be given. Because of this rapid movement, his mail may not "catch up" for some time, yet, if ever he longed for a letter from home, it is at such a time. To offset possible delays, a new "Short-Cut" mail service has been put into effect. A Priority Casualty Card is filled in and rushed by Air Mail to his friends or relatives with instructions to add the words "In Hospital" to the unit address they usually use. Letters mailed from Canada bearing the words "In Hospital" are routed direct to the records office in the United Kingdom or the Central Mediterranean Force, as the case may be. They are given preference in transport, whether sent by Air Mail or regular mail. Thus they will reach the addressee faster than ever before. It is inevitable that in tracing men who have been moved, or wounded, some delays occur. But you can rest assured everything that can mean speedier deliveries of letters to your men is being well and thoroughly done -- and will be done. When you get a Priority Casualty Card be sure the words "In Hospital" are added to the regular unit address when writing overseas. CANADA POST OFFICE HON. W. P.
