THREE SEVERE TESTS Shots were fired irom the 200 and SOD-yard ranges. The implement proved conclusively to be. a most complete protection. The bullets made very little impression, and cer- tainly did not smash the shovel- Bullets picked up in the vicinity showed perfect mushroom forma- tion. This afternoon further tests were carried out, this time, the Laird-Mentyne machine gun being us- ed instead of the rifle. This is an en- tirely new machine gun made at Coventry, England, and may be used by the Canadian contingent. As in the case of the rifle, little impres- sion was made on the protecting shovel. The shovel was next pepper- ed with reVOlver shots fired by Lieut :WinfieldSitton of the headquarters stat! at ten paces. Even at this short 'range the aeaVy bullet had no eflect ion the armor-plate shovel, which Weighs about four pounds.
