Useful Suggestions for this Necessary Treatment. l Always use apolei saw and pole shears on the tips of long branches, and use "se pole hook in removing dead branches of the ailanthus and other brittle trees where it would be too dangerous to reach them other- wise.

The wearer puts the helmet on like a fencing mask, and is able to secure it firmly to the neck by the means of straps (see sketch 2). The steel is so shaped at various angles to deflect rifle and small machine gun bullets. Tests which have been made upon the headpiece with bullets of small calibre show that the design is effective. The Sniper's Helmet-The Latest German Device. The two sketches reproduced above illustrate a German sentry or snip- er'a helmet recently adopted by the enemy. The helmet, which was found by the French in a German trench near Chaulnel, is of steel, three-eitrhths of an inch thick, and weighs slightly under 14 pounds. As will be seen by the front sect ion (see sketch 1) it is shaped on the lower part of the right side in order that a man wearing it can use a rifle. In shape it resembles half of the headpiece of a suit of armor of the 12th or 13th centuries. Although the eye- holes are only two very narrow slits, about iive-eighths of an inch long Ind one-sixteenth of an inch wide, the wearer can see sufficiently to secure the range of the object to sight the rifle. 12.
