Gas Is No Respecter of Persons
���An infernal machine of the trenches. This small cylinder, when filled with the proper chemicals, will manufacture enough asphyxiating gas to kill hundreds of men. It is one of the many which are used by the Austrians in overcoming the enemy's forces before .an attack
��The children of towns on the firing line may meet gas at any moment on their way through the streets. Here are seen school children of Rheims lined up for the inspection of their gas helmets. So many gas attacks are launched in the immediate neighborhood of this vmfortunate French city that no one is safe in the streets without a gas mask ready for immediate use. The school children are required by their teachers to carry a helmet, and if upon inspection the masks are found faulty or missing, the offending pupils are punished. Below is a French mother adjusting her daughter's gas mask before she leaves the home
