By the use of trenches In the grent
war the opposing forces adopted
means of offense and defense that
3ong antedate the Invention of fire
arms. The Bteel helmet reappeared
after more than 200 years of disuse,
-and many a soldier owes ills life to
the fact thnt the curved surface of
:hls head-covering deflected a bullet.
The trench periscope Is au adaptation
of a device that was Invented nearly
three centuries ago. The barbed wire
entanglement Is only another form of
the ancient abatis, and the fact that
it Is now often painted green to make
it less easy to see Is a link that joins
It even more Intimately to Its proto
type. The pits with sharp spikes nt

projector goes back to the days when
armies deluged each other with burn

of poisonous gases was anticipated by
the Chinese, who for centuries used
"stinkpots."

Airplanes to Subdue Head Hunters.
The next Japanese budget of the
governor general of Formosa will oon
tain an item of $91,500 for a Hying
corps to subdue flic head-hunting nbo
ligincs of thnt Island. Mr. Shimomurn
chief of civil administration of For
mosa, says: "Probably four airplanes
will be used in the first yenr, and op
eratlons will be started as soon as
the formal sanction of the diet Is
obtained. If It Is difficult to secure
the necessary nvlaton. we shall ask
the army to send their nlrmen We
mny also ask the army to train new
aviators specially to meet our re
qulrements. There Is nothing like
nlrplanes for awing Formosnn natives;
experience shows thnt this weapon Is
one of the best for subjugating them.
No economic exploitation of Arl, Dal-

places can be undertaken until after
the savage aborigines nre subdued."
