CHAPTER XII For the first few seconds after George Barbour slumped to the floor, no one moved. Then, sud- denly, pandemonium broke loose. Lieutenant O'Leary had darted around the desk, He walked swift- ly over to the bookcase where he had been probing that afternoon and, atter a moment's inspection, •lie turned and went to the side of the man lying on. the floor. When he looked up, his jaws were clenched in determined lines, "He's dead," he said as if to Himself. "Oh, Lord—not another one!" Dale groaned.

One in 10 had been damage& beyond repair. Another Due in 10 had been damaged but was repairable. Three in 10 were found to be too small because the children have grown since the masks were issued. First issue of gas masks to ci- vilians in Britain was in Septem- ber, 1P38, during the crisis which ended at Munich. More were issued when the war began nearly a year later.
