Some surprise bas been expressed
In many quarters that the massing of
German troops should have taken
place unobserved by allied aviator*,
both before the German push on the
Somme In March and before the last
drive against the French positions
between Soissons and Rheims.
An expert points out that though
airplanes and their crews can do a
surprising number of things, one
which is impossible for an airplane is
to enable Its pilot or observer to see
In the dark or to see through a fog.
The airplane le a distinctly locomo-
tive vehlele, and got some new opal -e
cal Instrument.
Those who have studied the eom-
muniques issued prior to the German
attack in March found constant re-
ference to the tact that night bomb-
ing was lmposalble owing to ground
mists, and on various occasions it
was stated that it was Impossible for
our aircraft to ascend until well on
In the course et the morning.
This means the Germans could
move their troops in perfect safety
night after night, and by stowing
them away in towns and villages and
In forests. which abound in that part
of France. an enormous number or
troops could be collected in such a
way as to be absolutely invisible to
the most acute sir scout.
Even on a perfectly clear but dark
night It is practically impossible to
observe the movements of troops.

Intended to give shade during the

sirable shadows at night.
The dtmculties of alr reconnais-
sance bave been increased very ma-
terially by the tact that the Germans
have now such enormous masses of
troops behind every rart of the line
that the movement of the troops In
mass or by trains do not attract at-
tention even in broad daytigkt to the
extent which would have been true
over six months ago. Consequently.,
even the most careful aerial recos-
naissance may fan to estimate cor- C
rattly the excess of the number of
troops massed behind one part of the

part.

When Beards Were Taxed.
In the reign of Elizabeth every
beard of a fortnight's growth was
subject to a tax of 3s. 4d. Peter the
Great, tn. 1705, imposed a tax upon
the beards ot the Russian nobles of
100 roubles, while the common peo-
ple's beard tax amounted to one
kopec. This tax caused much dissat-
isfaction, but in spite of this the In. -
post was extended to 8t. Petersburg
In 1714. The tax on beards was con-
