RESPIRATORS DEMONSTRATED

The fact that 100 per cent protection was afforded by all wearers of gas masks provided they were properly adjusted, was brought home to a large audience by Lieut. Cmdr. B. M. Douglas, RN. Retd.) yesterday in the fifth of the Air Raids Precautions lectures given at the China Fleet Club Theatre.

At the conclusion of his talk, the lecturer announced that the lecture advertised for January 31 had been put back to February 7 on account of Chinese New Year celebrations.

Col. N. M. S. Irwin, G.8.0.1., of the China Command, will give the final summarising lectures, it was stated. Those having questions to ask should take that opportunity of sending them in writing to the platform when all the lecturers will be present.
