They were by no means looked down upon as persons of inferior posi- tion. ‘ They were, in tact, lionized and respected in much the same fashion that -the professional musician is to- day, and they lived on “charity” only in the sense that authors, physicians and members of other respected proâ€" feSsions did, for in those days it was mot possible to commercialize art, and virtually all members of professional and artistic callings had to rely upon the patronage of some member of the nobility for their support.

Modern machinery can chop put the requisite parts from sheets of steel by thousands at small cost. It is not required that the medal clothing shall be decorative, but merely that it shall be bullet-proof. In the war goo-d alloy steel hardly thicker than ordinary blotting paper proved an efiective protection against pistol bullets, the light weight of mo- dern armor being one of its most notable advantages as compared with the old style. French hospital records proved that 70 to 80 per cent of the wounded were injured by nussiles or shell fragments which steel of this small thickneSS would have stopped. Steel alloyed with manganese was found best adapted for helmets of which 7,000,000 were ordered and 2,- 700,000 delivered for the American troops before the war's end. To pre- vent the helmets from reflecting light, they were painted, and while the paint was wet a coat of sawdust was bestow- ed upon them with a blower. So admirable was the craftsmanship of the old-time armorers that improve- ment on their work was obviously out of the question. But the modern war experts were quick to see that they had at their command two very nete- worrthy advantages. One of these was steel made extraordinarily hard with alloys of tungsten, nickel 01' vanadium. The other was machinery.
