All Windsor and the surrounding countryside were out to welcome their monarch back. Windsor was decorated as seldom before. Not a single house or shop on Castle Hill, or in the main street of the city, was without gay decorations. The King, accompanied by Queen Mary, had had a remarkable recep- tion throughout their 2',i hour trip from (^raigwell House. Bognor, where the King ha dspent several mouths. Hut it remained for Windsor to outdo all the others as it welcomed again it smost prominent resident. Thousands of cheering spectators, iiiclnding 2,000 school children and l.UUO Eton boys lined the ancient thoroughfare. As the royal car drove tlirough, bags of rose petals were emptied from windows and fell in a crimson cascade about tha ma- chine. It was the first time most of the inliahitants of Windsor had seen tha King since late last year. All along the line there were cries of: "Clod bless your majesties!" ami "Welcome home: " At the bottom ot Castle Hill which rises steeply up toward the ancient gray stone pila wove waiting tha Mayor and aldermen.

During the w;ir. blue cross gas cut across No Man's Land, paving the way for the lungdpstroyiug yellow cross gas. I'crlmps the greatest plant for its maiiufaclure was con- structed at Wahu. about 20 miles from Cologne. In accordance with the Versailles Treaty the plant was scrapped, but the great supply ot gas defied dispo- sition. I'-or tun years the couiiniinity struggled with the problem, and every meiiiis practical, theoretical nnd bi- zarre was given trial. At first they tried to bni-n the gas but the farmers declared their erops were being ruined. Neutralizing jMocesses failed to produce results. .V suggest ion that tlio stug be buried at sea was rejected n-hen it was consid- ered that it might be dangerous to transport the gas up the Uhiiie. .Moreover, fishermen objected strenu- ously. Compromise Solution Meanwhile, as a comproiniso solii- 1 tion, the gas had been stored in aliont I three feet ot soil under tlie factory. I but the soil was sandy, and it was believed it would infect the subsoil water. . When the factory was dis- mantled, it was feared the gas might rise through the soil to pollute the? aii above it, a fear infensilied by the Hamburg gas leak disaster. So the authorities cast about for a final solu I tion. I The new plan called for two vast I liHrmetically-sealed. underground I vaults, one of which Is still under con- I structiun. .\ crew of men, in gas i masks, rubber suits and thickly- I iiadded gloves and shoes, was engag- ed to remove the blue cross gas to what it is hoped will be Its last rest- ing place. Officials similarly garbed and the city physician were on hand to li<dp out in case of emergency. The completed vault was built by digging a pit 20 feet below the sur- face of the ground. The walls ar« ot six inch concrete, scraped and tarred to seal cracks. Tha floor is bedded with a one font layer ot water-impervious clay, and the sides are two feet deep in tlia same sub- stance. When the vault was filled. a roof of tar. concrete and day was placed over it. and on top of this about ten feet of earth. by this advantageous market to the greatest Tossible extent.
