G. B. SHAW AND WAR No Gas-mask, But a Hat Specially Designed George Bernard Shaw does not carry a gas-mask. He has devised his own air-raid precautions, and this week he came up to London to place orders for ono hat, lined to safeguard the Shavian skull against shrapnel; one white coat, as a warning to motorists; and one white walking stick. “My warden has fixed me up with a gas-mask at my Hertfordshire home/’ he said, “but I find it a bit of a nuisance to carry about with me." “What about the beard?" he was asked. “Oh, that," he laughed. ‘The warden managed to fix it up quite comfortably, thanks." Shaw remembers the last war well enough to know the danger of falling r hrapnel. "I'm getting a hat made to keep the stuff out," he said. His new hat is to be lined with a form of bakelite.
