NORTH RYEGATE

A traveller in passing along the
road through No. 6, taking particular
notice of country places, remarked
on the scenery, saying the view from
the top of the Holmes Hill was more
than grand. Then the eye fell on
the apple orchard Of Burns Page, and
the maple grove of John Gates, the
prosperity that was visible in the
good buildings, and fertile farms.
The impression on the mind was that
No. was nearing the front. This
traveller was from New York City and
thought any man that owned a good
farm and was not proud of their lib
critics and heritage must be blind
in one eye at least

VICTORY FOR ACADEMY

Opened the Foot Ball Season by De-
feating Newport High School to O.
st. Johnsbury Academy opened
their foot ball season on the campus
Saturday afternoon with victory of
6 to over the Newport High school
eleven. The local team were the ag-
gressors throughout and the touch
down by Elliott in the second period,
the only score of the game, was well
earned.
The Academy team showed the
effects of good training and with the
exception of one or two rather weak
places in thesline appear to be in
strong with Griggs, Gilfillan and FL
lott the star actors. Gray and
Noyes alternate at quarter and either
one manages the plays in way that
gets results.
The visitors were strong in the
back field and practically all of their
gains were made through st. Johns
bury's line, Allison and Kipp being
called on in nearly every play.
Neither side scored in the first
period, but the locals held Newport
for downs when only a yard was
needed. This was the only time dur
ing the game that the ST. Johnsbury
goal was in danger. In the second
period Gray and Hill began their
clever forward passing and made big
gains and then when within striking
distance Gray showed good judgment
by calling on Gillian. Max made
two substantial gains and then Eli
oft was sent over to register the
only touch down. Gray failed to
kick the goal In the last two periods
the teams seemed to play on about
even terms and neither goal was in
danger. A good game is promised

CHURCHES TO DENOUNCE CURE
FRAUDS
National Crusade on Tuberculosis
Day Against Use of Fake Rene
dies for Consumption


Day Against Use of Fake Rene
dies for Consumption
From thousands of pulpits in all
parts of the United States, fake cures
for consumption will be exposed and
denounced on tuberculosis Day, Oct.
27. This is part of the program for
the movement announced recently
by the National Association for the
Study and Prevention of Tubercu-
losis.
Literature giving information on
fraudulent and alleged cures for
consumption will be sent to clergy
men all over the country, and an or
ganized crusade against the traffic in
these drugs and devices will be insti-
tuted. The literature will be sent to
ministers either directly from the
National Association Office in New
York or through the many state and
local anti-tuberculosis associations
scattered throughout the country. 1t
is estimated that over 100000 clergy
men will be reached in this way.
From actual records on file in the
Office of The National Association, it
il estimated that the volume of bust
ness done annually by the various
concerns who sell fake remedies for
Tuberculosis amounts to well over
1915, 100000. The number of these
remedies now being used as so-called
cures is over 500.
Three classes of cures are dis
Itinguished by the National Associa-
ton. In the first class are included
hundreds of devices and drugs which
can be bought for any sum ranging
from ten cents 20 five dollars at a
drug store. The second class of
cures includes the institutes, .
professors" or companies of doc
tors" who for a consideration guar
antee to cure consumption by some
secret method of which they are the
sole proprietors. There are nearly
one hundred and fifty of these insti-
tute frauds in the United States,
cheating the people out of millions
| of dollars annually.
In the third class of "cures" are
placed number of homemade rem
Iedies, which either through ignor-
ance or superstition have been ad-
vanced as treatments for tuberculo-
sis. Some of these are onions, lem
ons, rattlesnake poison, coal dust,
lime dust, pigs blood, dog oil, milk
''stripings," and even alcohol.
None of these remedies will cure
consumption, declares The Nations
al Association. No drug, gas or
other material has yet been discov-
cred, which, when eaten, inhaled OF
injected into the system, will kill
the germs of tuberculosis without do
ing serious injury to the body. The
only real cure for tuberculosis recog-
nized by The National Association
consists of the combination of fresh
air, good food, and rest taken und-
er the direction of competent ply
stefan.

Never before has this clever artist
been able to surround himself with
so talented and clever company as
this season. The fact that in many
of the larger New England cities the
clergy have extended patronage to
Paul-Marcel should speak volumes
for his efforts 10 give the French
people clean, pure plays; this being
his declared object and aim, and he
has adopted as his motto "Amuse
and entertain but do not offend. Z"
''LAmour Vainqueur" in which he
will be seen on Saturday evening is
one of the best evidences of mis- eff
forts as it is a Play at which the
most carping of critics could not
point a finger.

company is a very large and capable
one. The play is founded on George
McManus' famous cartoons with a
book by Aaron Hoffman and Paul
West; lyrics by Seymour Brown, Nat

ton. A pony ballet termed THE
