out the ravages of the white

The report Of Miss Marie Nelson
the nurse who is constantly In the
employ of the local branch of the
Anti-Tuberculosis Society, has been
submitted to the chairman, and
shows that from June, 1913 to June,
1914, there have been 101 cases of
tuberculosis in this city. OF this
number thirteen patients have died;
thirteen have left the city; five have
entered the Glen Gardner sanato-
ium and three st. Michaels hospital
in Newark In all 1,133 visits were
made and the nurse gave sanitary
instructions at the home, urging es-
pecially the necessity OF using the
sputum cups and burning them when
used. Three thousand of the sput-
um cups have been distributed
through the society, and since Feb
ruary, 1914, the Board Of Health
has been furnishing the cups to the
patients. Miss Nelson states that

there is a tendency to throw the used
sputum cups in ash barrels or other
receptacles, although the patients are
told that they must be burned in or
der to prevent the spread OF the dis
ease.
Visits are made twice a week by
the nurse, who states in her report
that the majority of the visits are
kindly received. She insists in SAN

this way believes that further spread
of tuberculosis is checked.

SEND COTTON
FOR WOUNDED

Answering the appeal for cotton
that comes from Austria-Hungary
through William G. Sheppard, the
United Press correspondent in that
country, Rev. Francis Gross has TAX
Ell steps to have as much cotton as
possible forwarded to the relief of
the wounded. Father Gross is pas
tor of the Roman Catholic church of
Our Lady of Hungary and is natural
ly particularly interested in the
cause, as are all the people of his
parish. This is a question, however,
that is more than any race or re-
ligion. 1t is an appeal to humanity
and we can all do our part to relieve
the suffering no matter on which side
it may be.
For three weeks, according to Mr..
Sheppard the hospitals in Austria
have been absolutely without cotton.
Men are suffering the greatest agony
becauss some of the worst wounds,
where the most sensitive nerves are
exposed, must be bound with coarse
rags. The only way to get cotton in
to Austria-Hungary today is in small
quantities sent by parcel post. Mr..
Sheppard suggests that in sending
the cotton direct it be addressed.
"The Red Cross, Vienna" and
marked Waite Fud Die Verwun-
dete," which means cotton for the
wounded"
Father Gross has been in commu-
nication with Johnson & Johnson, of
New Brunswick. and has been as
sured of all the cotton he wants at

Paris, Nov. 21:--Reports to head
quarters today indicate that the Ger
mans may be about to try new plan
of driving the allied troops from
their trenches in Flanders by the use
of huge steel barges of burning oil.
Barges in great number have been
brought up at the rear, together with
great quantities of crude oil.
1t is believed that 1t is the
intention of the Germans to
launch them along the User canal
and the inundated sections between
Dixmude and the coast.
Fighting along the northern front
was still confined to artillery fire to-
day. There are signs of renewed ac-
tivity of the British from Arras, how
ever, in the movement which has for
its objective the piercing of the Ger
man line of communication.
Along the Aisne attempts have
been made by both German and al
lied forces to resume the offensive
and take up new positions. In the
Argonne above Verdun and further
south and east about St. Mihiel,
fighting of considerable intensity is
reported, without and decisive re-
suits.
The artillery fighting extending
along the western and southern bat
tlefront the artillery of the allies
gained the advantage yesterday, the
official communique today declares
From Nieuport to Ainse and on the
Champagne district the allied fire
held the advantage and the Germans
were prevented from constructing
new trenches.

BATTLE FOR TITLE

(By Hal Sheridan for United Press)
Yale Field, New Haven, Conn,
Nov. 21:-Yale met Harvard here
today in the new Blue bowl. The
stage setting was fitting climax for
one of the most remarkable football
seasons recorded. The biggest crowd
that ever saw a Roman emperor
twiddle his thumbs in life and
death sign to gladiator was OF
bush league size to this one. The
7O,055 and more who were in their
seats when the game began expected
to see the most spectacular football
fight in Yale-Harvard history, but
until the game began at least the
thought of each centered on the fine
sight furnished by the 70,O55' as
sembled in this gigantic bowl-like
structure.
The Crimson was first on the field.
A yell greeted them as they started
signal practice. In the ten minutes
Brbckley was much in evidence. He
kicked several field goals to show
his toe is still in good shape. Then
Yale came in. Bedlum broke lose
and TO. the cheers of many thousand
the blue eleven imbered up. Act
ing Captain Trumbell, of Harvard,
and Captain Talbot, of Yale, tossed
up. Trumbell won the flip and chose
to kick off to Yale. The Blue de-
Tended the south goal.
Mahan kicked off to Legore on the
latter's five yard line. He ran "
back thirty-five yards before Cool
idge downed him. Knowles gained
yard through center. Ainsworth
got another in the same spot. Le-
Gore punted to Mahan on the latter's
twenty-yard line. w~He ran 1t back to
Yales hirty-seven-yard line before
Walden downed him. Bradlee got
five yards off Yale's right tackle.
