London, Dec. 12.-The last remnants
of gypsy band that has wandered
aimlessly about England for years was
rounded up in Sheffield today, one
man being mustered into the army

Before the conscription law became
effective there were hordes of gypsies
and van dwellers following their peri
patetic existence throughout England
and Scatland. Practically all of then
are now either serving with the army
or doing war work.

This may be removed by buying new
