Backache of any kind is often caused
by kidney disorder, which means that
the kidneys are not working properly.
Poisonous matter and uric acid accumulate
within the body in great abundance,
over-working the sick kidneys, hence
the congestion Of blood causes backashe
in the same manner as similar con-
gestion in the head causes headache.
You become nervous, despondent, sick,
feverish, irritable, have spots appearing
before the eyes, bags under the lids, and
lack ambition to do things.
1.-THE latest and most effective means
of overcoming this trouble is to eat spar
ingly of meat, drink plenty water be-
tween meals and take single Anuric
tablet before each neal for a while" says
the famous DR.. Pierce of Buffalo, N. Y.

FOR CLEAN CONDITIONS

Pershing, Commanding General Of
the American Expepdiiionary Force,
Praises Red Triangle War Work in
France.
Although the Y. M. C. A. has been
extremely busy on the other side of
the water ever since the beginning of
the war, very few Amricans here al
home have been able to form the
slightest conception of the vast
amount of ground that has already
been covered by red triangle war work
crs in their gallant fight for clean liv-
ing conditions and wholesome social
environment for the millions Of boys
in khaki. With only about 300 secre-
taries and assistants in the field
enough has been accomplished TO call
forth the congratulations of no less an
authority than General John J. Perish
ing, commanding general Of the
American expoditionary force in
Europe. In reply to letter from the
association secretary in France, con-
tanning statement Of the work that
has been successfully carried through,

NO LICENSE FOR ALIENS
Attorney General Says They Can't
Hunt In Residents Glass

The question has recently arisen as
to the granting of resident hunting
license to aliens who had taken out
their so-called first papers before be-
ing granted their final papers, had
been certified for service under the
selective draft. Vito Santero, Of
Bethel, was the man under whom the
question arose. 1t was claimed that
he was entitled to hunting license
upon the payment of he fee required
of residents. The matter was referred
to State Fish and Game Commissioner
Linus Leavens, who being uncertain
about the matter, referred it in turn
to Attorney General Herbert G. Barb
err of Brattleboro, who rules as fol-
lows:
"That every man between the ages
of IL and 81 was compelled to register
under the draft law, irrespective of
whether he was an alien or not. Upon
his appearance before the exemption
board he could then claim the right of
exemption upon the grounds of his
being an alien. A person does not be-
come citizen Of the United States
until he has completed all the steps
required by the naturalization laws
and the fact of filing first and second
papers alone does not make him a
citizen. The certification of man for
service in the army under the draft
law who has taken out first papers
does not automatically act as final
step in naturalization so as to make
him citizen.
"Under the ruling of your depart
ment, therefore, such men would not
be entitled to a resident hunting and
fishing license until they have finally
completed all of the steps required
upder the federal naturalization laws"

BURR AND BURTON NOTES

On Wednesday morning Miss Palm
er was called upon to give an i'm
promptu talk on the mayoralty elec-
ton in New York City. Personally,
think it's pity Miss Palmer could not
have done some prediction speaking
in the city. Well, at any rate, there's
some consolation in the thought that
we women voters of New York can
join our forces in getting the right
man into Office next time.
On Thursday afternoon a mass
meeting of the school was called to
elect the officers for this years Bur-
tonian. The following were unanim-
ously elected:
Editor in chief, Hazel Brown.
Managing editor, Basil Walsh.

James Bebee, Winifred Manley.
Associate editors: Howard Wilson,

Buck, alumni; Benjamin Levin, ex-
changes.
We wish~to extend the. sympathy of
the school to Miss Efie Phelps, the
news Of whose operation greatly
shocked us all. We are very happy to
learn Of its success, and we wish her
a speedy recovery.
This has been very busy week at
Burr and Burton. Mid-terms, pleas
urablc enough in themselves, robbed
Us Of our social on Thursday night.
The early part Of the week saw the
launching Of our educational campaign
for the big Y. NJ. c. A. Increment,
eliminating in our mass meeting on
Saturday. Rows Of war pictures,
strung across the front Of the chapel,
were contributed by the students, and
succeeded in better acquainting us
with the facts and in making US more

Sibility. Mr. Brooks further visualiz-

"FOUR MINUTE MEN"

The Committee on Public Informa-
tion of Washington, d. c., through the
Vermont Committee on Public Safety
has arranged for a group of "Four
Minute Men" for Manchester and vi
cinity whose principal work will be to
give four minute talks at the movie

public gatherings when those in
charge of such gatherings desire it.
Their subjects and the information
they give are such as are assigned by
the Government.
The Ambramson Bros, who conduct
the. movie shows at Manchester Depot,
have signified their desire and willing
ness to cooperate with the govern
ment in this matter and a "Four Min

NEW ENGLAND CUT
ACCORD CAMPAIGN
Stock Up the Wood Shed. Coal May
Be Harder to Get Next Year Than

Stock Up the Wood Shed. Coal Ma.
Be Harder to Get Next Year Thar
This.
Coal is in great demand all through
New England, but, in spite of the bes'
endeavors Of the fuel administrator
the supply has fallen far behind tht
requirements. The situation is seri.
GUS.
At the present time New England
is several million tons of soft coal
short Of its needs, and while the hard
coal supply was reasonably satisfac-
tory two months ago there was fall
ing-of during September and October,
SO that there is not enough now COM
ing forward to meet the increased
uses.
Every effort has been and is being
made by the fuel administrator to
facilitate shipments and to secure the
economical utilization Of the coal re-
ceived. Many relatively unnecessary
forms of use have been curtailed or
even eliminated.
The fact remains that the outlook
for any improvement in future deliv-
cries for New England is unfavorable,
and it has become the duty of the ad-
ministrator to advise the public Of
these facts, and to urge that personal
and community prudence and national
patriotism require that New England
should begin at once to utilize as fully
as may be the native cordwood sup
plies.
As a recent conference of fuel oflic-
ials, woodland owners, wood dealers,
the Grange and others interested, rep
resenting all the New England States,
the opinion was unanimously express
ed that an organized effort should be
made without any delay to provide a
store of wood sufficient for immediate
and future needs.
The reports from the several states
indicated positively that supply of
wood now on hand is everywhere short
even of normal requirements, and that
there nowhere appears to be any
danger of glutting the market through
any cutting activity that may be in
In view of the likelihood
that there will be an even greater
stringency in the coal situation later
in the season, and with the possibil-
ity that these conditions may not be
improved another year,
the present or future market for good
bears most promising ap-
pearance.
1t was further recommended by the
conference referred to above that an
appeal should be made to local COM
mittees of public safety in all wood |
producing localities, and to county |
agents as well, to take an inventory of
al available supplies Of cordwood
stumpage that are situated within a
distance of a market, and
TO endeavor forcefully to arrange for
its cutting without delay.
1t is therefore earnestly requested
that the Oranges and the farmers
,lubs will Immediately take an active
part in cooperating with the local
committees on public safety in this
matter. This work is being
lone in Vermont under the direction

was hurt but Mr. Mead's car was
severely damaged and he was badly
frightened.
