Dealing in Stolen Cars Costly.

G. III. Comstock of Westminster con,
tributed $500 more Wednesday to the
large amount he had already paid out in
handling stolen Ford automobiles. In
the municipal court in Bellows Falls he
pleaded guilty to the charge of having in
his possession car which he knew to
have been stolen, and Judge Thomas II.
OBrien fined him $500 and costs of SIS. 35,
which he paid. The fine was the maxi.
mum fine for the offense charged
For some time Comstock had been out
on bail of $500. He filed an application
to have an information filed against him,
which was done by States Attorney w.
r. Daley OF Brattleboro, and on this in
formation he was arraigned in court
Wednesday.
A large number of Ford cars, of which
some 10 or more were stolen principally
in Springfield, Mass., were delivered to
Mr.. Comstock, who paid on an average
about $500 each for them, He would sell
them at various prices,
A Springfield man confessed to having
stolen the cars and assisted the police in
locating some of them. As fast as they
were located the purchasers would de-
mand their money back from Mr.. Com.
stock, some Of them demanding and re-
eeiving more than they paid.
It is estimated that In this way Mr..
Comstock paid $4,000 or more, which was
in addition to the price for which he
bought them, so that his dealings up to
date in Ford cars stolen by other parties
has cost him 81 900 if not more.

ANOTHER polio" NURSE
Has Been Secured to Assist Throughout
Vermont.

The Vermont state board of health
through the Vermont poliomyelitis FUND
established in 1914, has secured the serv.
ices OF another woman expert, Miss Self
ridge of Boston, to aid in caring for vic.
Tins of poliomyelitis in different parts
of the state.
Up to the present time, there have been
two nurses, Misses King and Merrill, who
have devoted all their time to travelling
through Vermont and seeing that the
different victims of the paralysis attend
to their muscular exercises, which DIR.
Lovett, the famous poliomyelitis surgeon,
has recommended for them, since begin
ming his series of treatments here three
years ago.
The women nurses have the use of
automobiles so as to enable them to
reach cases even in the most isolated
rural districts. Through their efforts,
victims almost entirely crippled have re
gained the use of their limbs and expe-
rience no discomfort from the effects of
the disease.
The addition of another nurse was
made necessary to carry on the wcri;
completely and thoroughly Miss Self
ridge, who has been recently associated
with DR.. Lovett in his work of aiding
paralysis victims Throughout: Massachu-
sets, New York, Virginia and Minnesota
by the so-called vermont system" or
muscle training, has had muc'' experience
in caring for cases of poliomyelitis. The
recent outbreak in Washington county,
in the vicinity of which there have been
almost 20 cases of the disease, has added
much TO the work Of nurses.
