Water Gap Gets Camp
For Wounded Soldiers

Bangor. Dec. 6.-The United
States government has completed
|negotiations for the establishment at
Delaware Water Gap of a camp for
|convalescent soldiers. Agents spent
|the last week at the resort making
arrangepents to rent. with the priv
|lege of purchasing the Gaps larg-
est and best equipped hostelries, all
|of which are along the main street.
Hillcrest. owned by Frank How
|ard, was rented to the government
ION Saturday for the period of the
war and for six months thereafter.
|it is proposed to obtain the Della
WARE House, RiVerview. Forest
House and Castle Inn as soon as ne
gotiations now pending are settled.
The plan is to place convalescents
at the Gap who have their homes in
the Delaware and Lehigh valleys, so
that relatives and friends will not
have a long distance to travel to
Dit them. At least 1000 soldiers
'an be accommodated at these ho-
tells during the winter months and
double that number in summer.
TO care for these men the gov
ernment will employ about $50
nurses and as many cooks. Other
buildings will be erected for emer-
GenCy purposes.

DEPLETED HERDS
I'm FRANCE CUT
MEAT ALLOWANCE
6hiploads of Rations Required
From This Country to
Meet Deficiency

Washington, Dec. Cur soldiers
are pouring into France by the tens
6 Of thousands. They have carried
e syith them rifles and ammunition and
Euipment-and food.
France cannot feed the American
Army. Every ybody knows that. She
i $ in such desperate straits that not
zDnly must we send shiploads of ra-
ztions to our boys but we must send
zother shiploads to help keep up the
wonderful spirit of the French ma
ion. Meatless days in Pennsylvania
#nean happier days in France both
FOR American fighters and French
soldiers and civilians.
Fred e. Pitney, writer in France,
zshows why Pennsylvania should be
willing to make the sacrifice asked
by the Food Department of the Com
#nittee of Public Safety: "To what
zcXtent the herds have disappeared is
shown by the cutting down of the
zneat ration of the soldiers at the
front. At the beginning of the war
Il hey We're allowed one pound of
i zmeat a day. Twenty per cent. has
#now been cut. from that allowance.
#Only dire necessity will countenance
reducing the food allowance of SOL
oilers at the front.
Frances herds suffered enormous
|y at the very beginning. \ total of
approximately 100000 cattle. sheep
and hogs from the French herds
|were seized by Germany in the in
|yaded provinces. Coming immedi-
lately on top of this loss France found
herself compelled to find food for
some millions of Belgian and French
refugees. England undertook to sup
|ply France with $500 tons of meat
n year until February of this year.
|At that time the English supply
stopped. England was having all she
could do to feed her own people on
reduced rations.
Thus since February France has
had to supply from her own resources
|t32, 900 tons of meat to her armies.
/ ,42S,0OO tons for the civilian popu
laton and another $4,000 tons for
refugees, making a total of 100000
tons of meat a year demanded by
France. France must have more meat.
Meat, meat. meat and again meat is
|the pressing need for France"

Says Miss II. Stoll, 1895 Monroe St,
Harrisburg, II was ailing for a long
time with stomach trouble and ner-
vousness, on rising in the morning
felt all tired and worn out - and
usually had a nasty dull headache.
After eating would bloat and belch
up a nasty sour substance and had
a sour taste, was also troubled with
heartburn.
Sometimes I would get severe
nervous spells which left me feel
ing just tired out.
II took all kinds of medicine but
nothing did me any good. Sanpan
had been doing such wonderful work
for some neighbors that / started to
take it.
well I am restored to health by
Sanpan. we feel that we can't get
along without it and will always keep
a bottle in the house as a stitch in
time saves nine"
