 To those who have seen her during these past four years her cheerfuiness and patience in an illness which as "a nurse she soon realized could have but one ending, have been a constant source of wonder and inspiration.

MILEAGE BOOK TAX. Causing Much Bother for New Haven
 Road Conductors.

The new regulations regarding the war tax placed upon mileage books has caused conductors on the New Haven read time and patience in replying to many questions. Many explanation have to be made to the owners of books purchased prior to Nov. 1 who cannot grasp the meaning of the new law clearly.
 Each mileage book used must bear a war tax stamp according to the new law set forth by the government. When a book is purchased, in addition to the regular Iriee of the mileage, the owner pays revenue Persons who bought books prior to the first of the month were not taxed, but now have to pay a tax for every mile they ride or pay the amount of the revenue for the number of miles left in the book.
 Conductors are forced to listen to E,any protests made by patrons of the read who cannot see clearly into the matter. A protest is never made to refuse to pay the tax. Many, how ever, refuse to pay for all the mileage left in the book, stating that if the took is lost they will lose both the price of the tax and the cost of the mileage.
 Patience is what every conductor in tEe New Have en's employ is using. and when the war is over, as one conductor expressed it, they will all have fine educations.
