YALE TO ESTABLISH
 A BUREAU IN PARIS.
It Will Be Branch of the University
 Secretary's Office.

New Haven, Conn, June 7. - An nouncement is made at Yale today that the university has decided to establish Yale bureau in Paris for the period of the war. It will be a. branch of the university secretary's office. Professor George H. Nettleton of the university will act as director of the bureau for the coming year. He will be assisted by recent graduates.
 Professor Nettleton will go to Paris early in the summer to make arrange ments.
 The bureau it is explained, will be centrally located and is designed to meet, in cooperation with the Yale Alumni association of Paris, the needs of Yale men as European headquarters and as a bureau of information. ad- vice, help and inquiry. Tt will be of special service says the announce ment, 'in enabling parents and friends to keep in touch with Yale men at the front. AS over one huzdred Yale graduates are already in France, in various kinds of military service, and as thousands of students and gradu- ates the fitting themselves to go over later with the army, navy or re4ief agencies, it has seemed wise to the university authorities to be forehanded in establishing this bureau, which IS believed to be the first of it's kind ar ranged for by an American universi- ty."

GIRLS! MAKE A BEAUTY LOTION
 WITH LEMONS

At the cost of small jar of ordin- ary cold cream one can prepare a full quarter pint of the most wonderful lemon skin softener and complexion beautifier, by squeezing the juice of two fresh lemons into a bottle con- taining three ounces of orchard white Care should be taken to strain the juice through a fine cloth so no lemon pulp gets in. then this lotion will keep fresh for months. Every woman knows that lemon juice is used to bleach and remove such blennishes as freckles, sa1lowness and tan and is the ideal skin softener. smoothener and beautifier.
 Just try it Get three ounces of orchard white at any pharmacy and two lemons from the grocer and make up a quarter pint of this sweetly fra grant lemon lotion and massage it daily into the face. neck, arms and hands. It should naturally help to whiten, soften. freshen and bring out the roses and beauty of any skin. It is truly marvellous to smoother rough red hands.

 The number of the qualified men at the training camps will be cOmmis- stoned as reserve officers to aid in the training of the new armies as addi- tional officers of each regiment and this class will be drawn upon to sup ply temporary officers for the regulars and active officers for the second five hundred thousand of the selective army.
 Tt is more a matter of enforcing a high standard than of approaching a large number" and the statement adds 'ft should be borne in mind that other training camps will follow if the War continues"

spirit of Canada in her response to England, and the gathering applauded vigorously. The speaker spoke of the sacrifice and service Of the men of 1715 and of '61. 'FWe are now facing this world crisis. and if we do not ac- cept our duty as a sacred obligation because of the sacrifices of our fath- trs, we are worthy to be called slack CTS, psltroons and cravens, unworthy of our sacred heritage"
 Chairman BisseI said that he had been in Washington nearly every week and he could teStify that the serious condition pictures by MT. Chandler were by no means exaggerated.
 George M. Landers, chairman of the committee on food supply. outlined the work being done to increase and con- serve the states food supply. This committee was organized before the defense council was named, and later became part of the council. He said that subcommittee had been organ ized in towns throughout the state. The results were shown by increased acres opened up in all parts Of Con- nccticut.

 The councils office will be open at all times and can be reached by any of these auxiliariy committees. The council will meet at least weekly, on Wednesdays, and stated meetings of the county committees were urged. meetings increase in interest each week. The council will be pleased at a yttme to receive suggestions from functional or county committees" he said.
 Yesterday, from all accounts, Con aecticut made another splendid record in preliminary steps of preparation for this war;" said Mir. Bissen. One of the tasks of your committees will be to cultivate and keep alive such a registration went off a matter of course. It was a great undertaking, but such was the temper of our peo- pie and their understanding of its ob- jects that when the time came the reg istratfon passed without a hitch" The committee must arouse spirit of patriotic devotion thaE will make pos sibIe the successful accomplishment of the many hard tasks which must be met, the chairman declared.
 Chairman Russell introduced Com pensation Commissioner George B. Chandler, chairman Of the committee on publicity MT. Chandler spoke of the body of representative men as- sembled as members of the councils committees. saying that, in the time of crisis, the state har called upon a group, each member of which had dis tinguished himself in some line of activity, as a volunteer to help in it's war activities. "The issues today said MT. Chandler, are freedom yer sus feudalism, the freedom of the seas, the sacredness of agreements, the riO7fS Of TUoroe0 children and mn combatanrs, and the fundamental is sue of law and order. We are at war to determine whether we shall live under organized society or organ ized depotisn.'
 MT. Chandler said that today it can be seen that Germany, far from fail ure. realizes her Pan German dream of an empire stretching from the North Sea to the Black Sea The dream of German strategists was an empire of about 4,000 square miles. Today, said MT. Chandler, she hold an area of B. 500 square miles. She holds in slav- cry S2,000,o0o people.
 NO wonder Germany is ready for peace" he said. NO wonder she is conniNing Stockholm and other in strumentalities to bring out a peace of the basis of status quo."
 If the submarine succeeds. he said. it means England and France will be starved to their knees, 1t means that Germany can demand transports of England and that she can bring a force to America.
 Ut means that within two years, if Germany is not stopped, German army may be marching up the Con necticut Valley to the federal arsenal at Springfield" he said.
 Tt is written in the stars that un- less we win this war, we or our chill dren must face German invasion of America Mir. Chandler declared.

 For several days bands of gypsies have been passing through Fftchville on their way towards HaStford. Fri day evening a band of about 16 men, women and children. travelling in three two-horse covered wagons, camped by the roadside between Fitchv1lle and Yantic In the morning as peop-e were passing by members of the band would stop them and beg matches or tell their fortune. As one man, res- ident of Bozrah, was passing he was approached and as he was about to give them a few cents a gypsy woman who insisted upon telling his fortune his hand. Before she could get away with the money the man grabbed her and recovered all but a s5 bill.

 about six miles from Middletown when the gypsy camp was discovered back in the woods. The camp was sur rounded and the woman alleged to have taken the money identified and arrested, brought back to Bozrah and lodged in the Norwich station house to await trial Monday morning.
 The trial Monday evening attracted more people to the town house in l Bozrah than has been seen there in several years, there being eight large touring cars of gypeies in attendance besides several of the townspeople at tracted by the sight of the gypsy band.
 Brought before Justice of the Peace John J. Sweeney, she was fined S1 and costs, the costs amounting to $90.66.
 All kinds of excuses and bluffs were given trying to evade payment. The | gypsies declared they had no money 1 and could not pay but would leave | town immediately If the accused was given her freedom, but when they saw preparations being made to return the woman to the Norwich jail they pro- ducerd the necessary amount, $91.66, and paid.

 Early in the war, he pointed out, the task of planning for the conflict was put in the hands of the Council of Ma tionaI Defense The first step was the appointment of an advisory comrnis- sion, 2 permanent organization with a, large number of subcommittee and boards Members of the advisory com 1nictee and the subcommittee serve without pay or expense allowance.

WHAT U. s. MUST DO TO
 SUSTAIN ITS ALLIES IN FOOD. Their Needs of Cereals, Meat, Fats and
 Sugar Will Be Enormous.

Washington, June 7.-Herbert c. Hoovers S report to the government on what the United States must do to sustain its allies in food, made public today, shows that the allies and a few neutrals, which must be considered require during the next year a billion bushels of cereals alone and that their needs of meat, fats and sugar also will be enormous.
 Production in the allied countries and imports from other countries can meet only a portion of these needs; America must supply the remainder Americas surplus on the present scale of consumption will not meet the de- ficiency, MT. Hoover says, so he points out the enornity of the task requires reduction of home consumption in many ways.
