STRENUOUS PROGRAM FOR
NORWICH TRAINING CAMP

The program which is being mapped
out for the military training camp at
Norwich University is a strenuous
one, calculated to prove particularly
helpful to any who have it in mind to
attend the reserve officers training
camp at Fort Myer, Va, which opens
August 27, or who hope to gain pro-
motion from the ranks. The instruc-
ton will be in infantry drill supple
mented by course in horsemanship
and the schedule will be very similar
to that followed at Plattsburg and
other government training camps
particular attention being given to
semaphore signalling and the new
style of trench bayonet fighting which
has rendered the old bayonet exercise
obsolete.
The course of instruction for the
officers of the newly created volunteer
regiment, who will be in attendance at
the Norwich camp for period Of ten
days beginning July 5, will vary
somewhat from the regular schedule
in order to fit them especially for the
kind of work which they will be called
upon to perform.

Mrs. Emma Langlois, an elderly
widow, living in Burlington, had a
narrow escape from death Sunday
morning, and was forced to watch her
little home, all that she had in the
world, gutted by flames, despite the
strenuous efforts made to save it by
the department. The origin of the fire
which started in the bathroom, Is
somewhat of a mystery, but Mrs
Langlois believes that it was due to
defective wiring. Shortly after two
o'clock, Mrs. Langlois, who lived alone
in the house, was awakened by vol
ume of smoke pouring into her bed
room through a register. She hur-
riedly donned some clothing and, slid
ing downstairs, ran next door, and
summoned assistance. The fire was
particularly hard one TO fight, In addi-
ton TO having a good start, and the
house was gutted, while practically
everything which was not burned was
ruined by smoke and water.

HOORAY FOR NOBODY !!

Constantine's at Baden Baden,
On his way to worse and worse;
Kaiser Bill is in the Bouillon
And the Tsar has PACED hearse.
Alphonse slams the palace windows
At the sound of side street strife,
Since he fears some silly Spaniard
May attempt to blight his life.
And the Sultan's disposition
Has become a dizzy wreck;
There are rumors all through Turke!
Round the wishbone and the neck.
And that kinglet, Alexander,
Sports his crown with little peace,
For since papa took the steamboat
They've had slippery days in Greece
So you see each royal ruler
Has most unhappy lot;
For to-day he is His Jiblets
And tomorrow he is not.

CANNING FRUIT
WITHOUT SUGAR

Washington, d. c., June 26.-f rult
for use in pie or salads or a stewed
fruit can be put up or canned without
the use of any sugar at all, according
to the canning specialists of the de-
partment. They, therefore, advise
those who, because of the high price
of sugar, have been thinking of re-
ducing the amount of fruit they put
up. to can as much Of their surplus as
possible by the use Of boiling water
when sugar syrup is beyond their
means. Any fruit, they say, may be
successfully sterilized and retained in
the pack by simply adding boiling
water instead of hot syrup. The use
of sugar, of course, is desirable in the
canning of all kinds of fruits and
makes a better and ready-sweetened
product. Moreover, most Of the fruits
when canned in water alone do not re-
tain their natural flavor, texture and
color as we'll as fruit put up in syrup.
Fruit canned without sugar to be used
for sauces OF desserts must be sweet
ened.
Directions for Canning Fruits
Without Syrup
Can the product the same day it is
picked. Gull, stem, or seed, and clean
the fruit by placing it in a strainer
and pouring water over 1t until 1t Is
clean. Pack the product thoroughly in
glass jars or tin cans until they are
full; use the handle Of tablespoon,
wooden ladle, or table knife for pack
ing purposes. Pour over the fruit
boiling water from kettle, place rub
bers and caps in position, partially
seal if using glass jars, seal complet-
ely if using tin cans Place the con
tainers in sterilizing vat such as a
wash boiler with false bottom, or
other receptacle improvised for the
purpose. If using a hot water bath
outfit, process for 30 minutes; count
time after the water has reached the
boiling point; the water must cover
the highest jar in container. After
sterilizing remove packs, seal glass
jars, wrap in paper to prevent bleach
ing and store in dry, cool place.
If you are canning in tin cans it will
improve the product to plunge the
cans quickly into cold water immedl-
ately after sterilization. When using
steam pressure Gamer instead OF
the hot water bath, sterilize for 10
minutes with five pounds of steam
pressure. Never allow the pressure to
go over 10 pounds.

dswn their handi work. The wall can
be demolished by anyone who tries to
get at the foundation of the fiction.
Edward NJ. House lives as open a
life as hat of any American whose
profession or business does not call
him daily into the places where men
tllrong. If one wants to know about
him through motives other than those
of the idleness of curiosity he can see
him and talk with him, and the
chances are that he will be told every
thing concerning the subject of his in
quiring curiosity that any man of
modest mien and inclination naturally
would be willing to tell. Colonel House
is a genial man who seemingly never
has sought to define for personal use
the meaning of either of the words,
coldness or austerity. He has a sense
of humor well developed, and a tenn
peramental warmth.
Secret of His Power.
In Houston, Texas, in the year 1858,
Edward NJ. House was born. He was
educated at the Hopkins grammar
school, New Haven, Conn.,, and at
Cornell university. He has been active
all his adult life in Democratic politics,
hit never has been Il candidate for Of
flee.
Add to these admittedly meager de-
tails one fact and unquestionably you
will have the secret of this mans pow
err to attract other men to him for the
purpose of consultation on really high
public matters. From the day that he
was old enough to undertake serious
study, Edward NJ. House has been deep
in the books of politics, economics and
legislation. He has marShaled in his
mind all the greater events which have
happened in these three words. More.
over, he has the men, the things and
the motives connected with each case
constantly in procession before him.
He is quick to trace a to IN eff.
feet, or to go the reverse route. He
has been a student of human nature
as 1t has shown itself in many of the
great problems of human life. This
means hat he has in him, or at any
rate men believe that he has in him
the qualifications which go to make
up a sound diplomat.

rngly ume enough has gone by and
things enough have been proved OF
disproved Il give certainty to the
word hat Woodrow Wilson has found
Edward NJ. House an advisory asset.
There hardly can be much of real
mystery about a man who twice since
this great war began las beer sent
abroad as a special commissioner for
the president of the United States. Col
onel House has been twice in Berlin,
five times in Paris, and frequently in
other of the great European capitals.
Some day it may be hat Woodrow
Wilson will write what may be called
an photographed review of his adj
ministration. If he does it is entirely
likely that the part taken by Colonel
House in the shaping of some of the
policies of the president may be given
the page place which many men be-
lieve that it deserves.
No Mystery There.
While living in New York Colonel
very far uptown. 1t Is a hornelike
place where good books are found and
where good friends may come. 1t is a
genial place and no curtain of mystery
hangs over the door of any one of its
rooms. Men go there and are wei
come. They go and they talk. Man
learns as much from man as he learns
from books and more perhaps If we
believe the ancient saying about the
proper study of mankind.
l asked Colonel House what his rec
reations are. He said, "Friends, read
ing and walking His library shelves
show the kind of books that he has
read, still is reading and will continue
to read, for those in the book cases
are made the companions day by day
of the others as they come from the
hands of writer's worth while.
No mar probably a read politics,
legislation, economics and history con-
stantly without getting some Of DR..
Dry-as-Dust's characteristics. So 1t is
that Colonel House does not read the
four f~ormidables constantly. He turns
to fiction and here one finds something
of possibly more than passing human
interest.
George Frisbie Hoar of Massachus-
etts was n of the scholars In politics.
1t was said of him that he had read
everything from Aristophanes. Frogs

House on public matters. How deep
IN impression he has made or Texas
legislative history never may be known
definitely, but there is enough salient
to make Texans know that they are
right in attributing to him many of
their public welfare acts.
Though not accounted wealthy in
these days of huge fortunes, Colonel
House is quite well fixed financially
and is not engaged in business of any
kind.
Has Studied Hard.
I have talked to Colonel House and
have learned things which make me
feel that l shall not go wrong when l
try to put an Interpretation upon some
of his methods of doing things. He is
free enough to say that he has studied
hard at economic, political and leg's-
lative subjects. He probably eve
would be willing to admit that he
thinks the results of these studies con-
tinued and their results retained, have
enabled him to be of some service
when men were seeking information
concerning events III the past WHICH
have relation to events in the present
or events expected in the future.
Therefore, there is here a man who
has held what he has studied, who
has collated and correlated the hap
penings of history, who has drawn
lessons from them, who takes an in
terest as deep in the living present as
he does in the dead past, and who men
believe is able to make his knowledge
~serviceable, for old as 1t Is let us say
it, history repeats itself.
Woodrow Wilson did not meet his
friend Colonel House until the days
when he was holding office as COVER
nor of New Jersey. 1t is said by
friends of Mr.. Wilson that almost in
stantly he came to understand why
the Texan Rad been of service along
constructive lines to some of the gov
errors of the state in which he has
lived most OF his life. For six or seven
Years Mr.. House has been the conf
liant and the counsellor of the presi-
lent of the United States, aid seem
