FINDS HIS MAXWELL
TRUCK PAYS WELL

Wish to state with pleasure that the
one-ton Maxwell truck we have just
recently bought from you ia in con-
slant service and Is proving entirely
satisfactory in every way.
We make daily trips to Evanston and
pack on all the vegetables We possibly
can get on. and Sundays we use the
truck for picnic parties, carrying as
many as 30 and 25 at one time on long
trips to the country.
We find that the car is Exceedingly
economical in gasoline and oil con-
sumption.
| have used truck for a great many
years and when your Maxwell truck
was shown and demonstrated to me,
it took me bat few minutes to make
up my mind that 1t was the truck
wanted.
The truck has been great help to my
business and can see 1t is on the in
crease every day.
Wish to commend you on the sery-
ice rendered and will be glad at any
time to highly recommend your truck
to all inauirers.
There Is scarcely a day that I de
not see several of the Maxwell trucks
running around. You surely must have
sold a number.
With best wishes.
Very respectfully.

WILL SOON TAKE :
 CENSUS OF NURSES
Idea Suggested by Medical Board Of
 National Council of Defense

Within very short time all nurses of the state graduates undergraduates and practical, will receive census blanks from the military census bu- reau, Hartford. This does not mean that they will be called into the ser vice of their country. Only those who volunteer for such service will be call ed, but because of the numbers who have volunteered and have been called. this work was suggested to the Grads uate Nurses Association of every state by the Medical Board of the National Council of Defense for the purpose of aScertaining the nursing resources of our country at present and to know whether it is necessary tC introduce short courses into our training schools for nurses to train a number of wo- men quickly to meet the emergency. IL is hoped that this step will not be necessary and Miss Albaugh, secretary Of the board of registration of Nurses of Connecticut. urges the nurses4 to Ill in these blanks correctly and promptly, so that the results may he known as soon as possible.

HERE TO INVESTIGATE
 LOCAL FIRE HAZARDS
Are Working for Purpose of Redue- ing Chances of Possible Confiaera- ton.


 Two inspectors of the Conserva lion association of Connecticut arrived in town on Wednesday to investigate lccal fire hazards. They are the ad . vance guard of some sight or teis oili- CTS who may arrive ncre ThuiaESs,. Thus far inspections have been ma de in New Haven, Bridgeport, Waterbury, New Britain. Bristol, Plainvil1e, Naug- atuck, StoHington and a score or more of other places in the state. The work of the inspectors has the endorsement of the Connecticut State Council of Defense and the Council of National Defense and their methods are to make careful surveys of the places recommend that the conditions they find be changed so as to reduce the fire risk as much as possible. There are between thirty and thirty five men engaged in the survey, They are experts in their line. and letters have been sent by the State Council to officials of the cities and towns to be inspected which, it is hoped, will make the task of the inspectors easier. The Council also asks the make their patriotic efforts success full.
 Certain classes of proptrty will not be inspected, notably buildings that companies, comparatively isolated pieces of property that are of little value and buildings that are classed as non hazardous.
 The inspectors will visit the various pieces of property as representatives
 Of the State Council and the State
 government. They will be equipped
 with authorization cards issued by Governor Marcus H. Holcomb and courtersigned by the state marshal
 and by Richard NJ. Bissell of Hart

TO STIMULATE CUTTING OF WOOD FUEL Humble Ak to Take lts Place With

The humble ax is to take. it's place with the rife, the machine gun and the mortar as an instrument of war fare If plans being made by Thomas W. Russell, federal fuel administrator for Connecticut, and his committee on wood for fuel go through successful ". finder the supervision of James $. Siorrow, Federal Fuel Administra- tor for New England the committee has launched plan to stimulate the cutting of wood for fuel this winter as means of relieving the coal short age. which the war continues and thus provides more coal for the needs of the army si!ld navy and the industries up- on Which they must depend

There is, a large quan- tity of wood in the state suitable for fuel some of which is within easy hauling distance of the large cities where the need of coal is perhaps the greatest.
 Wood has been scarce this winter because conditions for the past two or three seasons have been. such as to discourage cutting and marketing, but there is an excellent market this win
 
 tho market will continue to be excel sent for at least another season. The chief difficulty this winter and surety woodSmen say. that the market will continue to be excellent for at least another season. Int chief difficulty this winter in the wood situation is lack of labor, but this can be met if the farme,-S devote more of their at tention than they have in the past to the possibilities Of developing this in- dustry, and the wood for fuel con- mittee contends that it is their patri- otic duty as well their opportunity to do this.

 Frozen Face, the tribal medicine man in love with Pocohantas was talk en by Richard Heberding. Attired in a gorgeous Indian costume and head dress, he pleased the audience with his Medicine Song which com n1enced in a low monotonous chant and worked up to the wild music of the redskins, finally giving way to a genuine war dance which was par ticipated in. by all the warriors.
 Miss Florence Moors sang the role of the Indian Princess, Singing Bird. the daughter of Pocohantas. Miss Moors has a full, strong voice of fine quality and she sang the difficult song Tell Me- with perfect ease. This catchy number which pleased all who heard it. is & care free Indian mel ody, and Miss Moors was excep tionally good in this number.
 Allan Bog1e was Turing Panther. the big war chief who came to carry off Singing Bird by; force but was foiled, by the magic brew of Frozen Face, and Edward Sigrist played Eagle Plume, Singing Birds lover, who won her in spite of Purring Panther S cunning.
