The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1918-04-08

Frequent raiding OF the American sec
tor by the Germans is evidence that the
Germans are worried over what General
Pershing may do while they are engaged
in force some distance to the north, The
raids are probably not to gain ground or
infct casualties but to gain information
of the movement and activities of the
American forces.

THE NEW LIFE.
By Zoe Atkins of The vigilantes.


This il an Intermission; Time stands
still,
And we--as lost as children in a
haze
To take from some heritage of other
days
Forgotten faith and unsupported will;
We have gone back, like children, to
our knees,
And we have learned the sad and
splendid pride
OF those whose dearest gloriously
died,
knowing our own face Death across the
seas.
Oh, after this-when joy-bells ring out
peace,
And home our war tired heroes come
again,
Shall we not vow ourselves, when war
shall cease,
To new lifef And prove that not IN
vain
We saw the Prussian sword drawn from
its sheath
And neutral lands-and children-fall
beneath!

A NEW IDEA FOR A SHOWER
GIVEN FOR A BRIDE-TO.BE

We recently had a letter from q
friend in another city, who described
an novel idea carried out Mt q shower
given on q bride-to-be in that city.
The menu was composed of all kinds
Of good things to eat, but strictly Of
Q food conservation idea. no sugar or
butter, and very little white -four be-
ing used in the making Of the dainties
served, substitutes being used instead
At each guests plate was q place
card the size Of an index card (corres-
pondence cards would do nicely) and
on one side Of each card was the day
and date Of the shower, on the other
side Of the card was typewriter the
recipe for one of the dishes served at
the luncheon. No two cards had the
same recipe. At the close of the
luncheon, each guest in her turn rose,
and with q merry little poem or speech
presented the bride-to-be with their
place cards.. Last Of all the hostess
presented her with . dainty little box
for filing the recipe cards. Such o
gift caHnot help but be Appreciated by
the one receiving it, asst will help her
to solve many food problems in her
own home.

ers have siezed upon the idea Of max
ing dainty little bags to match the
gown worn by the guests or . dainty
Jewel case that holds certain amounts
Of sugar. These little jewelled cases
come in all manner Of styles, shapes,
and prices. Those who cannot afford
the Sugar case" have . silk bag to

ARMY LOUISE ROUTED
American Army the Most SAM
tary in the World.
Hot Baths and Clean Underwear aid
Them. of Ills Common to
Soldier.

Paris. - The American army in
France is the most sanitary in the
world. The discovery that the louise
was the carrier of trench fever and
that scabies-the seven-years' itch of
Bible fame-and other skin diseases
are conspicuously reduced by cleanli-
ness led the army staff to take meas
ures to rid the Yankee soldiers of
these evils. It was decided that clean
make the Yank immune from many Of
the ills common to the soldier in
France. General Pershing ordered that
his army be equipped with efficient IA
cilities to insure every man in the
army a change of clothing and a bath
at least once, and, if necessary, twice
q week.
The soldiers, as they return from
active duty, are received in squads.
They disrobe and turn in their cloth
ing. Then they spend half a minute
under hot shower, half a minute I'M
der cold one, two minutes soaping
their bodies and then another half a
minute under warm shower for rims.
ing. They emerge to receive clean I'M
derWear, sox and shirt and, if neces-
sary, q clean uniform. The whole
process takes 31a minutes plus time
for dressing and undressing.
The underwear the men leave when
entering goes to the laundry wagons.
1t goes through the washing and ster-
ilizing process and is issued again, a
day or two later, to other troops.
Lice, known as "cOoties" in the sol
dier's vocabulary, have been common
to all armies in the war, but serious
efforts to eXterminate them were not
made until they were found to be germ
carriers. The new American plan, it
is believed, will effectively rid the
army of them. There were cases in
the American army, during the fight
ing of the past summer, where officers
and men did not remove their clothing
for as long period as six weeks. I'm.
der such circumstances lice ceased to
be a terror, ceased even to be sub
ject of jest.
