Health of Army at Home
Reported Satisfactory

Washington. April 1l.-Health con-
ditions throughout the army at home
continue satisfactory, says the weekly
report issued today by the war depart
ment, although the hospital admission
rate increased over the preceding week.
Influenza and mumps are the chief
diseases noted, the latter frequently
complicated with pneumonia account
ing for the rising admission rate. All
mcnts among drafted men contracted
before they entered the camp have
swelled the sick rates. The total num-
Der OF deaths for the week ending
April S, was 200, as against 237 the
previous week.

Third: If he has purchased War

makes it clearly impossible for him
to take the amount of Third Liberty

redeem enough of his w. S. s. to
