WHITE PLAGUE KILLS
 MORE MEN THAN BULLETS

It seems longer, but it was less than four years ago that the nations had not yet started in to wipe each other off the map and that the only times when one heard of the Red Cross were times of flood or disaster and at Christmas time, when the peaceful lft- tie Red Cross tuberculosis seals made their annual appearance.
 Perhaps, in fact, it was the long, ar- dent fight in America against the White Plague which, in spite of the wars enormous new demands, is responsible for the especial interest being taken by the American Red Cross in Frances frightful struggle against consumption.
 This scourge seems to mark the trench fighter for it's own. It kills more men than do bullets and poison gas combined. Until the American Red Cross was permitted by the French government to start its drive against tuberculosis it looked as if, even with a victory over the Hun, France might eventually be conquered by this deadlier foe.
 Already things are looking brighter. The Red Cross has taken over old hos pitals and built new ones. More than 300 tuberculosis dispensaries are to be opened throughout the country, and Red Cross doctors and nurses-Scores of them-are devoting themselves ex. clusively to this fight, doing over there exactly the same kind of work which is financed in America by the little Christmas seals. It is one of the ways in which by our contributions to the Red Cross America can repay her debt I to France.

half of double header and then caught the second half.
 Dave Robertson, who played beside Benny in the last worlds series, also began his career as a pitcher, Dave pitched for North Carolina State Col lege and Wake Forest College and was regarded as the crack college pitcher of the Virginia Carolina dis trict. He was rated even higher than Eppa Rixey, at that time the star pitcher of Virginia University. Rob- ertson did some splendid pitching in the Tfdewater League, an independ- ent organization, in 1911 and came to the Giants as a pitcher in 1912, but an injury to his shoulder, sustained dur ing football game, spoiled his arm for pitching. He then was tried out at first base and eventually reached the outfield
 Then Beals Becker formerly of the Giants and later with the Reds and Phillies, also started off as a pitcher Becker pitched for Little Rock in 190; and Wichita in 1906, before he began outfie1ding at. the latter place.
 Harry Hooper, like Davey Robert son, was a college pitcher, but the al around ability of the Red Sox stal made it necessary to find a place fol him in the regular lineup. The bril- liant Boston American fly chaser pitched for St. Mary's College in Cal ifornia and in semi-pro ranks in Cali fornia before he took to outfielding Hooper's great arm of today indicat ed what speed he must have pos sessed in his youth when he was { pitcher.

Mothers Here Interested in
 New Treatment
Relieves Colds Over Night and Group in Fifteen Minutes
 Applied Externally.
NOTHING TO SWALLOW,
 YOU JUST RUB IT TN
Local Druggists Have Arranged to Sell 25c, 5Oc, or S1.OO Packages on 30 Days Trial.

Local druggists report a great deal of interest, especially among mothers with small children, in the remarka- ble external ''vapor" treatment, known as Vick's VapoRub, recently introduced here from the South.
 This treatment makes unnecessary dosing with injurious medicines, using flannel jackets and chest pro- tectors, or keeping the children shut up indoors. You can let the little chaps run outdoors and get their needed fresh air and exercise. If colds do start, nip them in the bud' by using VapoRub-it is externally applied and can therefore be used freely and often, with perfect safety, on the smallest member of the family. VapoRub comes in salve form and is applied over the throat and chest, covering with a warm flannel cloth. The body heat releases medicated vapors that are inhaled with every breath, all night long, through the air passages to the lungs. These va vors loosen the phlegm and clear the air passages.
 In cases of very severe chest colds or incipient pneumonia, first apply hot, wet towels over the throat and chest and open the pores. VapoRub is then absorbed through and stimu- 1ates the skin, taking out that tight ness and soreness in the chest.
 Ask your druggist about the 30 days trial offer.-Adv.

HIS JOB TO BANDACE
 WOUNDED HOUSES
American Boss Carpenter Putting French Villages Back on
 the Map.

It was a monotonous stretch of ugly trench, wire entanglements, gaping shell holes, accented by the blackened skeleton of shell killed forests silhouet- ted against dull, hopeless sky.
 This had once been beautiful rolling land like our own Ohio and Indiana rich in grain fields, orchards and gar dens. Now it was desolation-nothtng could live there-seemingly nothing did.
 i. We had come on some rising ground, and as we climbed we reached the brow of the slope, and of sudden it seemed that some giant had suddenly twisted the old world under our feet and we were back home, for of sud- den the sounds of life came up to us out of a hustling center of industry. That satisfying chug of an honest ham, mer head sinking willing nail into sound wood, and before us was pan orama of new building, with piles of clean lumber stacked here and there, and the framing of many new build ings. told where the wood was going. Then we heard the voice of a man who talked real United States"-tell- ing 27 other carpenters what to do out in this foreign land thousands of miles from home.
 We inquired of the boss as to who he was, and with true sense of hu- nor he said 'I am Red Cross nurse. My job is bandaging wounded houses" Putting Villages Back on Map. ''This was once French village" he went on to say, "in the center of fine sugar beet country. We are living now on the site of the sugar mill," he said, pointing to long, low barracks, which plainly had been recently built. we are working for the American Red Cross-putting villages back on the map. In four more weeks we'll be out of here and on our way to the, next | ruin, for there are many villages that need us. We go from place to place, always finding that our lumber has reached there first, so we can get right i to work, clean up and move on again" It is just like pioneering, this re- I building work of our Red Cross-only more important-more important be cause it is vital to the winning of the war that these people come back to their soil and plant new crops-for flu. ture years of war or peace.
 And so the tide of war sweeps back from whence it came, a Red Cross army follows close behind in uniforms of overalls, armed with Yankee ham mers and nails to coax back the found lings that have been brushed into sQualid helplessness in the south and east.
 They are coming back home now
 just a few days behind these carpen
 ters--back to the beet fields, the gar
 denss and the farms. Soon they will be
 feeding themselves and thousands 0.
 others.

BAKERS MAKING A
 WHITE WAR BREAD

All of the bread bakers in Bridge port are fast becoming camouhage ar- lists and it is predicted that within a short time the war bread, which heretofore has been dark in color will be white. Experiments are bringing about what has not been accomplished in bread making by others in produc- ing a white war bread. Corn and tap- ioca flour is being substituted for bar ley, which was used by nearly all of the bakers when the war bread regu- lations first went into effect. Barley four is being used in making pie crust, dark cakes and crullers.

WISH IS FATHER TO THOUGHT IN
 CASE OF QUEEN

London, May 13.-The signing of the treaty of peace between Germany and Rumania will be by no means the last action in the Rumanian tragedy, &C., cording to the view current here. The announcement by German newspapers that Queen Marie would rather abdi- cate than reign over the country un- der the German peace conditions is held to be a case of the wish probably being father to the thought. The queen was largely instrumental in bringing Rumania into the war on gthe side of the Allies and she has fought stubbornly for many months to avert peace. Even now that peace has been signed, it is predicted, she will continue to be a formidable ob- stacle in the path of the German plans for penetration"

KAUFF STARTED
 GAME AS PITCHER
Many Famous Big Show Outfelders Once Promi-
 nent As Moundsmen.

Joe Woods splendid all around playing in the Cleveland outfield last week has pretty well clinched old Smoky Joe's hold on the Cleveland payroll During the Giant-Cleveland jaunt through Texas, Louisiana and Tennessee last spring Cleveland play CTS furnished the information that Joe was acting as the clubs utility out fielder. It generally was taken with a grin, but since then Wood has proved that he is by no means joke in the outskirts. Joe always was pretty handy with his bat and play dng every day he is hitting better than when he appeared only at inter- vals in the Boston batting order as pitcher. Wood also has developed into a splendid fielder. His catches have featured many of the recent Cleveland games.
 Wood of course has little chance to win a regular berth in the Cleveland outfield, which is taken care of by such able athletes as Graney, Speaker and Roth, but Joe's work this spring has shown that he mgiht strengthen quite a few clubs.
 Yet there is nothing surprising in a pitcher turning outfelder. It is an old practice It brings to mind that some of the leading outfield hitters Of the present generation started III either the majors or the minors as pitchers. New York especially has it's full share of converted pitching outfield stars.
 Two of the greatest pitcher thump- CTS that ever wore a Chant unlIorIn opened their big league careers as pitchers, namely Mike Donlin and Cy Seymour, who romped in McGraw outfeld ten years ago. Cy's w1ldness detracted from his natural worth as q. pitcher. He had lots of stun, put ha could hit so we'll that he soor drifted to the outfield. Donlin never showed much as a pitcher, but 1T nt had any latent ability in that line Ii never was brought out, as Mike hi too hard for any pitching roles.
 Roger Bresnahan also may be Tn nMded among the Giants pitching nuthelders. Though Bresnahan dl6 his hest work for the Giants as catcher. Roger played the best par of two seasons in the Giant outheld He originally came up with the olt washington Nationals as pitcher but didn't hold on and went back t tba bushes. Later he played secon' hase on McGraw's American Leagu baltimore orioles and did some catch ing besides. He played the outf1el for the Giants when he came to NeN York and didn't really begin catch1n regularly until 1905.
 Coming down to the more recen
 -fant outnelders, fans may be sur prised to learn that Benny Kauff one iwas a. pitcher. When Arthur Irvi first picked up Benny for the Yar xees back in 1910 the young sfugge Was playing with Pogdensbury in tn Virginia Valley League. Whens Al thur first saw Benny he pdtrhed- ona
