CONTRIBUTION BOX


Referring to W. NJ Hatfie1d's local
osteopath advertisement in yesterdays
Star-Mirror, in which he states that he
has cured all of his many cases of in
flhenza without single loss by death,
| wish the public to know that influenza
of itself is not fatal disease and patients
will recover without medical treatment"
unless complications occur, and that not
single death has been recorded in this
office from influenza alone, all havesbeen
due to pneumonia or other complications
And to refresh Hatfield's memory, l
find that he gave on November 10, 1918,
a death certificate of the death of Dola
M. Bowles, of Viola, from pneumonia,
following influenza. No doubt he would
have cured this case also, but she did
not live long enough to give him chance
and, of course, no one can blame the
doctor under such adverse circum-
stances. In regard to the osteopath
friend of Chicago, who had not death
in 1873 cases of influenza and pneumonia,
this is simply miraculous. You should
let the Kaiser know about him. The
Kaiser would no doubt offer him a
partnership, seeing the one he had with
the Almighty has been dissolved without
the Kaiser's conseat.

UTILIZED FOR BARRACKS

The new wing of the Administration
building is practically complete.
1t was originally intended to be used
as a sort of barracks for the men, but
since rehabilitation has begun, it will
not be needed for that purpose. The
temporary disposition of the rooms is
to be determined by the executive COM

At present there are no funds to COM

Last week there was a return of the
influenza among the S. A. T. C. men.
There are two cases in Section B e and
three in Section A. There .Iase been no

NURSES JOY RIDE
Would Have Resulted DepIorabIy Had Not Local Motor Driver Arrived in Nick of Time.

Joseph Natarski, who operates big and powerful public service car, re- lated Tuesday morning his experi- ence while en route to Providence, via Chepachet, with a party Of young men. who left here just before mid night and reached the point on the highway where the incident occurred, just beyond Chepachet, some 45 min utes later
 The first warning MT. Natorski had of anything unusual was seeing car stopped in the highway. Upon ap-
 preaching he heard wenen's voices and knew that all was not we'll Up-
 on the approach of his machine the
 lighter cars started to make quick
 getaway, but he shot his car after it and had no difficulty in overtaking the smaller machine, whereupon the stran- gers stopped and the Natorski cars
 passengers witnessed two young wo- men stabbing at their men escorts with long hatpins. The women ap- | pealed to be rescued from their posi- tion of peril and made short work of hopping into the big public service
 car, fer the protection they felt it's passengers would give them.
 | MT. Natorski said that there were some words on all sides. but he finally drove off with the young women. who afterwards informed him that they were nurses, from Providence, and had gone out for a little ride with the
 men who afterwards made it neces- sary for the girls to fight vigorously l to defend themselves from assault MT. Natorski delivered the nurses | jI Providence. They stated that they were connected with one Of the hos pitals in the city

PROBABLE TOTAL s2,ooo
Red Cross canVassers Doing Wen, But People of Means Must co-op- crate By Giving Generously.

Another big boost was given the Red Cross fund in the Danielson dis trict Tuesday. when workers were canvassing with a system and thor oughness that heretofore has been un- known in this vicinity
 Mrs. F. H. Reach, head of the can wasting committee, officially reported the total of Mondays contributions as $127905. While no final figures were available to show to what total Tues days contributions had boosted the figures. it was felt that the S2,000 mark had been passed.
 To be up to- schedule tonight's to- tai must be at least S2500. or half the amount the district is allotted to raise. Tonight will bring the end of the first half of the six-day canvassing period and should show at least half the dis trict's apportionment of 5000 on hand.
 One little plan that was put into operation Tuesday was to form a spe- cial club of members who would con- tribute $25. Alfred L. Reed was head ing this movement and at noon had secured a number of subscriptions.
 While many are giving and giving iiberally, according to their means, canvassers are finding that some are rot doing their full duty toward the Red Cross in this drive. and it is all ready evident that the Danielson dis trict is falling behind other districts in the county in giving to the great work of mercy.
 Final appeals are being made for liberal giving and the workers hope to get some real heavy contributions before the end of the week..

MINISTER ANGERs JUDGE
Rev. Geo. D. Stanley Says "contempti-
 bIe!" at Fine For Violating Auto
 Law, and Nearly Gets Jail Sentence.

Because he characterized the pro- ceedings as eontemptible, after Judge M. H. Geissler had imposed a fine of S10 and costs of $2 upon him in the city court Tuesday morning, for hav- ing violated an automobile traffic rule by running past a standing trolley car, the court reprimanded Rev Geo. D. Stanley. pastor of the Methodist church.
 Judge Geiseler stated that he felt that if Rev. Mir. Stanley repeated such a statement that he would be obliged in upholding the dignity of the court, though not necessarily his personal dignity, to impose a sentence of 30 days in jail for contempt of court.
 Rev. MT. Stanley explained that he had not intended that his remark should be construed as the court evil dently had taken it.
 Strict enforcement of the rule rela- tive to motor vehicles running past trolley cars that are standing will be continued it was stated here Tues day.
 Already there is a noticeable i'm provement in the manner in which the rule is being obeyed.

Don't Let Soap
 Spoil Your Hair

When you wash your hair, be care- full what you use. Most, soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali, which is very injurious, as it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle.
 The best thing to use is just plain musified cocoanut oil, for this is pure and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap, and beats the most expensive soaps orr anything else all to pieces. You can get this at any drug store, and few ounces will last the whole family for months.
 Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in, about a teaspoonful is all that is required. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly. and evennly. and is soft, fresh looking, bright fluffy, wavy and easy to handle 1 Besides, it loosens and takes out every particle ow dust. dirt and dandruff.
