Send Money Instead Of Merchandise

The original order that the ap-
proval of regimental or higher COM
mander was necessary before pack
ages might be sent to members Of
the expeditionary forces has been
modified so officers with the rank of
major and higher may approve ship
ments. The approval of a company
commander is not sufficient.
The question of the shipment OF
parcels to France first came to the
attention of the war department when
the commanding general of the ex-
peditionary forces cabled that con-
gestion of such articles had reached
such a point that French railroads
were unable to handle the load. A
board appointed by the secretary OF
war and the postmaster general ex-
amined 5000 sacks of parcelpost
mail, and found that the articles be-
ing sent, not only in the main, were
absolutely unnecessary, but undesir-
able. The investigation showed that
the amount of such mail had reached
total of 100000 pounds a week,
and was steadily increasing.
Relatives and friends, accordingto
a recent statement by the war de-
partment, will find they often can do
a greater service to soldiers by send
ing them money for the purchase OF
articles in France than by forwarding
the articles. Tobacco is now being
supplied as part of the army rations,
and merchandise of nearly all kinds
may now be purchased in France
through the high general store estab-
lished by the quartermaster corps at
lower prices than charged by retail
ers here.

The club lists for the primary

learned the number enrolled is con-
siderably short of the enrolment of
two years ago. At Bamberg about
$40 have been enrolled, against ov-
er 400 two years ago. The other
clubs have not sent in their club lists

Silas Deane, the first diplomatic
agent of the United States, was born
at GrOtOn, Mass, close to 200 years
ago. He became merchant and waG
delegate to the first Continental c0ni
gress. In the spring of 1776 he was
sent to France as a secret diplomatio(
agent. He posed as a merchant from
Bermuda. and upon his arrival u
Paris sought an interview with Count
de Vergennes. the Minister Of Foreisn
A6aires, who refused to receive him.
Dea9e was reduced to the direst pew
erty and was elected by his landlady.
Subsequent American ambassadofl
have complained Of the lack Of suit

duced to a point where he had to &C.
ceot poor lodgings from q sympa.

given an audience with vergennes and
began the diplomatic relations which
eventually resulted In the French al.
lance. In 1777 Deane was recalled.

Origin Of Blizzard.

Blizzard is undoubtedly a word of
American origin. but it is much older
than suggested. In Amersham (Eng.)
churchyard today there is tomb OF
the BLIZZARD family and people of that
name still reside In the village of Chal-
font st. Giles. A man Of this name ac-
companied William Penn to the new
world. This BLIZZARD, 1t is said, devei.
oped very unsociable habits and set.
lied far away from his fellows in the
remote Northwest. Now a northwest
ern snowstorm is the most disagreeable
thing there is about the whole climate,
and Mr.. BLIZZARD. being so unpleasant q
person to his neighbors, his name was
adopted to describe the objectionable
type Of weather which blew from his
direction.
