factors and friends Several hundred
miles of beautiful, durable roads have
been built; tunnels, bridges and rail-
ways have been constructed. Nine
piers have been erected in VaIona
harbor and eight in Santa Quaranta.
Barracks, and hospitals containing
1000 beds, have been established. In
order to have the practice of burying
the dead in the centre of the villages
discontinued, cemeteries have been
created in , the outskirts of villages
and towns. Telegraphic, telephone
and wirelsss stations have been estab-
dshed and the Italians are now en-
gaging in retaining the marshy zone
surrounding Valona and comprising
about 5000 acres.
THE Abbanians are great admirers
of America" added General Scriven,
although only recently have they be-
gun to emigrate there"
In this connection, General Scriven
quoted one of the leading Albanians,
a man who has been to America, as
saying to him:
THE invasion of Albania by the
Balkan States, accompanied by har-
rowing atrocities on unarmed popuia-
! ton, thousands of shepherds and far
mers being slaughtered, towns and
villages destroyed, farms burnes,
f1ocks devastated and stolen, and
hundreds of thousands of refugees
flocking into Valona half starved and
perishing from hunger and exposure,
have caused the beginning of emigra-
ton to the United States. The aver
age American is probably unaware
that 10000 Albanians have gone to the
United States since the beginning OF
the war"
Concluding, General Scriven said:
THE occupation of Albania by Ita1-
| ian troops has proved the salvation OF
the remaining AIbanians and the re-
| NiVal of the Albanian nation >,

FISHING FLEETS
SUNK BY SUB

London, June 3.---Twe1ve of a fleet
of 80 or 40 fishing vessels which left
Irish ports on the night of May 30
were sunk by a German submarine,
says a Belfast dispatch to the Daily
Telegraph. The submarine suddenly
appeared in the midst of the feet,
and ordered the fishermen to take to
the boats and row ashore. It then
sank the vessels by Smelling them.
+ The fishermen say the submarine
was interruptedein it's work and sub
merged, which probably prevented de-
structfon of the entire fleet. The fish
ermen lost all their gear, but there
was no loss of life.

No More Exemptions Likely;
New Request to Food Stores

Washington, Jan. p. = ENemp-
tions to the fuel conservation order,
it was indicated again tdoay, will
not be increased. request by GER
tain department stores that they be
permitted to remain open on Monday
and operate only seven hours for sin
days week was refused.
DR.. Garfield took occasion today
to denounce proprietors of manufac-
turing plants who have announced
that they will work overtime five
days a week to make up the time
lost Mondays. That, he said, woulu
be a plain evasion of the order.
A new ruling regarding the sale o1
food on Mondays was made tonight.
In the original order all food stores
were directed to close at noon, bu,
last night they were exempted en-
tirely from operation of tn eregula-
tions. Tonight the following tele-
gram was sent to State Fuel Admin
istrators in respect to these stores:
"All wholesale and retail stores
selling food are urged both by the
Food and Fuel Administrations, OIL
patriotic grounds, to close at nooL
Mondays, except that wherever nee
essary distribution of food to the
people is endangered by closing fooo
stores are at liberty to remain opel
all day. The necessity for remain
ing open is to be determined by the
local Food Administrator who is to
notify the local Fuel Administra-
tor"

The Battle Royal

The submission of the federal
amendment is a very serious thing;
it brings the country to the thres-
nolL of national prohibition-we are
soon to have a saloonless land. But,
serious as the situation is, the booze
makers are adding touch of comedy
% it-they have seized upon the doc
.rine of States rights, and are car
rying it as a sort of Ark of the
Covenant" What a sight--the mas
.er of the vat and the manipulation
of the still acting as the self-appoin-
Ted custodians of the sacred symbols
Of the commonwealth, while the
subsidized newspaper joins the bar
oum, the bloat, and sots in gutteral
applause.
And these representatives of the
drink traffic are the very people who
nave for a generation trampled upon
he rights of every unit, large and
small, that has opposed the saloon.
they now seek refuge in the State,
out it is only j few years ago that
they opposed Con the ground that it
was unconstitutionaD the Webb
Kenyon law which made it possible
ior each State to control the sale and
use of liquor within its borders.
1t was this same crowd that glori
fed the county unit in order to de-
feat State prohibition in Texas and
Kentucky-The same crowd that, ,un-
der fraudulent plea for home rule,
urged town or township option as
ana and Michigan-the same crowd
hot ont L.,
New Jersey and Pennsylvania.
They are as dishonest in their pre-
tended solicitude for States rights
today as they were when they cham
pioned smaller units-their only real
solicitude is for themselves and for
the money they make out of their
business.
But they are no longer able to de-
ceive-their methods have been eX-
posed.
The southern democrats, the spe-
cial champions of States rights, led
the fight for submission; Virginia,
Tennessee, Georgia, Mississippi, Flor
ida and Arkansas voted Solidly for
More than two-thirdS OF
the democrats in congress voted i'll
the affirmation, as did still larger
peffeefhtage-eff the southern demo-
Gratis in both senate and house. OPP
position to national prohibition is
strongest where the States rights
doctrine is weakest, and weakest
where that doctrine is strongest-in
other words, opposition to prohibi-
lion is, as a rule, in proportion to
the number of breweries and distil-
Ieries, not in proportion to attach
ment to the rights of the States.
Those who most appreciate the
States part in our governmental ma
chinery are least willing to allow the
honorable doctrine of States rights
to be used to shield the saloon from
the rising wrath of the people.

answer to this treatment very well.
Always darn woolen materials
with ravelings OF the material if pos
sible, saving pieces from your dress
making for this purpose or ripping 6
a seam for the ravelings.
Horsehair is useful in mending
boys heavy tweed suits. 1t should
be worked in and out of the mater
ial. .ravelings being used as well, if
they can be found.
When replacing a button on a
mans suit leave a long stem" of
thread, so that the buttonhole will
slip easily over it. A disk of card
board with a hole cut in the center
is a useful thing to have in the mend
ing basket, as it may be slipped be-
tween the button and the garment
during the stitching-on process, and
keeps them wide enough apart to
provide the stem" Then it must
be wound.

NOTICE
Water Consumers

Water rents for quarter ending Ap-
ril first are now due and payable,
and if not paid before Feb. 1st, will
be in arrears.
We hope our customers will come
forward and pay their, rent promptly,
as we need the money badly.
1t cost us more than twice as much
to pump water in 1917 as it did in
1916, and Notwithstanding the fact
that we have cut out all dividends to
stockholders, we are finding It very
hard to collect money enough to meet
current expenses.
We are also finding that it is TAX
ing much more water than usual to
supply the town, and we suppose it
is owing to the fact that so many of
the people leave their spigots open
to keep from freezing, but we hope
they will discontinue this practice,
as it takes fuel to pump water, and
fuel is something We must conserve,
as the time may come when we will
not be able to get coal at any price.
Please call at the Office. 122 High
street, and pay bill promptly.

Mending Tips

Before the war, when | was an eX-
travagant, needless woman, | thou
ght that mending wasn't worth
while. Now l have carefully studied
household expenditure and found
that it pays me to make fine art OF
my weekly tackling of the mending
basket, says a writer in an exchange.
Moth holes IN garments can be
disguised by scraping the fuzz or lint
from the material, filling the hole
with this and backing it with piece
of rubber cement.
Strengthen d bias tear by darning
it first in the direction of the warp,
Qengthwise) and then slantwise
across the woof (the woof runs cross
wise.)
Some tears can be mended by max
ing a very shallow buttonhole all
around the torn edges and then cat
ching this together with overand-
over stitches. This is a good meth
cd for gloves.
A hole can often be filled better
with crochet stitches than darns.

Proceedings Worthy
of Prussian Tactics

When the enemy aliens who have
been collected recently on Ellis Is
land were moved across the bay Sat
urday, as the first stage of their
journey to the internment camp in
the South where they are to remain
for the duration of the war, they
took pains to prove how well they
deserved incarceration as alien enc
mics. They did more. They made
as much harder and embarrassing as
they could the position in this coun-
try both of all loyal American citi-
Zens of German descent and of all
unnaturalized Germans here who are
trying to deserve, by scrupulous OBJ
serNance of our laws, the kindness
and generosity with which our Gov
ernment has treated them.
This the travellers in question did
by singing loudly their national an
them and by making insulting dem
onstrations of contempt as they pass
ed the Statue of Liberty.
If these men had been prisoners of
war, such conduct would have been
highly injudicious, but it could have
been excused, as coming from class
in a state of mind not conducive to
Ildull ll6StdllOuS Ol u6IlCdlS COuI IGSy
toward their captors. 1t might even
have won something of admiration as
a bold defiance of national foes and
of such resentment as it might eX-
cite. But the prisoners were not
SOldierS-they were men who had al
ready violated obligations which all
men of honor recognize as binding,
and for that they had been condemn
ed to undergo a punishment that by
no stretch of definition could be less
severe than the punishment which
surely would be inflicted in their own
country on Americans who mad been
guilty of like grave offenses against
the German Government and people.
There was, therefore, nothing he
role in what they did. 1t was at best
the worst of mannerS-true PruSSian
manners-and it was about as far as
possible from justifying German
claims to intelligence and efficiency.
And it should anger most, as it in
jured most, the German-American
upon whom, inevitably, will be i'm
posed by his neighbors the task of
explaining why Germans behaved so
stupidity and boorishly
