period America was still neutral.
We cannot. in this matter, get
away from the fact that Great
Britain adhered strictly to the
ultimate destination" theory,
and that theory was promulgated
and insisted upon by the United
States of America during our
Civil War.
No doubt everyone will re-
member that soon after the Civ
il War had begunssthe American
government declared a blockad-
of the Southern States, announce
ing that our warships would
seize and confiscate all ships of
foreign nations seeking to trade
with the South. In due time,
private corporations in England
to send shipments of arms and
ammunition to the British Island
of Jamaica, intending. of course.
to later slip them over to Amer
lea. Under orders from Mr..
Lincoln, American warships
stopped these vessels en- route to
Jamaica and confiscated the car
goes, and later our prize courts
upheld the seizures on the
ground that the ultimate des.
tination" of the ships was plain,
and we notified Great Britain
that we would fight rather than
give up the point, and Great
Britain yielded:
Great Britain adopted this the
DRY in 1914, 1915 and 1916 with
American ships carrying cargoes
consigned to Holland and Sweden
but manifestly intended for Ger
many. We do not think any
criticisms of that policy will
stand, least of all from America.

CLUB GIRLS HAVE MADE
EXCELLENT RECORDS

The end of the season has come for
the girls canning clubs. and their a.
nal reports and stories of their sum
mer'B work are now being sent in.
These are the government reports,
and are the more important part OF
the summers work. On account of
the influenza quarantine. no meetings
have been held for several weeks.
With reports In from only four out of
the ten clubs in the county, the
amount of canning bids fair to far
exceed the estimates which had been
made. The amounts from the four
clubs which have reported aggregate
about S 500 quarts Of fruit. yegeta-
bles.. pickles. jelly and jam.
As soon as the quarantine permits
and schools are in session again the
winter clubs for both boys and girls
will be organized. One Of the princi-
pal fall projects is to be 3 large cali
club. This work win be carried on In
connection with the Farm Bureau eat.
tie project for the adults. and IL Il
expected that many boys will take ad
vantage of this most interesting club
Other phases of the winter work vii
be cooking and sewing for the girl
and handicraft for the boys.

FLU" STILL PREVAILS;
TWO MORE DEATHS

The influenza situation in the city
is about the same as 1t was q week
ago. While there are probably a
few more cases than there we're at
this time last week, most OF the vic
Tins have it In mild form. The
health officers are doing everything
possible to pregent its spread and it
is believed that by another week the
situation will be much improved.
However, this depends to large ex-
tent upon the people themselves. IL
they will continue to observe closely
the board OF health rules. IL will ma
terially aid In stamping ont the dis
ease. We believe that everybody has
come to fully realize that it is a
matter that is not to be treaed lightly,
and are gladly submitting to all rules
In an effort to stamp out the disease.
There are few cases In the county
outside OF Montpelier but ali victims
were yesterday reported as getting
along nicely.
So far we believe that there have
heen only three deaths from the dis
ease-Mrs. John A. Bagley, Ezra We're
Phelps and Fred A. Curing.
We're Phelps. as he was familiarly
known. died at s O'Clock last Monday

SUGAR FOR CANNING

Enclosed you will find form certificate to be used by all re- tail merchants in your county for the sale of sugar for canning purposes only.
 Please see that your mer- chants order a supply of these certificates immediately. They will not be permitted sugar for canning unless they have these certificates.
 I am instructed by the United States Food Administration off cials at Washington to use every precaution to conserve our sup ply of sugar. When not pur- chased for canning purposes, sugar must not be sold in quan- tity more than five pounds for city trade and ten pounds for country trade.
 The person who buys sugar under the pretext of canning and makes false statement in this re- spect to get a larger amount of sugar than otherwise entitled to is a traitor to the government. If you find cases of this nature you should arrest such guilty parties on the charge of hoard ing. They will be subject to severe penalty.
 am depending on the loyalty and the patriotism of the people of the state. which has never yet been questioned, and which has never failed to comply faithfully with these sugar regulations. If the good housewife wants sugar for canning, she is now entitled to it by filling out one of the en- closed certificates the merchants will hgve on hand. Promptness in merchants getting out these certificates will be greatly ap- preciated.
