PAST FEW DAYS
One Townshend Man Gets Fourth Deer
This Season-All Cases Found to Be
Within the Law-Coon Caught in
Hencoop in West Townshend.

Reports received by County Fish and
Game Warden f. H. Metealf of Brattle-
boro show that up to the present time 33
deer have been killed in Windham county
this season while doing damage to crops.
This does not include deer found dead
this week by A. Fl. Wheeler of West
Townshend
Some of these deer have done much
| damage while in other instances the dam
| age has been inconsiderable. In few
| cases there has been reason to suspect
that desire for venison has gone hand
in hand with the wish to stop damage to
| field crops, but in each case the person
killing the deer has complied with at
least the letter of the law, and the coun-
ty warden has issued certificate to show
that the shooting was done legally.
County Warden Metcalf returned yes
terday afternoon from a trip up the
West River valley investigating reports
of the shooting of deer. These are busy
days for the county warden. On the
10th and 18th he put in Is hours of work
each day. On the llth he travelled l39
miles.

by game other than deer.

0UEENIN WRITES
FROM HOSPITAL
Has Recovered From Wounds But
Is Pretty Weak

The following letter received by a
friend in this city from Raymond j.
Queenan, who is a member of Com
pany D., 1872, U, S, Infantry:
Nov. 2, 1918.
Dear Pal:
well, old top, I am in the hos
pital again but am O. K. except for
the fact that I am still pretty weak.
I happened to near to where F'ritzie
desided to explode one Of his Iron
Mills" None of the Junk hit me but
the conclusion pitched me into a
trench. I landed on my chin and my
knees hit the top of the ditch,
wrenching my back and almost knock
ing the life out of me. I was pretty
Marty worn out befort that, so the
M. D. tagged me and sent me to the
hospital to recuperate. There are
several more boys from Company f.
here with me. That sure was an awful
sector we held. We were in the front
trenches for IL long, long days and
nights and had no trenches or dug
outs, nothing but woods. The Dutch
| men kept shooting up the woods with
'beaucoup' (many) machine guns and
artillery all the time. All a fellow
did was just simply live from one min
| that place when I see you.
This present place is one of the
most famous health resorts in Eu-
rope. People come from all over the
world to. take the baths and drink
from the fountains. I am living in a
hotel which was taken over and made
a part Of Base Hospital No. 1. T have
| had two of those wonderful baths in
| the few days I have been here and
| they sure are wonderful. I also have
| a few drinks of the water every day.
| It's free and they say it is good for
| you SO you may know that I don't
| pass up anthing like that. You get
| the same water or at least an inita-
| ton of it with ice cream back in the
| States.
| 1.-The American Red Cross has a
wonderful place here. 1t is just like
| a big New York club. We are al
| lowed out every day from / until z
| p. m. and during these stray hours the
| Red Cross place is packed. They have
| a large movie theater with real Amer
| lean pictures and three shows a day.
| well, old pal. it looks more like
| 'fnis de geurre' (the end of the war;
| every day and L expect to see you be-
| fore many months.

DRINK A GLASS
or REAL HOT WATER
BEFORE BREAKFAST.
Says we will both look and feel
clean, sweet and fresh
and avoid illness.

Sanitary science has of late made
rapid strides with results that are of
untold blessing to humanity. The lat
est application of it's untiring research
is the recommendation that it is as
necessary to attend to internal santa
ton of the drainage system Of the hui
man body as it is to the drains of the
house.
Those of us who are accustomed to
feel dull and heavy when we arise,
splitting headache ,stuffy from a cold,
foul tongue, nasty BREATH acid stom-
ach, can, instead, feel as fresh as a
daisy by opening the sluices Of the sys-
tenn each morning and flushing out the
whole of the internal poisonous stag
nant matter.
Everyone, whether ailing, sick or
we'll, should, each morning before
breakfast, drink q glass of real hot
water with teaspoonful of limestone
phosphate in it to wash from the
stomach, liver and bowels the pre-
vious days indigestible waste, sour
bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleans
ing, sweetening and purifying the en-
tire aim entary canal before putting
more food into the stomach. The &C
ton of hot water and linn estone phos-
pfldLe Oh .tu oIHpty StolIlr1NIl 10 "OAA-
derfully invigorating. 1t cleans out
all the sour lamentations, gases,
waste and acidity and gives one a
splendid appetite for breakfast.
While you are enjoying your break
fast the phosphated hot water is
quietly extracting a large volume of
water from the blood and getting
ready for a thorough flushing of
all the inside organs
The millions of people who are
bothered with constipation, bilious
spells, stomach trouble, rheumatic
stiffness; others who have a sallaw
skins, blood disorders and sicllly COM
plexions are urged to get a quarter
pound of limestone phosphate from
the drug store. This will cost very
little but is sufficient to make any
one a pronounced crank on the sub
ject of internal sanitation.

JEWS WILL CELEBRATE
Thanksgiving Hanulxah Enterta in
nent Will Be Held in Turner Hall
Tomorrow Evening.

A Victory Thanksgiving Hanuka.h
entertainment and dance will be given
under the auspices Of the Beth Ell
Ladies' Auxiliary this evening at s
p. m. in Turner hall Arch street. A
four act play entitled, For Liberty
will be presented by the children of
the Sunday school. The play is based
on the story of the Maccabean revo-
luton against the Prussianism of
JAntiochus Epiphanes, King of Sydia,
in the year 165 B. c.. There will be
violin solos by Prof. Benjamin Shube,
and vocal selections by Miss Anna
Lipman, accompanied by Miss Cher
noff. Miss Sherman will give several
dramatic readings. Dancing will fol-
low the entertainment
The Jewish festival of Hanukah
which will be- ushered in Thursd ay
evening with the lighting of the first
candle will last for eight days. The
story of Hanukah though dating back
nearly 2100 years is in its essence
the same as the dark but hopeful
years 1914-181S of the present era.
There is nothing new, not even the
infamy Of Prussianism. Both Anti
ochus, the autocratic monarch of an
cient Syria, and the modern rnislead-
ers of Prussia preach the same en-
forcement of their kuItur through
their military aggression. The inter
esting story of the invasion of the
little home land Of the Jews, Judea,
the little Belgium which lay between
invading Syria and Egypt with the
atrocities on defenceless women and
children will be told by Rabbi Reu-
ben Kaufman. All men in uniform are
cordially invited to attend.
