action for equitable relief. The claim
set forth by plaintiff lis that certain
lands in Guilford township and In

the properties upon P. j. Baker paying
the sum of $26685 to Evans accord
ing to the tenor of two promissory

consideration of one dollar, with full
knowledge, it is claimed, of the con-
tract entered into with Baker and the
latter's fulfillment of his part. 1t is
set forth by plaintiff that the transfer
bv Evans to Woods was an attempt to
cheat P. ]. Baker, who at the time

Bates COLLEGE

Bates college will in all proba bility be
seriously effected by the coal shortage
Unless immediate relief is shortly forth
coming. The faculty at a recent meeting
discussed the situation. and are seriously
considering closing college for an extra
week during the spring vacation. Several
Of the other Maine colleges, as we'll as
some OF the larger institutions, prepared
for this shortage by allowing an extra
weeks vacation. Owing to the tarlness
OF the faculty to realize the gravity OF
the situation, Bates was unable to at
once notify the students Of the prolonged
vacation, and therefore deemed it wise
to postpone the closing of college till just
before the Easter recess.
The annual day of prayer for colleges
will be observed as usual this year. jan
81 has been set aside to prayer and 4
speaker will address the entire college
Bates has been fortunate enough to Sc
cure the presence of Rev Raymond cal
kins from the Congregational pastorate
at Cambridge, Mass. and for some time
pastor of the Congregational church at
Portland.

Soldiers Eat Too Much

nat Napoleon said about the re'a
tlon OF soldiers rations to their ahi,i+,
to fight has been paraphrased hv ~,
Harvey w. Wiley in an article o.,
pearing IN Good Housekeeping for NO
venlber.
Says the food specialist: 1.-The tbra.
guiding principles of military n,ltri.
ton are the following: The food MUG,
be ample in quantity; ii must be ex.
cellent in quality: it must be free n,
all adulteration and debasement.
THE total weight OF the rar-;sor
army ration and this is the same a,
the marine corps-is 68.7 ounces a asv
This includes coffees, salt, baking now
der. vinegar. flavoring extracts. etc
The total weight of the navy ration
including condimentais, is 100 ouncae
a day. This does not include any
water or other beverage drunk durir,
the day or used at meals. In otber
words. the army ration, excluding bev-
erages. is 4.a pounds and the navy ra :
ton, excluding beverages, is six
pounds q day.
The most striking feature of the
army and navy ration is the great ex-
cess Of food beyond the physical re-
quireemnts Of the soldier or sailor
Persons who are overfed are threat
ened with disaster almost to the extent
of those who are underfed. I am fslly
convinced that our soldiers would be
better off II one third Of the food e :
