Ramsey Rannar County.

Ramsey county probably is the
banner county in the state, accord
ding to reports at headquarters.
With a population of 1901, the
county raised $21.846 in the first
drive, and 5,346.S2 in the drive just
closed. The total is less than $4,000
of the county's quota for four COM
plete war drives. .
The showing Of Towner county,
F. G. Robson, Cando, county drive
chairman, is also interesting. Mr..
Robson suggested a, quota of $12,-
900, but it was cut down to SO, 600. His
final report was for S12.9O3.69.
Mcintosh county, populated almost
entirely by persons Of German par
entage or descent, oversubscribed it's
quota of $500 by 1853. The county
drive was made under very discours
aging weather conditions. M. J.
Ruemmele, Ashley, was county drive
chairman.

DISAPPROvES OF
Chain PLAN FOR
WAR STAMP SALE

Hartford, Feb. 14-An emphatic
stamp of disapproval has been placed
by Howell Cheney, state director of
the National War Savings Committee,
on the endless chain" schemes which
are now entering Connecticut from
other states for the disposal of thrift
stamps and war savings certificates.
Mr.. Cheney in a statement issued
today that he did not regard this
method for the sale of stamps legiti-
mate,/and that he would do all in his
power to discourage the sale of
stamps by this plan. Mr.. Cheney will
call upon his entire organization
throughout the state in an effort to
stop the numerous chains which
are coming into Connecticut from
other states. can endless chain
scheme is a bad proposition at all
times; it is especially bad as a means
of selling government securities, "
said Mr.. Cheney.

UNIQUE EXHIBIT
rs DISPLAYED IN
READ co. WINDOW
Real Trench Is Constructed,
With Barbed Wire and
Action Setting

1t is the little Thrift Stamp which
occupies the mind this week. Every
body is talking and thinking stamps.
Numerous are the suggestions and
schemes to prompt the ready pur-
chase of stamps, when it does seem
that real American ought not to .e
hounded into doing what should be
his inestimable pleasure and privilege.
Doubtless it is that we are not quite
nation only a melting pot. 1t re-
NAMED for the oldest and most con-
sentative mercantile house in the city
to offer a very original exhibit in one
of their front windows, which is sup
posed to invite the purchase of War
Stamps.
There are two sections to this win
dow. In one is a booth where stamps
are offered for sale and this is sur
rounded by numerous painted signs
with requests to passers-by to serve
their country in the only way possible
for most Bridgeporters; that is, to
buy as generally as possible, thereby
assisting the government.
The other section shows an imita-
| ton of trench. This is arranged
very cleverly with coils of barbed wire
| behind which is a breastwork of earth
| in which stand dummy figures of SOL
diers of the allied nations. AS COM
mon as barbed wire is along the edges
| of American fields, it becomes a
deadly thing when any living being is
| caught in it To be attached firmly
I on the spikes of this cruel stuff, with
| the bullets humming overhead, to be
| helpless in the horror of darkness, or
the heat of the sun, is something that
| few of US can thoroughly appreciate
| If the purchase of Thrift Stamps
can shorten this horrible struggle and
precipitate the end of an autocratic
dynasty, for the sake of all that is
American, let US create a corner in
Thrift Stamps.
See! there's the jagged barbed wire
straight ahead,
And there's the trench-you'H get
| there anyhow.
Your puttee catches on a strand OF
wire,
And down you go; perhaps it saves
your life,
For over sandbag rims you see 'em
fire,
Crop-headed chaps, their eyes ablaze
with strife.
You crawl. you cover; then once
again you plunge.
With all your comrades. roaring a
your heels
Have at 'em lads! You stab, yor
jab, you lunge;
A blaze of glory, then the red world
reels.
A crash of triumph, then-you'rt
! faint a bit
That cursed puttee!'
By special arrangement with thu
fuel administration, at the request O.
members of the Bridgeport War Blu
! reau, this window is lighted even
ings.

CHENEY EXPLAINS.
CONFUSING ORDER
ON W.S.S. STAMPS

Hartford, Feb. 14-Because of
ruling announced by the Federal Re
serve Bank to the effect that Thrift
Stamps would cease to become an
obligation of the government on De-
cember 81, 1918, many persons have
been confused into thinking that any
Thrift Stamps they had on hand at
the close of the year would be value
less.
Howell Cheney, state director for
Connecticut of the war savings cam
paign, has secured from the Federal
Reserve Bank information to the ef-
feet that Treasury Department officials
at Washington have ruled that thrift
stamps outstanding in the hands Of
purchasers either at the time the en-
tire issue of War Savings Stamps IS
sold, or on December, 1918, will either
be accepted in exchange for War Saw
ings Stamps of another series, or pro-
vision made for cash redemption.'

BRAKES FAILING
TROLLEY CARS IN
REAR END SMASH

A rear-end collision between two
cars of the Connecticut Company oc-
CURED yesterday afternoon at Main
and Grand streets, endangering the
lives of many of the passengers on
both cars. The only thing that avert
ed a serious accident was the fact
that the rear car was travelling
slowly when the crash came.
The motorman of the rear car
stated that his brakes failed to work.
He escaped injury to himself only by
the smallest margin by throwing
himself inside his car.
Ambulances were at oncer ushed
to the scene but DR.. Pasuth of the
Emergency hospital found that the
only injury to the passengers or crew
was sustained by Miss May Cham
bers. colored, of 40 Gregory street,
who suffered from slight abrasions
and bruises.
Mrs. MILDLY Memo, Sc, of SO Com
mercial street, became hysterical
when told her little baby girl had
been injured, but recovered when
the child was found among the crowd
of spectators.

Five ways of saving fuel in heat
ing houses are recommended in a
report just made by the Bureau of
Mines, Department of the Interior.
Van H Manning, Director of the Bu-
reu, estimates that there are about
20 100000 homes in this country and
that each by the use of ordinary in
teIligence and care can save a ton
year.
The report suggests that the tenn
perature of houses be kept from b
to 10 degrees below what is now GUS
tomary. From Is to 20 per cent. of
the fuel may be saved by heating the
house only to from 81 to 68 degrees,
and there will be no danger to health.
Coal may also be saved by heating
fewer rooms, and not starting the
furnace too soon in the autumn nor
keeping it burning too long in the
spring.

FRANCE EXPECTING
BIG WHEAT CROP

Paris, Feb. 1.-The condition of
winter wheat in the departments of
France that give the largest yields is
reported by an expert who has just
finished a tour of inspection to justify
fully the most optimistic hopes for the
1918 crop. Nowhere did the frost do
any damage and the prospects are good
for a greater crop per acre than in
any year since 1914.
Preparations for spring seeding are
well under way, and it is probable
that the acreage will exceed that of
last spring by nearly one million
There is an equal increase in the
acreage of winter wheat over 1917.

Compromise Reached
In Suit Over Well

Settlement out of court was reached
yesterday in the appeal of William
F., and Helen A. Rorke from the
probate of the will made by their
aunt, Mrs. Mary A. Brown, proprie-
tor of Browns Universal Hat shop.
The jury had been impanelled and the
case explained to the jury previous to
the noon recess. During the recess
attorneys for both interests reached
an agreement and the case was with
drawn, court adjourning until this
morning.
The appeal was from the disposition
of the $3,5 estate of Mrs. Brown. In
a will, executed a few days before her
death last August, Mrs. Brown nam
ed as the residuary legatees William
F. Billeau, a nephew of her husband,
and Attorney James H. O'Rourke,
who had for years been her legal ad-
wiser. The. niece and nephew were
not mentioned in the will. They ap-
pealed upon the ground Mrs. Brown
weak and i'll at the time the will was
executed and had been unduly influ-
enced by O'Rourke. The terms of
settlement were not disclosed.

Says corns stop hurting, then
lift right off without =.
one bit of pain

Hospital records show that every
time you cut corn you invite lock-
jaw or blood poison. which is need
less, says a Cincinnati authority, who
tells you that a quarter ounce of a
drug called freezone costs but a few
cents at any drug store but is suffi-
cient to rid ones feet of every hard
or soft corn or callus without even
one little twinge of pain.
You simply apply few drops of
this freezone on a tender, aching corn
and the soreness is instantly relieved.
Shortly the entire corn can be lifted
out, root and all, with your fingers.
This drug is sticky but dries at
once and is claimed to just shrivel up
any corn without inf1aming or even
irritating the surrounding tissue or
skin.
If your wife wears high heels she
will be glad to know of this,-Adv.

of them will only be lent for short
