PLAINVILLE URGED
 10 DONATE FREELY
United War Work Committee
 Meets Good Response
NEW GOAL IS S9,4OO
People Are Urged By Committee to Make Voluntary Contributions and Not Wait to Be Askcd--PlainvilIe Briefs,

Although Plainville has already subscribed her original quota of $7,250, she has not yet reached new goal at $9,400. Now that the war is over, the need of money is much greater, as the soldiers who come provided with amusements and recre- ation. The people must not think that they have done their share until they have gone over the top and subscribed as much as possible.
 The people should come out and give their money and not wait for solicitors to come to the house. be- cause it is almost impossible for the collectors to make 8 complete house. toulouse canvass befre the campaign is closed, the directors say. The peo- pie are urged to come to the bank with their money and make it a days pay'' or better All those who give days pay and also those who. although they are not on Q, days basis, give five dollars or more, will receive an honor ribbon.
 Meeting is Postponed.
 The Nov. meeting of the Plain vile Business and Improvement as sociation has been postponed until the first Thursday in November, owing to the fact that the club rooms are being used by the Questionaire com mittee and most of our directors are busy working on the United War Work cmpaign or questionnaires
 Checking Up Pledges.
 People who enlisted in the w s. $. campaign and have pledged them selves should check up their accounts and see if they have fulfilled their pledges. The local post office has a list of names who have pledged to buy their War Savings Stamps there and in order to correct the list they advise the public to take this opportunity of checking them up. A number who have pledged are lacking in their stamps and are to attend to this mat ter at once. It is the duty of every one who has pledged himself to buy these stamps to see that he has the amount he is pledged for.
 The ladies of the Epworth league of the M. E. church will hold a supper at 6:30 tonight in the church parlors Admission will be 25 cents
 Smileage Book Sales.
 The peace celebrations are now over and Plainville is again quiet. The celebrations were of many varieties but there is one which fits the occa- sion. If there are any people who think they still ought to celebrate they might try sending smileage books to Our Boys in the army cantonments. There are still quite a few left on hand and it is most fitting that the boys be given enough recreation while they are still at camp. They have gone out to do their duty and it is up to those at home to help them. All that is necessary is to buy the books and the committee will see that

Not a Bite of
 Breakfast Until
 You Drink Water Says a glass of hot water and phosphate prevents illness
 and keeps us fit.

Just as coal, when it burns, leaves behind a, certain amount of incom bustible material in the form of ashes, so the food and drink taken day after day leaves in the alim entary canal a certain amount of indigestible ma terial, which if not completely elimina- ted from the system each day, be- comes food for the millions of bacteria which infest the bowels. From this mass of leftover waste, toxins and ptomain-like poisons are formed and sucked into the blood.
 Men and women who can't get feel ing right must begin to take inside baths. Before eating breakfast each morning drink @ glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of lime stone phosphate in 1t to wash out of the thirty feet of bowels the previous days accumulation of poisons and toxins and to keep the entire alimen- tary canal clean, pure and fresh.
 Those who are subject to sick head aches, colds, biliousness, constipation, others who wake up with bad taste, foul breath, backache, rheumatic stiff ness, or have 9, sour, gassy stomach after meals, are urged to get a quarter pound of limestone phosphate from the drug store, and begin practicing internal sanitation. This will cost very little, but is sufficient to make anyone an enthusiast on the subject.
 Remember inside bathing is more important than outside bathing, be- cause the skin pores do not absorb impurities into the blood causing poor health while the bowel pores do. Just as soap and hot water cleanses, sweetens and freshens the skin, so hot water and limestone phosphate act on the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels,

Yale and Bucknell Cut
Out Sport During War

Word came to-day from Yale that
she will, to all intents and purposes,
stop athletics during the war. and
from Bucknell that there will be no
intercollegiate football games in their
program. Professor Corwin, in
charge of athletics at Yale, says the
entire equipment. of the college, ath-
letic as well as other sports will be
placed at the disposal of the govern
ment and that any participation in
athletics must be in accordance with
the plans of the government
The equipment will, of course, be
used by the men at the university but
it is believed that the old form of
intercollegiate contests will scarcely
be held.
At Bucknell, the only football
games will be interclass affairs. A
number of football men are back, but
there will be no team to represent
the Orange and Blue this Fall. Mill
tary drill, with it's attendant drills
and exercises, will take the place of
many forms of college athletics here.
Registrar Walter S. Wilcox is unable
to say whether basketball will be
resumed this winter or not. The
large athletic field will be used as
a drill ground for the Bucknell unit
of the Student Army Training Corps.

Black Cats Quarantined; \
Cannot Play Kiwanis

The final conflict between the
Camp Colt Black Cats and the
Kiwanis team of Harrisburg to de-
termine the championship of the
diamond has been Cancelled for mill
.tary reasons, it was announced yes
terday. The team has been placed
under quarantine at Camp Colt.
The game was arranged for Nixon
Field, Gettysburg, this afternoon as
the closing of series of three
games. The Kiwanians won the first
two and were confident, they said, of
winning the. third, although the
Black Cats declared they had pep
enough to win twenty games from
the Harrisburg players.
The game, if it had been played,
would have been an important one in
baseball history since the Kiwanis
Club team topped the Industrial
League list for the past year. The
Black Cats carried away virtually
every game they played and the
winning of the Cancelled game would
have meant that the conquerers
would virtually be entitled to the
Central Pennsylvania pennant.

of confetti (tracer bullets) going BY

Hot Work
Making a quick turn, and climb
ing as he did so, he looked around
to see the cause of all the smoke
streamers. 1t was no other than
those four planes which had
thought were Spads. According to
the Frenchman, as soon as 1 jumped

was blissfully ignorant of all this,
however, having plenty to occupy
me directly ahead. The Frenchman,
being right behind me got the bene-
fit of this attack, and kept them so
busy trying to hit him-that l was
unmolested while 1 emptied my gun
at their bigger brother. Even at
that, he got off with nary bullet
in his plane, while had seven. oh,
yes, 1 knew when they hit heard
them. 1t was when I stood up on
one wing and dove to keep from
cutting off the Boche's tail. In max
ing this maneuver, one wing was
thrown right in front of the gunner
and that was the one that got pune
tured. Even above the noise of the
motor 1 could hear the ripping
sound as the bullets tore through
the fabric, and 1 wondered anXiously
as / whirled out of range whether
my tank was hit.
The Damaged Plane
Not taking any chances of my
motor stopping, switched the lever
into the gravity feed tank, but as
the air pressure continued to hold
on the other tank / soon switched
it back. When 1 arrived at camp
discovered the reason my one gun
had stuck. The connection between
the gun and the motor had been shot
off. The other damage consisted of
five holes in the upper wing-none
very close to me, but making it nee
essary to put on a new wing, and
one in a lower wing. A little later
it was discovered that half my
Becky" had been shot away by an
explosive bullet.
Fortunately, 1 made a good land
ing, and not having much strain on
her she did not break. Yea, boy!
Dad, that guardian angel might have
had another cold sweat but he sure
did his duty well, for nary a bullet
touched me. Just the same, a lieu
tenant who sometimes commands the
escadrille led me aside and i'm
pressed on the fact of being more
careful, and not dive into fight in
such a headlong fashion. To hear
him talk, one would think I was
real valuable, which is rather an
amusing thought when one consid-
ers my Hun score stands at zero.
Perhaps we got that Boche, how
ever, because he certainly was div
ing steeply when I let up, and the
Frenchman started in. I know
bunch of my bullets went home, for
saw them enter the body of the
machine where the pilot and OBJ
server were. Here's hoping, anyway.
Sometimes, though, it takes quite
while to get confirmation, so don't
expect to hear anything for several
days.

winning of the worlds war. Haunts
and environments, SO useful for rest

extent by the march of civilization.
1t is now necessary to give absolute
protection to wild birds during their
mating and breeding period. Repro
duction is impossible If birds are kill
ed so the cessation of spring shooting
must be observed. Both the nation
and states should establish game
parks, preserve natural and create
artificial lakes, where game and fish
may be protected and propogated as

in the United States should stock his
farm with game birls; they are great
destroyers of noxious insects. pre-

Game will prove an asset and every
farm should be a private preserve.

Football to Thrive at
Pitt Under Warner

Unlike many other big colleges
the football situation at Pitt is
very bright. Glenn Warner ar
rived at Pittsburgh to-day from
his home at Springville, N. Y. and
observed: 81 do not believe the
government will interfere with
football, so long as it is reason
ably conducted. Our army heads
recognize the good that football
training does. 1t is the finest kind
of work for prospective soldiers,
and 1 believe the government will
be strong for it, instead of offer
ing any opposition"
1t is probable that Warner will
next week be in charge of the
largest squad he has ever had
under him at Pitt. The Panther
football authorities originally fig
ured on a preliminary squad of
between 80 and 40 men, and cal
culated that this number might be
doubled after the school actually
"OPENS its doors on September 80.
But since this estimate was
made, word has been received
from a number of students and
prospective students who have
signified their intention of report
ing next week, and the chances
are that when Warner gives his
first orders Monday afternoon they
will be listened to by no fewer
than half a hundred men.
Unless something unforeseen oc-
ours, the coaches will have a fine
lot of talent to work with and
develop. There will not be
dearth of candidates for a single
position. From the known quality
of the men who are coming out,
1t is believed that Warner will
soon whip into shape a first-string
eleven of decided class, and that
he will have 1t going in good form
when the date of the opening
game of the season with the Great
Lakes Naval Training station
team rolls around on Saturday,
