MEN NEEDED IN AIR SERVICE.
Men Wanted for Immediate Duty Over
seas,

In order that the great number of men
needed in the air service for immediate
duty overseas and in this country may
be obtained within the next few days,
the army air service has opened TO all
men between the ages of is and So, the
only stipulation being that those be-
tween the ages of 81 and 81 be "limitea
service" stenographers.
Men are needed in every department.
Some will be given immediate overseas
duty and Others win be sent to the i'm
mense air service training schools in this
country, where they will receive special
training in whatever their past expe-
rience has fitted them. There is the
greatest opportunity for immediate adj
vancement in the air service, four ffths
of the men in an air service squadron
being non commissioned officers. This is
because of the fact that practically all
men in squadron are on duty which re-
quires great skill and of great respon-
sibility. Some of these non commits
stoned officers receive as high as $500
per month, exclusive of all living ex-
penses. In the event that men have de-
pendents the government will make a
monthly allotment to them.
All men in the New England district
must appear in person before the air
service trade test board, 755 Boylston
street, Boston, where they will be exam
ined and if accepted will be designated
for immediate duty with a flying force
or at an air service training school.

PREPARING GERMANS
FOR TURKEYS COLLAPSE
German Newspapers on Tuesday Re
marked That Far-Reaching Events
Were Indicated in News from
Constantinople

Amsterdam, Wednesday, Oct. l6.--Ger
man newspapers are preparing the public
for an announcement Of Turkeys with
drawal from the war. On Tuesday the
Frankfort Gazette printed dispatch
from ConstantinopIe to the effect that
far-reaching events were impending
there.
The dispatch said that in the Vilayet
of Smyrna, representatives of American
and British business interests have main
tanned throughout the war cordial rela-
lions with the governor, Rahme Bey,
"the uncrowned King of Smyrna" with
whom Constantinople never has dared to
interfere. The newspaper says that, de-
spite the rupture of diplomatic relations
many bridges still led from CONSTANT
nople to Washington
Robert college and the girls college on
the Bosphorus, as well as the American
university at Beirut and other education
al institutions, were permitted to con-
tinue work during the war. They were
supplied with food from Bulgaria, as
many students in these institutions come
from Bulgarian families of the upper
class 1t was through these channels, ac-
cording to the newspapers correspondent,
that first overtures were made TO Wash
ington looking to the withdrawal of Bull
garia from the war.

STATE HEALTH BOARD
ISSUES INSTRUCTIONS
On Precautionary Measures to Be Fol-
lowed in Influenza 0utbreak-Those
Attending Patients Should
Wear Masks.

ALI attendants on patients suffering
from influenza should wear a mask. This
warning is sent out by the Vermont
state board Of health.
The masks may be made very simply
as follows: Three layers Of buttd-
cloth or five 10 seven layers of fine
mesh cheese cloth so fastened that il
viii cover the nose and mouth They
should never be handled while being
worn. After using mask at one place
it should be placed in paper bag and
should not be used again until IL has
been boiled at least FIVE minutes Local
chapter Of the Red Cross will supply
these masks, or they can be easily made
at home
Attendants should also wear an apron
or gown over the ordinary clothes and
not remove this from the sick room ex-
cept wrapped in paper and not use
it for other purposes until it has been
boiled at least five minutes. The paper
wrapper for both masks and apron
should not be carelessly left, but i'm
mediatey burned after use. These pre-
cautions are especially important to
those who must necessarily attend to
other household duties.
II there is patient in your home,
boil every article coming from the sick
room. Keep all but authorized attend
ants out of the sick room If one must
come in contact with the patient, wash
your hands thoroughly with soap and
water afterwards.
The board gives few simple precau-
tions that must be constantly observed:
First is cleanliness. Shun all public
towels, public drinking cups, keep out
Of dirty restaurants and taboo dirty
food stores. Keep away from soda foun-
tains unless they provide sanitary paper
cups and wooden or other spoons that
are used only once. Boil all dishes
Wash the hands before handling food
and before all meals.
Cover every cough and sneeze with
a handkerchief or cloth and either boil
or burn the same after use.
Keep away from crowds. Do your Wis
iting in the open air.
Keep out of doors as much as possible
Dress warmly.
Keep your windows open at night;
add bed clothes but do not subtract
fresh air
Get plenty of sleep, Don't worry
If YOU feel sick go to bed at once and
send for Il physician. If the physician
cannot come at once take laxative
Drink plenty of water and eat light
simple food as milk, eggs, and toasts
Don't try to get up until the physi-
clan gives you permission.

PEACE PROPOSALS
Premature Peace Discussions Tend to
Relax Measures Essential
TO Victory.
to Victory.

Burlington, Oct. 1.-THE recent vie
tories of the allied armies, coupled with
the rumors of an early peace, offer real
menace to the achievement of victori-
GUS peace. The danger most to be feared
may be slowed up.
1t must be driven home to every Yer
monter that if America had failed for
sixty days to furnish supplies for the
soldiers in Europe the war would have
been lost cause. Then let this fact
sink in; If America fails to provide
enormously increased food supplies this
year the result will be Just as disast-
rous.
There are now nearly 100000 Ameri.
can soldiers in the allied armies and food
is just as much military necessity as
guns and ammunition. The food raised
in America this year must be stretched
out and made to feed both the Ameri-
can people and the allied armies and ma
tions. And there is the ever present
danger that next years crops may be
short.
These facts have compelled the United
States food administration to urge
stricter economy Of all foods, especial,
ly the staples that can be shipped
abroad, such as beef, fats, -four and
sugar. Ships that have been used to
bring sugar to America are now needed
to carry soldiers to Europe. Soldiers on
the battle front are vastly more impor-
tant than unlimited supplies of white
sugar.
From Oct. 81 Vermonters are asked to
observe more stringent regulations in
the use of sugar, meats and wheat prod
ucts, These rules are absolutely nee
essary and are important factors in the
triumph of the great cause of freedom
and democracy And a cheerful compH-
ance viii hasten the dawn of victori-
Gus and permanent peace which already
tints the war clouds that enshroud a
stricken world.

The National yard is building the new
type of vessel of 4,940 tons each The
first two Of these ships, which are classed
by authorities as among the innovations
of the war are now on their maiden voy-
ages. approximately l,500 dead weight
! tons larger than a Ferris type vessel the
new ship requires nearly 100000 fewer
feet OF timber to build and fewer steel
bolts. It was designed by A. A. Dough
arty, an engineer who at the outbreak Of
the war was building an oil refinery here.
His employers were in need of tankers to
transport crude oil from Mexico, and
Dougharty designed tanker 3l5 feet
long, with 4S-foot beam and 26 feet depth
of hold His design was radically differ
ent from the common type having the
boilers and engines in the stern, and his
propeller drive shaft was only 10 feet,
as against drive shaft of ll9 feet in
the Ferris type vessel A fore peak tank
balances the weight, The emergency
feet corporation officials were impressed
with the Dougharty idea and awarded
the company a contract for 26 of the
vessels.
Workmen at the National yards claim
a worlds record of setting up the 70
frames for Dougharty ship No. 242 in 30
hours and 80 minutes and have chal-
lenged other yards to equal the record
A Pacific coast company held the pre-.
yious record of A hours for framing
ship.
One Of the greatest problems confront
ing directors Of the shipyards here has
been protection against German agents.
On independence day, the torch was put
to the shipyard of the Orange Maritime
corporation by an enemy agent, resulting
in the yard and three large vessels being
destroyed. Now armed soldiers patrol
every foot of every yard, while agents Of
the department Of justice round up all
suspicious characters.

trouble, kidney misery, sleeplessness, inn

People who feel good one day and bad
