Where Newspapers Are Useful.

Where Newspapers Are Usefui.
II has been my experience. observes
a correspondent, that the newspaper
has innumerable uses-for instance:
If one will cover the slide under the
burners of a gas stove with a news
paper, 1t will not catch fire and the
work of changing 1t every morning is
nothing In comparison to washing the
slide. A newspaper on top of the stove
always gives clean place to warm
dishes when the oven is In use, and
win last q long time before finally
scorching a little. The garbage pail
lined with newspaper keeps the pail
sweet and clean. Placed under the
rugs, newspapers will lengthen the life
of the carpet.

WOMEN WORK GERMAN GUNS
$50 of Them Captured by U. S.
Troops

Providence, Sept 21-Among pris-
oners taken by the American troops
on the Toul sector were $50 women
enrolled as machine gunners and
dressed in the regulation German uni
form, according to Corporal Napo-
leon Buteau of the 325th Regiment,
sd Division, who arrived Friday in
this city after six months service at
the front. He has been detailed back
to America to act as instructor at
some military cantonment.
The identity of the women was first
revealed, says Corporal Buteau,
when some of the wounded among
the prisoners were attended by Am
erican doctors, and it was discovered
that the hair on the back of their
! head had been shaved off and the re-
mainder coiled up under the steel
German hats.
Corporal Buteau declared that the
report that German machine gun
ners are frequently chained to their
guns is true, and that the Americans
have captured several Germans who
were prevented from flight in this
manner.
He further says that the women
machine gunners are courageous and
also show great efficiency and handle
their guns better than the average
German man.
Corporal Buteau was aboard the
Mt. Vernon, which was torpedoed.

Those who attend the school will

Those who attend the school will
be encouraged to ask questions on any
subject in connection with tractors
and engines. These questions will be
answered at the end of each school
session. There will be demonstrations
with engines and tractors themselves.
To be sure that every one who at
tends the school carries home with
him every point brought out there, a
book containing all subjects discussed
at the school will be given to every
man. Every farmer who owns a trac-
tor or engine should attend this
school, but, more important still, he
should bring with him the man who
operates his tractor Plan now to be
present at every session of the school,
for the men who do this will get the
greatest benefit out of it.
Don't forget the date, and be sure
to be there
