HoARD OF HEALTH.
The principal work of the month
has been directed toward the at
tempted control OF the epidemic OF
Spanish Influenza, II is evident that
the epidemic in Vermont developed
considerably later than that in Mas
sachusetts and apparently most of
our foci of infection can be traced
directly to Massachusetts, and partic-
ularly to Camp Devens. Where the
disease first started in this state is
unknown, but by the middle OF the
month, reports began coming in from
various parts OF the state. mostly on
the east side, showing that the dis
ease had obtained a foothold. st.
Johnsbury seemed TO be the most
seriously affected at first, but It soon
developed that Montpelier and Barre
were In worse condition than any
other places in the state.

ed during the month are as follows

|DOLATRY GREAT
EVIL IN GERMANY
Such Is the Opinion Recently
Expressed by Lord
Robert Cecil
STATE is ABOVE RELIGION
Secret of Whole Revolving List
of Outrages and
Atrocities.

LONDON, January 1s.-"The funda-
mental evil of Germany to-day is Idol
airy" said Lord Robert Cecil In a state
fnent for the Associated Press. They
have set up for themselves a craven
image. just as truly as did tho wor-
shippers of Baal. against whom tn.
prophets OF the Bible preached.
"Germany's idol is the state. They
PLACE the state above religion, above
morality. above all laws OF God or
man. They believe that any act is
justified which advances the interests
or the German state, however base that
act may be. however immoral, how
ever inconsiderate OF the lawful rights
Of others.
otto Kahn. himself German by
origin, has defined this state idolatry
as the demoniacal obsession OF power
worship and world dominion
This idolatry Is at the bottom OF
our whole fight against Germany. II
Is the secret of the whole revolving lis,
of outrages and atrocities which Ger
many has committed against the civil
lied world. The violation of Belgium.
the Armenian atrocities. the unspeak-
able horrors OF submarine warfare
all these are the outcome OF creed
which holds that no laws OF morality
arc binding when tho defense of the
state idol is at stake.
The results OF this violating OF the
foundations OF morality by Germany
arc bound to be colossal and far-rcach-
Ing. They mean the degcncracy of the
whole German structure, and the eff
olr
crime and immortality which is sweep
Ing over Germany. So long as the gov
erning classes are infected with this
doctrine, there Is no limit to the wick
edness and cruelty which will be put
into execution. 1t means the under
mining ultimately OF the whole fabric
OF their civilization. This is what
President Wilson has forescen This is
reason for the determination of
President Wilson and tho leaders of the
allies on both sides of the water to
carry this war through, whatever the
cost, In order that the world may be a
fit world to live In.
Tho Lansdowne letter has been
thought by some to Indicate some weak.
ening of determination on the part OF
this country, some change of attitude
believe any such impression is-a
profound delusion. know It is a de-
fusion as far as the actual government
or England Is concerned. and I believe
that the British people. as a whole.
including Lord Lansdowne himself, arc
moro determined than ever to bring the
war to victorious conclusion.
Il see that It Is being alleged with
certain degree OF FEASIBILITY that
there arc many points In which Lord
Lansdowne is in agreement with Pres
ident Wilson's message. That may be
SO. But in the case of tho Presidents
message there breathes through every
line not only determination to win

HIGH WAGES; HIGH PRICES
House of Commons Given Report That
shows Advances Recently Made
Goods.

LONDON, January 19.-'Tigh wages
mean high prices. Fresh cycles OF wage
advances succeed one another. Eacn
one results in further increases OF prices
or in preventing a reduction OF prices.
The producers are raising prices
against themselves as consumers. We
are deeply Impressed with the serious
that If the process continues. the result
can hardly fail to be disastrous to all
classes of the nation"
This is the summing-up Of report
just given to the House Of Commons
by its Committee on National ExpendI-
ture. after long investigation into the
rising cost Of necessities of all kinds in
Great Britain. 1.-The whole thing is a
vicious circle OF rising wages followed
by rising prices" asserts the report
The countcr-recommen tons OF the
committee include:
The government should endeavor to
avoid the creation OF new credits In
financing the war.
The actual increase in the cost OF liv-
Ing to the working classes should be
asccrtained.
Profits should be limited.
Any advance OF wages should be
limited il given on any ground other
than the rise in the cost OF living.
~ SiHSIe pollcy unuer the direction
of one authority should be adopted In
all industry in the determination OF
wage questions. The al-around in
crease in wages of 10 per cent and
similar increase in the cost OF COM
moditics purchased at home has al
ready involved an increase in national
expenditure OF l3O,00o,O00 pounds year
ly.
One OF the most important causes OF
the increase Of expenditure, says the
committee. has been the expansion OF
credits. If it had been possible TO finance
the war from day to day by means en-
tirely of taxation and loans from tho
savings of the people. the general in
crease OF prices would have been con-
siderably less than ii is.

the ambulance unit was attached
The fourragere is braided cord,
looped under tho left shoulder and
carried across the left breast to the
third button in the front OF the tunic.
Section No. won its first army cita-
ton during the French counteroTensive
at Nerdun, when General Mangin won
back from the crown prince the posi-
tons mcnacing the citadel-positions
for which the Germans had fought un-
ceasinEly for seven months

won ground. prisoners and glory in
almost every offensive the French have
undertaken since tho beginning of the
war. The American drivers worked
day and night under bombardment,
through barraEes and amid bursting
bombs from German airplanes circllnE
overhead
The second army citation was won
on the Aisne, when the French hurled
the Germans back over tho Chemin-
des-Dam es. and thus deprived them of
the line OF heights which they had
used as observatories to watch every
thing the French were doing. The
most dangerous part Of the work of
evacuatins the French wounded and
the injured Germans who were cap
tured lay In crossing the .poutoon
bridges hastily cast across the Aisne
by the French engineers. These
bridges were always under she'll fire
the Krupp gunners being signaled by
artillery observers in captive balloons
and by German aviators. But the
Americans never finched when the
pontoons were blown to pieces; they
merely ran up or down stream 10 the
next bridge and crossed on that. So
General Petain cited them again in an
ohhciai army order OF the day.
