LOOKING BETTER

Improving

imp OVlHS
Especial to The Caledonian)
Burlington, Oct. 24-The influenza
situation in this city is showing some
improvement for the first time this
week.
There have been several deaths,
and the emergency hospitals are fiji
led with patients, but few are seri-
ously i'll. Bishop Rice has sent sew
eral sisters from the Fanny Allen
hospital to help out at the hospital
established for women at the city
high school and in addition has quar-
tered eight sisters at the Cathedral
high school who go into homes OF
other patients.
DR.. Frederic w. Baylies, a well
known physician of the city, died sud-
denly yesterday afternoon from over
work. He had been in poor health
but had been making as many as loo
calls day, and was exhausted by his
strenuous efforts.

POLITICS IS ADJOURNED
President Wilson Urges the Election
of Democratic Congressmen

Washington, Oct. 25-President
Wilson issued today an appeal to the
people to return Democratic Con-
gressmen in the November elections
if they approve his course in this crit
ical period Of the nations history.
The return of a republican majority
to either the House or the Senate, the
President said, would certainly be in
terpreted on the other side Of the
water as q reputation of his leader
ship. The President said he would
accept the country's verdict without
cavil, but If it was adverse the power
to administer the great trust assigned
him would be seriously impaired

UNCLE SANS
MUSICAL GODMOTHER
That's What the Boys Call Ray
Sawyer

Ask any American fighting man
you meet along Broadway who Ray
Sawyer is and he'll tell you she's the
greatest little girl in all the world.
If he happens to be a member of
some military musical organization
there will be no end Of praise for
her, for Ray Sawyer is Uncle SANS
musical godmother. She has put
more pep in the American army and
navy in the last six months without
saying a word about it than all the
drill masters in uniform and, Incl
dentally, she has created one of the
most novel war relief organizations
Of the war.
Six months ago, Miss Sawyer, New
Y ork girl and assistant to the direc-
tor Of the Junior Division of the Am
erican Red Cross, made a tour o.
military training camps. At one of
these she was invited to hear the
band play. The pieces were repeated
many times.
"What's the idea?" asked Ray
Sawyer.
A big major standing beside her
laughed.
"Why, the boys only have a few
pieces and they have to play them
over and over again to keep going.
We know them by heart and back
ward"
Right here was the germ of her
scheme.
"I1l adopt this band for the dura-
ton of the war;" announced Ray
Sawyer.
Back to New York she hurried and
into the Office of big Broadway
music publisher.
''Let me see some Of your latest
pieces" she asked the manager.
An armful of professional copies
was handed her. Over to the piano
she went, and one after the other
she played them, picking out the
three best.
"Now run me off full orchestrations
of these-a dozen or so copies. They
are for the soldiers. Do your bit"
The publisher did, and the boys
down at camp began jazzing things
up bit.
Well, the news spread like wildfre.
Some marine and naval bands got
wind of it. Two or three American
doughboy bands in France heard,
and soon Ray Sawyer was getting
letters from every point in, the
world where there are American
fighting men.
When Ray Sawyer quits work at
five o'clock now down at Red Gross
headquarters in East Twenty third
street she hurries up to the theatre
district, visiting the music houses to
get the latest there is in melody. 1t
is nothing for her to have thous-
and or SO copies of new song hit
run off the press, and she waits
around so she can have them done up
in bundles SO she can personally see
that they are shipped to France
i On her mailing list she has virtual
ly every battleship, cruiser and war
ship in the American navy, dozens of
environments, forts and scores of
bands and orchestras behind the
lines in France and Italy.
"The idea started just like the story
about Topsy," Miss Sawyer says. cit
just grew
81 get the most wonderful letters
of appreciation-dozens a day. Be-
lieve me, I'm happy, I'm able to do
something. Nothing doleful goes.
l could send them The Rosary or
other songs of the kind, but, gee,
they want something poppy after
few weeks in the mud of the front
line trench or after a three weeks
cruise. 1t keeps me busy after hours
until midnight, sometimes-but,
gosh, there's satisfaction.
That's the accomplishment of one
American girl in the war.

NO EXTRA WAR WORK
Vermont Schools Have Work Enough
Ahead

Montpelier, Oct. 24-M. B. Hille-
gas, commissioner of education, has
returned from Boston, where he at
tended a conference of allied war
workers. He went in the interests of
the schools of the state. Last year
an effort was made to impose a great
deal of work upon the schools to
which DIR. Hillegas objected and car
ried his point, showing that with the
shortened school year and the extra
work they were doing that they
could not take on the work. This
year allied workers have assumed the
same attitude as Dr. Hillegas.

The Bodies of the Worlds Great

London, Oct. 25-A new chapter

terment of the body of the former,
