MASKS FOR DOCTORS
 AND NURSES IN EPIDEMfCS

Physicians and nurses, while at tending cases of influenza, are urged by the state department of health to
 wear masks. These, it was said, should be adjusted to the face before entering a sick room and not removed CT otherwise touched by the hands
 until the attendant leaves the room l Then the hands should be thoroughly
 washed in an antseptic solution and
 the mask sterilized. Hospital assist
 ants, according to the health depart
 ment, should change their masks al two hour intervals unless the masks are wet, when they should be changed
 at shorter intervals. The masks then should be steriIized
 Dismfection of masks, it was ex plained, may be accomplished by BSfi ing them for five minutes. Until they can be boiled. they should be wrap ped securely in paper.
 The health department pointed ou1 that observance of those rules would lessen the danger of infection to at tendants

OH, YEsi WOODEN SHOES
 MAY BE OUR FOOTWEAR!

There are no buster men in trade just now than are the dealers in shoes, and there's a reason! ,t
 While they are briskly 'dfSposing of their stock they can have no profiteer- ing, however. for Uncle Sam has in- timated to them just what they may price their goods, fixing the limit at SIP.
 Neither are they especially juhilant to see the boxes on their shelves growing empty and the sample stock sold from their show cases; for. aI- though they are in the business to dispose of footwear, alack! they are worried to know where next years supply is to come from!
 For the government is using up all the leather available and is still call ing for more. As for rubber, well, just try to buy arctics or rubber boots in the wholesale market, sug.- sests one local dealer, and see what you will be told Nothing doing! Ev- erything needed to be shipped over- seas! Oh. of course the factories are mak- ing shoes and boots but mainly with leather and rubber which they. were lucky enough to have on hand; and all l the time their designers are trying to oFAiAltl iOit R0ttGAlic. dS NS1II dS LO= HI upon satisfactory substitutes for the familiar calfskin, and kid and what ! not used for shoe making since time I immemorial. As generally known ! what is grandly referred to as Cor | dovan leather, of which mems shoes
 are made, is really horse hide. Other
 substitutes are being experinented with in other lines Of footwear.
 And so it goes. What the patriotic i public will have to realize is, not thai shoes are costing mere, but that they ] are growing scarce, and alar1ntngls
 50! Dealers assert i'll all seriousness
 that with leather almost impossible tc 1 get available factory labor reduced 5f
 per cent. and vexing delays in get ting goods delivered, the shoemar
 who disposes of his present stock does
 so with absolutely no guaranty that
 he will be able to get anything tt replace it. Points on shoe styles. cuts. colors
 etc, will be given tomorrow. Mean
 time, with the warning that footwear ! scarcity is bound to increase rather than to be relieved, intending buyers will show wisdom in not delavins their purchases, after noting what The
 Bulletins advertisers have to say this
 morning on the topic Of trim and sea
 sonable foot fitting5.

SECOND DISAPPOINTMENT
 OF STORRS OPENING

The authorities at Sterrs announced
 on Wednesday a, second poseponen1ent
 for the opening of the Connecticut
 Agricultural College. Candidates for
 the Student Army. Training Corps who
 had been ordered to Storrs Oct. 10th
 will now not report for duty until De-.
 tober Fist. In explaining the reasons
 for this second postponement, Presi-
 dent Charles l.. Beach said that Dr.
 C. E. Simonds of Willimantic was the
 man held technically responsible by
 the war department for the health of
 the unit st Storrs. Dr. John T. Black
 of New London, state health commits
 siorler, said frankly that he had no
 authority in this matter, but he be-
 lleved it would be better to postpone
 the opening for another fortnight in
 view of the fact that influenza epi-
 denies in some parts of the state,
 were not yet on the ,wane. President
 Beach also telephoned Dean James H.
 Ropes of Harvard University. regional
 director of the war departments com mittte on education and special train ing. Dr. Ropes said that he likewise had no authority ir the matter of postponernent, but he could not see how the war department would go back of the combined recemmenda-
 tions of it's own surgeon and the health commissioner of the state of Connecticut
 Major Tlynn, in command of the s. 4. T. C. unit, does not consider that postponing the opening for an= other. two weeks will affect the nili- tary department adversely. The ex- pIanation is that sixty mer had ad- | ready reported to Storrs for induc- ton into the service. These were au- l thorized to return to their homes to await the regular opening of college | They preferred, however. to remain in the barracks at their own expense; and not only this. but they voiuil | teered to go ahead with the work | without waiting for full formalities 1 These men are not yet in the pay ot the government, but are nevertheless putting in their four hours day at military drill and Major Flynn ex- pects to make splendid use of these volunteers when the full quota of 400 men report for duty two weeks hence 1 No color line will be drawn in in- l ducting men into A units Of the s. A, l T. c, and President Beach said that | similar instructions had undoubtedly l been issued by the war department tc ] institutions that have E units and
 signal corps units The military and college authorities acting cooperative l ly are directed to use discretion in the ] matter of providing separate mess and l quarters for such segre gation as may 1 be necessary under local conditions l but after all is said @a1d done eEgibil- l itv does not depend upon color Any 1 young man in Connecticut of drafi age who is qualified to become 2, mem l her of the training corps is urged tc
