Local astronomers who had figured
out that Saratoga was to be within the
shadow of the eclipse last Saturday
afternoon, seem to have m~iscalculated
by about a quarter of an inch. The
eclipse lacked just the least bit of
being total here, which was a disapoint-
ment to the many observers. Old Sol
hid his face almost entirely, but peeked
around he moon to II sufficient extent
to prevent any view of the corona or
other phenomena attending a total
eclipse.

Following a custom which has obtain
ed for a number of years, Mrs. NJ. NJ.
Cushing was hostess on Monday after
noon of this week to Mr.. and Mrs. NJ.
b. McKillip and II. d. B~lydenburg, the
occasion being a birthday dinner for
Messrs. McKillip and B~lydenburg.
A fine dinner was served and a beauti-
full birthday cake had been prepared
for each of the gentleman. The cakes
were decorated with the appropriate
number OF candles-we are not in
formed as to the number, but it is said
that in each case a blow of huge
proportions was required to extinguish
all of them at one breath. The after
noon was spent with music and visiting
and the occasion proved a most enjoy
able one for all present.

Many and varied are the channels
through which money flows into the
Golfers of the Red Cross chapters, but
it is doubtful if any other branch in
the country has derived any part OF its
income from such a source as that
from which the Saratoga chapter re-
ceived in the neighborhood of twenty
dollars during the past week-from the
sale of bear meat. The cinnamon bear
killed near town last Saturday by Ray
mond Ault was dressed by Mr.. Ziegler,
the local market man, and the meat dis
posed of to the public, the proceeds be-
ing donated to the Red CROSS.

HOW THE ALLIES DEALT WITH
THE U-BOATS.

The official revelations now being
made of the progress that the allies had
made in their warfare against German
U-boats up to the time of the signing OF
the armistice furnish strong proof of the
claim made far back in the war that the
height of the U-boat success was reached
in the early summer of 1918, from which
time the menace rapidly dropped off I'M
til, toward the end of the actual warfare,
the influence of that part of the German
naval arm was reduced very greatly. We
have no less an authority than Admiral
Sims of the American navy for the state
ment that Germany had lost up to Aug.
|, 1918, a total of $50 submarines, ont of
33l vessels of that type which had been
constructed. Moreover, Germany started
ont on the August campaign with only
l47 of the undersea boats, or less than
one-half the total output up to that date.
That would make as many as 81 U-boats
which are not accounted for in the re-
port of Admiral Sims. Probably most of
those "a were so badly damaged through
attack by the allies or because of wear
and tear that they were out of commits
sion Since Aug. | Germany must have
completed the building of other subma-
rines and the vessels must have been put
into operation during the three months
between that date and the signing of the
armistiee, so that Germany's total
strength after Aug. probably was con
siderably greater than the l47 on hand
on Aug. l. How much toll the allies ex-
acted in the three months interval may
be guessed at from the fact that thus far
Germany has surrendered only approx.
mately 1870 U-boats, and apparently her
supply is nearly exhausted. When the
complete story of allied success against
the submarines of the enemy is written
it will perhaps show that as many as IT'S
U-boats were destroyed, to say nothing
of others that were seriously damaged.
1t is likely, too, that the revelations will
show that after the arrival of the United
States feet on the scene Of action the de-
struction of the U.boats was consider
ably accelerated.

The esteemed Rutland News shows its
unfamiliarity with the Barre granite in.
dustry by commenting on the new raise
in wages for the granite cutters of this
district as follows; Nov that their high
wages are assured, the granite cutters
may only hope that the demand for their
labor win be sufficient, That will de.
pend largely upon the resumption Of
building construction in the country =
The Barre granite industry, let us ex-
plain, is devoted almost entirely to the
manufacture of memorials for the dead
and 1 IT TO the construction of buildings
so Barre is not dependent upon the re-
sumption Of building construction for its
prosperity. Furthermore, it might be
stated, the demand for labor has been
constant for year or more and the bust
ness has been greatly handicapped be-
cause orders had to be refused; so labor
win be likely to find ready market in
Barre for some time, especially since
there appears to be likelihood Of marked
increase in the orders.

COAL TO COST S1.O5
/ MORE IN DISTRICT

District consumers must pay Sl.O5
a ton more more for coal mined after
November than for coal mined since
August %, according to a ruling made
by Fuel Administrator Garfield.
According to the announcement OF
the Fuel Administrator. an average
increase in price of "a cents gross
ton OF 2.24o pounds is permitted. The
average, however, includes low priced
coal not used in the District. Egg.
stove, broken. chestnut, pea, white
ash and red ash, used in Washington,
are of high grade, and have increased
$1.05 a ton.
Permission for the increase was
granted to the mines by the Fuel Ad-
ministrator because the cost of opera
,tion was increased through the grant
ing OF increased wages TO the miners.
