conn. PREPARES TO
RECRUIT ITS BOYS
Working Reserve Campaign Will
Begin on January 20

Hartford, Nov. 27.---Connecticut is
prepared for recruiting campaign
for the United States Boys Working
Reserve to begin January 20, accord
to an announceme by w. D. Hood
Federal Director for Connecticut Of
the Reserve. Similar drives for re-
cruits will be instituted at the same
period throughout the country. Mr..
Hood said that the purpose of the
campaign in Connecticut, as elsewhere
was to provide additional farm labor
against the food shortage now faced
by the world. Plans will be an
nounced later
Although peace seems certain, the
world today faces the most alarming
food shortage in history" said Mr..
Hood. I'm America this shortage is
due almost entirely to q lack of farm
labor. According to present esti-
mates starvation will overtake many
parts of Europe unless the United
States can produce a maximum
amount Of foodstuffs in 1919. The
full development of the United States
Boys Working Reserve as a source of
farm labor Is therefore more import
ant to the nation than ever before, as
it is one Of the chief mediums of sup
ply for a sorely needed farm labor"
Mr.. Hood added that in Connecticut
plans were under way by which he
hoped and expected to have 1900
boys availa BILE for labor next summer.
He pointed out that the agriculture
lists Of the United States were a unit
on the Importance of continuing
the United States Boys Work
ing Reserve as a peace time organi-
cation. This was indicated by the
Appeal to the American People, just
made by the National Board of Farm
Organizations, representing practi-
cally every farmer in the country.
In it's statement regarding farm labor
cone editions, with recommendations as
to overcoming the present shortage
of farm help the National Board rec
commended the intensive training of
boys in accordance with the plans of
the United States Boys Working Re-
serve.
It was also pointed out by Mr.. Hood
that the economic worth of the Unit
ed Boys Working Reserve was indi-
Gated in a. report published by the In
diana State Council Of Defense, which
stated that during the vacation sea-
son last summer Indiana membe
of the Reserve earned $1,111,722 pro-
ducing food and munitions. Reports
verified by employers indicated that
4,323 boys raised enough food to feed
1880 soldiers for one year, and g.
055 Reserve boys worked a total of
673,107 days.

HOLLWEG REFUSES
TO BE MADE GOAT"
Former German Chancellor Will Ad-
nit His Errors But Won't
Take Unjust Blame.

London, Nov. 30.--Dr. Won Beth
mann Hollweg, German imperial
chancellor at the outbreak of the war
is eager for an investigation into his
share in the origin of the conflict, &C
cording to a statement he has made
to the North German Gazetteer of
Berlin, as quoted by the Central News
correspondent at Copenhagen.
The former chancellor refers to the
Bavarian revelations regarding the
wars origin and protests against the
publication of fragmentary extracts
from documents and the deductions
made from these. He admits Ger
many was not surprised at Austria's
action regarding Serbia, but declares
he was not aware of the text of the
u1timatum before it was dispatched,
and when he saw it he regarded it as
too sharp, both in it's tone and as to
the demands made.
The former chancellor says he Is
anxiously awaiting the day when his
case may be judged by an impartial
governmental tribunal.
1--WE will admit our errors" he
adds, "but will now allow ourselves to
be forced to make untrue confess
sions"

ARE YOU BOUND FOR THE SCRAP
HEAP?

HEAP?
Let me save you from the scrap
heap!
Doctor, L am not sick, but / don't
feel right That is what many say
to me when they come to see me the
first time. And that just expresses
II. You are not SICK enough to go
to bed. You can eat, you can sleep,
you can work.
But you don't work with the vim
and zest OF former days. Your sleep
is not restful, and you don't enjoy
your food as you once did. And your
nerves get the best of you. Things
bother you, ruffle you, that you never
noticed before. You begin to see diff
ficuIties where there really are none.
Trif1es worry you, and not having
enough troubles of your own, you
borrow some.
Of course. to a casual observer, you
seem the same, because you arc try
ing to control yourself. And IL you
should tell a friend, or go to an ir1~
experienced doctor, they will tell you
you only imagine things; you should
shake it off. You begin to doubt your
self You sometimes th1nK they are
right and try to brace up and be
bright and cheerful. But then your
old feeling will come back with re-
newed vigor. You begin to wonder
if it really is your mind only. And IL
it is so, is it the first step to tnsan-
ity? Anguishing thoughts begin tor
turing you; you are trying your best
to fight. them down, to appear happy,
but in vain. You find yourself in
the grip of an invisible power that
seems to sap your life blood.
And when you feel your strength
energy and power slipping away from
you, when you find you can't do JUS
tice to your work any longer. then
you become respondent and might
even feel tempted to end it all.
You are very much in the same
condition as a delicately constructed
engine, which has not been cared for
right. Put it in the hands Of an ex-
perienced man and he will soon have
it in fine working order. But trying
your own hand at it, or turn it over
to an unskilled person, and it will
soon be fit for the scrap heap.
