s1nPNG THROUGH SCHOOL

A woman who runs little busi-
ness as q public stenographer in one
of the larger cities, was giving the
other day her experience with high
school graduates. The majority of
them are we'll trained young folks.
But occasionally some who get by
with diplomas are SO incompetent
that It Is a mystery how they ever
slipped through.
One such girl who graduated from
a. commercial course in one Of the
best schools in the state, fell down
90 badly that she was dismissed the
first day. She began by spelling
~auto." lotto" Then she kept up
the good work by spelling right,
rite
Her next exploit occurred when she
was given a bill to mail to some GUS
toner. The bill was made out to
William Anderson DR.. She addressed
the envelope on the outside William
Anderson, Dr."
It was concluded that she was new
er intended for a business career. An
other girl in the same office wrote q
letter referring to the propagation
of pheasants," and called it the
''provocation of pheasants."

MRS. BUEL SAYS
MOONEY'SCHARCE
ABSOLUTELY FALSE

The appended statement made to
the Hartford Courant will be Of great
interest to members Of the d. A. r.,
in this city:
"Its an out and out Ie." said Mrs.
John l. Buel, state regent of the
Dausnters of the American Revolu-
ton, when she was told Of the state
ment of Edmund L. Mooney, counsel
for Mrs. William Cumming Story, for
mer president general of the D. A r.,
30 the effect that the charges against
Mrs. Story in connection with the
Emergency Relief Society were due
to an attempt of a number of Con-
necticut members of the D. A. R to
''get revenge for some action that
occurred in that organization when
Mrs. Story was president-general.
Mars Buel went on to say that the
Connecticut delegates voted Tor Mrs
Story at both national conventions,
Were sorry we did now" said Mrs.
Buel, 'Sbut 1 know nothing about Mrs.
Story's activities or the charges made
against her now except what have
read in the public press"
Mrs. Buel said she had never heard
Of the National Emergency Relief So
ufety until the charges against Mrs.
Story brought in into prominence.
She did not believe that any Connect
lieut. members OF the %. A R belonged
to the organization or had paid any
attention to Mrs. Story since her re-
tirement from the presFdent-general-
shfp In 1917.

ton, the War Industries Board, and
the Fuel Administration. The coun-
Gil was formed primarily to prevent
delays, financial loss, and uncertainty
incident to the method of taking up
each highway problem in its turn
with separate and distinct Govern
ment agency. This council was con-
stituted at the suggestion of the Secre-
tary Of Agriculture. Through the De-
partment it will continue the close
contact already established, both for
mally by law and Informally by prac-
tice, with the State Highway Commits
sion in each State of the Union.
The council utilities the organiza-
tons of the forty eight State highway
departments with their trained per-
sonnet and their knowledge of local
conditions and provides a single agen-
cy where all highway projects calling
for governmental action of any char
acter, whether it be a question of fl
nance, of materials, transportation, or
of war necessity or desirability, may
be dealt with. The council has pro-
vided a definite form on which appli-
cations for relief are to be made
through the respective State highway
departments, and has sent supplies of
the forms to the departments. 1t
emphasizes the great need of conser-
walton of money, transportation, Ia
Dor, and materials by restricting high
way and street work to most essential
needs. 1t ranks maintenance of ex-
listing streets and highways first, re-
construction of badly damaged streets
and highways next, and it places last
new construction justified only on ac-
count of vital war or economic neces-
sity.

appearance.


Plants which have been attacked
by them show characteristic brown
area, where the green portions of the
leaves have been skinned off by these
insects. Last year, the damage they
did was most noticeable on beans and
on number of different kinds Of
shade trees.
! Not only do the insects do injury
to plants but are a source of danger
to poultry. Chickens, ducks and tur-
keys will die within "a hours after
eating them. Young chicks, especi-
ally up to 10 weeks of age, are liable
to injury, hence they should be kept
from fields where the bugs occur.
The control of the Rose Chafer is
more difficult than many other gar
den insects due to the fact that they
are able to stand a greater amount of
arsenic than the ordinary insect. A
spray made up of four pounds of lead
arsenic paste, so gallons of water
with the possible addition of one GAL
Ion of cheap molasses is recommend
for them. This would amount to
about one tablespoon of paste to a
gallon Of water when it is desired to
make the spray in small quantities.
If the arsenic of lead is used in pow
dered form. only one-half as much
need be used as is the case with paste.
Paris green cannot be used in large
quantities without liability of injury
to the plants.

SECRET TREATY
OF BOLSHEVIKI
AND GERMANY
Russians Agree to Let Ger
mans Dominate In Poland
and Dictate Policies

London. June 2S-Germany and
the Russian Bolshevik government,
in a secret convention regarding the
future Of Poland. have virtually
agreed to cooperate in crushing Pol
ish nationalist aspirations. Details Of
the treaty have been printed in the
newspaper The Nations Voice Of
Cracow, Galicia, according to a dis
patch to the Times from Milan.
The Bolshevik government pledged
itself to recognize Austro- German
hegemony in Poland and to aid in de-
Tending it against the former allies
of Russia.
The Cracow newspaper describes
the treaty as a 'scandalous doou-
ment showing the treachery Of the
Bolshevik and the baseness of the
Germans" 1t gives the gist of the
eight articles Of the agreement as
follows:
/. The Polish policy shall be con-
Quoted by Germany.
3. The Russian government pledges
itself not to interfere with the or
ganization Of Poland.
8. The Russian government may
keep in touch with democratic and
revolutionary clubs in Poland through
agitators known to the German in
formation bureau.
I. The sending Of agitators to Ger
many and Austria shall be suspended
by the Russian government.
8. Russia shall exercise. strict Wig
ilance over Polish national groups so
as to prevent them from enlisting in
the Russian territorial army.
6. Russia shall. consider violation
of the frontiers of Lithuania and the
Ukraine by Polish troops as a de-
claration of war on Germany. Aus
tria- Hungary shall aid in crushing
such troops.
z. Russia shall prevent Russian
citizens from investing their own or
French, British or American capital
in any industrial undertaking in Po-
land.
8. Russiap lodges itself to recognize
the eventual new state of things to be
created by Germany and Austria in
Poland and to defend it against Rus
sia's former allies.

of the government in all its war

of the government in all its war
aims.
The winner of this suite may
or may choose any suite or any mer-
chandise in the store and $125 will be
credited against such selection.
Much has been written about this
rnagnanimous offer of the Clerk Fur
niture Co., but we want to add that in
the entire commercial history of
Bridgeport no merchant has ever
made a more unself1sh or a more pa
triotic donation. Mr.. Morrison not
only gave the suite without strings
of any sort) but also prepared signs
in abundance announcing the offer
also devoting upwards of 5000 of ad-
vertising space, delegating one man
of the store staff to sell thrift stamps,
all of which detail was financed by
the Clerk Co.
That nearly $4,000 will be realized
by the sale of stamps during the two
weeks proves the merit Of the prop
osition and is. mute evidence of the
help accorded the War Savings Com
mittee.
The accompanying illustration Of a
hugh circus wagon bedecked in Thrift:
Stamp signs, which appeared in the
Barnum & Bailey circus parade last
week is but another of the Tive wire
publicity stunts which Mr.. Morrison
evolved as a means to further coop
crate in the sale of these little baby
bonds"
Be on hand Friday at 8 p. m. as
you may be the lucky winner-you'll
enjoy the program in any event.

we're more appreciated than at the
present time. The influence OF
women is felt everywhere, on the

demonstrate the fact that women
can in almost every case replace
men successfully. Women all over

chat their work at home will help
