VERMONT STANDS SD.
Having Bettered Her Position Slightly in
the U. S. Thrift Stamp Campaign.

Vermont improved her position TIVE
places during the month of March in tbs
L. 5. thrift stamp campaign, and th'
state is now tied with Rhode Island fol
the SD position in total per capita in
vestment since the campaign started
For the month of March alone Vermont
ranked 2sth.
A slight slaekening of the campaign
was noticeable during the week ending
April 10, being no doubt due to the Lib
erty loan drive, but it is expected that
with the close of that drive the thrift
stamp movement will increase in mo-
mentum. Rutland county is doing SPLEEN
didly, being apparently unhampered by
any other campaign, and is giving Gale
donna county close run for first honor
position. This is due to an intensive
campaign conducted in the city of Rut-
land which gave the county more than
double the per capita increase of any
other county during the week.
The returns for the week ending April
l3 were as follows:

held on the charge of wearing the ar ny
uniform without authority. One of The
men is believed to be a German spy;
another is suspected of being an enemy
agent, while the others are thought to
be merely bad check men and hotel

In the campaign against bogus army
officers no less than l3S men Were taken
into custody by the military police wv
der Capt. Ralph Harrison. All were able
to prove their right to the uniforms with
the exception of the eight locked up
at the South armory.
The military authorities ordered all
officers in the service to wear civilian
clothes on visiting the city. With these
orders in force the fake officers were
spotted readily and rounded up in whole
sale numbers by provost guards.
Two officers from Camp Devens. Al
sent without proper leave, fell into the
net. Many other legitimate officers, I'M
aware of the orders. also got picked up,
but gained their release on giving sat
