But the heart of simplicity is
full of happiness and the voice

walked arm in arm with happi-

Baden, the new German imperial chan
cellor, will declare against annexation
in the east and will favor the full res

number now under quarantine about I40.

yesterday
All the nine patients in the emergen-

tients have been received since yester-
day and none are expected there today.
Miss Carolyn Fandel, superintendent of
the Mutual Aid association, said today
that the cases about town under the
care of the Mutual Aid nurses were
showing good improvement.
The wisdom of closing the places of
public gathering is apparent in the small
daily increase in cases reported to the
health officer, and the situation so far as
this town is concerned seems to be well
in hand
Five hundred gauze masks have been
received at the Red Cross headquarters
and viii be supplied without cost to any
one who will use them in caring for in
| fluenza patients. The health officials
urge that all physicians, dentists, and
nurses use these masks to prevent infec-
tion, and thus aid in preventing the
tspread of the disease which has reached
the proportions of an epidemic in so
many sections of the country.
The surgeon general of the army and
surgeon general of the United States

masks in the examination of cases and

have subscribed to the limit of their
ability, and if the quota of $724 900
is raised ii will be necessary for people
situated comfortably financially. to in
vest more of their income. Previous al
lotments to Brattleboro have been met,
and it is the desire of the committee

this can be done if persons who already

since receiving the figures published

total was $76o,700, not counting $25,.
| 000 in pledges on which no payment
had been made. The reason for this
is that the town chairmen were told
that it would not be necessary to re
port again until this afternoon unless
the towns went over the top.
