GRlEVED FOR QUENTIN'S FATE
Sons Death in Battle Contributed
...->I,, l.. NoIonnIe arAakdoNun


Oyster Bay, N. Y, Jan. 7.-One of
the things believed to have contributed
more than any other to Colonel Roose-
velt's breakdown was the death last
fall of his son, Lieutenant Quentin
Roosevelt. the aviator, in action in
France
Proud of his heroic sons achieve
ments, Colonel Roosevelt bore up I'M
der the sorrow of his death with a
fortitude that was in keeping with
his spirit in public life.
Friends said while the father did
not carry his heart on his sleeve" he
suffered most poignant griefs in 81
lence and tried to forget them by
plunging harder than ever into his
work.
Quentin was killed in combat, July
II, 1918, at Chamery, France. For
some weeks previous to confirmation
of his death there were reports he had
possibly been taken prisoner by the
Germans and might turn up alive.
This suspense added to the distress of
the Roosevelt household.

Start Tomorrow
and Keep It Up
Every Morning
Get I'm the habit of drinking a
glass of hot water before
breakfast.

We're not here long, SO let's maxi
our stay agreea BILE. Let us live well,
eat we'll, digest we'll work well, sleep
we'll and look we'll What a glorious
condition to attain, and yet, how very
easy it is if one will only adopt the
morning inside bath.
Folks who are accustomed to feel
dull and heavy when they arise, split
ting headache, stuffy from a cold,
foul tongue. nasty breath, acid stom-
ach, can, instead, feel as fresh as a
daisy by opening the sluices of the
system each morning and flushing
out the whole of the internal poison
GUS stagnant matter.
Everyone, whether ailing, sick or
we'll, should, each morning, before
breakfast, drink a glass of real hot
water with Il teaspOonful of lime
stone phosphate in it to wash from
the stomach, liver and bowels the
previous days indigestibIe waste,
sour bile and poisonous toxins; thus
cleansing, sWeetening and purifying
the entire alimentary canal before
putting more food into the stomach.
The action of hot water and limestone
phosphate on an empty stomach is
wonderfully invigorating. 1t cleans
out all the sour lamentations, gases,
waste and acidity and gives one d
splendid appetite for breakfast. While
you are enjoying your breakfast the
water and phosphate is quietly ex-
tracing a. large volume of water from
the blood ad getting ready for a
thorough flushing of all the inside
organs.
The millions of people who are
bothered with constipation, bilious
spells, stomach trouble; others who
have salloW skins. blood disorders
and sickly compilations are urged to
get a quarter pound of limestone
phosphate from the drug store. This
will cost very little, but Is sufficient
to make anyone a pronounced crank
on the subject of inside-bathing be-
fore breakfast

man of the committee, will be chosen
chairman to succeed Mr.. Mccormick.
The retiring chairman is now in
Paris. He resigned because he could
not satisfactorily handle the duties to
which he has been assigned by Pres
ident Wilson with the American
peace com mission, and at the same
time carry on the work of the party
committee
While the news of the resignation
Of Mr., Mccormick came as a COM
plete surprise to official and political
Washington, it was known by a few
close personal friends of Mr.. McCor-
mick before his departure for Paris
that he had resigned before leaving
this country. Word of the resigna-
ton first reached Washington last
night in a press association dispatch
from Paris.
Coincident with the news of the
resignation of Mr.. Mccormick it was
reported in Washington that William
G. Sharp, the american am bassadOr
to France, who is now in this city,
had also resigned This gave currency
to a report that Mr.. Mccormick would
be appointed as am bassador at Paris
to fill the vacancy.
While it is true that mbassador
Sharp has rendered his resignation to
the president, 1t was stated on good
authority that there is no real foun-
dalton for the report that Mr.. Nc
Cormick is going to succeed him as
American ambassador to France.
The facts In the situation, so far as
the resignation of Mr.. Mccormick is
concerned, are that he went to Paris
several weeks ago in company with
Bernard NJ. Baruch, both of whom
had been summoned to France by
President Wilson to serve in an ad-
Nisory capacity with the American
peace commission, and resigned be-
fore he left Washington. Mr.. McCor-
mick left with his associates on the
committee here a letter Of resignation,
but the fact that he had rendered his
resignation was being kept secret here
by request of Mr.. Mccormick.
Mr.. Mccormick felt that out Of
courtesy to the president his letter Of
resignation should not be made public
until after he had informed the pres
ident of his plans. From friends Of
Mr.. Mccormick the statement Is OBJ
tanned that he resigned because he
felt that he owed it to the democratic
national committee, on account of the
long absence from the country that
would be caused by his call to Paris
by the president to serve as world
trade adviser to the American peace
delegation
Mr.. Mccormick had contemplated
some weeks ago resigning as chair
man Of the War Trade board in order
to resume active charge Of the demo-
cratic national committee. But as he
had become an expert in world trade
matters in his capacity as chairman
of the War Trade board and had han
died its work so much to the salts
faction of the administration, Presi-
dent Wilson desired Mr.. Mccormick
to remain head Of the board.

LOCAL TEAM WINS

Fast WinStcd Tcann-SCOrc 65-16-
Slater and Stcpanian Star.

In a fast. though somewhat one
sided game at the Y. NJ. G.. A. last
night. the team of the local assoCia-
ton defeated the Goldenrods of Win
sted by a 65-16 score. The game was
hot1y contested and at times looked
as though the Goldenrods would gain
the lead, but by a series Of spurts, the
local team gained a lead and managed
to hold it throughout the game. A
large audience witnessed the game.
Although the GOldenrOdS had prac-
ticaly the same lineup used against
New Britain in the series of last year.
the local team with but two of last
wears men, Slater and Stepanian, were
able to keep the score on ice practl-
cally throughout the game. Many OF
the shots of the visitors went wild
while the New Britain boys located
the basket at difficult angles several
times Slater played well for the y.
NJ c. A, and Stepanan and DudJak
also did good work.
In the preliminary game of the eve
ming, the Y. NJ. G.. A. Leaders won over
the Terryville town team by q wide
margin. This is the second game of
the series between the two teams, and
as each has one game to its credit the
deciding game will be played in Terry
Vile, probably next week.

Mr. Burns is a keen follower of ev

there are many who side with him
in his views regarding the future Of
the sport.
While he has never been connected
in an official capacity with the big

men who has an extensive ncqnlint-
ance with players in the big show
Such men of fame as McGraw, Math-

granted to disabled officers and near
ly 500 600 10 disabled men. About
5000 new awards were being made
each week in respect of men who
were being demobilized, and they had
to expect more claims from men now
in hospital. At the time Of the armi-
stice there were $4,000 men in hos
pitfalls at home and abroad. Today
this number had been reduced to
about 100000 Many of these would
become pensioners. He estimated that
there would be at least 100000 tenn
pOrary pensioners, all unknown num-
Der of whom would become en-
titled to permanent pensions.
Arrangenn ents were being made by
the ministry of pensions to take over
orthopadic hospitals from the army
and to establish out patient clinics in
surrounding towns and districts, I'M
der the direction of the surgeons at
tached to the hospitals. Similarly
treatment would be provided in hos
pitals and ont patient clinics for cases
of nervous disease.
Giving some unpublished figures re-
lating to training, he said he esti-

mum bered about $4,000 men. He
did not mean that the whole of these
men were qualified to receive train
ing, but fcom among those they
should expect to find a large number
for whom training ought to be pro-
v1Ged. For example, there were a.
600 men who had each lost a limb by
amputation, and 12S,000 who had re-
ceived some injury, either to a leg
or an arm, not necesSitating amputa,-
ton; $4,000 who had suffered from
neurasthenia, $4,000 suffering from
chest complaints, including tubercu-
losis; $4,000 suffering from rheuma-
tism. 1000 suffering from heart
trouble, 10 600 suffering from deaf
ness, and there were 1 435 blind men
who had received training at st.
Dunstan's and Newington house,
Edinburgh There was, therefore, a,
large clientele which should receive
training.
Up to the present the ministry Of
pensions had trained or had in train
I ing $4,000 men. New schemes were
required and a great extension of the
training facilities was necessary. AS
to the future the cabinet had de-
cided that industrial training should

| ministry OF labor. There had been
some dissatisfaction expressed by To-
cal war pensions committees at this
change being made. But he thought

The ministry of labor was charged
with training not merely the disabled,
but apprentices and other able men,
and that ministry was charged also
with the finding of employment, not
merely for the disabled but also the
| fit and well. The minister of labor
had the machinery in the employ
ment exchanges throughout the coun-
| try to enable them to carry out his
| duty Moreover, the negotiations
with the trade unions necessary be-
i fore any training scheme could be set

look and feel as fresh as daisy al
