Twenty boys were employed to break
roads, gather sap, chop wood stoke
fires, and boil strain and deliver the
syrup The best methods were taught
in this camp and absolute cleanliness
was insisted upon. The output was
judged to be among the best made in
the state and the boys took much in
terest in doing the work so the standard
would be maintained A festival con-

HOW CAN YOU TELL YOUR
FAVORITE TOBACCO?
As Plain as the Nose on Your
aCe-JuSt Smell II

Smokers do not have to put tobacco
in their pipes to find out if they like it.
They can just rub the tobacco between
the palms of their hands and smell it.
The nose is an infallible guide to smok-
ing enjoyment.
All smoking tobaccos employ some
flavoring TO improve the favour and
burning qualities Of the leaves, to
quote the Encyclopedia Britannica.
Naturally, there is considerable differ
ence in the kind Of flavorings used, and
the nose quickly detects this difference.
TUXEDO Tobacco uses the purest,
most wholesome, and delicious of all
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. And the almost
universal liking for chocolate in a great
measure explains the widespread popu-
larity Of TUXEDO Tobacco.
Ca -!uly aged, old Burley tobacco,
plus n Of pure chocolate, gives
IT, } Tobacco a pure fragrance
your Ose can quickly distinguish from
any other tobacco. Try it and see.

RYDER SIGHTSEEING
IN THE RHINELAND

It. Robert Ryder, son of Eben c.
Ryder of 81 Seymour street, Middle
bury, is having fine time as one of the
army of occupation sightseeing on the
Rhine, A letter from him last week,
reads in part as follows:
1--WE have been able to see many beau
tiful places and things which we could
not have done better had we been here
on Cooks Tour, On Sunday we spent
half a day in Cologne, which was one
of the gayest of the Rhinish cities be-
fore the war, and whose shop windows
have displays that rival those of New
York We heard some fine music also,
but the chief interest in the trip was
our passing many old castles up and
down the river We went up the Rhine
on one of the Y. NJ. c. A. excursion
boats, II want to say that the "Y"
is redeeming itself now for much that
was done in the past These boats go
up the river to a point about ten miles
above the "Lorelei" and the "Y" man
had much to tell us about the places
which we passed
Wednesdays trip was the best of
all We received pass to the head
quarters of the French bridge head at
the city of Mainz, from which one may
take a 20-mile ride into Wiesbaden.
This is the mecca of gouty-toed million
aires and it is fully as pretty as Nice,
even if it does not possess the much
sought baths, Most of our time in the
city was spent in the Kurhaus, which
is combination club, carbaret, and OPP
era house, and is the most beautiful
place l ever saw. Some French poilus
are amusing themselves by viewing the
stage from the Kaiser's private box"
One of It. Ryder's enclosures with
his letter was the program of an elabor-
ate horse show of the And American
Division which was held at Ahrweiler,
Germany, February 10.

morrow will stress the reasons why
the District should at once increase
the water pressure in the downtown

ranged today.
1t will be pointed out that fire pro-
lection alone demands the immediate
Increase of the pressure, which is
only forty-hve pounds downtown, as
against ninety pounds in the residence
district. 1t will also be stressed that
the increased pressure down town
does not mean the laying OF single
foot of water main downtown, but
only the placing of valves.
Buildings downtown now are put to
a cost of $4,000 a year to pump wa
ter to their upper floors, despite the
fact that the District government,
which charges the same rate to resi-
dences and business houses is moral
ly bound to furnish the water where
it can be used instead of pumping 1t

effort to elevate II.

BRITISH M.P.LEADS
FIGHT ON OLD AGE

LONDON, Nov. 1e.-Ths Youngest
member of the British Parliament,
Capt Oswald Moseley. twenty-five,
is leading an assault on entrenched
old age. believing that IL Is high time
Tor youth, which was called upont to
win the war and which always has
been exploited by "old dead minds
and senile bodies" to come into it's
own. He has invited the youth Of
Great Britain to "assail and expose
to the light of day the last fortresses
OF the old: to burst open the parlors
OF secret diplomacy, where old men
were wont to barter the life of yoath
as counters in an after-dinner Esme,
and to tear down the last barriers
which vested selfishness and ignorant
prejudice have created in the path
of social progress"
Moseiey Is chairman OF the London
branch of the League Of Youth. He
has no respect for what is termed
experience, which, he declares, has
become the last boast of an old gen.
tleman who has lost the full posses
sion OF his faculties'' He thinks the
old are least qualified to build q nav
world.
The real division today, he says, Is
between age>and youth-"between the
type that merely desires to return to
1914, with its little artificial life, II.
meanness, its stupendous selfishness
and the type that longs to march for
ward to the winning Of q better world.
Beware" warns Moseiey. "of the
| old dead men, with their old dead
minds, embalmed In the tombs of the
past, lest they creep back to dominate
your new age, cleaned Of their mis-
| takes in the blood of your generation
"See that they have no share in the
building Of that temple which tn
hands of youth shall erect upon the
| ashes of it's dead in everlasting mem
orial to those that died to save this
| world from the blunders, the foilies
| and the crimes OF complacent old
age"
