It was thought that NIager would be eligible. due to the Hxaiving of the One-year resident rule. Contrary to popular belief it now
 has developed that Harvard, Yale and Princeton entered into a separate Agreement whereby the one-year rule Swould not be suspended among them Sselves. Hager's incligibility is based apn this rule.

The A. E. F. and What it Did

Letter from Lieut.. A. Donald A.
Thomas of Milbalk, N. ID.
nee, on board the "a. F. F.
Press Special"
April %, 1919
Dear ALL
| write to the lurch of the train,
seated in car IL of the U. S. Hospi-
tai Train, No. G3, which, no longer
needed for evacuation of the wound
ed, is now used to carry former news
paper men and writer's, now in the
service, over the A. E. F. from the
Atlantic Ocean to the Rhine, that
these men, when they return to the
States, may be able to give the peo-
pie of the United States Il complete
and correct impression of what the
American Army accomplished in
France.
My previous experience would
scarcely qualify me as a writer but it
and my present connection with the
Historical Section were sufficient to
secure for me an invitation to make
this trip, AMI, after learning from
those in charge the purpose and after
one day in scandalized Brest,
would indeed be ungrateful to Uncle
Sam, who is footing the bill, if did
MT do all in my power right now to
let the facts be known.
Indeed, | would be ncglecting an
important duty, if didn't write, for
we are about to learn about the A.
f. +. as but few others know it and
to cover ground which only few of
the many tourists, which will come
Weekly Caledonian. (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1919-1920, 1919-05-28

later, can cover it at the expense of
hundreds Of dollars. And even they
would not be furnished all the infor-
nation that is being furnished us. SO
you can easily see why consider this
the greatest advantage | have ever
had.
"To place the cards all on the
table" that in brief is the purpose OF
this trip, us explained by a Major Of
the General Staff who is in chal ge
of arrangements, when, on yesterday
afternoon after we had baan duly
checked in and assigned to cas-, ne
gathered US all together in tho big
baggage room of the Care Montpar
nassc at Paris for little talk btfoi e
the train started. The newspaper
men and writer's, he explained, will be
expected, when they return, to tell Of
the army and what it did in France.
They should be in a position to do
this authoritativcly and to correct
any wrong impressions that may be
held. Each and every man, however,
has been largely confined to his own
little field of duties. If he was in
the S. o. S. he did not see tic army
zone, if he was in the army zone, he
saw little of what was accomplished
in the S. O. S. Above all, he could
not know, unless told, WHY certain
things were done and why other
things were not done. 1t is purposed
TO tell us what the A. L. +. tried
to do, what it didn't do, whac it would
have done, and what it actually did
do, and to illustrate it all by actually
covering the whole fields, so ia" as

Vast Activities Conducted by 1000
 Corps In United States s.: Future Plane,

New -(SpeciaD-The annual budget of the Salvation Army, contain ing detailed and comprehensive state ment of the cost of maintaining it's va ried<activities throughout the United States, has been issued from National Headquarters, 122 West Fourteenth street The statistics show why 1t is necessary for the Salvation Army to go before the American people in the week of May 1e to 26 and ask them to contribute S13,OOo,OOo to its Home Service Fund.
 There are 939 corps and outposts of the Salvation Army in the United States. The cost of maintaining these is $2, ,6S5,CAO. The maximum income which these corps may expect from collections fn meetings, contributions of members and other outside contri- buttons is S715, 900, making the net to- tai cost of supporting the corps S1,- e7O,oOO
 The cost of maintaining divisional and provincial headquarters. which su- pervise the work of the local corps, will be, according to the budget, S530- GOO.
 Besides the work of supervising the local headquarters, the provincial and divisional headquarters are in charge of several of the Salvation Army's largest activities, including the opera .tion of fresh air camps for children. relief and employment bureaus and the provincial bands.
 Under the heading of national and territorial obligations the Salvation Army includes the expenses of main taining what are among its best known Institutions, those which may be group ed under the general name of "social work" For this purpose the Army wants st,27o.OO0.
 The pension fund budget is $4OO 900.
 The Salvation Army has determined on the erection of many new buildings for social work in the future. The building program will require expendi- lures of s1 ,s70,OO0.
 The remainder of the amount sought for the Home Service Fund is for corps, divisional and provincial build ings and a small contingent fund. Details of the Salvation Armyss ac- I Lne OU1tcu 0tdlcS lOl tn0 last year show how remarkable is the scope of the Army's endeavors and what vast numbers of people it serves. For instance. the Army maintains sev- enty-fve hotels for men and women. Last year 1,65e,52S persons found sleeping accommodations in these. Beds were supplied for 127 ,Sss chill dren in the Army's four children's homes in the same period, while 48,- 619 children were sheltered in the slum nurseries In the industrial homes beds were supplied for 1.742,s15.

HOUSE POULTRY
COMFORTABLY

Comfortable quarters should be fur
nished the pullets as soon as they are
ready to start laying. The poultry
house Is both the home Of the hen and
the factory where winter eggs are pro-
duced. Unless it provides suitable llv-
ing and working conditions the hen
cannot accomplish satisfactory results,
says T. B. Townsley Of the University
Of Missouri college of agriculture.
Comfort is the important essential Of
a poultry house. To provide comfort
the house must be dry, well lighted
and well ventilated and have sufficient
floor space to furnish exercise by
scratching. It must also contain Sleep
ing quarters that are clean, we'll ven
tilated and yet free from drafts. All
these conditions can be met in one
room, thus economizing in the expense
Of building.
Ventilation in poultry house is Sc
cured by leaving the south side rela-
lively open and making the other sides
tight. This provides plenty Of fresh
air without drafts. Where possible,
light should be admitted from all
sides. This prevents dark corners and
eliminates the nuisance of having the
litter all scratched to one side, which
occurs when light is secured from only
one direction. Exercise Is insured by
keeping the floor covered with several
inches Of straw, and feeding all grain
In this litter. The roosting quarters
should be compact and comfortable
They can be made easy to clean By
placing all roosts on a level at the
north side of the house and by arrang
ing platform underneath the roosts
to catch the night droppings.
