"Those are the things for which we
are going to pay with the Fifth-and
last-Liberty Loan" Mr.. Franklin ex-
planned at meeting of Liberty Loan
county chairmen in this city.
"That is what l mean when l say
that this money you are going to raise
through the things already bought
with the credit of it's paying for
the saving of half a million Ameri-
can lives.
"The speed and bravery of the
American 'dough-boy' affected the
German on the front line more than 1t
did the men at German general head
quarters; but the fact that America
had ten tons of mustard gas ready for
shipment in 1919, to every ton that
Germany had; the fact that we were
going to have tank on the front line
for every IS feet of the line in 1919;
the fact that we would have thou
sands of batteries of guns where we
did not have single one in 1918
those facts had an influence on the
German General Staff
"And, far from that money, those
millions and billions of dollars wasted
in an unnecessary preparation, l feel
that the fact that the money was spent
and that that enormous output of
munitions was ready, was the con-
trolling factor in the weakening of
the German General Staff, and that
1t caused their message to the Kaiser
that they were beaten, and that he
must sue for peace. And the way 1
see it is that this money, instead of
being wasted, can be written down as
having saved the lives of hundreds of
thousands Of American men who
would have been sacrificed had the
war continued another year.
'T do not believe that we are going
to be troubled with this loan. / look
for at least 100000 subscribers to
the next loan.
1--WE must let the people of the
United States know why there is q
Fifth Loan, what the money went for,
what 1t did-and that is the most i'm
portant part of it, what 1t did. We
must tell them that it brought back
two or three OF four or five hundred
thousand safe, live American boys,
instead of having them buried in
France. And cannot conceive Of
the American people failing to respond
to that kind Of an appeal"

WOMEN 10 SIGN PETITIONS FOR
 LEAGUE

4 nation wide campaign for the immediate ratification of the Peace Treaty was launched yesterday at a meeting of the Women's Non-Par- tisan Committee for the League of Nations, held at the Bijou Theatre. New Horw.
 Announcement was made that ar rangements are being made where by thousands of women who desire to see the Senate pass favorab1y on the treaty may have an opportunity of signing monster petitions to be sen: to the Senate.
 Mrs. J. Borden Hartman, chair man of the executive committee, said that the campaign is intended to lasT ten days and that teIegrams had been sent to representative women in all the States asking their cooperation day included Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catherine M. Davis, Mrs, Raymond Brown, and Mrs. Hartman.
 The greatest question before the American people is the decision con- corning the League of Nauons,'' says the appeal sent out by the com 1aittee. Its adoption is the hope of the world. Women are part of the American people and the peoples opinion is our soy ereign. Therefore we appeal to the women of America to make known their conclusions concerning the League of Nations, at Washington
 If Senator Ledge had gone to Paris and brought back with him covenant we who are not partisians would have supported the covenant of Lodge just as we support the covenant President Wilson brought back" Mrs. Catt declared. Tt is nor a perfect instrument and if it were perfect we would not know it''
 There is no more bitterness ex- pressed today toward the covenant, said Mrs. Gait than there was ex- pressed against the Constitution when it was up for adoption.

opathic eel salts, ferrum phos. 6x tablets, every half hour until the precipitation begins and then every two hours until the fever is all gone. To prevetn bad after-effects. you will need another combination of the homeopathic cell salts four times a day for a week at least. Also, if you value your future health more than you do the small amount of time you will lose from work, stay in bed for a few days. At least stay in doors, keep warm and have plenty of fresh pure air
 Prevention lies in right thinking, eating, of the right kind of food, absolute freedom from constipation and keeping warm and dry. If the feet or any part of the body get wet, keep active until a change of cloth ing can be had or if necessary in order to be dry and warm, get to bed while the clothes are dried by the fire. Do not attempt to dry the wet clothes while on your body. A good big cupful of hot ginger tea is an excellent thing to take at night if you feel chilly or as though you had taken cold Few families that have a full set of the Home Health club books are at all likely to suf- fer an attack of the flu this coming winter.
 I shall again send out many thou sands of the leaflet giving more de- tailed directions for home treatment fer fIue to all who desire it.

PRESENTS WORK OF LIT TIE
 WANDERERS

In order to make Bridgeport know more of the work of the New Eng land Home for Little Wanderers, which has headquarters in Boston and branch headquarters in the Se- curity building, this city, Mrs. Horace s. Wilmot, one of the members of the board of directors, opened her home last night to a representative group when she presented Miss M L. Beattie, assistant to pr. Knight, who is the head of t-e organization.
 Tracing the o~ga anization back to the Civil War days, when orphans were principally taken care of by the organization, Miss Beattie told of the gradual increase in the volume of the philanthropic work and it's present aims in reaching the very poor chiI- dren of a community and offer them all the necessities that go to make children happy and useful citizens at maturity. The child's contact with life is maintained through the schools. church and club work, all of which tend to develop him.
 Miss Beattie noted that in the old Massachusetts law of 1735, poverty was the only cause or removing a child from its environment Not un- til 1925 was 1t possible to remove a child from cruelty and neglect. The work now being done by the organi- Zation is commendable and of great aid to a city.
 Judge Paul L. Miller, chairman of the Fairfield county work, presided at the meeting and introduced the speaker. Bridgeport's experiences in the work were briefly given and the speaker also told of numerous incl dents connected with the work.

 Flu Prevention-From all sources of public health departments there have been sent out various notices and warnings to the effect that the flu would be with us again this year or the coming winter.
 During the fall and early winter of 1918 I gave a practical outline Of treatment that saved all those that put into practice the simple meth ods of precaution described. Since then I have been confirmed in the belief expr essed in a later article that much of the fatal character of the ailment was due to fear.
 Fear and the next thing to it worry-generate one of the most deadly poisons and when hate Is ad- ded to fear as it was during the war, the combination is hard to overcome with medicine. The first thing to about and be prepared and un- afrad.
 When conditions were at the worst and the boys were dying at the Great Lakes Naval Training Sta tion, I wrote the physician in charge and told him of the simple herb otnt- ment that had saved every case of threatened pneumonia among the Home Health club people and I even offered to make up for him, free of charge, enough of the ointment to treat one thousand cases. but I got only ap olite note saying that they had the situation well in hand but would call attention of the su- perior officers to my letter. The poor boys kept on dying at the same terrible rate for weeks, but no call was made upon me for the sane and safe old grandmother's remedy that would have saved them.
 Many of you have already gather ed the herbs for your winters sup ply and many others have bought the ointment from others that make it, and you feel safe. At the the first sign of sore throat or fever, rub it into the skin of che throat thor oughly, also over the chest and un- der the arms Cover with piece of flannel. or better still, piece of oiled silk.

ETIQUETTE

A WIDOWS ENGAGEMENT 8 widow becomes engaged does she still retain the marriage and engage ment ring of her former marriage and if so on what finger does she wear them?"
 (Answer.) That Is a matter to be decided wholly by the woman herself and by the man she Is to marry. Some widows remove their first we'd ding ring as well as their first en- gagement ring when they accept au engagement ring from a second hus- band-to-be. In other cases, women have continued to wear both their first and their second wedding rings on the same finger. I can find no set rule on this point in any of my books on etiquette.
