HUN AUTOMOBILE
 DEALERS BUYING
 ABANDONED CARS

With American Forces 1n Ger many, Sept. -(Correspondence of the Associated Press) )-Twelve hun dred motor trucks abandoned by the German army in the area taken over by the Americans as part of the arnlistice material were sold recent ly to a syndicate of German automo- bile dealers.
 The sale of surplus property of the American army at the Antwerp base which also has been completed brought to the government $l4,000,- 900, most of the goods disposed of to the Belgian government, bringing a better price than could have been obtained in the United States.
 By the sale of a, part of surplus stocks of the American Forces in Germany, much of which was sold to German civilians, the sum of $11,- 100000 was realized. Among the material sold recently to German dealers was 10000 pounds of can dy of a kind not particularly in de- mand among the American soldiers

HOW TRANSFERS WILL
 WORK IN ZONES

Supplemental to the official an- nouncement of the proposed new zone fare system to be R+1t into effect h this state, 1t was announced yester- day at the general offices of the Con- necticut Company at New Haven that an important change will be made in the transfer system.
 When the zone schedule goes into effect, sometime before the end of the year, It will be possible to secure q transfer from the conductor of a, car, but this trensfer will merely entitIc the bearer to ride through the first zone after the change of cars for the basic rate of about two and one-half cents a zone, Instead of paying the six cent fare that Is to be the initial charge on all cars. The following was given as an illustration:
 IT a man is making a trip from Manchester to a point beyond City Hall, Hartford, as for instance Wind sor avenue, he will receive Q transfer at the transfer point, City Hall. Upon presenting this transfer to the con- ductor on the Windsor avenue car, the passenger will be required to pay the regular zone fare of two cents, or three cents, instead of the six cent fare that he would have to pay if he did not have the transfer
 Asked about the statement of President Thomas N. McCarter of the Public Service Railway Company of New Jersey that the zone scheme had failed on that company's lines, an official at the general offices of the Connecticut Company said yesterday that the experiment in New Jersey could have no bearing on the schemes success in Connecticut, be- cause the schedules were entirely diff ferent
 Tn the first place." he said, their initial fare is only three cents, while ours is to be six, and their rate for each additional zone is two cents, while ours will be about two and one-ha1f. Previously they had been receiving a flat fare of seven cents in the cities, and one cent additional for transfers, and so. by making their initial rate only three cents, they denied themselves four cents on every ride Inside the city limits. Their heaviest riding comes in two particu- lar zones- Under the old system, they could collect cents for these two zones. Unde the new scheme, all they received vas five cents, de priving themselves of nine cents for every passenger that used the cars for that trip. We are confident that there will be no such failure in Con- necticut. Neither do we anticipate such trouble as they had in New Jer- sey ship workers.
 We are planning an intensive publicity campaign to educate the public, as well as our own employees. on points of the zone plan. There are so many minor details yet to be worked out that we are unable to say when the system will be put into eff feet, other than that it will be be- fore the end of the present year.

LAND OWNERS SELLING
 LARGE ESTATES

London. Sept 17-(Correspon- dence of the Associated Press)- England is changing hands because taxes are so high landed proprietors cannot afford to own and maintain their estates, according to accumulat- ing evidence of the past few days.
 '"The crushing taxation which has resulted from the war; said the mo- tice sent by the Duke of Rutland to his tenants, coupled with the great rise in the price of all commodities and labor, have placed such burdens on my property as to compel me to largely diminish the size of my es- tate.'' The Duke of Rutland sold his Harby estates in the vale of Bel voir much to the regret of his ten ants.
 Brigadier General William Strong, of Thorpe Hill, Peterborough, is an other landed proprietor who is part g with his property. He explained to the villagers that he regretted to do so, but as one-third of his income now went in taxation, it was impos- sible for him to maintain the hall and the estate.
 Property of this class is being bought by the new1y-rich who made their fortunes during the war, but in almost every instance each estate is sold to a number of persons rath- CT than being taken by one.

THE REASON WHY
Why Does 8 Barber's Pole Have
 Stripes?

In early years the barber not only cut hair and shaved people, but he was also q surgeon. He was a. sur geon to the extent that he bIed peo- pie. In early times our knowIedga Of surgery was practically limited to blood letting. A great many of the ailments were attributed to too much blood in the body, and when any thing got wrong with a man or wo- man, the first thing they thought of was to reduce the amount of blood in the body by taking some of it out
 The town barber was the man who did this for people and his pole represented the sign of his busi- ness.
 The round ball on the top which was generally gi1ded represents the harbering end of the business. It stood for the brass basin which the barber used to prepare lather for shaving customers
 The pole itself represents the staff which people were having blood taken out of their bodies held during the operation The two spiral rib bons, one red and one white, which are painted spiraIy on the pole, rep resented the bandages. The white one stood for the bandage which was put on before the blood was taken out and the red one the bandage which was used for binding up the wound when the operation was com pleted.

STAFF PLANNED 28O,OO) ARMY,
 SAYS WITNESS
Col. Palmer Tells Senators Military Men Didn't Want
 Measure of Gen. March.

Washington, Oct. II. - The War Departments army bill, providing for a standing American army of 576,- 900 men, was drafted upon specific orders from General March. chief of staff. after the general staff of the army had advanced an army of not more than 2S0.O00 men. Colonel John Nick. Palmer told the Senate Com mtttee on Military Affairs. The gen eral staff was not consulted on the bill. he said.
 Colonel Palmer said that he had helped write the departments meas ure, but that he believed an army of 2SO,000 men would be sufficient, if military training and a reserve of officers was provided.
 Colonel Palmer was with General Pershing and asserted the army com mander is preparing the organization plans for the American Expedition ary Forces, At the request of Gen eraI Pershing and under orders from the War Department, he said, he helped to prepare plans for post war army of not more than 2SO,O00 men. The War Department never asked that the plan be sent to Wash ington, he said.

PLAN PROGRAM FOR HEALTH AND
 CIVTCS STUDY

A comprehensive program of the study of health and civics has been mapped out by Superintendent of Schools S. J. Slawson and Assistant Superintendent Outright and this will be inaUgurated as soon as the course has been thoroughly explained to the teachers. For this purpose confer ences will start during the coming week when MT. Slawson will address a group of teachers at the Normal school and MT. Cortright will talk to another group at the Barnum school
 The course, suggested by govern ment officials who were active in the war, is suggested to overcome defects in the citizens of the country as re- vealed by the war. These were large ly matters of health and of next inn portance a failure to understand the form and objects of the governmental agencies.

WEat Makes a Cold Glass Crack If
 We Put Hot Water Into It?

Hot water will not always cause a cold glass to crack, but is very apt to, especially a thick glass. The very thin glasses will not crack. The test tubes used by chemists are made of very thin glass, and will not crack when hot liquids are poured into them
 When a glass cracks after you have poured a hot liquid into it, it does so because, as soon as the hot liquid is put in, the particles of glass which form the inside of the glass become heated and expand. They begin to do this before the particles which form the outside of the glass become heated. and in their efforts tn expand the inside particles of glass literally break away from the par ticles which form the outside, causing the crack. The same thing happens if you put cold water into a hot glass, excepting in this instance the inside particles of the glass con tract before the particles which form the outside of the glass have had time to become cool and do likewise. From The Book of Wonders.
