$4,000.

Vancouver. Wash.-The reports from
many parts of the United States that
some women of an adventurous nature
married soldiers in the high hopes that
the husbands would be killed and that
they would collect the insurance money
are based on fact, it is believed here.
A young woman, well dressed, went
TO the post Office recently and received
a letter. She opened, read and laugh
ed loudly. A man driving a machine in
which she rode downtown asked her
what was the good news. She aston
ished him by replying that her husband
had been killed and she would get the
$1,000 insurance.

dangerous and could not be used COM

The 100000 ga shells were brought
back from France on transport

in the interest of safety these were
taken 10 sea and disposed of under di-

Ultimately all of the poison gas in

Il get rid of a very valuable asset, and
il is not the plan To take all this gas
