Board May Fix Tax
Rate This Afternoon

Action may be taken at the reg
ular meeting of the City School
board late this afternoon fixing the
tax rate for the 1919-1920 school
wear. It was predicted in official Cir
cles before the session that there
probably will be little opposition TO
a motion to make the rate 13 IL
mills, an increase of 2 mills over the
present charge.
1t was brought out at a special
Board late this afternoon fixing the
week, at which all the members eX-
cept one were present, that a deficit
of $4,000 will exist next year un-
less more revenue is provided at the
beginning of the session. BY raising
the rate mills this deficit can be
avoided it was shown.
Other business listed included
final approval of the budget for the
coming year; revision of rules to re-
move inequalities in teachers salary
sch hedule; election of Edna M. Mad
der as regular teacher; election of
Mrs. Sarah II. Billow, Mrs. Anna G..

to-day with what is left of the bal
loon.
Though the "blimp's" crew was
without information as to her con-
dition they declared there was no
possibility of repairs being made
here to fit the ship" for her pro-
jected transatlantic fight.
Finding of the runaway balloon
so close to shore led aviation Off
cials to believe either that the craft
had ascended to great height and
burst with the air pressure against
its sides lightened, or that the pull
on the rip cord which Lieut.. Charles
c. Little risked his life to operate
was sufficient, though the cord broke
in his hand, to start dehation of the
gas bag.
Reports by Wireless
The Edwards reported by wireless
to the cruiser Chicago, headquarters
of the temporary American aviation
base, that she had picked up the bal
loon S5 miles at sea, where the Brit
ish cargo ship was standing by
awaiting the arrival of the rescue
vessel.
The War Nepigon's captain ad-
vised the Chicago that he sighted
the dirigible on the water last night
while his vessel was outward bound
for the British port.

terday. Commander Towers said
too far out into the harbor and
added that he thought they would
have made a good start IL they had
attempted to rise nearer shore. Com
mander Towers denied that the NC
had been damaged, but said she
was towed in by q motorboat to
save her engines for another try
to-day.
The NC-4 alighted in the harbor
at 7.0S o'clock last night (New
Foundland time) after a fight from
Halifax, a distance of 5S7 land
miles in six hours and twenty three
minutes actual flying time. The
seaplane floated on the surface of
the water for two hours and twenty
three minutes when forced to alight
eighteen miles from Halifax by one
of her engines failing. The NC-4
maintained an average altitude of
$500 feet during the Halifax
Trepassey fight.
The crew of the NC-4 owes IFS
chance for an even start from here
with the sister planes to the fact
that the NC-1 and NC-3 refused to
rise from the water in the afternoon
The NC-1, commanded by Lieu
tenant Commander P. n. L. Billinger
TAXED off down the harbor at 5:O4
p. m, Halifax time, (4:04 New York
time), hoping for a getaway. The
NC-3, Commander John H. Towers
flagship. followed 1S minutes later.
A short time later, however, both
reappeared and coming to a stop
near the mother ships began, ap-
parently, to discharge excess fuel.
The appearance of the NC-4, which
had been sighted shortly after the
NC-1 and NC-3 TAXED down the
narbor, was believed to have infiu-
cnced Commander Towers in his de-
cision to postpone the hop off" so
that all three planes might start to-
gether.
NC-4 Examined
The NC-4 was apparently un-
harmed by her flight from Halifax
but an examination was made las
night to determine whether any re-
pairs are necessary before the "big
jump"
The NC-4 left Halifax this morn

Daily Health Talks
A Word About the Kidneys
BY DOCTOR WATSON

People are easily frightened when
they think something is the matter
with their lungs or heart, and well
they may be; but few people under
stand the dangers of diseased kid
neys. These organs have a duty of
vital importance to perform, and if
they are diseased, there is no tell
ing how or where the symptoms
may appear. The kidneys are filters,
and when they are healthy they re-
move the poisons from the blood
and purif it. When the kidneys are
diseased, the poisons are spread
everywhere, and one of these poi
sons is uric acid. The uric acid is
carried all through the system and
deposited in various places, in the
form of urate salts-in the feet,
ankles, wrists and back-often form :
ing bags under the eyes. Sometimes
the resulting trouble is called rheu-
matism, lumbago, sciatica and back
ache. Finally, come stone in the
bladder, diabetes and Brights dis
ease.
DIR. Pierce, of Buffalo, n. Y, in
recent years, discovered that GER
tain combination of remedies would
dissolve uric acid (urate salts) in
the system. He found this combina-
tion to be harmless, so that he made
it up in tablets, of double strength,
and called them Anuric Tablets.
They dissolve uric acid in the hu-
man system as hot coffee dissolves
sugar. If you have uric acid trou-
bles, don't delay in taking Anuric
Tablets, which can be secured in the
drug stores. You can write DR..
Pierce, too, and he will tell you what
TO eat and how to live so that more
uric acid will not form in your sys-
tenn. DR.. Pierce will not charge for
this advice.

of the naval planes might make the

Weather prospects early to-day
were favorable and the work of
overhauling the NC-4 was progress

"Undiluted Americanism" the Mesa

The final echoes of the guns of the great war are now
dying away into silence and the peoples settling
down again into the pleasant paths of peace And so
doing it behooves to take to heart the vital lessons
this supreme world-tragedy has taught us. Among
the most important of these is the necessity of sodar
ty of community of aims and ideals of absolute unan-
unity. The has proved over and over again the
inherent weakness of the house that is divided against

land thirty minutes later at Storey
Head for repairs to the oil and gas
lines.
Mechanics who worked all night
on the NC-4 were still busy this
morning with engine and propeller
tests, hoping to have the plane ready
to start for the Azores this afternoon
with the NC-1 and NC-3.
AS a result of the failure of the
NC-1 and NC-3 to take the air when
they got under way for the Azores
yesterday it was expected that the
"take-off" to-day would be attempt
ed inside the harbor. The rough
seas at the mouth of the bay dashed
over the heavily laden planes, chill
ing the aviators to the bone and
threatening to play havoc with the
steering apparatus.
Coastwise weather to-day was ia
vorable for the flight, clear skies and
