Russia Amazing The Bolshev Took Control Most The
Camp Fire Girls are Helping
Children's Bureau

Eight hundred babies weighed and
measured in six days is the record of
one group of Camp Fire Girls who
helped in the weighing and measur-
ing test conducted by the Children's
Bureau, United States Department
of Labor. The Camp Fire Girls also
did all the clerical work of filling out
three record blanks for each one of
the 800 babies tested. In the entire
campaign over 100000 American
babies were weighed and measured
This is another instance of the
generous cooperation given by the
children's organization in the many
campaigns which have been conduct
ed since the United States entered the
war. The Camp Fire Girls have pro-
missed their help in the back-to-school
drive which is also being conducted
by the Children's Bureau and whose
purpose is to return to the schools
the many boys and girls who have left
too early to enter industry.

Frank Shcrburne TO Change Owe,
Lunch Room to Night Service

Frank Sherburne, who runs the
popular lunch-room and restaurant at
the station, is to change over the
manner of his service somewhat and
give more attention to catering to
night trade. This will in no way les
sen the quality of the service and
food furnished during the day, but
will result in increased force to
handle the night business.
Late snppers are to be made a
speciality and a more pretentious
menu will be served after seven
o'clock to hungry st. Johnsbury
souls. There win be special sup
per served after the dance tonight,
with specials tomorrow night and
Sunday. The increased force will
permit of no more waiting for orders
by folks who patronize this popular
place in the wee small hours. The
public is invited to try out the new
system and come to the old stand for
late eats.

Needed III

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2S-The
President will not call Congress ) in
extra session until after his second re-
turn from Europe, which, it is ex-
pected will possibly be as late as
June.
A definite statement to this effect
was made late Tuesday Afternoon to
Senator Martin of Virginia, chairman
of the Committee on Appropriations.
Elder statesmen on both the Demo-
cratic and Republican side had urged
Senator Martin to ascertain, If pos
sible, from the White House just
what the President proposed doing
about calling an extra session. Sem
ator Martin went to the White House
with Senator Simmons, Chairman Of
the Finance Committee. They told
the President of the jam of legislation
and made it plain that the appropria-
ton bills and certain other vital meas
ures could be passed before the end
Of the session if the Republicans
would abandon all tactics of obstruc-
ton. The President was told that the
Republicans, had been asserting that
completed his mission, and that he
had no idea how long that would be.
The Presidents decision to call no
; extra session before his return thfes#
CONSERVATION into the ranks OF the
Republicans, who have been counting
upon an early assembling of the new
Congress, which will be Republican,
planning to launch Investigations Of
the conduct of the war and carry
along running fire of debate during
the meeting of the peace delegates
at Paris Just what effect the Pres
ident's decision will have on their
plans in problematical. Democratic
leaders say that if the Republican
leaders do not abandon their tactics
of obstruction several of the big
supply bills and other important leg
islation will be held up until after
the return of the President from
France. ssse

fell out for formation where one was
found to be concealing his attire of
pajamas under an overcoat and num-
erous other funny incidents occurred.

possessed of unbounded pep, was the
hit of the evening, leading the man.

Especial to the Caledonian)
BURLINGTON, Feb. 28-The Red
Cross canteen being conducted at the
Union station in this city served 623
men during the past week. Nine gal
Ions of coffee, 197 sandwiches, 205
packages of matches, $500 cigarettes,
Ala chocolate bars, 155 post cards,
627 sticks of gum, 119 doughnuts, "a
magazines, 25 full meals and one
lunch, is the record of the canteen in
the past week, ending Saturday even
ing. There are II active canteen
workers at the present time. The
women take their turns at serving,
with morning and afternoon shifts.
The canteen has had little publicity,
and it is safe to say that only a
small number of the $4,000 popula-
ton of Burlington knows anything
about the service.
A soldier steps from the train. He
finds he has to stay in town over
night, or over the weekend. The
canteen servers set before him an ap-
petizing meal, or lunch, or whatever
it is he desires or needs. Then they
direct him to the War Camp Com
munity Service house, known as the
Soldiers and Sailors home, just a
short distance from the station. There
he spends a comfortable night, can
write letters, read magazines, or hear
music on the talking machines, OF
make music of his own on a piano. A
nominal fee is charged. There is
nearly everything at the club to
amuse him.

Dear aunt and uncle:
This is the first of the year so will
begin it right by paying up some of
my letters I owe. / have from time
to time received papers from you and
letters, but owing to the lack of time
and paper, never had the opportunity
to write as much as ! should other
wise.
We are staying in little town on
the Mosel river, not very far from
Coblenz. We are staying in an old
schoolhouse. It is quite moderate
here as far as weather is concerned.
We had a little snow Christmas
morning. / don't think there can ever
be much snow here because there are
neither sleds or sleighs of any kind
that have seen. 1t must be a very
pretty place in summer, but of course
the leaves are brown and dirty. The
banks on both sides of the river are
very steep, reminding one of the
Crawford Notch, only not quite SO
rocky. The country is famous for its
wine and the grapes grow on these
steep banks. The people here seem
very friendly toward us, but Of course
we are not allowed to associate with
them, except on business matters.
/ realize the joy the people at home
must have felt when they heard the
Armistice was signed. We were pleas
ed too, because we were going to-
| wards the front at the time. All we
can do now is to hope for an early
return home. / told my people in q
letter home yesterday, that / wanted
to get there in time to eat some gooo
old Vermont sugar. Probably some
things have changed since / left home
I lhow / have. You probably never
stopped to realize that we don't fine
