three of the great powers, probab V
would call meeting of the league of

THRIFT WEEK is
OCTOBER 6 TO ~
Special Features Are Planned Tor
Several Towns in
Vermont

St Adams, Oct. 4-Throughout
the country the week of October TO
.12 will be observed as Thrift Week
Plans are already under way in Yer
mont for special features in various
towns. In some sections the old tag
day system will be used, giving a tag
with every thrift stamp sold. Com
munity sings will be the attraction in
other towns, and the movies with
their excellent facilities and their pub
lie spirited managers, have also agreed
to assist in the campaign Details are
being worked cut as rapidly as posst
bic. and it is expected that the week
will be devoted to an intensive cam
paign. From the headquarters of the
first federal reserve district has been
sent out the following notice;
The war is over, but the victory Is
not yet won. Europe is suffering from
four years of underfeeding. In this
country the symptoms OF what Is
known as discomfort point directly to
hunger-not hunger for food in Amer
lea so much as for the contentedness
which can come cnly from normal con
ditions,
The basic trouble is simple-there
is not in all the world food enough or
cloth enough or enough of anything
necessary to simple living to enable eV
eryone to live as he or she lived before
the war The way to solve the problem
is almost equally obvious, Everybody
each one OF you, has got to see that
nothing is wasted. Only by conserv-
ing every resource can the nation hast
en- to return TO normal conditions.
THE people of the United states re-
sponded to the appeals and suggest
ions of the food administration, as a
war measure, in way that showed
better than almost anything else how
deep and how true is the spirit OF
idealism which has dominated the
country The national government,
through this committee, appeals to you
individually now to continue the eco
Monies of food and clothing and
money, 1t begs of you to do this, not
as war measure, and not primarily for
the sake of our national prosperity,
but for the sake of your own selfish
welfare. 1t is the only way in which
the cost of living can be brought back
to lower average. 1t is the only
way in which the industries of this
country and the rest of the world
can catch up with the dead loss of
the past four years. Until they can
llpply the normal demand under nor
NAL conditions, labor and all other con
ditions must be unsettled. For your
own sake therefore as well as for the
sake of everyone else in America and
Europe be careful and thrifty

Washington, Oct 5.-The favorable
trend CT President Wilson's condition
continued today, and there were indi
cations that those attending him
thought he might be definitely on the
road to recovery.
After the best nights sleep he has
had since he was taken i'll, ten days
ago, the President was in such god
spirits that Rear Admiral Cary t.
Grayscn, his personal physician, had
difficult ty in persuading him to remain
in bed. The physician insisted on this
point however, and indicated he had
no intention of permitting the patient
to be on his feet until the change
in his condition was more decisive.
Although the days bulletin did not
record any marked Improvement, it
contained details of the Presidents
general condition, which DR.. Grayson
seemed to gard as hopeful signs 1t

his condition, ii is favorable. His ap-
petite is improving, and he is sleeping
better

That Mr.. Wilson was able to eat and
sleep with more regularity was consid
cred particularly promising, since
these are the two most important re-
quisites for cure of the complications
which followed his attack of nervous
exhaustion His digestive organs have
been sensitive for years, and his res
piratory system weakened by an at
tack of influenza asst spring is said
to have interferred, during his pres
ent illness, with his ability to sleep
soundly
For the first time since he became
ILL., the President now has rested easily
for two consecutive nights, and the re
guilt was reflected as soon as he awoke
this morning in a desire to get back
to his desk When DR.. Grayson for
bade that, Mr.. Wilson is said to have
asked that stencgrahper be called
so he could dictate scme letters, but
tho physician headed off the request
by reminding the President that it was
Sunday, and he was good Presbyter
