BIRTHDAY OF HOWARD CROSBY BUTLER.
 NOTED ARCH HAEOIOGIST

Prof. Howard Crosby Butler, one of Americas foremost archaeoIogists, will celebrate his forty-seventh birth day today. It was Prof. Butler who headed the Princeton expedition sev- craI years ago to eNcavate at Sardis, and to find, if possible, the Temple of Zeus
 ssrdis, the capital of Croesus, was taken by Cyrus of Persia in 54S B. C., and burned by the Greeks in 499. OF the ruins Of the palace Alexander the Great built the magnificent temple of Zeus. Not far away, and in the same sacred enclosure, the temple of Artemis was founded. and this has already been completely uncovered by the Princeton investiga tors. An ancient coin. now in the British Mu- scum. shows the temple of Artemis and Zeus side by side
 Destroyed by Alexander, the city of Sardis was restored by the Romans, and was a. fiourishing metropolis un- der their rule. In the fifteenth cen tury it was taken by Tamerlane and utterly destroyed, and all that is left to mark the site of the once proud metropolis is a miserable village, named Sart. At the time of Tanner lanes orgy of destruction, however, the Greek temples had already been covered win the dust of ages.

 Regulation of Jitneys

 United States government, in the course of which there has been main tained labor exchanges in fourteen industrial centers of Connecticut The resources of these exchanges and the services of many men or women will be lost if effort is not made to re- tain them.
 The governor said that these ex- changes daily make a report on the condition of the labor market, the number of persons who need work. and provide the director Of the United states employment service with a complete survey of the labor field in the state. The Federal enpIoym ent service on the other hand is able to provide the state service with a sur vey' of conditions in other states. Through this cooperative effort men do not find it nescessary to travel from place to place seeking employ ment and the conditions elsewhere are known and labor may be supplied direct where needed or applicants prevented from going 20 places in which there is unemployment
 The governor said that labor ex-
 changes are a great factor in counter
 acting the effect of the saloon, as
 they discourage the tendency of re-
 turned soldiers and sailors to con-
 gregate in saloons to discuss more or
 less actual grievances.
 The governors communication was sent to the special committee which is conferring with the council of de- fense as to its future activities and 1 needs.
 The Federal employment service is ! jeopardized in it's existence by the failure of passage of the general de- ] fciency bill by congress.
 The bill to make specific compen- sation for loss of a toe. or finger un- der the workmen's compensation law was adversely reported as this pay ment is discretionary with the com 1 nissioners.
 The House adopted the Senate bill prohibiting the display of any flag or i emblem which might incite disorder. l and which originally was aimed at l the "red' flag.
 | The claims committee reported 1 against the petitions of Sidney Well 1 fish and Joseph Elias, both of whom are in prison for reimbursement of 1 S2,500 bonds given upon their origi- | nal arrest for stealing automobiles in 1 Fairfield county. Senator Dillo- for ] the committee, declared that both
 men were a bad set of thieves. Both were arrested and forfeited bonds.

WHITE SHOES.

Let's hope dem golden slippers we's gwine to wear may not deterior-
 ate in the celestial stock while wait
 ing for us to approach for our final
 fittings. In terrestrial shoe stores
 W hite canvas shoes have gone off like everything and have had all sorts
 of troubles Before a good solvent
 was available for cleaning the
 srnudges that accrue in manufacture
 from the hands of operatives they
 were touched up with a. nice, white
 paste. The smudges occurred despite
 the most stringent rules in regard to cleanliness. The operatives stood by
 their constitutional rights that cruel
 and unusual punishments are for
 bidden The dealers complained that shoes which were white when
 bought became spotted with brown in irregular splotches The cause was due to the use of white lead in the paste and to carrying the shoes
 in stock in the proximity of r0bber
 boots. of which the rubber, of course, had been vuIcanized with sulphur. Now white lead is so sensitive to suIphides that even a trade was enough to produce a lead compound
 which has a dirty brownish-b black color. The defect was remedied by the substitution of zinc white for white lead in the paste, but before long other complaints began to come in; the white shoes were turning pink. ! md pink they certainly were; with the color more generally distributed 1 than the previous black, but still 1 very irregular, and except for very special purposes there is a prejudice I ggainst pink shoes. Research brought out the fact that the manufacturer l had used rubber composition soles and that the maker of these had | availed himself of aniline oil as an aid to sulphur in vulcanizing. This l he should not have done, because, al- 1 though aniline dyes are harmless, the l untreated aniline is a mean poison. AhiIine oil has. also, the faculty of l turning bleached cotton goods pink. { The cure for pinllness was to use rub ! Der soles that had not been vuIYaniz- i ed with airline.

ENGLAND'S WAR MEDALS

This is the 103rd anniversary of the institution of the first of the modern war medals of Great Britain, the fla nous Waterloo medal. which was conferred upon every officer and sol dier present at that memorable vic tory over Napoleon.
 The Waterloo medal bears on one side a figure of Victory, copied fror, an old Greek coin, and on the other a bust of the Prince Regent, after ward George ". The distribution of this medal caused a great deal of dis satisfaction among those soldiers who had fought so valiantly against Spain It was sugges~3l in many quarter that similar medals be given to those who had t-ken part in the great battles of the Penfnsular cam paign, but the project was allowed to drop. It was not until 1847, when many of the veterans were dead, thai tardy justice was meted out by Queen Victoria Medals were then struck and distributed among the officers and men who had fought in all the great battles between 1793 and 1S14
 The next important war medal of Great Britain was issued in 1854, at the order of Queen Victoria. All of the heroes who took pert in the great battles of the Crimean war, including Balaklava, Sevastopol, 1nkerman and Alma, were rewarded with the Grim can medals.
 Since then war medals have been conferred upon those who have par ticipated in all of the important vic tories won by British arms. The most important distribution of medals was that following the conclusion of the contest with the Boers. There are in England still a few veterans of the Crimea entitled to wear the medals conferred upon them by Queen Vic toria, but a few years more vii probably see the last of them. By the time they have disappeared however. a vast multitude of nav medals will have been issued to those who fought through the conflIc' which has just ended.
 Perhaps the oldest English wal medal is the one which bears on one side e bust of Queen Elizabeth. and

HOW THE TANKS TOOK vAUx

"One of the most beautifully con ducted operations of the war from | military point of view was the American capture of Vaux," says Major-General Omar Bundy in Every, body's for March. '@The village of NauN lies in a hollow commanded by hills to the north, east and west and it was the objective of the battalion of the Ninth Infantry. The artillery for this attack was arranged with great care by Colonel BOwIey, who had succeeded General Chamberlaine in command of the artillery brigade
 For several hours a terrific fire was directed on Vaux. Gas shells in large numbers were fired into the woods north of Naux to prevent the Germans from sending reinforce ments through them. About noon of July first, when this fire of prepara- ton had ceased the infantry advanc- ed, followed closely the protecting ar tillery barrage.
 The whole affair was beautifully conducted. Each subordinate con- mander knew directly the part that he was to play in the game. There was no hitch. The location and profb- able strength of the enemy, the num- Der of his machine guns and trench
 
 found. the amount of barbed wire and other obstacles to be encountere'l--- all these things were known in ad- vance and were met with singular precision. Within. a short time after they went over the top our men were closing with the enemy.
 ''- 1ng before evening, word was re- "eived from Major BOuton that Vaux with several hundred prisoners, had Heen taken and that he had advanced to the railroad east of the town. The Fwenty-Third Infantry had been equally successful and had attained it's objective. When night came, the Germans counter-attaeked against the I'wenty-Thtrd Irfantry. but complete ly failed, and t.e attacking party was either killed or taken prisoners Our own loss in this advance was small. most of the casualties having occurred from enemy artillery fire during the preceding night and morning. while the assembled troops were waiting to attack. We took 500 prisoners, with numbers of machine guns and other material

There is TO inscription to 3s.di- cate for what service this medal was awarded but it is supposed that ic was conferred upon the favorites of Queen Bess after the defeat of the Spanish armada. Many special medals were given by EIizabeth's successors. Charles I. gave such recognition to Robert Welch an Irish soldier, in 1642. Cromwell issued number of medals which bore his eff figy, and some of these were given to common soldiers, but there was 70 general recognition of the services of the Tommies until the Waterloo medal of 1S1f.
