SHOvEL|NG SNOW

All Hands at Work Clearing Away
Wreck of Worst Blizzard Since
Eighteen, Eighty Eight
(Associated Pr~ss)

New York. Feb. 7.-Snow bound
New York marshalled it's forces to-
day in a prodiguous effort to extri-
cate itself from the paralyzing grip
the storm approaching the blizzard
of 1888. All except vitality necessary
truck traffic has been suspended for
three days. The large department
stores have turned over their trucks
to help cart the snow away. The
street cleaning department has ten
thousand shovelers at work. The trac-
ton company is struggling grimly to
restore traffic. Many outlying towns
are isolated. and trains are hours
late The coal and food situations are
brighter today. The newspapers are
hard hit by the news print shortage.

work, what is he going to do? Can
he Immediately go to some other firm
and say, Here, / want position and
| want so much money to start with 2"
I sincerely doubt it. Now take this
same young man and give him three
years training along some certain
line and see what happens. The whole
thing spells two words Education
and Preparation"
Here are some of the things that
can be accomplished in the training
of the soldiers. First, you can take
up a business course and learn busi-
ness economy which includes type
writing, shorthand. bookkeeping and
business methods. Secondly, the
radio course is an appealing one and
one in which the graduates are ia
great demand.
Engineering schools are handled
by men who have made their mark in
the world and when soldier grad
yates from the school of engineering
he can be as independent as hog on
ice. One of the big features of the
present day modern improvements is
the air service. These schools are
open to all and you can take a tip
from me. man who is a good f1ier
can command his own salary and the
time is drawing near when the de-
mand for fliers is going to be greater
than the supply.
The medical profession as well as
the dental departments will appeal to
some. The veterinary corps also Of
fers exceptional advantages.
Electrical engineering is also
taught as we'll as all branches of con-
struction work To those who wish to
learn the cooks and bakers trade the
advantages are unsurpassed.
Now take these all into considera-
tion and just figure for yourself what
you can do. Here is the proposition
in nutshell: suppose you are tired
OF working in small way and want
to attain an education which will al
low you to advance to a higher place.
Well you go off to some university
and pay large sum of money as tut
tior fee, you must pay your own ex-
penses and be cooped up in one set of
buildings for a period of several years
and the chances are that they won't
be as healthy as the outdoor life of
the army. When you have completed
the course you have seen one city
alone, of course you know that one
well. but wouldn't you like to see some
other part of the world?
Now here is the army gag: You
enlist fo ra period of one or three
years and take up some branch of
work that you would at the university
and while yo uare learning to better
prepare yourself for the battle of su-
| premacy, you are paid a salary of
! from $50 to $105 per month and are
given the best of medical attention as
we'll as the best of everything to eat.
| You are furnished with clothing and
! in the meantime plenty of exercise is
: readily to be found so that the phys
| ical as well as the mental man will
not be overlooked.
Now if you like games or sports,
they are to be found in plenty and all
kinds of relation from the tedious
| task of text books is also to be had.
Nothing is overlooked in the training
Of the soldier He is made a man
among men and when he returns to
civilian life he can go to his former
! employer and tell him just what he
wants.

None of the houses are vacant, and an average of fifteen applications day are placed on an already lengthy waiting list''. The greater number of these applications, to buy or to rent at prices considerably higher than the original schedules, are re- ceived from those who already are residents of Bridgeport, but who live in other sections of the city in houses of older type, and to which, in the majority of cases, the newer houses are far superior.
 In fact, there is no comparison be- tween the artistic houses that char acterize the model villages, and the relics of ore-war days in which a certain proportion of the popula- ton of Bridgeport still are compelled to live-because Of the popularity of the newer houses, and the fact that the demand is far greater than the supply.

HOW BRIDGEPORT
 SOLVED TRYING HOUSING PROBLEM

Bridgeport, Conn, the city of most rapid growth during the War, solved it's housing problem of that trying period by the adoption of methods that brought splendid results, and that might be adopted to advantage in other cities now suffering from a shortage of housing.
 One of the principal features of the Bridgeport housing plan was the investment of $1,000,000 in the Bridgeport Housing Company, organ ized to build houses for wase-earn- CTS exclusively, by fifty manufact- uring merchants, public service cor porations, and bankers of that city, all of whom agreed to limit the re- turn on their investment to six per cent.
 This Housing Company has sup piled houses for 1882 families or G., FPS persons, and mas made it possi- ble for wage-earners to purchase thelr own homes at low prices.
 Twelve groups of houses of this type have been erected in different parts of the city-near the factories and transportation lines.
 Of these twelve groups. three were built independently by the Reming- ton Arms and the Union Metallic Cartridge Company, in the East End section, all of which srnce have been transferred to the East End Realty Co.,, the huge Remington Company plant meantime having been leased by Joseph P. Day as broker for the General Electric Co.,, which soon will add 15,0oO or more employees to the working population of Bridgeport.
 These houses, which are fully oc- cupied, were not included in the Ed son-Remington real estate deal ne gotiated by. Joseph P. Day and are located in the Boston avenue district which is the route of local trolley car line, and of Bridgeport "Jitney' service.
 The remaining nine groups of houses were erected by the Associat- ed Manufactur in the Bridgeport Housing Company, and by the Gov ernment through the United States Housing Corporation, cooperating with the Bridgeport Housing Com pany.
 The Remington Company built houses for $50 families; the govern I ment, with the assistance of the ! Bridgeport Housing company, houses for SS9 families; and the Bridgeport Housing Company, isseIf, houses for 243 families.
 Classifying the houses by type, two family houses were built for $50 fam
 flies; group dwellings for 558 families
 apartments for 419 families, and sin
 gle family houses for 75 families. From the point of view of the busi-
 ness man-the investor-in other
 cities, who may be asked to cooper ate in solving, the local housing prob-
 lem, just as the manufacturers, busi-
 ness men and bankers of Bridgeport
 solved their problem, the most i'm portant question to be answered is; "But how about the demand for these houses now that the War is over, now
 that the ammunition plants have been turned back to peaee-time pursuits?'' The answer to tI1as question is that these "modep' houses, in the con- struetion of which all waste was eliminated and the work Of the house l wife made as easy as possible. are in stronger demand today than ever be-
 fore,

WAR ON RATSIS
STARTED IN PARIS
Hygienic Commission Learns Through
Investigation There are Eight
Millions in the City.

Paris, Sept. E5.-War to a finish
has been declared against the rat by
the Hygiene Commission Of Paris.
The commission was aghast to learn
from report read to it by Professor
in the city.
The determination Of the rats is to
be accomplished by all the weapons
known in rat warfare, and the cam
paign will BE- offensive and defensive.
The offensive weapons are the fol-
lowing:
Use of bacterial products or deadly
microbes likely TO cause epidemics
among the. rats, poisons, asphyxiating
gases in the sewers for several hours at
a time repeated at intervals and
traps
In this connection Professor Bordas
warns rat trappers not to smoke pc
fore setting their traps as the rat
holds tobacco in adherence. \ pre-
MUM of two sous is to be paid for
each rat killed by hunters.
The defensive campaign will be
conducted by rat proofing houses ald
by setting the garbage cans on the
sidewalks only few minutes previous
to the arrival of the garbage automo-
biles, so that rats cannot feed on their
contents over night.
Many pessimistic voices were heard
in the Hygiene Commission as to the
chances of success in Kidding Paris of
the rat nuisance, especially after Pro-
fessor Bordas had explained that the
Paris rat could boast of family tree
dating back to the early centuries of
the Christian era, having emigrated to
France from the Near East with the
early Crusaders.

up a stiff fight for their privileges

MECHANICAL DAIRY"

Washington, Sept. SLACK of pas

adjustment at that war built city of a

cream equivalent to the output of a
farm with 1900 milk cows was pro-

of the fluid were labeled reconstruct

Accomm odations for $4,000 inhabi-
tants were provided at Nitro; schools,
churches, hospitals, department stores,
restaurants, and all the other elements
of a modern well-equipped community
being part of the project. AS a con-
struction problem it was comparative
ly simple, but officials began to strike
snags as soon as they approached the
task of insuring a supply of staple
foodstuffs, particularly of fresh milk.
Nitro is situated in a mountainous
district where little, if any natural

plies were barely sufficient to satisfy
