FAvoRs INDUSTRIAL SAVINGS.
Vermont State Branch, American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor, Adopts Resolution.

eratlon OF LABOR, ADOPTS Nesolullon.
A recommendation to all members
of the Vermont State Federation OF
Labor to encourage among the work
ers of the state cooperation with en-
ployers in establishing the govern
ment system of Industrial savings
was adopted at the convention held
the other day in st. Adams. The con-
vention adopted thu following resolu-
ton setting forth its favorable views
of systematic saving and the sncour-
agement of thrift, and asking all dele
gates to recommend to their trade nm
ions and individual members invest
ments in thrift stamps, war savings
stamps and Liberty bonds.
"The necessity for thrift and saving
imposed by the great World war has
brought home forcibly to many of our
people the permanent advantages of
establishing such habits, and has
taught them the lesson Of continuing
their practice in times of peace.
Leaders of the American Fedora
ton of Labor, international unions,
and state declarations have endorsed
the governments plan of savings, pro-
vided for the benefit of workers, for
investing in government securities, Of
both large and small denominations.
Industrial savings societies among
the workers employed in various in
dustries of New England are being es-
tablished from day to day by The CO.
operation of employers, employees, and
representatives of the United States
treasury department.
"The need of making provision for
the rainy day which comes in the life
of everyone is fully recognized by all,
and the Importance of employing the
means afforded by the United States
treasury department for safe and
sound investment of the savings of
the people is acknowledged.
Therefore, be it resolved: That the
delegates of this convention recon-
mend to all members of organized la
Dor and to the workers of the state
of Vermont that they cooperate with
employers in establishing the govern
ment's industrial plan of savings
through the purchase of government
securities.
THAT the delegates to this conven-
ton recommend to the trade unions
and their individual members the in
vestment in government securities as
the safest and soundest investment in
the world"
At mass meeting of the delegates,
James j. Hamilton, one of the field
secretaries for the industrial depart
ment of the savings division, first fed
eral reserve district, told of the gov
eminent savings plan, and was elect
ed an honorary member of the YER
mont organization.

Says His Prescription
Has Powerful Influence
Over Rheumatism

Mr. James H. Allen suffered for years
with rheumatism. Many times this ter
rible disease left him helpless and unable
to work.
He finally decided, after years OF cease
less study, that no one can be free from,
rheumatism until the accumulated impuri-
tiss, commonly called uric acid deposits.
were dissolved In the joints and muscles
and expelled from the body.
With this idea in mind he consulted physi-
clans made experiments and finally COM
pounded a prescription that quickly and
completely banished every sign and symp-
tom of rheumatism from his system.
He freely gave his discovery TO others
who took 1t. with what might be called
marvellous success. After years of urging
he decided to let sufferers everywhcre
know about his discovery through the news

Credit Is formally given American news
papers by a leading Frenchman for their sub
stantial aid in winning the war; The tribute
will be accepted at its face value. And it
might be added that it was net SO much the
things that the ne')spapers printed as those
they didn't print that helped to put it over.
II the press during the war had pursued the
policy common since the fighting ceased of
magnifying the failures instead Of enlarging
upon the successes, of voicing the doubts and
suspicious of the disloyal and the unwilling
and OF catering to the political whims of parties
and men the allies would now be paying the
war debt Of Germany and the latter probably
would be planning general invasion Of the
United States, with the help Of Japan and
Mexico.

Like the grandmothers. the mod

ON farms where cows are kept md
some excuse for rejecting fresh
milk and substituting some more
or less mysterious prepared" food.
which they can buy by the can or
package ct the drug store. Then
these misguided mothers wonder
why their babies sooner or later de-
velop evidences Of faulty nutrition.
The mothers are just . wee tribe
too credulous Of the baby food tes-
timonials.
One trouble With ARTIFICIAL sub
stitutss for fresh milk In infant
feeding il that they lack something
known - vitahin. All we know
about vitamins in foods 10 that Ger
tain foods contain vitalnins and
certain foods do not; and that
foods without vitamins fail to nour-
tsh the infant adequately. For in
stance, fresh milk contains VI
tamins, but condensed milk does
not. Fresh vegetables and fruits
contain vitamins, but preserved
vegetables or fruits are wanting in
vitamins, at least after long pre-
servation. If = baby receives an
inadequate supply Of this accessory
factor (as yet not chemically iden-
tified) in his diet, the baby fAils to
grow and thrive. He may be very
fat, even too fat for health, for a
month or two, but sooner or later
unless his diet is corrected, the
baby shows some evidence of mild
or latent scurvy, or develops clear
cut scurvy. or perhaps has ricketts,
in the second year. This Is strik-
ingly common history among infants
fed with what l call cheat foods.
Thus, the baby seems to do well
