NIX. HOUSTON NOT A OUACk

Mr.. McAdoo recently Informed Con-
gress and the people of the United States
that the proper way to reduce taxes was
to issue more government bonds. That
is all that need be said about that gentle
mans business acumen. Mr. Glass, who
succeeded Mr. McAdoo as Secretary of
the Treasury, in ability and perhaps we
may say in common sense, lowered above
his predecessor IN ABOUT such proportions
as mountain exceeds mole hill in size.
A comparison between Mr.. Glass and Mr..
Houston, the present Secretary of the
Treasury, need not be made. The work
of MI Glass has never been criticised.
He retired as Secretary with good rec
ord. Mr.. Houston in some of his recent
public statements has shown that he is
sensible and conservative official. Con-
corning Mr.. McAdoo's proposed bond
issue Mr.. Houston said: ga large bond
issue might result in disaster" He be-
Heved such an issue would have to bear
six per cent interest and would come into

TROY.

Mrs. Demille of Lynn, Mass, is the
guest of Mrs. w. H. Smith.
Mr.. Smith from Aroostook County,
who recently purchased the Frank Cum
bingham farm, was moving there last
week. Mr.. Cunningham has not decided
where he will locate.
Saturday, March 9th, our mail carrier
delivered mail on foot, travelling five
miles in the worst part of the storm. On
March 18th the stage made only one trip
and the rural carriers not any.
Friends of DR.. and Mrs George Stevens
of Stockton Springs will be interested to
know that they have arrived home from
their winter home in Georgetown Fla.
They found a big change from picking
oranges to shovelling snow.
There never was so much sickness IN
Troy before. In some neighborhoods
nearly every family has some member in
bed, and often the whole family. There
are not we'll ones enough to shovel the
roads, so it was impossible for a doctor to
reach them. Some were seriously i'll and
threatened with pneumonia. We have
heard of only two cases of real pneumo-
mia, and those were fatal. AS far as we
can learn in this vicinity the sick are i'm
proving. Those who have gotten on their
feet complain of extreme weakness,
which is the way the flu usually leaves
its victims. The doctors have made
hard struggle to get to their many patti
entS.

Freedom Academy Notes.

Friends of Freedom Academy have res-
son to feel much gratified over the action
of Montviile in what practically amount
ed to vote of confidence in the school
at the annual meeting of the town. Prln-
clpal Woods, who was in attendance, ex-
planned the present school situation and
stated that the tuition rate at Freedom
Academy would have to be increased.
This increase would bring it above the
$40 which State law makes payable BY
towns. No recommendation was made
as to whether this increase should be met
by the town or the individual parents:
but with the facts before them, the citi-
zens voted without dissenting voice to
raise the money necessary to pay the tut
ton of their students in full. This puts
the burden of education where our Ameri-
can tradition believes it to belonp-upon
the entire communicated the action is
an evidence of the public spirit and
broad mindedness of the people of Mont
vile.
The winter term at Freedom Academy.
which ended March 10, has been badly
interrupted by weather and road condi-
tons and the amount of sickness preva-
lent. With Sc different students ENROLL
ed, of whom So were on the records for
the entire term, the average attendance
figures up to only AZ, or 90 per cent.
February is mainly responsible for this
low figure, with an average of less than
40 for the month. Four days were lost
on account of storms and bad roads, but
these were made up by running the school
into the vacation week and the term
consisted of it's full quota of 60 school
sessions. The spring term began Tues
day, March 10, with all the old students
back or expected back and one new en-
rollment, Wesley Tibbetts of Montville,
who has been out of school for a year
and RENTERS in the class of 1928

GUARD AGAINST
THE FLU
Serious Outbreaks of Influenza
all over North America
GOOD HEALTH IS The
SUREST SAFEGUARD
'FRUIT-A-TIVES" Brings Vigor and
Vitality and Thus Protects
Against Disease

There can be no doubt that the
situation regarding the spread of
Influenza throughout the country is
one of grave concern. tits quite true
that the number of cases does not
constituteane pidemicsuch as caused
the suffering and sorrow during the
terrible days of 1918. Yet there is
no Disgusting the fact that everyone
should be on their guard against the
disease. a
In one city alone, from January
Goth to February 21st, three thousand,
one hundred and Twenty-Five cases of
Influenza and 1879 deaths from the
disease were reported to the Health
Department.
If the outbreak had come at the
beginning of the winter instead of
the end, we might reasonably feel
that the very cold weather would
check the spread of the disease. But
coming as it has, at the end of the
winter, there is grave fear that an
epidemic may occur. For spring,
with it's slush and rain under foot,
it's dampness and chill, its constant
changing from cold to warm and
back again, is a prolific source of
coughs and colds. pleurisy and
pneumonia.
The best protection, in fact, the
only safeguard against the Flu, is,
GOOD HEALTH.
Those who are not as we'll and
strong as they should be ; those who
are underweight; those who are

sickness should build up at once.
What they need is Blood-purifer,
a body-builder, a strength-giver, like
''Fruit-a-tives'', the wonderful fruit
medicine.
"Fruit a lives" regulates the
kidneys and bowels, causing these
organs to eliminate waste regularly
and naturally as nature intended.
"Fruit-a-tives" keeps the skin active,
and insures an abundant supply of
pure, rich blood. "Fruit "a tives"
tones up and strengthens the organs
of digestion, sharpens the appetite,
brings restful sleep and reneNs the
vitality of the nervous system.
"Fruit- a-tives'' contains every thing
that an ideal tonic should have to
purify the blood, to build up strength
and vigor, and to regulate the
eliminating organs, so that the whole
system would be in the best possible
condition to resist disease.
Now is the time to build up your
health and strength, not only as a
nrecaution against the ravages of
Influenza, but also to protect you
against "spring fever'' and the
inevitable reaction which comes with
the appearance of warmer weather.

B BELGIUM

Belgium is little country having an
area about one third that of the State of
Maine. 1t is more densely populated than
any other European country, having a
population of about 1000, 600; which is
about 500 per square mile Belgium was
the first to feel the force of the German
advance which had for its object the pos
session of the entire country as base of
operations against France and England.
Germany had special desire to obtain
control of Belgium's entire sea coast, 46
miles, which would open direct path
way to the sea from Kiel, their great
naval base. 1t would also enable them
to harass and perhaps invade England.
The Belgian army resolved itself into a
forlorn hope and battled alone against the
German hordes. Before the war ended
about three-fourths of Belgium was domi-
mated by German guns and more than
half her territory had been devastated.
All the live stock was either eaten by the
German soldiers or sent to Germany
Machinery from factory, mine and farm,
was either smashed or carried away, and
everything else which the invaders could
use was stolen. Of Belgium's railroads
1866 miles were destroyed, the rails were
taken away and the bridges and culverts
were blown up, In proportion to her size
Belgium suffered more losses in men, her
industries were more completely put out
of business, and she suffered more in the
general wreckage of War than any other
of the allied nations.
That noble and unfinching courage
which enabled her to resist to the utmost
every step of the overwhelming forces
which confronted her still fires Belgian
hearts Her people are devotedly for Bel
GUM, for a better Belgium, for Belgium
forever They have attacked their prob
lens for restoration as bravely as they
fought on bloody fields They have gone
to work, There is no clamor for six
hour day and five day week. They are
working with their utmost strength to
restore Belgium, to make it beautiful and
PROSPEROUS. All but IS miles of the de-
stroyed railroads have been restored,
Coal mining has pretty nearly reached
the pre-war output. The wooden mills
are I'D to three quarters of normal pro-
duction. The cotton mills have done
quite as we'll Most of the minor indus
tries are making progress and are getting
well underway, while in the production
of beet sugar and foods the progress made
during the first year after the war is
nothing less than wonderful. Belgium
has made and is now making history by
which the nations of the world should
profit

investments. He might have added that
it might result in carrying down the SELL
ing price of Liberty bonds several points
below where it now is. Mr.. Houston's
prescription for high taxes has no Quack-
cry about it. He says: Economy by
the people, avoidance of waste in ex-
penditures, economical appropriations by
Congress and prudence in handling these
appropriations will naturally relieve the
situation" That remedy for existing
economic ills is safe. and does much to
