 Glucose does not corrode nor affect metals; in fact, it prevents such ac- ton by virtue of its chemical reduc' ing properties It seems to have no ei- feet upon rubber in the dilution used; at least. I have never had to replace my rubber hose connections. There are no objections to glucose at all that I have found and it's inexpensiveness and the freedom from annoyance ol constantly having to replace volatile solvent such as alcohol, are unques- tionable advantages.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 1S-Glucose | is recommended as a preventative of automobile radiator freezing by Dr. Charles H. LaWall, department oi Theoretical Pharmacy, Philadelphia College of Pharmacy and Science. ''For four years past have success fully employed commercial glucose
 with unquestionable efficacy and with no detrimental results whatever" eX- plained Dr. LaWall.
 He believes that glucose is superior to antifreezing mixtures containing de natured or wood alcohol, glycerine, or some chemical salt, such as calcium chloride. The ordinary confectioners' white glucose is preferred, although on one occasion he used the glucose sold for table use.
 The amount necessary is between 1li teen and twenty per cent or about a pint and half of glucose to gallon of water. The glcose nay be mixed with enough warm water to complete ly dissolve it and then added to the remainder of the water in the radia tor No further addition or attention

Lying off the coast of Asia Minoi are a group of islands called the DO decanese. Although these islands are of little value in themselves, they hold commanding position in the Aegean Sea and have therefore been an Tob ject of international envy. Up to the Turkish-Italian war of 1911 they were under Turkish rule, but since then they have been occupied by Italy, pending Turkeys fulfilment of heG treaty obligations.
 In the famous Treaty of London of 1915 the Allies promised Italy that she could annex these islands at the end of the war. This promise was a fragrant vibration of the principle of nationality, since the Dodecanese are inhabited entirely by Greeks. After the vigorous protest of Greece, the Venizelos-T -Tittoni agreement was sign ed in July 1919, in which Italy prom ised to cede these islands to Greece, with the exception of Rhodes, as soon as the Turkish settlement became ef- fective. But in order to satisfy the leg al properties and to prove flat the Treaty of London was not I scrap of paper" the Allies solemnly ceded the Dodecanene islands to Italy in the Treaty of Severes of August 1920. At that time Italy reiterated it's inten- tion of turning them over to Greece.
 With the collapse of the Turkish settlement Italy has seen fit to de nounce the Venizelos-Tittoni agree ment and apparently plans to annex these islands outright.

Fair Gambling.


ApparentIy diplomacy settled a bad
situation at the Rutland County fair last
week Governor Hardness the previous
week had Clamped down the lid on games
of chance running ut the Addison County
fair at Niddlebury. The management
had yielded on the governors assurance
that he would see to ii that the same .ule
was observed at all fairs this year. When
the Rutland fair opened. however. the
games We're there in abundance. Middle
bury frantically called upon the COVER
nor by telephone and telegraph, to make
good and shut things up at Rutland as he
had done at Middebury. There was Il
moment of halting in the executive cham

ally it smoothed out, Colonel Gibson took
the post vacated, negotiations with the
fair officials proved more effective than
club and the games of chance went out.
1t is. or should be, conceded that the
governor is right about this matter. For
some time the gambling at fairs IN Yer
mont has been little short of disgraceful.
The law is strictly against il and per
fectly clear. yet it has not been enforced
because of the reluctance of local officials
to take steps that would mean shutting
off Il profitable and much-nccded revenue
for the fairs The public too has viewed
it rather complacently Just little ex-
ira zest to the midway. supposed to be
trihe shady. Nobody obliged TO see it or
take part unless they chose to. and then
no kick due from them. But all the same

with the law as it is the governor only
did his duty in bringing about enforce
ment. by whatever means
1t is rather singular. the growing lax
ity about gaming. While the moral
standard seems to be rising in other lines
the desire TO tempt Dame Fortune in
many ways shows no sign of abating. Per
haps the commercialism of the period en-
courages it. Polite gambling on Il small
scale has taken the place of the open
game for big stakes. 1t deserves all the
encouragement that can be given it
