CORPORAL'S CALL
 by Wm. H. GarviguS

complete with forges to heat shot. These craft were to be linked to- gether to form pontoon bridge for the landing party who, it was predicted, would go ashore "as on parade"
 Napoleon knew that any wind favorable for his venture from the French coast would blow to the extreme disadvantage of the British navy. Along the English coast, for a distance of seventy miles, no ship-of-the-line could approach within a half dozen miles of the shore because of shoal water. The French vessels drew only 24 inches and all car- ried full equipment of oars.
 The British made elaborate plans for the reception. The na- tion was alarmed but steady and dogged. Beacons were lighted every night alongshore. The regu- Jar army was moved toward the coast. In addition to the regular army, the British had some 200,- coo troops in Ireland, but they immediately m u s t CT ed 100000 militia to resist the invasion. Horses and small boats were re- quisitioned Every vehicle was numbered and detailed to battle station. A complicated system of communications was established and tested. This land prepara- tion was perfected over 8 period of many months but as late as 1907, the British admitted that they could bring only about TO- 600 men to any given point with in 24 hours.
 Behind the front, during the threat of French invasion, Britain likewise experienced financial difficulty. Tax receipts were suf- ficient only to pay the interest on the national debt. Money was borrowed at five percent to con- duct the military effort. Hides were taxed by the pound, for every month in the tannery, and a heavy tax was placed on fin ished leather for civilian use. Six Shillings tax was levied on every dog, and half a guinea on every hound. An Englishman paid a tax of half & crown for the privi. lege of wearing a hat. A horse owner paid five guineas on the animal and a like amount on every vehicle.
 An American commentator of that period stated: Were I to have my choice, to be a slave in America, or one of the laboring people in England, should, with out hesitation. prefer the former, with this condition, let me choose my master; for then I would be sure of getting something to eat"
 England faced almost certain disaster. Napoleon thought he had a sure thing, but he never landed. Will Adolf Hitler have greater success? England recov- cred from the panic and poverty of the early 18th Century. Will she recover from the present crisis? There's chance, and a good one.
 Napoleon, like Hitler, was once a simple corporal, and corporals are notorious for their poor luck. In the army, where men think clearly, the bray of a mule is called "CorporalS Call"
The Waterbury Democrat., 1941-01-27

Short months ago, when Adolf Hitler announced his intention of taking dinner in London, he sim ply echoed the words of another conqueror. In 1905, when Na- poleon had to turn his back on the Channel and move his army to Germany to engage the Rus sians, he told his troops that 1t had been his intention to have given them a feast in London. He regretted that his plans had gone astray, but he offered a Substi- ute. Bonaparte promised to give his troops the latest style clothes in Vienna, and he made good, with interest.
 There is nothing really new in the world. Napoleon had a plan for the invasion of Britain that makes Hitler look like 8 raw anna tetr. Bonaparte had maps of London for his officers, with the street number of every house worthy of plunder. He intended conf1scation of the estates of the nobility for distribution among his soldiers. His men were told that they would then enjoy last ing peace ard that they would henceforth be gentlemen.
 A glance at the scheme for crossing the Channel is certainly enlightening. Napoleon intended to use 40O0 shallow-draft gum boats. A fleet of $500 would be sufficient to transport 100000 sol- dters with all necessary stores. According to the dream, the land- ing party would be equipped with $500 field pieces to deliver cover ing fire. Plans also called for 800 prameS, 20 to 40-gun capacity,

 Miss Kennedy in her radio ad- dress will outline her work in con- nection with the Visiting Nurse as- sociation and other local societies. Speaking of Miss Kennedy's work, Mrs. A. A. Crane of the organiza- tion's nursing committe makes the following statement:
 "The problem of maintaining good health in the city of Water bury depends to a considerable degree upon a widespread knowl- edge of what foods make an ade- quate diet. This is the function of a nutritionist, and in the city of Waterbury there is just one nutritionist, namely, Miss Mar garet A. Kennedy, of the staff of the Visiting Nurse Association.
 She acts as a consultant to all the social and health agencies in the city. She attends the we'll child conferences conducted by the association. At these confer ences she sits down with the muse and mother to discuss the nutrition problems and eating habits of the children. At the Chase Dispensary the nutrition ist is a consultant to all the clin- ics and is in attendance at the prenatal and diabetic clinics. She plans and conducts nutrition classes at intervals for persons in- terested in maintaining good health for their families. She also plans with the Visiting Nurse for the nutrition material to be used in the Mothers Class for Ex- pectant Mothers.
 In addition to all these services she cooperates with local physi- clans in preparing special diets prescribed for private patients. Incidentally, two afternoons each week are spent at the Department of Public Welfare. Not only does
