Epidemic Of Sickness Keeps Druggists Busy

The present cold spell has brought with 1t much sickness, which in turn has caused 8 pre- scriptiOn-b buying wave throughout the city, it was learned today. ApOthecaries Hall reported that last Saturday was one of the busi- est days in its history.
 William P. Dunphy, former pres ident of the Waterbury Druggists association and an executive on the state board, said that local druggists have had all the business they could handle during the past week.

A Me SIS sergeant, accord

whose brains have been baked out.
This does not apply 10 the mess
sergeant in our battery whose
feelings are easily hurt by cruel
remarks and who weepS tears

he's picked on. This Is simply the
old army definition Of mess SER
geant.
All of us rising student cooks
arc eligible 10 become mess ser
geantS. Staff Sgt. Adams told us
in our first cooking class yeSter-
day morning. Then we can SIT out
in the cool dining rooms and yell
back orders for the cooks 10 yeti
at the student cooks 10 yell at the
kaypees.
This is not the beautiful gold
life that II seems, though.
The mess sergeant has to make
acquisitions and keep records on
all the rationS, he has 10 make out
menus, see that the food is pre-
pared properly and supervise the
