Martin, empl Andrews Swift company, the following letter to Mr. from Germany: “My Dear Mr. “Your very welcome letter me a few days ago, least it surel from you onc ved at the Andrews: reached and to say the did seem good to hear more and to know that all is well, with you and at the box. Tt surely must have been ve trying on your nerves to keep thin right side up during the past. winter with all the sickness about and shortage of help and I'm very glad that you are not one of the unfo tunate ones to be laid up. Reports are there were very few not affected I received letters from both Boston and Chicago in response to the copy of my letter that you sent them and am writing both offices. 1 received a package from TLondon a few days ago qontaining fan cookies, dines, and some canned soups, so you sce Swift & Co. are still on the job though the actual fighting has s ped. I have been thinking of 3 the box during the past few day wondering how many cans you have disposed of and I'll bet the egg candler has his hands full keeping ahead of the orders. T sure would enjoy sitting down to a breakfast of Premium ham or bacon once more and I surely intend to some day but m not at all ave here. The pr very bright as far concerned as there is a new order the Army of Occupation is to be relieved only as fast as replacements can be secured. And even then whole companies are not going once. The men with families greatly need of their help are to be sent And next come those who are most urgently needed by firms ,who formerly employed them. Affidavits are needed in such cases so I gue: I am booked for some time to come. However, one never knows what the next move will be in the army. From all reports we won't find the old U. §. in the same condition as when we left for this prohibition surely must be strange. It is hard to realize a nation bone dry and these countries over here are as open as can be as far as booze is concerned, days and in all of my_travels few drunks have been secen With the, exception of armistice day and that was a good excuse I think. I am pleased to hear that the hoys from the box who are over here well and T sure would like to cross them but I hardly expect they are far away from me. are still living the same old life but it is getting terribly monotonous marking time and waiting. The Y. M. C. A. has built a fine new recreation hut on the banks of the Rhine very much on the style of the restaurants and dancing pavilions seen at sea- shore resorts back home There is a large miain room furnished with easy chairs and lounges for entertain- ments and reading purposcs. They have a German string orchestra on duty every day and evening which is well worth hearing. We real spring weather now farmers are getting in their very fast. Some things are above ground. Well T guess I will quit for this time. Trusting you are enjoying the best of health and tv all is going smoothly at the box. Giv my most sincere regards to all the ‘boys.” very are run to, We and the erops already TENDERED A SHOWER.

Dr. Joseph Goldberger of the New York public health service is an au- i thority for the statcment that the dis- ! ease known as rickets is caused by substitution of too large a percentage child’s diet, instead of milk. Milk con- tains all constituents of complete nu- trition and in proper proportion. It is, thercfore, one of the chief articles of diet prescribed in the treatment of pellagra and rickets in the United States. There are now 125,000 cases of pellagra in the country. Rickets is a disease of early childhood, charac- terized by defectiye nutrition of the entire body and alterations in the | growing bone. Tests completed at the Cennecticut Agricultural station at New Haven in- dicate that sore eves of children are | often the result of too littla milk in their diet, Butter fat is the ingredi- ent of milk which shauld be consumed { by children in order to avoid un- necessary eye troubles. Experiments at the agricultural station have that, if a young rat is fed on a ration adequate in all respects except that the fat is furnished by lard or vege- ble oils in place of butter fat, it will grow normally far about 80 days, then suddenly it will decline in weight and soon die. Such animals are found frequently to be suffering from in- fected eyes and in may cases large developed on the eyeball. A smal] :-aount of Datker fat added to the dict causes an immediate recov- ery of health, gain prompt restoration of the eyes to their normal condition. This marvelous effect is due to the presence in the butter fat of some substance as yet undiscovered, which for the time being is called the fat- soluble vitamine. The presence or absence of this substance in any food- stuff can he detected, y the statian experts, only by feeding young ani- mals. Milk alone contains this much needed butter fat in large quantities. With the rapld increase of malnu- trition in the United States it seems wise to adopt preventive measures. GOURT STREET EXTENSION Many Favor But Some Are Opposed 1o Proposed Improvements of Central Thoroughfare Into High Street. A hearing on the proposed exten- sion of Court street to South High street was held last evening at the meeting of the board of public works. Chairman E. N. Humphrey of it hoard said that he considered the ex- tension a benefit and the cost should be pald through general taxation. D. McMillan also spoke in favor of the extension. D, K. Pe spresen- tative of the People's Evangelical church, said that despite the fact that the church would not benefit hy the improvements, the work should be paid for by general taxation. A representative of the Evangelical Church of Reformatian opposed the extension, and claimed it would ruin the church property. Others who op- posed the extension were Roger W. an, John Peterson, Mrs. wce M. Coholan, William Middlemass, the Misses Eastman and Rev. Lyman S Johnson. Dr. Henry T. Bray, Chief Rawlings, the latter representing the Masonic Building corporation, William H. Hart, J. H. Pease and F. G. Platt, rep- resenting the Y. M. C.
