MUST ASK SOON FOR VOCATIONAL COURSE December 16 Last Day, U.S, Veterans’ Burean Announces - Major W, F. Lent, district manager, district No. 2, of the U, 8 Veterans' bureau with headquarters in New York, announced that world war veterans who have a vocational handi- ecap, traceable to their mlilitary or naval service who desire vocational training, and have not applied for it, must do so before December 16, 1922, because the time of application ex- pires on that date, Major Lent stat- ed that the Vocational Rehabilitation act which provides for the vacational education of certain classes - of dis- abled veterans has a provision which states that applications for vocational education must be made prior to De- cember 156, 1022, “This provision of the rehabilita- tlon act means that those who have delayed making application for any reason whatsoever must make this application prior to December 16th, or they will forfeit their opportunity of receiving this government train- ing,"” Major Lent said. On October 1, 1922, there were 96,- 941 disabled veterans receiving voca- tlonal training under the Veterans' bureau. This figure indicates that the peak of vocational training has been passed, the high water mark having been attained in March 1922, when there were 109,805 disabled vet- erans receiving . vocational training. To show the increase and the decline in the number of men in training the, following flgures are cited: In July 1919, there were 5,926 veterans in training; in July, 1920, there were 89,761; in July 1921, there were 87,- 848 and in July 1922, there were 99,- 090 recelving this government aid. The total number who had com- pleted training up to October 1, 1922 was 22,505, These veterans have overcome their vocational handicap imposed by their disabilities as a re- gult of the training which they have received from the government. These men are now satisfactorily employed in gainful occupations. The following figures serve as an index'to show the increase in the number 6f men re- babilitated: In July 1919, 105 men had been rehabilitated; In July 1920, 1,120; in July 1921, 4,860; in July 1922, 17,251, The great majority of the men receiving vocational training, maintenance and support pay which ranges from $100 to $170 per month and also receive the cost of tuition, books and other incidental supplies while in training. Major Lent stated that there are geveral Ways in which this applica- tlon for vocational training may be made. The claimant may make ap- plication by writing a letter expressing a desire to apply for vocational train- ing, to anyone of the bureau offices located throughout the United States. It is necessary for the applicant to sign hig name so that the bureau may consider the application as made by the man himself. It is advisable for the applicant to make his application in person at one of the district or sub-district offices of the' Veterans' bureau, although this is not absolute- 1y ‘necessary. Application forms may be obtained at any one of the bureau offices or from anyone of A the co- operating agencles such as the Am- erican Red Cross, the American Le- gion and other veterans’ organizations. These forms should be signed, filled out, and forwarded to one of the Vet- erans’ bureau offices. If a person is g0 situated that he is unable to ob- tain one of these forms, a letter will be accepted as an application. ‘Where the post mark of the letter of application ér the forms forwarded as an application show that it was made on or before December 15th. the application will be considered or where the man enters the office be- fore the close of the working day on December 165th, thé applicatidn will be congidered. However, applications mailed later than $his date will be too| late and persons so applying will have lost the privilege of taking advantage of vocational training provided under| this act. The U. 8. Veterans' bureau has called this provision of the Rehablll-,} tation act to the attention of veteran organizations and has requested them to inform all ex-service men of the necessity of making early application. Persons who are in doubt as to whether or not they have a valid ap- plication on flle should take steps jm- mediatély to ascertain from one ‘of the offices of the bureau the status of their applications. The govern- ment 4s anxlous that all ex-service men who are entitled to the benefits of this act should take advantage of this opportunity. All applications re- ceived will have the fullest considera- tion and if the facts pregented are sufticient to meet the provisions of the Rehabllitation act, the claimant will be awarded such benefits as are pro- vided under the act.

A loose jointed bird is always ten- derest, The stuffing flavors the meat more uniformly if it is put into the bird the night before it is to be roasted. A word regarding the stuffing. There are many different kinds of stuffing, although all have a bread or cracker foundation. In New Eng- land, crackers, or cracker and hread crumbs mixed, have been thought to make a most excellent stuffing, es- peclally “when hot milk is used to moisten the crumbs. Some do not care for a moist stuffing, but wish the bread crumbled and moistened with melted butter or bacon fat, and sea- soned with salt and pepper. A baker's loaf of bread soaked in water and then squeezed dry, makes a good stuffing, not &% dry as the one just described, nor vet as mojst as some. Seasonings to suit individual taste may be added. Some cooks cook the giblets in wa- ter, finely chop them and add to the bread, using the water in which they were cooked to moisten the stuffing. st fel te NEW BRITAIN DAIL YOUR THANKSGIVING DINNER How To Select and Cook That Turkey—And Other Fixin’s— By Bertha E.

Y, “Dear Colonel Hayward: “An indictment was returned in the District Court of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York in the case of United States of America against the United Gas Improvement Company and others March 6, 1922. Since the indictment was returned some complaint was made by the par- ties interested in bringing the matter to the attention of the department of Justice that the indictment was defec- tive and that a motion to direct a ver- dict for the defendants on the ground of a variance between the charges ot the indictment and the case made by the proof might be sustained. Infor- mation is at hand indicating that for- mer attorneys general of the United States had grave doubts as to whether the charges covered by this indictment related to ‘“Interstate” commerce. Proof of venue and criminal acts within the statute of limitations nec- essary to support a conviction renders a successful prosecution extremely doubtful. “For these and other reasons an in- vestigation has been made of ‘the evi- dence and the jaw relating to the charges made in this indictment, and I am now of opinlon that the govern- ment would not be justified in going to trial upon it. You are, therefore, requested, if such action meets with your approval, to ask the court to dis- miss the' indictment. ““While your name as district attor- ney was necessarily signed to the in- dictment, I recall that your office had no active part in presenting it to the grand jury and that the matter was handled directly from the department of justice in° Washington by a special assistant to the attorney general.

SPRINGFIELD DEPOT PARTLY DESTROYED Loss on North Side of Station Totals Abont $40,000 Springfield, Nov, 27, — Fire which swept through the north side of the Union station early last night tied up traffic on all rallroads entering the city and,caused damage estimated at bullding. All of the pouches and reg- Istered mail matter was removed, of- ficlals sald. Police were rushed from headquarters to guard the-pouches, Thé fire was one of the most stub- born in several years. Two alarms were sounded and additional appara- tus was summoned later, Firemen were handicapped by the fact that the building is built on a steep grade which lowered the water pressure and necessitated the use of pumps. Passengers on trains were forced to leave the cars in the yards and make their way through darkness to the streets as all lights in both the north and south stations were out. Express matter was carried from the . station by employes and was not damaged, it is said. The fire is belleved to have originat- ed in the basement of the bullding and in a few minutes had swept through the waiting room to the roof. FAREWELL TO MISS LAGOSH. Miss Manda C.

PRETTY GIRLS ARE FOUND BOOTLEGGERS Baby Rattles Used to Kill Gurgles in “Wet” Trunks Chicago, Nov. 27.—Twelve pretty bootleggers, posing as actresses and debutantes, were frightened away by prohibition agents who raided the Sgnizsole Limited, the United Central's best Palm Beach train, and the Pan- ama Limited, a New Orleans fiyer, yesterday.
