Co-operation is a far more effective weapon, and I think we will find an increasing willingness among manufacturers, as among the majority of others in the state and na- tion, to do whatever they can te help win the war.” One of the local fuel committee chairmen suggested that it might be dificult to compel large munitions factories whose production is 100 per cent. government war orders to fall in line, because of the impossibility of cutting off the coal supply of these on preference lists. “Exactly,” replied Mr. Bill, “but in such instances we must develop a pa- triotic spirit of co-operation. Our most valuable asset will be the psy. chological power of example. Here is a ease in point. I happen to know that this matter came to the attention of one of the largest munitions fac- tories in Connecticut. Among other things, this factory had automatic stokers, and employed a fuel expert. Investigation showed a fuel wastage they had not suspected; the automatic stokers were not doing the work as well as they had supposed. They had necessar¥” repairs made, discharged their fuel expert, got another one, and notified the automatic stoker company to keep the stokers up to scratch or take them out. As a consequence, they have reduced their eoal consump- tion 18 per cent. without Ilowering their production. Saving of Money. “Had we ordered this company per- emptorily to take this action, we could uot have enforced it by eutting off their coal supply, perhaps, because their product is vitally essential. They were patriotic enoush, hewever, to do it of their own free will; and it was sound common sense 2s well, because it meant the saving of considerable meney. In asking manufacturers to go to more or less trouble to help the government eliminate the waste of fuel, we are merely asking them to help themselves. Eight Recommendations. Mr, Corson, wha has already taken up his work as administrative engi- neer for Connecticut at the office of the state fuel administrator, explained the three-page questionnaire to be filled out by‘the owners of steam pow- er plints. The questions are grouped under eight general headings, con- cerning which the recommendations of the United States fuel administration 4 Dugas has accepted a position | are substantially as follows: Fuel—That means be provided for measuring and recording the fuel used each day and by each shift. Water—That boiler feed water be heated by exhaust steam or waste heat, and measured. Air Supply—That a, correct amount of air be supplied te the fuel, and that proper means be provided for measuring and regulating the draft. WALTER MORAN IS NOW ON CRUTCHES. in France, He Writes. Walter Moran, son of Mr. and Mrs. John A. Moran of Boswell avenue, in a letter to his home says that he is getting along well in the hospital in France and is now able to get around on erutches. He is hoping that he will charnice to get even with the Bosches. The letter follows: Soemewhere in France. June 16, 1918. Dearest Mother:— Just a few lines to let yeu know that I am getting along fairly well, but still in the hospital on crutches. We had a fine turkey dinner today, Mother, and, believe me, it tasted goed. We certainly would be an ungrateful lot to find any fault with the treat- ment we get here, fer everything is done for the convalescing soldier. It is surely wonderful. My greatest anx- jetv at the present time is that I may not be sent home before I have been given the oppertunity of doing my bit for my country, for believe me, Mother, my heart is filled with ven- geance which I interd to spend on seme Hun's head befpre I will be isfled to return to the good old U. or otherwise count myself a failu- re. A pleasant little thing happened here the other day. I was washing up and a soldier came aiong asking everyone “That is my name.” Are ou from Norwich?” I answered: “Yes” He said: v name is Cronman. Are you not the man that was engineer at the gas and electric plant while my father was a designer there?” I said: “I'm the chap.” Needless to say, our friendship was sealed. He said that he read my name in the casuailty list and made up his mind to find me if it were possible. He said that it was rumored that both of my legs were shet eff, but, Mother, dear, never be- lieve such wild rumers. Any time 1 am hurt I will netify you as soon as T am able. How js Pa and all the fellows? Has Joe been ‘drafted yet? Up to this date I have never heard My mail has all gone astray and, believe me, Ma, it sometimes makes me feel pretty blue, but these are the things we get in lot for a soldier over here, but I am living in hopes.

Since the food administration made efiective its sugar certificate system whereby manufacturers who use su- gar, uch as ice cream makers, con- fectioners and bottlers, together with bakers, hotel and restaurant keepers and all retail merchants who sell su- gar, must apply to ‘the food adminis- tration for sugar certificates, many novel questions have arisen. Robert Scoville, the federal food Ad- ministrator for Connecticut, received on Thursday from Washington a lengthy telegram settling many of the points raised.

This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is very harmful.
