World War Veteran Studied Business
Course So WeR That Boston Uni
versity Makes Him a Professor.
?
Written for Franklin Times
By ROBERT FULLER
Thru Autocaster Service
Boston; April 13.?John Murray,
now an instructor in Boston Univer
sity here, who, quitting an $18 a week
job driving stakes, went 'into the
World War and lost an arm in the
Argonne, has written an appeal to
remember those still suffering the
pains of the great conflict.
"I suppose it is" just human nature
to forget." he says.
Murray has won both a bachelor's
and a master's degree in the last year.
Bostoh University had planed to make
a salesman of him but his work in
economics attracted attention to such
an unusual degree that the university
decided it did not wish to lose him.
He knows what it means to really and
literally fight for an education, and
his letter, sent to national headquart
ers of the American Legion Endow
ment Fund for disabled men and
orphans of veterans
"My observation and my knowledge
of the Legion's acts of kindness and
to many others prove to me the justi
fication for its existence," he says.
Murray had been working as a tran
sit man, swinging a han.mer and
carrying a surveyor's chain for a
civil engineer, early in 1917. He be
lieved he could begin a college course
the next fall. Tnen War.' Murray
quickly decided he could not stay on
sidelines.
Unused and Loses Arm in Argonne
He went to France with the 11th
Infantry of the 28th Division. At
Monblainville in the Argonne he was
gassed and his left forearm so badly
shattered it had to be amputated.
Most of his savings had disappeared,
Like almost everyone else in uniform,
he had hardly expected that he would
be living when the war ended. Be
sides the dollar's value had shrunken.
Murray could not return to his old
work, and the cost of everything, in
cluding education, had risen.
However, the government agencies
were making that heartrending be
ginning of the efforts to give all men
disabled in war service a fair deal.
The government acknowledged that a
man who had given an arm for his
country was entitled to an education
at the country's cost. So Murray was
enrolled in theCpllege of Business
Administration of Boston University.
He now has completed the course at
the age of 28 and has been made a
professor. On the threshold of newer
and wider ambitions, he writes:
"Certainly If it were not for the A
r.erlcan Legion, many-of us, myself
included, would have no reason to be
other than bitterly disposed towards
everything, despondent and unhappy."
BETTER VEGETABLES SECURED .
BY CAREFUL BLASTING.
Raleigh, April 13.?Checking the
growth of vegetables by careless
methods of transplanting means a
poor growth and yield.
Glenn O. Randall, extension horti
culturist for the State College of Ag
riculture, gives four important points
to keep in mind when moving the
young vegetable seedlings from the
plant bed to the open garden or field,
lie sjates, first, that the gardener
must not disturb the roots any more
tkanis possible; second, the seedbed
should be soaked shortly before the
plants are moved; third, the soil
should be thoroughly prepared to re
ceive the little plants, and, fourth,
delicate plants should be hardened
off before planted to the open field.
"In order not to disturb the roots,
the gardener should take up a good
ball of earth with each plant as this
will prevent breaking of the root
lets," says Mr. Randall. "Wetting
the seedbed before removing the
plants will allow them to withstand
the loss of moisture in the field. If
roots are prevented by a lumpy or
poorly prepared soil from taking hold
and adjusting themselves . as rapidly
as they should, the plants will grow
oft slowly. It is often impossible to
firm the soil around the plants be.
cause of poor soil preparation.
"Hardening the plants to be trans
ferred from a hot bed or cold frame
is the process of gradually exposing
the young plant! to the weather. This
is done by first ventilating the bed for
a few hours during the warmer part
of the day and then gradually remov
ing the cover entirely. This helps
the plants to withstand the cool wea
ther and also helps them to withstand
the hot weather when finally trans
planted."
Mr. Randall states that the obser
vance of these simple precautions will
aid the gardener to be more success
ful with his work and will result in
his securing better and more vigor
ous growth as well as better yields.

HOW DOCTORS TREAT
GOLDS ID THE FLU
To break up a cold over night or to cut
short an attack of grippe, influenza or sore
throat, physicians and druggists are new
recommending Calotnbs, the nausealess
Calomel tablet, that is purified from dan
gerous and sickening effects. Those who
have tried it say that it acts like magic, by
far more effective and certain than the old
style calomel, heretofore recommended by
physicians.
One or two Calotabs at bed time with
a swallow of water,?that's alL No salts,
no nausea nor the slightest interference
with eating, work or pleasures. Next morn
ing your cold has vanished and your sys
tem feels refreshed and purified. Calotabs
are sold only in original sealed packages,
price ten cents for the vest-pocket size;
thirty-five cents for the large family pack
age. Recommended and guaranteed by
druggists. Your money back if you are not
delighted.?aov.
Keep the Mud Out

The housewife appreciates the
trimness and handiness of con

poles connected by concrete
paths. These and stationary
tubs of concrete are a big help
on washday.
