Old Death Certificates Wore Not Quite Definite Troy, N. Y. ill'' Records at the office of the Troy Health Center reveal that many years ago the causes of death were indefinite and varied anything from "decay of nature" to "visitation of God." Recently Dr. James H. Flynn. Troy health commissioner, perus ed the old death records. Here are a few contributory causes listed In records of seventy or eighty years ago: "Born still," "sore mouth," "worms," "killed by stagecoach," "fits," suffocation,' 'fright," "sud den pain Internally," "killed in clay bank," "kicked by a horse," "killed by cars," "dry mortifica tion, age 60." ' Today, however, physicians are required to give the primary and contributory causes of death in signing a death certificate. i . ... . . Buy United States War Bonds! The Teeth Are Sharp!

Statements of availbllity Issued by employers or war man- j power commission officials serve' as evidence that transfers are 1 beinc made In the furtherance of ! the war effot. ! Q. loes the regulation "freeze" workers In their present lobs? A. It does not. In areas where ! employment stabilization pro (Trams are in effect workers may j terms of such programs. In other neas they may transfer to Jobs at the same or lower waKc rates. No restriction, however, is placed j upon the transfer netwif-n activi ties not Included In the essential activities list and from such ac tivity to essential activities. Q. What effect does this regu lation have on existing rights of employes under agrc-ements with thi-ir present employers? A. Xone whatever. Since this regulation Is concerned only with transfers of workers to other em ployers the rights with the pres ent employers are not affected. Q. John Smith Is working In a plant making musical instru ments. The Job pays $1 an hour and he works 40 hours a week. He wants to take a Job in a rail road round house where his pay will be SI 10 an hour and he will work 48 hours including eight hours of time-and-a-half. Will he Ik- permitted to change Jobs under these circumstances? A. Certainly. Production of musical instruments is not classi fied as an essential activity. Rail road transportation service is classified as an essential activity. Tlie fact that the railroad Job will mean more pay does not prevent Smith from making this change. Q. Sam Jones is working full time at his highest skill in a war Industry in Detroit earning SI.25 an hour. He can get a Job doing the same kind of work in another var plant where he will receive SI. 30 per hour. Will he be author ized to change Jobs? A. No. The fact that he can get moi-e money in a new Job is not a valid reason for making the change. Q. Ben Harris Is working as a lathe operator in a war plant. He w ishes to transfer to a similar Job In another war plant at higher py. Can he make the transfer? A. No. Unless the new employer Is covered by an employment sta bilization program. Q. Could Harris move from the present Job to another war Job at a higher skill and a higher wage? A. Yes, if his new employment is in an area or industry covered by an employment stabilization program. Health Certificate Wins Over Wedding License I Abilene, Tex. mi An Abilene woman evidently thinks more of her prospective husband's health i certificate than she does of the : prospective husband. When she applied at the county clerk's office for a marriage li ' cense, the deputy clerk told the I woman she would have to leave the health certificate. The wonjan refused. The deputy clerk explained that under Texas law she had no choice. In applying for the mar riage license, she would have to leave the health certificate.

The town's; fort was as characteristic as its church. Travelers made a point of seeing the ancient citadel with its grass-covered courts and rusty cannon. The lofty tower of the neighboring mosque made a bear ing for navigators.
