T0 THE PUBLIC The Connecticut Company which controls and operates 675 miles of electric trolley road in the State of Connecticut, operated by 4,000 em- ployees, all residents of the State, has just taken offices in the Second Na- tional Bank Building at New Haven. When Mr- Howard Elliott, the Chair- man of the Board of the New Haven Compaqy, took charge of the affairs of that Company he at once planned to give to a Company as important as The Connecticut Company a management complete and independent, 30 that there would be the closest supervision of every detail. The highest efficiency and the greatest economy. Also so that the patrons of the road and the employees would find responsible officers near at hand for the prompt despatch of business. It has taken some time to work out all details, and the moving into the new offices is one of the last steps of the plans formulated in Septem- +ber, 1913, In December, 1913, Mr. L, S. Storrs was elected President of The Con- necticut Company. Since then Mr. Elliott and he have been working on the plans of organization, and the following officers’ of The Connecticut Company have now been moved from the office building of the New Haven Company to the new location. % President, General Manager, Auditor, . Chief Engineer of Power and Equipment, Construction Engineer, Traffic Agent, Purchasing Agent, Assistant Treasurer, Assistant Secretary. The Law Department, under Mr. H. G- Day as Counsel, is near at hand in the Exchange Building. Mr. Elliott and Mr. Storrs both leel that this arrangement will be of advantage to The Connecticut Company, its patrons and employees, and will help to make the Connecticut Company of the greatest possible usc in the development of business in Coppecticut. On account of the changing relations between the New Haven and The Connecticut Company because of the agreemtnt with the Department of Justice, there must of necessity be stoppage of plans for improvements, but it is hoped that the actual operagion of the property can be maintained on a better and better basis. % Rousing Millnery Values Ofred Day Our big purchase of Hats, Flowers and Ribbons at a sacrifice, is to your advantage.

At the annual convention of the Connecticut Manual Arts Teachers’ assoclation held at New Haven Satur- day the following local men were elected to office: Vice president—Joseph Wiseltier, supervisor of art instruction. Secretary and treasurer—Delmer H. Drake (re-elected), instructor of in- dustrial training. Executive committee—William L. Hagen, supervisor of industrial train- ing. The newly elected 'president, who succeeds William L. Hagen, is Wil- liam L. Leonard, of Hartford. The attendance at Saturday’s meet- ing broke all previous reeords in point of numbers as well as the quality of the speakers and the timely impor- tance of subjects discussed. Exhibits of art work were shown from Hart. ford, New Haven, Meriden, Bristol, Danbury and Seuth: Manchester, . A large representative exhibition of drawings from this ‘city attracted much attention. This exhibition will later be placed on view in this city, probably at the institute. Two new features introduced by re- tiring President Hagen also made the meeting a great social success. One was an entertainment in the form of vocal and instrumental music at the lunch hour. “The High school girls furnished this and made a hit. The other innovation was toasts, stories and speeches by those present. 'Chis was generously responded to by prin- cipals, supervisors and teachers from all over the state. : ) A section for sewing teachers was formed inside the association. This is another innovation.

Save Your Eyes Try This Free Prescription. Do your eyes give you trouble? Do you already wear eyeglasses or spec- tacles? Thousands of people wear these “windows” who might easily dis- pense with them. You may be one of these, and it is your duty to save your eyes before it is too late. The eyes are neglected more than any other organ of the entire body. After you finish your day’'s work you sit down and rest your muscles, but how about your eyes? Do you rest them? You know you do not. You read or do some- thing else tnat keeps your eyes busy; you work your eyes until you go to bed. That is why so many have strained eyes and finally other eye troubles that threaten partial or total blindness. Eyeglasses are merely crutches;' they never cure. This free prescription, which has benefited the eyes of so many, may work equal won- ders Yor you. Use it a short time. Would you like your eye troubles to disappear as if by magic? Try this prescription. Go to the nearest wide- awake drug store and get a bottle of Optonu tablets; flll a two-once bot- tle with warm water, drop in one tah- let and allow it to thoroughly dis- solve. ~ With this liquid bathe the eves two to four times daily. ~Just note how quickly your eyes clear up and how soon the inflammation will disappear. Don’t be afraid to use it; it is absolutely harmless. Many who are now blind might have saved their eyés had they started to care for them in time. This is a simple treat- ment, but marvelously effective in mul- titudes of cases. Now that you have been warned don’t delay a day, but do what you can to save your eyes and you are llkely to thank us as long as you live for publishing this prescrip- tion. PRAISE FOR MEMBER OF BOARD OF HEALTH Henry 8. Tallard Stands High in Opin. fon of Torrington Citizens, Newspaper Says. g The Torrington correspondent of the Waterbury, Republican writes the fcllowing concerning Henry S, = Tal- lard, who has been appointed a mem- ber of the board of health. “Torrington people, particularly those of the democratic political faith, are interested in the announcement from New Britain that Mayor George A. Quigley, republican, has appointed Henry 8. Tallard, a red-hot democrat, as a member of the board of health of that city. Mr. Tallard is a new- comer to New Britain and lives in the mayor’s house. He is a mative of Suffield, where he was born in 1875. He was employed by the Hotchkiss Bros. Co., of Torrington, for fifteeen years and 'was a director of the com- pany for a considerable period. “He managed the lumber business for the Torrington concern and the Canfield Lime Co., of East Canaan, which manufactured 100,000 barrels a year, which was under the control of Hotehkiss Bros. Co., and also man- aged a spruce lumber business in New Hampshire for the Torrington con- cern. In 1906 he bought for the com- pany the brick plant of N. E. Jacobs, of Berlin, and managed it until April 1, 1912, when he went to New Britain to reside. He has taken a ten years’ lease of this Berlin Brick Co. from the Hotchkiss Bros, Co., and the Torring- gaged for himself in the brick manu- facturing business. While with the Hotchkiss Bros. Co. he was also secre- tary and treasurer of the Hotchkiss Foundry Co. “He is a member of Seneca lodge, No. 55, A. F. and A. M., of Torrington, He also belonged to the Torrington club and the Fdgewood club of this borough. He is a member of the ex- ecutive board of the Central Connec- icut Brick Co. While a resident of ‘Torrington Mr. Tallard was more than once asked to accept political office, but he invariably declined, chiefly be- cause of a press of business. He is a man of much executive ability and during his residence in Torrington made many friends who will be pleased to learn of the honor he has won in New Britain after so short a stay in the Hardware city.” ——— e To the Board of County Commis- sioners for Hartford County.
