People living in the vicinity of the Harris home on the street have not seen the girl for some time and, be- coming suspicious, they yesterday in- formed W. H.

Since that time tirey have kept her molated in' an upstairs room but no report of the case has been made to the health: officers during that time.

The highway bridge in Kensington figured in another automobile akcci- dent Saturday aftermoon when two cars going in opposite directions side- swiped. One of the cars came down ‘Main streét, Kensington, and the oth- er came along Farmington road from the direction of Berlin street and as the drivers .attempted to pass under the bridge one failed to turn far enough out and as a result the two came® together. Bevond bending up the mud guards and other damages of a lke nature there was very little damage done and one of tfi_e cars was able to proceed toward New Britain while the other was taken to- ‘Berin garage for repairs. Ever since the Tarditi girl was killed under the bridge several weeks ago there. has been more or less cau- tlon by drivers that know the road but evidently the men that figured in Saturday’s smash were new to the surrqundings. It has been suggested that signs warning drivers of the danger be placed on either side of the bridge in order that due care will be taken. TLarge danger signs at least 500 feet each side of the bridge would in some measure lessen the danger and give some warning of what was coming. With the excep- tiort ¢f several bad turns below Mer- iden this highway bridge is one of the | most' dangerous places in the state and it has been a miracle that nothing serious has occurred there up to the present time. All cars going under the bridge should travel at a speed of five miles an hour or less. Church News.

Trumbull Gives Practical Lesson in Army Discipline GET EQUIPNENT TOMORROW Men, Reporting Late for Drill, Put to Work Digging Trenches—Conlin- Cassidy Wedding—Tormer Pastor to Speak—Charged With Beer Theft Four members of the Plainville unit of the Home Guard were given a prac- tical demoustration of military disci- pline during the drill of the company vesterday morning, Captain J. H. Trumbull*forcing them to dig trenches and to march before others in his command with shovels instead of &uns on thejr shoulders for reporting tard, Although not desiring to hu- miliate the men, Captain Trumbull wanted to impress on them, and the others in the company as well, the need of strict discipline in army regu- lations and the necessity for obeying orders to the letter, The quartet were not on hand when thelr names were called ; after as- sembly. When the company reached Woodford’s field, where the drill took placde. Captain Trumbull ordered that they be equipped with shovels and put to work digging trenches. The men went about their task without com- plaint. The company had consider- able amusement at their expense and they were made the butt of many Jokes released during the remainder of the morning. The company made a splendid showing and the officers were greatly pleased with the progress made. The men showed the results of the squad drills held during the past few weeks and in the march to the drill ground as well as in the maneuvers they pre- sented an excellent appearance. Captain Trumbull has been advised that the equipment for the company of 65 which Plainville will have for its uniformed division will, probably arrive here tomorrow. The uniforms and arms will be distributed among the ‘men which the officers have se- lected. The others will continue drilling- and will probably be equipped at a later date. Recognition of the medical corps, with Dr. L. H. Frost as lieutenant and Gage Kent as quartermaster sergeant, will probably be made by the state commission. Members of the board have practically admitted that Plain- ville will be among the units with a medical division. The corps took part in the drill vesterday and carried its equipment in the march from the Pown hall to the drill grounds, subse- quently receiving instruction in first aid work from Dr. Frost. The guard will drill every Sunday morning. Although some had pro- tested against Sunday morning drills because of the fact that it interfered with their attendance at religious ser- vices, very few asked to be excused vesterday that they might go to church. Former Pastor to Speak, Rev. S, E. Lawson of Darien, a for- mer pastor of the Methodist church, has accepted an invitation to be one of tht speakers at the en’s supper to be merved in the church parlors Thursday night. The affair give: promise of being one of the most im- portant gatherings held by the Plain- ville Methodists in a long time. Fox's orchestra has been engaged to furnish music for ‘the supper which will be served at 7:30. ‘Besides Mr, Lawson the speakers will be the pastor, Rev. W, A. Goodell and H.. A.
