For Drafted Men, New Britain' chapter has not over- looked the local boys who have al- ready gone into the different camps to train for mservice and the following is a list of the articles that have been thus far furnished directly to them: Comfort pillows, 25; comfort bags, 27 (Bent to Fort KEthan Allen); sweaters, 113; wristlets, 60 pair; muf- fibrs, 98; helmets, 32; stockings, 42 pair, and comfort kits, 56. A letter recelved at Red Cross headquarters shows the appreciation of the boys: To New Britain Branch, A. R. C.: We New Britain boys at Ni- antic wish to thank you for the many very useful knitte gar- ments which we received. We have already found them very handy and realize how necessary they will be when the cold weath- er sets in. It helps a great deal also to be thought of by those we know personally and we all as- sure you we appreciate greatly your kind work. Respectfully, NEW BRITAIN BOYS, 101st Machine Gur Battalion. For the future, in accordance with an official request, all garments in- tended for New Britain boys will be shipped directly to New Haven chap- ter and will be distributed from there as required. New Britain chapter will do all the work possible to pro- vide comforts for our own boys who are alreadv in camp and for those who are vet to go and the boys will receive such supplies at New Haven. In addition to the above lists of work accomplished during the past month two large boxes .of relief ma- terial for the Duryea War Rellef have been received packed and shipped at the Red Cross rooms. The Duryea War Rellef is an activ- ity for relief work in France, of which Mrs. Nina L. Duryea is pres- ident and Major Charles Elliott War- ren of the Lincoln National Bank in New York is the treasurer. It s a work in which many New Britain people are already interested and which has a strong appeal for the interest and help of many more. Gifts of money are always useful and there is also great need of clothing for men, women and children. Either new or slightly worn clothes or ma- terials are needed, also children’s toys, canned goods especially peas and beans, cocoa, tea and candle ends which are used with newspapers for fuel as well as for lighting. All con- tributions of supplies for this very worthy work will be received at the Red Cross rooms and will be packed and forwarded without expense to the contributor. ‘Work Should Boom. Now that the heated season is over and vacations are at an end it is hoped Afhat more women will come to the aid of the Red Cross and’do all that can be done to keep well and comfortable the men who have gone oué to fight for them. lenty of wool is now on hand and every woman who can knit is earn- estly requested to help to supply the warm garments which will soon be as badly needed.. Sewers are also need- NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER LUCKY DAY UGUST All those holding receipt of purchase made on that day will please call in and have their money re- funded, and keep the merchandise.

The United States now has an op- portunity to supplant Germany in the hardware markets of Italy, Spain and Portugal, according to a report issued by the bureu of foreign and domestic commerce, department of commerce. The publication was prepared under the direction of C. W. A. Veditz, com- mercial attache at Paris, who asserts that American hardware can more than compete with German products in these markets if American manufac- turers will make slight alterations in their lines ta meet local conditions, and will cater to the demands of the trade. The report reviews the general con- ditions affecting the hardware trade in each of the countries where the in- vestigation was carried on, and de- scribes the system of business. It out- line the steps which the American producer should take in entering these markets, and tells of the competition that will be encountered both from domestic manufacturers and producers in other European countries. An accurate description is given of conditions in each of the countries as to mechanics’ tools, cutlery, agricul- tural implements, garden tools, build- ers’ hardware, shelf hardware, vehicle hardware, harness and saddelery, pipe- fittings, cabinet hardware, firearms and ammunition, sporting goods, marine hardware, house furnishing gaods, electrical supplies, lamps and lanterns, ed, plenty of them. There is work - For theose who ‘think they are not expert there is simpler work such as handkerchiefs to make and towels to hem and for the more ex- pert sewers never ending hospital gar- ments. The rooms are well-lighted and de- lightfully pleasant. New Britain chapter is fortunate indeed in its hadquarters, and any woman who can epare one afternoon a Wweek, or one morning, or one hour occasionally, can be of great assistance. It is hoped that all the socleties and the different groups of individuals who worked as well last winter will find it possible to take up the work again for the needs are just as great as ever and promise to be still greater. Only re- cently an urgent appeal for more than a million knitted pieces of wearing apparel for soldiers was made to the National Red Cross and every chap- ter is taxed to the utmost to try to meet the call. New Britain wants to do her share and surely every woman in New Britain will contribute a lit- tle of her time to help. A verse from the pen of an enthusi- astic Red Cross worker in another city has in it much food for theught and every woman may read into its lines a message to herself: Interminable folds of gauze For those whom we shall never nee— Remember pause That every drop of blood to stain « o this whiteness Fall for you and me. fingers when your abrasives, paints and varnishes, brushes, and masons’ and miners’ tools. A collection of 183 samples from Spain and Portugal is available for in- spection at the New York district of- fice of the Bureau. Copies of the re- port may be purchased for 15 cents each at the bureau of foreign and Do- mestic commerce or from the Superin- tendent of documents, Government Printing Office, Washington, D. C. Its title is “Markets for American Hard- ware in Italy, Spain and Portugal,” Miscellaneous Series No. 55. REFORMATION FESTIVAL.

Confidence that the 20,000 mem- bers of the Connecticut Chamber of Commerce ‘“like the Minute Men in the Revolutionary War, are ready at.| a moment’s notice to save, sacrifice, and serve in any way which will as- sist America and her allies in winning the great war and establishing per- maent peace,” is expressed by Ed- ward P. Jones of Winsted, President of the Connecticut Chamber of Com- merce, in one of the series of “Made in Connecticut War Interviews' 'made public today. “You ask me to make a statement regarding the war”, said Mr. Jones to the representative of the Council, “At { different times during the history of the world, wars have been fought which have determined the destinies not only of nations, but the courses of civilization. “They have detcrmined whether races should be oriental or occiden- tial, pagan or Christian. Other wars have affected either a single nation or a group of ‘nations. The Revolu- tionary War affected directly only the United States and England, but it established the principle of liberty. The Civil war/ affected only this country, but it declaredl to the world the principles of freedom—that one man could not be made the slave of another.. “The present world war, will, T be- lieve, establish the democracy of na- tions. NEW BRITAIN WILL EXHIBIT AT FAIR ' Special Mecting of Those Interested Held to Plan for Municipal Contributions, At a special meeting last night in Mayor Quigley’s office it was declded that New Britain should enter ex- hibits of vegetables and foodstuffs at the Berlin fair. The plan is some- what different from that of least year; the city will enter, whereas for- merly the town farm entered alone. Anyone wishing to enter vegetables or foodstuffs should bring their arti- cles to the city hall between the hours of 9 a. m. and 1 p..m. Sunday. A special invitation is extended to all the housewives of the city having canned friut or vegetables, the goods should be put in paper bags with the owners' name and address. * A. E. Magnell, representing the Berlin Fair, told the committee a separate tent, 30X60 feet, equipped | with tables and plates for exhibition purposes would be given New Britain. A large sign will be erected over the tent calling attention to what New | tions as well as individuals have Bandits have had their day ! ERVIEWS Statements by prominent Connccticut citizens on vital war topics ticut State Council of Defense. This newspaper has made arrangements with the Council of Defense to publish these interviews, and they will appear Monday, Tuesday, and are gone. Pirates have sailed the seas and have disappeared. Germany iat the present time is a bandit and a pirate among the nations. “This war will determine that na- a liberty, and the pursuit It will determine that right to lite, of happiness. ia treaty is a treaty and not a scarp of paper. “It is the privilege of the United ‘States, the oldest, the richest and the | most powerful exponent of democracy | to throw the weight of her power in favor of the democracy of the world and the liberty of all peoples. “As our sons turn their faces tow- ard the battlefields of Europe, let us jinspire them with the belief that their sacrifice will not only preserve 1for us the liberty ‘we inherited from our fathers but make safe for the weaker nations the same liberty we enjoy. Let vus not bid them adieu with tear-stained faces but with cour- ! age, faith and hope let us send them to the emancipation of the world. When they have departed we should remember that there 1s a food line as well as a fighting line; that there is service at home as well as sacrifice abroad. “It is the duty of every man, wo- man and child to support the govern- ment in its determination to arm, equip, and support the American army. To do this it will be neces- sary for us to give up some things we now enjoy.” Britain has done in answer to Gov. Holcomb’s call for food production and conservation. The produce from the Municipal farm will be placed in the center of the table and flanked by the products of the town farm and other &ntries. W. W. Leland was named chairman of the committee to handle the ad- vertising and publicity. ~ R. H, Craw- ford, superintendent of the Boys’ club, will be in charge of the display at the tent.
