Warner as his bride. Sergeant Haw- kins is sationed at Camp Devens, AYer, Mass. The ceremony will take place at the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Warner, and will be performed by Rev. Samuel A. Fiske, pastor of the Berlin Congre- gational church. The couple will be attended by Miss ‘Warner's sister, Miss Gladys Warner, as bridesmaid and Morgan Hawkins, a brother of the groom, as best man. Miss Warner is one of Kensington's popular young women. Until recently she was employed at the American Paper Goods factory in Kensington. | 7 Buy a Liberty Bond. At a meeting to be held at the home ' of Mrs, Charles M. Jarvis of Worth- ington Ridge on Saturday afternoon at 4 o'clock reports on the sale of Liberty Bonds will be made. At present a canvass of every house in Berlin is being made and a good sale of bonds is reported. Although it is not be Jleved that it will be possible to raise the, maximum amount of $80,000 al- lotted to Berlin, still the committee in charge is confident that a good por- tion of this will be subscribed. The exact amount already raised is not known. The Berlin Savings bank, as in the first campaign, has pledged jtself to subscribe for $10,000, the largest single subscription. The American Paper Goods company in- stead of subscribing through its bank- ing house in New Britain, has promised to aid the local committee and buy its bonds in Berlin. A}though plans have not yet fully materialized it is believed that a public mass meeting will be held at the Town hall on Wednesday, October 24 hich is to be observed all over the country as “Liberty Day.” Special sermons will be delivered from the pulpits on Sunday by the local pastors In conference with Governor Hol- comb’s proclamation. The success of the campalgn thus the energetic efforts of the women. No time or effort is taken into considera- fion when it comes to selling bonds. 4 To Organize Liberty Chorus. Steps toward organizing a Liberty Chorus in Berlin will be taken at a meeting this evening at 8 o’clock in the Town hall. Lester Deming, who was recently appointed chairman of gar in Berlin reflects much credit upon | the chorus committee by the local council of defense, will preside. State Musical Director, J. L. Stev- ens of Hartford will be at this eve- ning’s session and will assist in or- ganizing. Membership to the chorus is open to every one. The only qualifi- cation necessary for enrollment is a musical voice. It is probable that a competent director to have charge of the work will be selected tonight. The purpose of the chorus is to take part in all patriotic or clvic functions. The following committee has been se- lected to organize the chorus: Lester Deming, chairman; Postmaster Wil- liam F. Fagan, Mrs. Lewis Beecher, George . Tryon, Mrs. Raymond W. Williams, Thomas W. Emerson, Mrs. S. M. Cowles, Oscar Benson, Miss Ruth Clark, Mrs. John Walmsley and Herbert H. Damon. Fitzsimons to Speak. “What To Do When Your House Ir On Fire and How to Prevent a Fire" will be topic of a paper to be read at a meeting of Court Mattebessett, For- esters of America, at Forester's hall on Farmington road by Lecturer John Fitzsimons. Mr. Fitzsimons has made a special study of his subject and is well qualified to speak. A large at- tendance is expected. The special committee appointed recently by the Foresters to raise a fund to supply the soldiers and sallors from the court who are in the service with Uncle Sam wth ‘“‘smokes” report excellent progress. Tickets, at the ex- orbitant price of one cent, giving the purchaser an opportunity to become rich quickly by winning a ton of coal, have been placed on sale. The ton of coal will be raffled on Thursday, No- vember 1. Dogs Still Running Loosc. In spite of the stringent law iaid down by Commissioner pf Domestic Animals Whittlesey of rtford, a large number of dogs are still roaming about Berlin unhampered. A number of Kensington residents are eaid to be indignant because of the inactivity of the local dog warden, Henry Austin, and are said to be drawing up a petl- tion to protest to the board of select- men. Until a few weeks ago, Berlin had no dog warden, as George G. Griffith resigned and the selectmen were unable to secure a competent successor. After considerable diffi- culty, Henry Austin accepted the posi- tion. Although there have been no cases of rabies reported in this viciniey lately, still the residents feel that they should be protected in order to avoid another repetition of the mad dog scare that occurred when the five years’_old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Francis Burnett of East Berlin was badly bitten. Railroad Employes on Rampage. Yesterday was pay day at the local railroad camp, and as a result Ken- sington was a lively place. A number of employes after recelving their week's wages, it is sald, at once dis- carded their tools, and left towards the local emporiums. After imbibing freely a number, it is reported, re- tired to a nearby lot, and tried to give an exhibition of the French cap- turing a llne of German trenches. Although no arrests were made, still a number of residents feel that the local constables should have rounded up the bunch. The residents in Kensington, assert that the es- capades of the camp rowdles is get- ting to be a disgraceful affair and that they should be severely dealt with and taught a lesson, Last week three of the employes at the camp, after flirting with John Barleycorn, engaged in a quarrel which had a court session as an af- termath. Judge Griswold, at this time impressed the men that should they ever face him again, that they would recetve a long jail sentence. This ultimatum, however, did not seem to have any noticeable effect on the men, according to yesterday's rampage. There are about forty-six men em- ployed at the “New Haven” camp at present. They live in a camp near the railroad station. Most of the men are said to be knights of the road who seek employment during the cold months and when spring comes they again seek the free and easy live, traveling about the country via the Shoeleather @xpress. Attend War Rally. A large number of local people at- tended the “statewide war rally” held in Hartford yesterday. Among those who attended from Berlin were Mr. and Mrs. Claude W. Stevens, Col. and Mrs. Charles M. Jarvis, Miss Marjorie Moore, Lester Deming, Mrs. H. H. Damon, Mr. and’ Mrs. R. O. Clark, Rev. Carleton Hazen, Mr. and Mrs, Charles F. Lewls, Major Frank L. ‘Wilcox, Miss Elizabeth P. Wilcox and __Atwater. Rev. and Mrs. Samuel A. Fiske :.f ‘Worthington Ridge and Mr. and Mrs. Ernest W. Mildrum of East Berlin spent the day in West Brookfield, Mass. The trip was made by auto- mobile. A regular meeting of the school board will be held this evening at the town hall. A number of female employes at the American Paper Goods company, Kensington, who reside in East Ber- lin are reported to have resigned their positions because of a change in the working hours. It is said in order to arrive at the factory on time the | young ladles must take' the earliest | train that leaves East Berlin instead of the second train which they have | been accustomed to take. | Mills F. Griswold of East Berlin | was a delegate to the convention of | the Knights of Pythias held in New Haven, Tuesday. HAVE THEIR FIRST TRENCH. Cambridge, Oct. 18.—Members of !the Harvard reserve officers training | corps had their first test of the year {in trench maneuvers today at the trenches near Fresh Pond built by last year's corps . The work was in preparation for an exhibition of trench work to be given on October 25, when Secretary Baker is expected to be present. i Scientific i Skin Remedy A Compound of Oils that Has Steed the Test. | *Clark & Brainera Co., Druggists. IAP ainviiie NeWs GEORGE W. ELLIS WRITES OF FRANCE Says He Likes the Country and Had Pleasant Voyage “DON'T FORGET TO -WRITE” | Plans For Rally Day Are Ncarly Com- ploted—Southington Band to Fur- | nish Musio—Subscriptions for Lib- erty Loan Reach $40,000. A letter has been received at the home of George W. Ellis of 60 Whit- ing street, Plainville to the effect that his son, Harry, who cnlisted in the army last July has safely arrived in France., Harry has many friends in both this city and New Britain who will be glad to hear of his safe ar- rival in France. When the first call came for volun- teers last summer he was one of the first to respond to the call and en- listed in July in the 9th Infantry, Company C, at New Haven. He was called immediately after for active service and sent to Hoboken where he remained but a short time. He salled from New York the first part of September. The letter follows: On active service with the American Expeditionary forces, Sept. 23. Dear Mother: 1 guess it is about time you had a letter from me. I am in France and feeling fine and hope all of you are. I had a pleasant voyage over and was sea sick only one day. One of the sailors on the ship worked with me at Russell & Erwin's fac- tory so you can see it was not quite so lonesome. France is a fine country. The camp we are in is fine. There is about five hours’ difference in time between this country and America. Coming over I had to set my watch every few hours. The people are very sociable. I've started to smoke again. This morning they gave us a package of tobacco and this noon we were given a cigar and some matches. We hdve a hard time telling the "money over here. It is all francs. | A penny over here is as big as a silver dollar. Don’'t worry about me. I am feel- ing fine and well able to take care of myself. Don’t forget to write. Letters seem pretty good over here. I will write more later. HARRY. The letter which was dated Sep- tember 23 arrived yvesterday and was over three weeks reaching this coun- try. Although it Is not known just where he is in France he gave his ad. dress as Company C, 9th Infantry, American expeditionary force, via New York. In his letter he mentions the facts that he has started smoking again. Undoubtedly he will appreciate “good American smokes” shortly and one of the citizens suggested this morn- ing that some of the money raised to buy smokes for the soldiers be ex- pended at this time instead of wait- ing until later. Plans Nearing Completion. Plans for the rally day which will be held Baturday afternoon and which s expected to boom subscriptions to he second Liberty Loan and help lainville in completing her allotment re nearing completion. This morning Chairman J. H. Trumbull announced hat nearly everything was in readi- ess to make the celebration a suc- ess. The line of march will probably be as follow. The military units and other organizations have been asked to assemble at the Town hall at 1:30 P. m. at which time the march will begin. From Pierce street to Broad street to Washington street to West Main to Farmington Avenue; counter march to East Main to West Main street to Broad street to the Drill fi€ld where the exercises will be held. It is expected that the parade will be one of the largest ever seen in action in the town. Every organization in Plain- ville has been asked by letter to par- ticipate. The Southington Municipal band GRANDMA USED SAGE TEA TO DARKEN HAIR She made up a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to bring back color, gloss and youthfulness. Common heavy tea garden sage brewed into a, with sulphur- added, will turn gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully dark and luxuriant. Just a few applications will prove a revela- tlon if your halir is fading, streaked or gray. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sul- phur recipe at home, though, is trou- blesome. An easler way is to get a bottle of Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound at any drug store all ready for use. This is the old-time recipe improved by the addition of other in- gredients. While wispy, gray, faded halr is not sinful, we all desire to retaln our youthful appearance and attractive- ness. By darkening your halr with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound, no one can tell, because it does it so naturally, so evenly. You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning all gray hairs have disappeared, and, after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy, soft and luxuriant, This preparation is a delightful tof- let requisite and is not intended for the cure, mitigation or prevention of disease.

In lieu of the fact that this band has the reputation of being one of the best this fact in itself should draw a large number to the rally. There will be a meeting this evening of the chairmen of the sub-commit- tees at which time, further plans for the celebration will be discussed. At the session tonight Mr. Trumbull will also appoint his aids to help, in the Rally Day. Protect Your Soms. “S8hall we be more tender with our dollars than with our sons?” This is the question which the people in Plainville must give thought to be- fore they refuse to sign for Libetty Bonds is the opinion of Chairman A A. MacLeod of the general committee. As long as the young manhood of America are willing to lay down their lives on the altar of democracy it is no more than right that we should help them in their endeavor by rais- ing money by which the war can suc- cessfully be carried on, said Mr. Mac- Leod this morning. To date slightly over $40,000 has been turned in by the general workers or subscribed through the bank di- rect. This is nearly one-half of Plain- ville’s minimum allotment and with the prospects of $20,000 more in sight the subscription list within the next few days should total well up towards the $60,000 mark. The rally day is expected to prove a boom and mem- bers of the general committee are sure that the complete allotment will be successfully raised although they have but nine days more to carry on | visit Burritt Root, who 1s Girlg” would glve a dance at the Town hall this Friday. The affair wiil take place the night of the 26th and should Dbe largely attended as the receipts de- rived will be used in providing com- forts for enlisted and drafted men from Plainville who are in the ser- vice. Charles Peterson of Wallingford has accepted the Adams Express agency. Card of Thanks. We wish to extend our sincere thanks for the beautiful floral offer- ings and acts of kindness extended to my mother during her illness. In a special manner do we thank Loren G.

The first meeting of the Woman's Literary club was a frankfort roast, held at the brick fireplace, Goodwin Park, Hartford, Wednesday after- noon. It was a large meeting, about 30 members being present. J. C. Loomis read a paper on English poets which was very interesting. It was decided at the business mecting to collect money for the material, which the club will sew on for the Hos- pital and Children’s Home. At a meeting of the town commit- the campaign. In order to stimulate more interest in the loan among the employes of the factory J. H. Trumbull this morn- ing stated that a fifteen minute speak- er has been engaged to address the employes tomorrow afternoon at 1 o’clock at the factory. Immediately after the talk a canvass will be made of the factory in an effort to so- licit subscriptions to the loan. In order to keep the people of the | town well informed as to how much is subscribed each day to the loan and of the total amount received to date, an improved clock will be erect- ed in Central Square. It will be marked off at intervals of 5,000 and the dial each day will point to the total, amount of.subscriptions turned in during the previous days of the campaign. Considerable Interest 1s manifested in the barometer con- structed at the Plainville Hardware store which also acts as a medium to transmit to the people how much has been subscribed to the second Liberty Loan. The mercury is still rising and the question is, “Will it ultimately reach its goal of $99,000. It has been decided to have the improvised clock in Central Square lighted after dark and the wiring will be done today. Those who are un- able to get down town during the day will have a chance each evening to learn how the town stands in regards to the loan. A Real Patriot. Through a communication to the Herald today it was learned that Al- fred Young of Plainville, prior to making application for the English army, was rejected five times when he offered himself at various recruit- ing stations wishing to become a member of Uncle Sam’s forces. He leaves for Boston Monday where he will undergo his final examination and in all probability will pass. This is only another reason why the people of the town should buy Liberty Bonds.
