Berlin NéWs LOSES $300 WHEN " FRIEND SKIPS 0UT | | _Garmim Perretti, KenSington + Tailor, Forfeits Bond LIBERTY LOAN SUNDAY*{ &pecial Patriotic Services to Be De- | Hvered By Bacon Girl Home—Plan | Vigorous Loan Drive for Next Week Carmine Perretti, Kensington’s well-known tailor, is today lamenting | over the loss of $500. Perretti was + this morning notified by Constable ! John J. Hackett that a bond which he furnished for the appearance of George A. George, who was recently | bound over from the local tawn court | on the charge of harboring a female ! .for immoral purposes, has been for- feited. . George was arraigned before Judge Griswold on September 18 in con-| junction with Ross Crowley, and | Martin MacDonald for gondueting an indecent show at the " Berlin Fair| grounds. Probable cause was found at the ime to bind the men over. George ap- | pealed to Perrettd to furnish bonds\‘ for him. Although it is said that the local tailor had known George but a very short time, still he placed faith: 4n the man and helped him in his | hour of trouble. ‘When the State’s Attorney Hugh M. Alcorn called the case of George in Jee superior court this week, the ac- ~cused was conspicuous by his absence. Judge Griswold was notified that the bond was forfeited. At the time of his arralgnment in the local court George emphatically proclaimed his innocence. He claimed that he was merely a ticket seller at the show and knew nothing of its nature. The show was known as the *“Vampire Girl” and Jennie May Curtls the chief performer, is now at the Seym street emporium, Hartford, serving out a 100 days jail sentence. The cases of Crowley and Mac-, Donald have not come up for trial yet. Gabriel Shaker, who furnished “7he music at the show was fined $50 and costs. The case was one of the most sen- sational tried in the local court in Years and received state-wide notice. The offenders were arrested by the state police. % Liberty Bond Sunday. / In oonformance with Governor Holecomb's proclamation, special patriatio services will be delivered by | the pastors of the local churches to- amorrow, for the benefit of the liberty loan campaign. Rev. Samuel A. Fiske pastor of the Berlin Congrega- tional church will speak on ‘“Ancient Slackers and Their Modern BSucces- gors.” Rev. E. F. Lounsbury, pastor of the Kensington Methodist church has prepared two addresses. The Wrrst will be delivered at the morning pervices on “Present Conditions and { Pastors Tomorrow— Returns \ Although pastor of the Kensington Congrega- tional church, will read the gover- nor's proclamation. Last week Rev. Mr. Hazen delivered a stirring ad- dress from the pulpit reading part of Secretary McAdoo's recent speech and asking his parlsh to.stand behind the government and purchase a bond. Rev. J. C. Brennan will also urge his parishioners at mass tomorrow to buy | a bond. Success of the Liberty Bond sale in Berlin gwas assured when a troop of scouts “canvassed every residence in Berlin and East Berlin today. En- couraged by the enthusiastic -rally held at the Trinity Methodist church, New Britain, last evening, every scout is determined to sell 10 bonds and win a medal. Rev. Samuel A. Fiske was one of the principal speakers at the mammoth rally last evening. Bond literature was distributed to the scouts and plans for carrying on the campaign next week were discussed. no Berlin scouts received medals in the first Liberty Bond sale, a number are confident that they will win the coveted prize this time. A vigorous campaign will be waged in this town next week by the wom- en’s and men’s committees to raise the quota allotted to Berlin. Efforts | to have every employe in the Amer- ican Paper Goods factory purchase a bond will be made. A canvass of every residence is being made by the women and gratifylng reports are be- ing returned. At a meeting held at the home of Mrs. Charles M. Jarvis of Worthing- ton Ridge this afternoon reports by the women’s committees were made. With the winding up of the campaign next week strenuous efforts will be .put forth to have every person, wWho is able to do so, purchase a bond. It is probable that a mass meeting will be called next week and some excellent speakers secured to arouse the public to necessity of buving a bond It is a noticeable fact, accord- ing to reports reecived from those canvassing, that the people fall to realize the importance of making the second Liberty Bond sale a success. Missing Girl Returns. After a week's absence from her home, Eva Bacon, 15 years old daugh- ter of Mr. and Mrs. A. Bacon, who was reported as missing, returned to her parents’ fireside last evening. The girl had been under the sheltering roof of her grandmother in East Ber- lin during the entire week. On Mon- day evening, Eva returned home from work and announced that she had de- cided to resign her position at the American Paper Goods factory, as the concern had changed her work- ing hours. When scolded the girl left the house and was not since heard from. A few days later her parents received a note from the girl in- forming them that she was going to New York and from there out west. Prosecutor Willlam H. Gibney was notified of the girl's disappearance and a state-wide search was being made. There was much rejoicing at the Bacon homestead when the girl re- turned last evening. Eva informed her parents that she “just wanted to scare them so she hid at her grand- mother’s home until she became lone- some."” Nothing has yet been heard from Isabella Greco, Mrs. Tony Greco of Kensington who has been missing from her home for several days. It is the belief of her parents and friends that she eloped with a young man named Gerard with Femporary Remedies” and at tho evening services, Rev.

According to a statement made last night by Adjutant General George M. Cole the last contingent for the first draft will be completed easily inas- much as they will be made up for the most part of negroes. The gov- ernment ruling providing that all col- ored men be held over until the last fifteen per cent means that the last contingent will be easily mustered. In lieu of the fact that to date for- mer contingents to Ayer have con- tained no colored men it is probable that the last fifteen per cent. from this town will be all negroes. Plain- ville, for a town its size, has an, ex- traordinary large colored population. At the examinations a large number of negroes presented themselves for examination. Mgt of them it is thought .have no dependents and are physicully qualified to serve in the ranks. & B No date has yet been set. for send- ing these men but it is not thought that there will be any difficulty in getting the last offering to camp. It is presumed that the colored men will be sent to Camp Devens but that they will be housed in separate barracks and will be assigned to special units. The statement made by the adju- tant general may mean that a num- ber of the young men of the town who have been anxiously waiting to receive *heir cards ordering them to report, will not be called into service until the last of this year or the first of next vear. Trolleys Collide, Two trolleys of the Connecticut Company collided last evening at the center.

No Optimism Now. There does not seem to be the slightest doubt in the minds of mem- bers of the general committee but that the complete allotment of $99,000 designated to the town of Plainville will not be raised within the .next few days. Better than that, some of the officials have high hopes of even over- subscribing the allotted amount. Total subscriptions now amount to $66,000 and prospects for $20,000: more are In sight. Interest is being manifested in the improvised clock on Central Square and barometer at the Plainville Hardware store which are slowly and surely climbing te the in- tended destination, f Following a fifteen minute talk to the employes of#the Circle T. factory yesterday afternoon a complete canvas of the factory was made. This morn- ing Mr. Trumbull although not an- nouncing the amount collected during the canvas stated that it proved a suc- cess. Complete returns from ‘fhe factory will be made later during thé day and are expected to boom the subscription list. With the returns to be made from the house to house canvas and from a few organizations and from the bonds which were sold at the rally this afternoon, added to what has already been reported it is believed that Plain- ville will have done its “bit” as regards subscribing in full to the minimum allotment. + Whether or not the town completes its allotment today efforts will con- tinue without abe; nce until the last hour of the campaign which ends October 26. There is a bhare poss bility that Plainville may even sub- seribe its maximum allotment of $165,000. Rally Day a Success. Although a dr ing rain continued throughout last night and during the early hours of the morning thus dampening the spirits of those who had spared no efforts in making the rally day a success, Old Sol took Jup Pluvius into camp when at 10 o’clock | the sun broke through the heavens and | shortly after came out full and warm and in all its radiance. This message from the gods acted as an incentive for the enthusiasm which has been manifested in the celebration and ac- cordingly the spirits of those in charge arose to the highest pitch. The streets, which were wet during the early hours of the morning quickly warm sun and a slight wind kept the weather at just the right temperature.

At Pierce Field, where the parade terminated, Chester D. Pugsley, presi- dent of the Peekskill Chamber of Commerce, after being introduced by Captain Trumbull of the Home Guard, delivered a patriotic address.
