The British, who for the most part had dismounted their cavalry regiments and used the men as infantry to man the trenches, are once again using mounted men at the front.

They are all of brick and the young soldier who enlisted several months aso seems quite impressed. In a letter written to his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Malcolm Venberg of who !

Little things like machine guns, or shells do not bother him, he says, but he must have his sweets. choco- BOY VERY SERIOUSLY HURT. Neighbors found John Tracesk, 12 vears old, of 80 Jubilee street, in the roadway on Jubilee street late yester- day afternoon and notified Policeman Thomas C. Dolan. Dolan called the police ambulance and took the boy to his home, where it was found that he was injured and bruised about the body. How he came to be lying in the road or the nature of his accident could not be learned, as he refused to tell the poelicemen who attended him, and no one else seemed to know any- thing about it.

Holmes Gives Patriotic Ad- dress at Northend School Telling themselves for a war last three or four which will eventually United States the people to prepare that will years and see. 4,000,000 soldiers fighting on foreign . soil for TUncle Sam and democracy, and warning the people to steel themselves for news of occasional disasters and defeats, also to be ready to receive the bodies of the/dead and to be prepared to care 1 for the wounded, Superintendent of Schools Stanley H. Holmes delivered a stirring patriotic address before a large audience at the annual mesting of the Parents and Teachers’ associa- tion of the Northend school last even- ing. He impressed the audience with necessity of having a unified loyalty and an undivided nation in order to pProsecute the war to a successful end. His speech was delivered straight from the shoulder and several times Mr. Holman was interrupted by out- bursts of loud applause. Mr. Holmes opened his address by complimenting the Northend Parents and Teachers’ association for being a live organization. He was greeted With much applause when he said that hé hoped the school would soon have an annex. Mr. Holmes urged the parents and teachers to bring pres- sure to bear and to prevail upon the ! school board to build an annex to the | school which will contain an assem- bly hall, a gymnasium and several more spacious class rooms. Superintendent Holmes, in speaking on ‘“Patriotism,” said that it was his purpose to give his audience a brief, straight heart to heart talk on the present war situation. ‘“During’ the. last presidential campaign,” he said, ‘“the party asking for President Wil- son’s re-election used as its chief issue the argument that the chief executive had kept this country out of war. His opponents clamored that President Wilson was too much of a peace lover and that this country should be more prepared. ‘That there were at the time of the election more peace lovers than advocates of war is evidenced by the fact that the man who oc- cupies the chair today was elected on a peace platform. “Any sane man,” continued Mr. Holmes, thinks it better to be at peace than at war unless we are fighting for a just ‘cause. The Wilson platform, which stood for an honorable peace, is today back of the greatest war of human history. Those who advocate peace at present are in the minority. We must continue this war until it is carried through to a successful conclusion. We must continue with a grim determination to win the war and vindicate the principles for which we are fighting. * We couldn’t avoid this war. “The people are slowly but surely being brought to realize that this country is waging a war. First the draft law went into effect and when carried out 600,000 young men will be under arms. The government has also changed its policy of ‘lassez-faire’ or let alone theory—to federal control policy. Individual interests are slow- 1y giving way to national. “The radical and fundamental changes, such as accepting the con- scription law, the coal situation, the seizing of ships and making them property of the national government and interfering with manufacture, are being well taken by the people. The quick response and loyal attitude of the citizens are the best evidences of the stability of the government in which we live.” Superintendent Holmes in speaking of the uprisings that were predicted at the time of the declaration of war against Germany said that no stock should be taken in this. ‘“No government that ever existed has been put to such a test as the United States has been put to,” he said. ‘“The re- sult is a great tribute, and is evidence of the worth and efficiency of the ed- ucational system of this country. We have a reasonable and well-balanced people. Their intelligence is evidenced in the stability of the democracy and the efficiency of education. The schools are developing the right sort PORE CLOGGING IMPLES AND BLACKHEADS Easily Prevented by Use gf Guticura ssing disfigurations are ented, in most 1y using Cuti- 1 for every- urposes ouches of ura Ointment eeded.

Prepare for Worst. “We ought to prepare ourselves for the worst. Greater changes are com- ing. The manufacturing systems will be greatly disturbed. Productions that are unnecessary will be done away with and the men and money will be turned to the production of things that are more necessary for the successful persecution of the war. It was done in England and if the war continues long enough it will be done in this country for the safety and well-being of our people. “The food supply will be controlled by the government and there will be another draft. America will send over to KEurope possibly 4,000,000 | men before it reaches its maximum. [ have been told by men close to af- fairs at Washington that the govern- ment is making extensive preparations to wage the war for three or four years. They are doing things en a large scale so that the war will be ended all the sooner, and the con- flict will be fought hard to a limit. “We must steel ourselves for the worst. We must be prepared to re- ceive the bodies of our dead and the bringing back of the wounded.” The little interest that is being manifested by many in the war and that a number have not yet awakened to the fact that a war is being waged, Mr. Holmes said, was brought to his attention while canvassing for the Y. M. C. A. and Knights of Columbus ‘War fund. . “We must wake up to the actual situation before the dead are brought home,” the speaker continued. ‘“We must be prepared for occasional de- feats, not that we haven’'t the best; army and navy, but we must be pre- pared for disasters because of the fluctuating fortunes of war. We must be prepared to meet all the disasters that our men encounter while fighting under our flag. We must be pre- pared to receive the news of the sink- ing of a transport, and upon receiv- ing the news we must not be dis- couraged. We must set our teeth and fight harder. It is characteristic of the American people to make up for any loss sustained. “As to the people staying at home it is their patriotic duty to be good citizens and Americans. We must all be true Americans. There can be no divided loyalty, but everyone must be a straight, true American. “Those of foreign birth and Ger- man-Americans must stand behind the government. We must do everything with a whole heart and without a sign of grumbling. We must con- serve our food supply and do all the other things demanded by the gov- ernment in order to keep from our shores the horrible conditions that exist in Belgium, Poland and Russia. We must do this to keep our women and children from being abused. We must do all that we possibly can to ! help win the war. We must make our government safe so that a man will be taken for what he is worth and will be able to live out a life as an individual, not as a unit in a ma- chine.” An excellent musical program and entertainment was carried out. A pleasing vocal solo was given by Miss Edith Bartlett of Meriden. Under the direction of Professor Max Sheideker and Professor Leo Wich of the New Britain Institute of Music a number of children rendered several pleasing selections on the violin. They re- ceived many encores. “To Whit, To Whit, To Whoo" was dramatized by a group of children ! from Miss Leupold's room and was greeted with much applause. ““The | Golden Goose” was read by Huldg ' | Johnson and Miss Dalsy Gardner ren~ dered a piano selection. A socil hour followed. L. A. Carrier, chair- man of the association, presided . at ' the meeting. \ sam Berkowitz of 666 Main street reported to the police today that a girl who kept house for had been missing since Monday after- noon. She is 23 years old, 4 1-2 feet tall and 130 pounds in weight. FOR SALE Turnips—1 00w Gronn 90c a Bushel Delivered: Raised by the Park Commissioners. PHONE R. B.
