THRIFT STAMPS GO ON SALE HERE SOON Will Be Offiered to Public in Factories, Stores, Etc. Loyal patriotic citizens of New Brit- ain, who since the commencement of the war have evinced their interest in humanity and democracy in every campaign that has been conducted for the good of the United States and the welfare of its inhabitants, are soon to be afforded another means of carrying on their splendid work through the Thrift Stamp and Gov- ernment Savings Certificates move- ment which is under way. In mak- ing the first step in this city, those in charge have secured the services of a committee which is thoroughly ca- pable of handling the immense un- dertaking. F. R. Gilpatric, whose work in connection with campaigns of the Red Cross, the Y. M. C. A. and Knights of Columbus and others, ma- terially aided in their success, has been given the chairmunship of the work in this city. The Thrift Stamp and Government Savings Certificates movement has so been arranged that all classes of peopls, from the little newsboy on the streets to the capitalist may join in aiding his country in the task that confront it. 'Within a short time in- teresting information concerning the work will be released, and the stamps will be placed on sale in factories, stores, efo. They are now in the banks and post office. They will soon be the easiest thing in the country to buy. The committee which will assist Chairman Gilpatric consists of Wil« llam H. Crowell, secretary of the mercantile bureau of the Chamber of Commerce; Herbert H. Pease, rep- resenting the manufacturers; Stanley H. Holmes, representing the schools; Rev. John J. Filtzgerald and Rev. Barle B. Cross, representing the churches; Postmaster W, F. Delaney, Miss Mary A. Campbell and Mrs. A. J. Sloper, representing the ladies’ auxiliary committee; Councilman Abraham Gorbach, representing the New Britain War Bureau; John F, Quinn, secretary of the Central La- bor Union, representing the laboring people, and Noah Lucas, representing the banks. ‘While the Liberty Loan campaigns have resulted very successfully here and in other cittes, it is believed that many persons failed to secure bonds. By the new stamp method, every resi- dent of this city can be of assistance to his country, by applying the slogan of the committee, “save and serve.” POLICE COURT NEWS.

Washington, Dec. 22.— Meatless mince meat another culinary triumph in the art of food conservation. has been brought to the housewives of the country by the national emergency garden commission as a worthy com- panion of pumpkinless pumpkin pie and gingerless ginger bread. The new mince meat, officially de- scribed as a ‘‘camouflage’” was tried on 500 troops on a transport, who pro- nounced it perfect and called for more. Half a package of seeded raisins, half a pound of prunes stewed with lemon juice and peel, one-quarter cup sweet cider, four tablespoons brown sugar; chop the raisins and prunes to- gether and the result is said to be a meatless mince ple which will accord with the food administration’s meat- less Tuesday. As turkey does not violate the meatless day, Xmas dinner may be complete. REMOVE ORGANS., Analysis Being Made Because of Death of Wealthy Man.
