Real American bie is hard to obtain in this section t France. But one day recently pies ade of excellent pastry appeared. he price of a single pie in some cases pas 17 francs. The pie-hungry soldiers cheerfully aid the price until the officers, sus- ecting that white flour in some un- nown way, was being furnished to ut on the prohibition. An investiga- ion 1s being made to determine tho lource of the flour used. OPPOSE PRESENT SYSTEM. When the directors of the Chamber f Commerce meet again, it is prob- ble that the matter of changing the ehting plans by the Connecticut jght & Power company will be thor- ghly threshed out. Under the old ystem, the display windows were ehted every evening until 11 o'clock, hen a company representative went ffound and shut them off. The com- any recently adopted a lightless night lan, also ordering that all lights in indows be placed under the meter stem. This would require each herchant to turn out his lights when e saw fit, a plan that evidently does ot meet with approval. Absolutely Removes ndigestion.

Weld, now in the army. Mention will also be made of the other third ward vacancy caused by the resignation of Councilman J. C. Andrews who is likewise in govern- ment service. As vet no candidate has been:brought forth for this posi- tion. A fifth ward councilman is also needed to succeed John Tomszewski who has been raised to the position of alderman. The health department will also introduce a proposed ordinance gov- erning the care of drug stores, T taurants, etc, providing for licensing them and also providing for a fine of not more than $50 for violations. The water board too, will make a | |§ report in which it will recommend | immediate work on the Burlington tunnel. TAKEN ILL AGAIN. City Clerk Alfred L.
