Although the committee has worked hard compile a complete | report on the water department’'s plan, the work was so extensive that il data and details have not vet been secured and until they are. and inter- ested parties are given an opportun- ity to explain their views, no fair re- port can be made. Hence, at tomor- row night's meeting a_motion for further adjournment will probably be | made. This afternoon Mayor Quigley, | Chairman O. T. Curtls, City lngineer | H.

Crean of the Ist Company, 152d depot brigade, at Camp has written to Mayor Quigley he says that some of the hoys are feeling a little “under the weather,” due to the inoculations against typhoid and smallpox. He also adds that from present indications the men will have more or an opportunity to show patience than they will have to exhibit bravery. The food is good, he said, but tho drilling and long hikes are hard for the new recruit. Private Crean writes that he feels sorry for the drafted men of foreign birth who cannot understand English well as it makes it hard for them at drill.

Thus far the campaign among business men has been dormant and the merchants ‘have shown little interest in this nec- essary investment but from today on a vigorous drive is to be made by Daniel M. Collins, who has charge of Thrift Stamp sales among retailers, and anyone who knows Mr. Collins realizes that Plainville is about to redeem itself in this respect and go skyrocketing toward the top. With an allotment of $2,882 for the vear, Plainville retailers have purchased only $600 in Thrift Stamps and it is a public secret that this amount has been taken for the greater part two or three men to whom the importance of the Thrift Stamp has appealed. Liberty Bonds and Red Cross campaigns should not be permitted to overshadow the Thrift Stamp. From this source alone, thousands of doliars trickle into the treasury at Washington and help to swell the tide that will eventually on- gulf the kaiser and all the kaiserlings of the Central Empires. The pur- chase of Thrift Stamps is a patriotic duty and every merchant and every celrk should subscribe stated amounts weekly if the honor of Plainville is to be upheld, It is a fact that s-hool children and girls who work in the shops for a living have far outdistanced the re- tailers in regard to the purchase of Thrift Stamps and it is a fact that this has brought a blush of shame to those who have the interests of the town at heart. The hour has ar- the clerks to realize that the United States is at war, Slight personal sacrifice is all that is necessa A quarter a day may keep the kaiser away. ‘Wake up, or forever remain conscious, German an by un- Photographs Wanted. The local council of defense has received a communication from the state council requesting that an effart be made to secure photographs of bridges, towns, towers and different localities now occupied by the Ger- man forces in France and Belgium, and that part of Germany west of Belgium, running north and south of Hamburg. Thase having such photo- graphs should notify S Guwillim, chairman of the local War Bureau, who will collect them and send them to the War Department. Fishman Fined. John Wright, a well-known fishman, of West Queen street, who was arrest- ed last Friday night by Officer Philip Marino for breach of the peace and drunkenness, was given a hearing late vesterday afternoon before Justice . P. Prior. Wright was fined $3 and costs, which he paid, and was released. Health Report. Health Officer J. N. Bull made his monthly health report yesterday in which he states that there were uo communicable diseases in town dur- ing May. Stores Close.

In this city are numecrous people who have travelled through the oc- cupied sections of Irance and Bel- gium and doubtless they have many valuable pictures of strategic places. It is such pictures and drawings that the government desives. Another matter taken up by the war bureau last night was a plan to stimulate the increased use of milk as a food product. Demonstrations tending to show the relative food values of milk and other foods will be made shortly which will tend to prove that milk at 16 cents per quart is more nourishing and eco- nomical than some other foodstuffs a: greater cost e 1o JACKSON LEAVE Willlam H.
