M‘VOM’W BERLIN NEWS ‘PATRIOTISM 15 TOPIC OF SPEECH Captain Lockhart Defivers Inter- esting Talk at Grange Hall g oo LIVELY COURT SESSION HELD Hull Brothers Arraigned Before Judge Griswold.—Rev. Watson Woodruff Accepts Call to Manchester—“Cow- boy Night’—Berlin Bits. “Patriotism” was the topic of very interesting talk delivered by Cap- tain Charles E. Lockhart at the pa- triotic meeting of the Berlin Grange held in Grange hall on Damon’s Hill last evening. Captain Lockhart in his talk, strongly brought out the need for more pariotism today than was necessary during the war. “The people | he said, have too soon forgoften the struggles and strifes of many soldiers during the war who were only fighting to save the loved ones at home. What the majority of the boys did in France was only remembered at the time the war was at its height but was soon forgotten when the Armistice was sigzned and the soldiers returned to the United States soon to be placed in hospitals where they will stay for life. others for a short time, some to return to a land where they have no friends or relatives and others to come home, to a glorious welcome. Even the government has shown in many instances, cases where is has not aidedl the ex-servicemen. To cite a personal instance, I have an Armenian iiving at my home in New Haven who was formerly from New Britin. He was badly wounded while serving in France and even today suffers greatly from the wounds. When he asked for compensation from the United States government they wrote back and told him that they have no record of him ever being wounded while in the sery- ice and could not award his compen- sation. Another object of fate to be th Dempsey-Carpentier fight which oc cured a few days ago. Carpentier, n man who fought for his country went down defeat from the hands of a man who did not shoulder a gun for his country. But time alone will tell which is the better man, the Captain said. In a few words Captain Lockhart told of the good the R. O. T. C. train- ing does for High school pupils and hoped that Meriden and New Britain would retain the courses they are now offering. Previous to his talk, Captain Lockhart told of his meeting Orville and Harold Ventres in France. The two instances were brought to his mind when their mother, Mrs. Grace Ventres, introduced the speak- er, e Harold Ventres was the only man in the army who was promoted by Cap- tain Lockhart. He was made sergeant from a corporal. The meeting with Orville however was not as Dleasant a one As ‘was that withHarold as in the case of the former an argument re- sulted which however ended with the two men leaving on friendly terms. Interesting Program. There was a good attendance at the meetin; last night and a very interesting program was carried out in addition to the speaking of Cap- tain Lockhart. The address of wel- come was made by Worthy Master Joseph Wilson. A quartet rendered several somgs and there were many recitations, Mrs. Grace Ventres was and much credit goes to her for the success of the meeting. Accepts Call. Rev.

Stillman, PLAINVILLE NE ‘GIRCLE T’ OBSERVES FIRST ANNIVERSARY Factory Paper Passes-Successiul Year SCHOOL BOARD MEETING Health Report Shows Excellent Con- ditions—Fourth Celebrator Shoots Through Window—YVita] Statistica for Month of June—Items of In- terest. A year ago this month, the first edition of the Trumbull Electric Man- ufacturing company’'s paper, “Insida the Circle” made its appearance. The pPaper deals wifh the doings of the factory employes and other interest- ing items about the town in general. The paper is entirely in the hands ot the men and women of the factory and has passed its first birthday with pro- nounced success. Taking this oppor- tunity of celebrating its first anni- versary, the editors have thanked those Who so ably contributed towards the edition and the criticisms extend- ed which -tended to make it the suc- cess which it has proven to be. The editors have strived to pub- lish every item which has been given them without giving any one partic- ular person a knock, unless said knock carried a hidden compliment. The most interesting articles are the “Old Emplpyes’” and the “War Vets' including the cartoons by H. Stillman. The Clinic by Dr. J. N. Bull is always interesting as it deals with the care of the health and other things relat- ing to first aid and safety in the plant. Those who have aided materially in making the paper the success it is, are as follows: = Editors-in-chief: L. L. Barstow, H. Mrs. E. H. Marcham; staff edjtors: Wilfred Dionne (photo- graphs), Chas. E. Livingston (sports), Mrs. E. H. Marcham (woman’s dept.), H. B. Stillman, T. A. Lyman, Harry/| Weldon. General News: Chas. Klatt, Hayden Griffin, R. E. Morrill, Anna Burgess, Edith Cook, Nellie Donahue, Ellen Grooman, Lillian Miller andl Olga Lundberg. It is also understood from no un- certain origin that Senator John H. Trumbull has pulled strings to guide the publication through troubled pe- riods and has been a leading factor in the success of one of Connecticuts best factory publications’ Tha magazine this month has an interesting article of the experiences of John Sharr during his service In the army. John was assigned to the 103d Engineers, Company F, 28th Di- vision, and sailed for France in May, 1918. He reached the front at Cha- teau Thierry in June of that same year. He went through the war an.d Was not wounded after many experi- ences. Sporting Editor Charles Livingston has compiled a record of the Quoit league which is now half over. The Press Room leads so far with other departments coming a close second. The announcement is made of the coming wedding of Miss Lillian Mil- ler, assistant nurse at the plant, to J. Harold Williams, of Northfield, Vt. Acknowledges Error. Umpire J. J. Fortin, who gave what is claimed as a raw decision at the Unionville-Plainville game Sunday, June 26, has forwarded a letter to Manager Allan Bailey of the local team acknowledging his error and further stating that the game would have been won by the locals had the decision been correct. The letter in detail i3 as follows: “On Sunday, June 26, I umpired a game of ball between Unionvilla and Plainville, this game being played in Plainville, Conn. In the ninth inning, with the score tied, two out and the Plainville club batting, with a man on third, I gave an unlawful decision as foilows: “When the Unionville pitcher wound up before delivering the ball to the batter, the man on third ran toward home plate. When tha ball way delivered he stopped going to- ward home. The Unionville catcher jumped in front of the Plainville hit- ter to receive the ball thrown by his pitcher, believing, of course, that the man on third was coming in. T called a ball on the batter, when 1 should have allowed the man on third to come in and the batter to take his base, due to interference by the catcher. “This decision cost Plainville the game, as Unionville securéd a run in the tenth and Plainville did not. Al- though I do not want to belittle the Unionville club in any way, I am anx- ious tG clear myself before the sport- ing public- and state here that the game would have been won by Plain- ville had I given the correct decision. “J. J. FORTIN, umpire.” C. of C. Meeting. The Chamber of Commerce will hold its regular monthly meeting to- morrow night. Many important items will be discussed, and plans made for improvements to the town, will be the order of the evening. Ong matter which will be heard from will be in regards to the pro- posed fire protection for the Gram- mar school building. The commit- tee will make a report on its investi- gation. It is proposed to place a hydrant in the rear of the building and several lengths of hose inside the school halls. This will be great improvement and insure greater safety for the buildin i Chief Edward P. Prior an Wiliiam Cafferty have been looking into the question and will report on i A report on the Bundle Day cam- paign which the Chamber of Com- merce fostered will also be heard. This drive for clothes for the needy of the town and the Near East Re lief was a complete success and the chamber did ail in its power to male it such. The people of the town re- sponded splendidly. Plans for the annua] outing which is always looked forward to, will be discussed. Last year it was held at Lake Compounce and wag a decided a a | ROSCOE PIPP- success. The only thing which did not appeal to all of the merchants and members was the fact that the event was held on a Saturday after- noon. This being the case, they were not given the opportunity to at- tend it as their business compelled them to stay at the Stores. Many are of the opinion that the affair should be held on a Wednesday aft- ernoon as all the clerks would have a chance to go and enjoy the ex- cursion. School Board Meeting. The Town School committee will hold a meeting tonight. The teach- ers’ contracts will be the main topic of the meeting and various other important matters pertaining to the to the school will be discussed. The school board does not fear any dif- ficulty in securing teachers for the force this season. Although thers have been five resignations from the regular force, these have been filled with the exception of one. The teachers who have resigngd are as follows: Mrs. Inez Bedford, Mrs. D. Buckley, Mrs. Lauren Lyman, Miss Ruth Raphael and Miss Fisk. The three first mentioned were mar- ried during the school term and would not resume teaching this year. Plenty of applications have been re- ceived for positions and the situa- tion is not as it had been about three vears ago when securing a teacher was a serious matter. Shot Enters Window It was learned that some Fourth of July celebrator had either accidentally or purposely, shot a rifie through the Adams Express Co. window at Rail- road Square: A holg was found in the pane of rlass directly facing one of the desks inside. Had the express agent, Al Richards, been sitting at the desk at the time, it is certain that the shot would have penetrated in the back of his head. The bullet was evidently from a 32 calibre rifile. Investigations are being made. . Weddings Fall Off It is evident that the present in- dustrial depression has some effect on the marriage market as the marriages for the month of June have fallen far below the usual mark. June is gen- erally the month for weddings and there were but five this year. Last year there was total of 14. There has been a comparative small number during this entirc year. Health Report The health report for the month of June shows the town to be in ex- ceptionally good condition. Health Officer Bull reports that there has been but one case of mumps and this one came from New Britain. No com- municable diseases were reported. Vital Statistics The records at the town clerk’s office show that there have been three births during June, one death and five marriage licenses. The real estate market has evidently taken a slump as no deeds were placed on file during the entire 30 days. Plainville Briefs The Tigers baseball team defeated the Methodist church team of Forest- ville Saturday afternoon by the score of 9 to 2 and yesterday afternoon by the score of 1 to 0. Alfred Goddeau has returned to his home at Pittsfield, Mass., after spend- ing an extended visit a the home of Arthur Farrar. Hartley Tufts of Waltham, Mass., a former resident here, was a visitor in town yesterday. Mr. and Mrs. Fred Fruendel have returned from their honeymoon and are making their home at the Maple Hurst.
