E, H. Cortiss of Thompson is a candidate to succeed himself and the indications at present are that the fight will be principally between Mr, Cortiss and Leon T. Wil- son of this city, Other candidates for the place are W. P. Kelley of Day- ville and George O. Brown of Daniel- son, and Oliver Hitchcock of Wood- stock. Mr. Wilson has been making a very active canvass around the coun« ty. Mr. Cortiss may be depended on to make a hot fight for reappointment. All the candidates have been pledged some portion of the twenty-one votes in the county and if there should hap- pen to be no choice on the first ballot it may,take several more to decide the matter. Several of those entitled to vote have, it is belleved, made no pledge or promise to support any of the candidates.

NEW CITY JUDGE And Assistant Judge Desired by One Local Faction, There was a quiet meeting in this clty Saturday morning which was at- tended by a group of citizens, for the most part prominent, to consider in- troducing & resolution in the legisla- ture recommending ex-Mayor L. H. Fuller for appointment as judge of the city court to succeed the present incumbent, Judge F. F. Ru 1, and also recommending the appointment of Attorney M. H. Geissler to be as- sistant judge, suc(.eer‘.ng L. H. Fuller. The resolution wili probably be pre- sented, as will also_one recommend- ing that Judge F. Russell be re- appointed. The incident is looked up- on by many as a bit of political play between local factions. There was lit< tle said about the meeting in advance and only a few besides those invited to attend were aware of the gather- ing, which was held in the select- men's rooms in the Union block. A prominent citizen said Saturday that he believed that Judge Russell, whose term does not expire until Januaryl- 10, would be reappointed, Transplanting Big Trees at Pomfret. At Pomfret street this cold weather and frozen ground are being taken advantage of as favorable assets for assisting in the transplanting of dozens of big trees that cannot be safely moved at any other time of year, The trees are being moved to more desirable locations about Pomfret school, and on some of the fine coun- try estates of New York and Washing- ton residents, who spend their sum- mers at Pomfret. Some of the trees moved are a foot In diameter, and fifty feet high. The method employed is to cut a circle of liberal diameter about the tree. A trench is then dug around the circumference of the circle, allow- ing the excavators to pry under the roots and free the tree from its fasten- ings in the ground. The frozen earth clings about and protects the roots while the tree Is being lifted out of its original place and moved on a drag to its new location where a hole has been dug for its reception. Supported by guys, the tree is carefully manoeu- vred into the new station, new earth solidly packed about such parts of the roots as may be exnosed and the work completed by carefully restoring the turf surface.

An open meeting was held in St. Ed- ward’'s hall Sunday afternoon and pre- liminary steps taken toward organizing a local council of the Knights of Co- lumbus E. C. Pinney, Willis H. Reed .and M. claring the Christian Endeavor cannot be separated from the church, His topic was How Can I Help Make the Work of My Soclety More Effec- tive? First, certainly not by unjust criticism. The society’s plan is within the church. It may be improved but never aholished, It is a llving, draw- ing, developing movement, adapted to the peeds of any church. It depends greatly on the atmosphere with which it is surrounded. Christian Endeavor is not the<cause of religious indiffer- ence, It needs more enthuslastic sup- port from pastors, churches and par- ents. As the Sunday school is for teaching, 80 is the C. E. society lnr (ralnh!g It is a training school for church, It directs the surplus energy of the young people. Its principle, which 1s devotion to Christ and the church, is sound. No organization can seem as a substitute for individual activity. March with the closest fellowship with the Master, and do what each one be- lieves is God's will. Things Needful. In order to do the best work, some things are necessary. First, fellow- ship with the Christ; second, know the living book, God's Word, It is essen- tia] to the best life. Third, live up to the prayer meeting covenant pledge. Fourth, a faith that the true worker has in God, The future of the church is in the Christlan Endeavor soclety of today, In' the bo and girls. The future of Christlan deavor depends on the individual life. To have a part in the upbuildine of a church, spiritually, is a great privi lege. Training is of no real value, un- less used. Form large plans and carry them out. There is no complete serv- ice without some sacrifice. Rigid dis- cipline makes good soldiers. Keep the ideals high and strive to live up to them.
