The gathering wiil be, perhaps, the most enthusiastic yet held by the G.

The recommendation of the com- mittee that the fortieth anniversary of the institution of the division and the seventy-fifth anniversary of the founding of the order be observed on Aug. 27 and Aug, 31, was actec upon favorably at the meeting of Division No. 1, Ancient Order of Hibernians in New London, Sunday afternoon. It was in special meeting that the divi- sion received- the repvort of the com- mittee from County President James C. Sullivan, chairman of the division’s committee, On Aug. 27 the division will receive holy communion at mass at St. Mary’s Star of,the Sea church. In the even- ing of that dayv it is proposed to have solemn vespers with an appropriate sermon. Rev. William Keefe of Vol- untown, county chaplain of the order, has been invited to preach. Rev. Tim- othy M. Crowley, D. D., of New Lon- dom, will celebrate the mass, On Thursday, Aug. 31, the division will give a picnic at Armstrong park at which state and county officers and Hibernians from other cities will be present. A good number of Hibernians from Norwich are planning to go down. SPANISH WAR VETERANS. The war veterans of the nation will meet in their annual encampments late next month, the Civil war survivors congregating at Rochester, N. Y., for the week beginning August 21, while their younger brethren, the veterans of the Spanish war. will have Okla- Alteration Sale WILL START TODAY. i There will be many changes in different depart- ments, so to avoid changing stock from one de- partment to another, everything will be sold at sacrificed prices.

A, Hag- | berg, of Norwich, H. A. Dorsey,- of New London, R. O. Snow, of Willi- mantic, A. D, MacIntyre, of Putnam. The delegates-at-large include W. R. Harrington, of Willimantic and John J. Lawless of New London. Former Commander-in-Chief Charles ‘W. Newton, of Hartford will be at the convention, holding a seat because of his having held the national office. The present commander-in-chief is Joseph R. H. Jacoby, of Seattle, who was recently appointed United States marshal for the western district of ‘Washington. The 1907 convention of the United Spanish War veterans voted to hold the 1908 session at Oklahoma City, but the camp at that place was unable to secure the necessary guarantees or railroad rdtes, and so the convention went to Cedar Point, O., in that year. Since that time Oklahoma City. camp has renewed its applications for the convention and at last year's meetings in Denver; Col, it was voted to hold the 1911 encampment in - Oklahoma City. There are now 725 camps in the country and, despite the fact that Ok- lahoma City is rather out of the way, it is expected that a large majority of the camps will be represented. Next year's encampment Spanish War veterans will in all likelihood go to Atlantic City, N. J., as the west has had the conventions for the past three years, and a move- ment is on foot to “give the East a rhow.” Just what the Oklahoma City camp can give the delegates in the way of entertainment is an un- known quantity. Atlantic City’'s of- ferings in this line, however, are too well known to require mention here. ODD FELLOWS. In Uncas and Shetucket lodges this week there were good summer at- tendances and though no work is be- ing dene during the hot weather, there are a number of candidates on the waiting list and after September 1, there will be plenty of degree work, both lodges working together, one tak- ing the first degree and the other the second. Just now Odd Fellows are looking forward to the outing of the home in Groton on August 5, and it is the gen- eral opinion that this date will prove more satisfactory to the majority of the Three Linkers than has Labor day in past years. From Hartford there is to be an excursion of 500 and as usual Norwich Odd Fellows will have a good representation. The annual summer outing of the I O, 0. F. Veteran association of Con- necticut, which was to have been held “on Bun- of the at Port Jefferson, Long Island, Tues- day, came to grief outside of the breakwaters at New Haven. Nearly 100 members Qf the association, rep- resenting various towns throughout the state, took the steamer Elm City, from New Haven for Port Jefferson. ‘When the steamer had proceeded just outside of the breakwaters, the gen- erator of the engine failed to work. A hurried consultation was held on board the steamer, and it was decided to hail a passing tug, which landed the excursionists at Lighthouse Point. U pon the arrival there the committee of arrangements held an interview with the manager of the Lighthouse Poine hotel, who had dinner prepared for the party. This mishap did away with the pre- arranged programme of going to Port Jeffercon and there meeting the Port Jefferson lodge and it also prevented the athlelic events. The excursionists enjoyed themselves at the Point until 5 p. m., when they returned to their homes. The committee of arrange- ments consisted of L.eopold DeLeeuw, of Hartford, T. D. L. Manville, of An- sonia and George B. Hoggson, Henry Hillman and William S. Hutchison, of New Haven, HEPTASOPHS. An outing to be held sometime in August is the big thing that Norwich Conclave, No. 424, is looking forward to just now. At the regular meeting Monday night in A. O. H. hall, with Archon James J. Flynn as the presid- ing officer, this outing committee was appointed: John I°. Cochrane, Daniel ‘Williams, James T. Carey, Edward Comerford. They will decide definite- ly upon the place and date, and report at the next meeting, August 12, but wherever or whenever the time comes, the Heptasophs are pretty sure to make it the customary success. OWwWLS. Two new applications were read and accepted at the regular meeting of Norwich Nest, No. 1396, O. O. O, on Tuesday evening, President Ashley T. Boon occupying the chair. Norwich Owls are looking forward with a considerable degree of interest to the state field day to be held at Lighthouse Point, New Haven on Au- gust 19. There are to be the usual athletic games a fine list of prizes. Norwich st is planning to have its team with its nobby white duck uniforms in the competition with the other Nests, and there is no .ap- pareni reason why it should not cap- ture some award. The auditor’s report of the books for the term is extremely satisfactory, showing a balance of $1,200 in the bank. The matter of holding a picnic has been given up. ELKS. Norwich Lodge, No. 430, held its July meeting on Thursday evening with Exalted Ruler Allen C. Mathews in the chair ond with a good summer attend- ance. One candidate was put through the initiatory paces in an excellent manner and more work for future meet- ings is assured by the proposal of sev- eral new names. The committee that has the annual outing of the lodge in charge is ex- pected to bring in a report on the next meeting night, and at that time some- thing definite in regard to this always notable occasion will undoubtedly be decided. ROYAL ARCANUM. Thames Council, No. 1851, had an in- teresting session on Wednesday even- ing in Foresters hall, a noteworthy fact about the meeting being the presence of every officer of the council. Regent W. T. Curry presided. The council was honored by the presence of District Deputy George F. Adams of Norw'ch Council, No. 720, on his official visit. He took the opportunity to congratu- late the council upon the interest shawn by its officers and brothers and his remarks were bright and entertain- ing. Orator John Aubrey also con- tributed to the pleasure of the com- pany by his words. Brother John ‘Wonnocott drew the payment of his assessment. District Deputy George A. Adams paid an official visit to Pequot coun- cil in Stonington, at its regular meet- ing Monday evening. He was pleas- antly entertained and gave a talk for the good of the order. Grand Regent Edward F. Pride, of Bridgeport. state grand regent of Royal Arcanum, has tendered his res- ignation as the supreme officer of the order in this state to take effect Au- gust 1, as on that date he takes up his residence in New York city. For some time past Mr Pride has been con- nected with the Bridgeport office of the Standard Coupler company and recently was advanced to the position of secretary and assistant treasurer of the company, making it necessarg for him to »~ Jocated at the New xork ot un-{ jun- Seven Great-Great-Grandchildren. - On Monday two of the glder mem- bers of the Seventh-day Baptist church were laid to rest —Burrill W.

Fred C. Allen, attorney at law, of Boston, is visiting this week at the home of his father, Hon. E. R. Allen. Miss Ethel M. Durkee visited friends in Pawtucket Monday and Tuesday. Attendants at the Seventh-day Bap- tist church were much pleased last Saturday to hear again the boy preacher, - Willie Haigh. Miss Sarah A, G. Wells is quite out of health.

You’ll grow tired of the old-fashioned way of washing with its long hours, washtub slavery and backache. Then you’ll try the Fels-Naptha way.
