Electric L Department Will Start Today Erecting the Poles For the New . Line—Expects a Month Will be Required For the Job— Supt. W. I. Bosue has everything ready for the city gas and eledtric de- partment to bezin work this morning in running the line for the new lights | for Norwich Town which were voted | at the town meeting, and the work will be started from the city line fn Noria Washington street, near the residen e of Willis Austin. There are about #) new lights to be placed, these neins of the incandescent stregt light type, popularly known as bug lights. Tt is provided that they are to ex- tend the length of Town from Harland’s corner along West Town street past Peck’s corners to tha Norwich Town Green and to the enl| of West Town street. Whether tuis will carry them to the Bean Hill bridse | or not has not been definitely deter- mined, depending upon whether it is onsidered that West Town street ex- tends that far. Altogether about T. will have to be set, the new ones street_aud | to 85 new potes | it is expected that the work can be done in about a month if the weather is favorable, but at this season of the vear there 18 a chance that bad weach- er will interfere with the work apd prolong it beyond the expected time. The city department does the work and is paid for, it by the town, which a propriated $600 for this purpose atthe annual town meeting on Oct. 10th. The city’s commercial lines for house lighting already run up to the Congregational church at the Norwich Town Green. These will be carricd northward at same time as doing this other work, so that houses above th= Green wilj come into the zone whe they can get electric light service fr the city plant. For the past six weeks now, Supt Bogue said on Wednesday evening, tiic Uncas Power comvany has had wacer enough at their dam to operate th plant at Scotland, so that they nuv been furnishing the lights for the ci without help from the city plant.

The Sphere of Influence Was the Topic of Rev, C. H. Ricketts. There was an audience of about 150 at the fifth of the series of shop talks conducted on Wednesday noon at the plant of the MecCram-Howell Co., by Rey. C. H, Ricketts, who spoke on The Sphere of Influence, which, he =aid, denotes the territory in which a power exercises authority or an indi- vidual may be expected to influence his surroundings; ~ Russia claims a sphere of influence in Persia, but its influence is little felt in America. The sphere of influence of the individual taken out of the rank and file is con- fined to narrow limits. A men's posi- tion often fixes his sphere of influence. The action or speech of the kaiser of Germany influences all Europe, while an ordinary individual's actions have little effect outside his immediate sur- roundings. | BEvery man finds himself in a world which he may make better or worse. God wants him to fill the place in which he is located with the richest quality of life. Eve man faces the question. How am 1 using this sphere of influence? All responsible action in- fluences oneseif and the other fellow; the two centers around which human action revolves. Much of the trouble jof this world comes fom using aright neithor oneself nor the other fellov | Let every man ask himself honestly, What am 1 doing in my sphere of in- fluence? A man must be either a2shin- ing light, shedding cheer and bright- ness on his surroundings, or he is a | ark object, casting gloom and mel- ancholy about him; he is either a help- ful lighthouse, or a dark, dangerous reef., ~Are you making good in the lit- tle world God put vou in? Speaking | along these lines. he said: First: A man's sphere of influence | in the workshop. The men in this shop | do mot work all aione, but they work | together, sharing the same room. ery day each man comes in contact with certain other men, and this forms cxhausted th= provision that nad been | his working world.

The wife and children have a claim to considerate attention. If a man is weak he will be overbearing towgrds those dependent upon him and wil®be feared and despised; but if he is strong he will look upon the mem- bers of his famil his equals and will be idolized.
