Hinchey and his assistants, the red, white and blue eftect being finely carried out, there being shields of American flags and pictures of George Washingtor dis- played about the armory driil shed as reminders of the -approach of thé birthday of George Washington, Many compliments Were received.

As an example of the manliness and broad-mindedness of Dr. P. H. Harri- man, and his respect for a fellow man, regardless of party, attention was called on Monday by a former city of- flcial to the address given by Dr. Har- riman to the special council meetiig Oct. 24, 1899, upon the death of ex- Mayor Hugh H. Osgood, in which he said: It seemed proper and fitting that this body, recognizing the priceless services, the public benefactions and all the attributes that go to make up a loyal and fafibful citizen, as exempii- fled in the lats Colonel Osgood, should do all in our power to honor and re- spect the memory of the deceased. And in view of the fact that, with three exceptions, Mr. Osgood was honored by and did honor to the office of the mayoralty for a longer period than any other ncumbent since the inception of the city government, and for ten years presided with exceptional ability and urbanity over the deliberations of this body, it seems especially fitting that the court of common council should take extraordinary measures towards respecting the memory of the de- ceased. I venture to say that Mr. Os- good, more than any other citizen of the community, was sought for his counsel and advice and the same giver most freely and willingly to rich and poor alike; that no citizen of the cf was identifled with more numerous and diversified business interests than he; that no movement tending toward the socfal, moral or financial improve- ment of the city was ever inaugurated but which received his hearty support and fervid co-operation. It is unnecessary for me and I real: ize my incompetency to properly eulo- gize ex-Mayor Osgood, but were I so able it is entirely unnecessary, for the universal expressions of sorrow ard regret are to my mind the best eulogy that can be pronounced upon any. citi- zen. Mr. Osgood’s life was an open book, and his many public acts and private charities have won for him an everlasting place in the annals of the town history. Truly can we say of him, may his faults be written on the sands of the shore, his virtues on tab- lets of stone. Filled Eyes With Powder.

End Came at His Home in North Main Street as Result of Age. Walsh, aged 83 years, an { Norwich, died suddenly Monday afternoon at his home, No North Main street. Dr. R. W. Kimball was summoned and pronounced death John resident due to age. He had been in his usual health up to Monday and his death comes as an unexpected blow to his friends. Mr. Walsh was born in County Cork, Ireland, coming to this country at the age of 22 years, and has since made his home in this city. He was married in this city 58 years ago to Margaret Foley by Rev. Daniel Kelley He was by trade a stons mason and worked on many of the principal buildings of the city. He worked on St Patrick's church, laying the last stone in_ the spire of the edificz. He had not been actively employed for 20 years previ- ous to his death. He was a_member of 8t. Mary's church and took an active interest in the welfare of the church. He was an honest and upright citizen, winning the respect and esteem of all with whom he camo in contact. His death Is mourned by his many friends in the community. He leaves two daughters, Katherine and Mary Walsh, and a son, Edward Walsh, all of whom reside in this city. There are also several nieces and nephews in Ireland. He was the last of his immediate family. SMILING A HABIT ABUNDANTLY SATISFYING ev. H, J. Wyckoff Speaks to Employ- es of Crescent Fire Arms Co. At his shop talk to the employes of the Crescent Fire Arms company, Monday noon, Re Wyckoff spoke on the topic, The Voice of the The | Louis Rev. Past Smile Song were sung by 0. Potter in a pleasing manner. and Mrs., Mr. Wyckoff said A boy is known by his whistle, a man by his smile. The face is the open page of the hook of human life, and the telitale characters on that rage are expressed by the mouth, vo- cal or silent. There are the smiles of amusement, satisfaction, friendliness and confi- dence. The contagion: of the smile of cour- ago has made heroes of cowards, and carried men through every earthly peril. Tt is the emile that sweetened the face of the mother that bore you, as she willingly went down into the jaws of death to give you life. Can You, her son, smile the smile of such courage? And all these smiles are blended at last in “the smile that won't come of.” TFor smiling finally becomes a habit, not of the facial muscles, but of the will of a man; a habit that re- freshes his weariness and gives him peace of mind, and binds his friends to him, and polds him steady under difficulty and danger; a habit so ahundantly satisfying that I think that if it were my privilege to speak just three words to each man of you, one word iu the morning, one at noon, and | the third at night, I would whisper in your ear, “Smile! Smile!! Smile!!” WILL REPRESENT LODGE OF CONNECTICUT | IP-“ Grand Master Kies and Grand Master Holden Off to Washington ' and Alexardria. ! | | Past Grand- Master George A" Kies | | and Girand Master Justin Holden left Monday night for Washington, D, ., | and.

New England_states, and_that not. withstanding New York has . 47,620 square miles as eompared with 61,000 'square miles in New England, New York state alone has neariy twice as many cattle as. the whole of New England, and its dairy cattle alone exceed the total number of cattle in our New England states. Production of Apples. A gecrease in the production of ap- ples in New England, comparing the years 1899 and 1910, was over one million barrels, whereas the produc- tion in Washington and Oregon is in- creasing at the rate of 60 Yo 100 per cent. We are paying mere for apples on our fruit stands than we are pay- ing for oranges, anywhere from 25 cents to $1.20 per dozen, notwithstand- ing our New England hills produce fruit that is inferior to mone. How many of us stop to think that the pop- ulation of New England and New York city combined, which is almost within the boundaries of New Engalnd, is nearly eleven million people, or one- ninth of the total population of the United States. The fruit grower in California,~Washington and Oregon has discovered this fact and is coming 3,000 miles to supply our market, when the difference in the freight rates alone would yleld the New England grower a handsome profit. I am glad to say, however, that the state of Connecticut is becoming alive to the situation and is today one of the largest peach pro- ducing ‘states in the union, because of the push and enterprise of men like John Hale of Glastonbury, Lyman of Middlefield, Barnes Brothers of Yales- ville, Dean Henry of Wallingford and other large growers.

We have handled since the bureau was estab- lished, in less than ten months, 145, 000 pieces of mail up to Dec. 1st, 1911; 250 propositions, tentative and other- wise, of which 40 per cent. were sat- isfactorily adjusted. More than 1,200 personal calls have been made by rep- resentatives of the bureau.

Engler, Norwich, Conn, Ll.nd made the room ring ingland | & to be able to introduce to so many and to welcome to our midest Wil- linm B. Walker, the president of the Thermos Bottle company, formerly of New York. now of Norwich, Conn. The banqueters rose to their feet with_their cheers of welcome to President Walk-| er whose opening words in response were: “Mr, Mayor, Fellow Guests, and| Fellow Clitzens-to-be." President Walker said that while this was his maiden speech, he shouid wish to be classed as a wooden | Indlan in front of a cigar store if he could not derive inspiration from such a greeting. , He read a number of lei- ters of oppreciation of Thermos, rang- ing all the way from a sheepherder saved in a Wyoming* blizzard to John D. Rockefeller, Woodrow Wilson, Com- mander Peary of North Pole fame, and Lieut. Shackleton of Antarctic fame. He went on 10 show how the Thermos company officers had picked out a zone o move their business to be bounded by a line from Poughkeepsie down to! Manhattan island, and then eastward to New London, and had been Induced | to include Norwich in, that zome. It| was a strong consideration in_deter- | mining the coming here, he said, thati there was no ulterior or seifish motive! attributed to anyone here from begin- | ning to end of the Norwich campaign, Running in Six Months. President Walker roused another | storm of «cheers when he announced | that within six months from tonight| the company expected to be employing | a minimum of 500 hands here, and within three or five years a minimum of 2,000, on the Mason site, and that| the banks of the Thames had no supe- | rior, in his opinion, in New Englana or m»lhl' United States as sites for| manufacturing industries. i Reasons for Coming Here. _As reasons for preferring this sec tien of the country for the locating of | a manufacturing plant, he mentioned | several faots: A population than 38,000,000 people within 12 hours’ ride: parts of 16 states and Canada within the same time limit; low cost of electric power; little if any labor troubles: ‘low freight rates, and the proximi of an agricultural region. Reductions in expense which the company expects to make in removing to Norwich, he said, were rent, $12,000; traffic, $7,000; labor, $9,000: insu etc., $4,000; in making a glas: on one floor instead of four, $12,000; a total of $44,000, from which dcducting bonus of $4,000, would vet remain the annual saving of $40,000, Some Strong Suggestions. He closed with some suggestions which were the signal for another out- burst of cheers, dhen he announced that he stood r: v to place the sum of $25000 available for any worthy purpose for the good of Norwich which the citizens of Norwich wishead to unite. He had been led to belleve, he said, that Norwich had no hotel worthy the name, but the beautiful dining room in which the banquet was held had disabused him of that ide and as he had come prepared to place this amount at the head of a subscrip- tion for building a hotel, he would let the amount stand in the way he had indicated However, if such new hotel been built’ the company would 10 equip it with Thermos bottles from top to bottom with the privilege of naming the hotel Thermos. Fund for Adverising City His second suggestion was for the establishment of a_suitable fund fi advertising the industrial opportun ties which the city could offor, and in his he would desire to he financially interested. He suggested that it might possibly be done in co-operation with New London, to the end that the banks of the Thames might be lined from end to end with an unbroken line of factories. (Great applause,) He | mentioned also as a possibility the s { curing of the Brooklyn nmavy vard for | het Thames river. Hydroaeropine Course. d of his suggestions was for the making of the Thames river the national course for hydroaeroplane races and trials, with fields and hang- ars built at Norwich d New Lon- don . resulting in an incalulible amount of advertising for this section of the state.

I had wondered how she, with her strenuous social | duties and late hours, could so com- | pletely ward off the usual marks of | care and dissipation. | “I don't wear wrinkles in public, nor those horrid rings beneath the eyes,” she continued, “since I've learned what plain, ordinary saxolite will do.

We have one Hill that we afe proud of. It is a level Hill, a square Hill, a Hill that no one dare sten on with impuni- ty.

He welcomed President Walker to the city and called upon every man to do his duty in the way that comes to him for the making of Norwich the best city on earth.
