An unusually large number of the members of the Men's club of the Taftville Congregational church were present and heard C. H. Bedell of the New London Ship and Engine com- pany speak in the club rooms Mon- | day evening. Mr. Bedell gave a ster- topticon lecture on submarines which proved . highly interesting to all. He gave a brief history of the submar- ine, beginning with its invention, | which dates back to revolutionary times. Robert Fulton was ar.cug one of the first to construct one of these | boats. The speaker then went on to modern boats, explaining their con- struction and their wonderful effi- crncy. He told of the devices used 1o insure the safety of the crew In case of accident.

This will be available for the hiring of ve- hicles and pay of auxillary carriers and auxiliary clerks. The first fifteen days of the service will furnish data which the postmas- ters are to forward to the post office department. This will cover total number of local parcels delivered, av-. erage weight, amount of postage on local parcels delivered, total number of incoming parcels dellvered, grand of all parcels dellvered, total number of outgoing parcels dispatched, average weight, amount of postage on parcels dispatched, additional cost of service to January 15th, and estimates for remainder of this and next fiscal vear, covering for vehicles, auxiliary carriers and auxiliary clerks. The stamps which must be used un- der parcels post law effective January 1, 1913, the government is to issue in a special series in twelve denomina- tions and of due stamps in five denom-~ | inations. The parcels post stamps measure inches between perfora- tion lines. The color is red for all de- nominations. In a curved panel across the top, supported by a paneled per- pendicular column at each end, appear the words “U. S, Parcels Post,” in Triangular or- naments occupy both upper corners. | The denomination in large numerals |is in each lower corner, with the title |of the subject and the word “cents” (or “dollar”) between. The subjects of the several denominations are as folio IL, post office (lerl\ 2 carrier; 3¢, railway postal rural carrier; 5S¢, mail train; amship and mall tender; 15¢, auto- mobile eernce 20c, aeroplane carry- ing mail; . manufacturing; 6oc, dalrying;’ 75, harvesting; $L0, fruit tamps are of green and of gn.

Matter of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd class, ginning Jan. 1, 1913, matter of the fourth class bearing ordinary postage stamps will be treated as held for pos- tage. The following are new points re- | garding the service: All parcels must bear a return card from the sender. Provision i8 made for the indemni- fication of shippers, for shipments lost or injured, by insurance or other- wise. The new laws will not in any way | affect the rates on seeds, bulbs, cut- | tings, roots, scions, plants as is un- derstood by such shippers through previous laws. The limit of shipping as it now {stands is expected to be increased as the government has placed orders for scales of the capacity of 20 pounds. The law is interpreted to read that the farmer may mail any sort of pro | duce not too heavy or dangerous, as may the manufacturer or retailer, bur it is within the province of the post- | master general to prescribe how the | goods shall be packed. With Postmaster Caruthers as with all others, the operation of the par- | cels post is largely a matter of con- jecture, yet as to just how much it will amount to, and what provisions for extra men will have to be made to take care of it. One factor that will equip the Norwich office to handle it better than many others is the large number of rural free delivery carriers from here. There are nine and they will help out lot, master Caruthers expects. Some time ago the postmaster, requested by the department, sent le ters of inquiry to Norwich merchants who might be expected to use parcels post, asking them to give timates of how much would have to send that w y responses were received, furnishing data for summarizing and sending to Washington. a th WOMEN WANT WOMAN , FOR'COLLEGE HEAD. !
