NORWICH BULLE TIN, FRIDAY. DECEMBER 27, 1912 ESTERLY AND SUBURBAN POINTS, High School Frats, Supposedly Suppressed, Still in Existence —Death of Mrs. Charles A. Morgan—Christmas Day Weddings—Mistuxet Encampment Elects Officers. As a recult of the combined efforts of the Westerly school committee and the superintendent of schools, the se- cret societies of the Westerly High scliool, ang there are three of them, were supposedly put out of existence. However, the societies still exist and flourish like unto the biblical green bay tree. The members of the H. T. S. society held their annual banquet at Peters’ Spa, beginning at ten o'clock the earlier part of the evening having bey spent with the Misses Buffum at their home in Main street. This so- ciety is composed of young ladies, and, 45 a matter of course, the doings at the banquet and preceding social ses- slon are kept strictly eecret.” The an- nual session of the H. T. S. club was held Tuesday evening in Caledonian hall and next Saturday evening members of the M. V. C. society will banquet in Elks' hall. In order to aveld expulsion, those members who attended the school at the time the officlal decree of dis- bandment was proclaimed by the school authorities, agreed not to so- licit memberehip from among the stu- dent body, and this agreement, so far as known, has not been yviolated, and public initiations are no more. But there was nothing in the agreement that was binding upon the members of the societies that were bevond the pale of the school authorities, there- fore the new members are now select- ed from among ll\? graduating classes. Clara Tilford Rogers Morgan, wife of Charles A. Morgan, died W edneeday afternoon at her home in Elm street after being confined to her heme for y four months. Mrs. Morgan was of most lovable disposition and was ever intent on making happler the lives of her acquaintances. Her generous acts, though without ostentation, were so numerous that she was known as one of Westerly's most charitable wo- men. In consequence her death is mourned by people in all stages of life. Mr. and Mrs. Morgan were married 1888, Mrs, Morgan was inth year. She attended Baptist church. Frederick M. Decker, P r of the Pawcatuck Con: tional church, and resident of Iy, is mow superintendent in’ charge of the Providence church house and its work, which is of a missionary char- acter. At the exercises at the house Christmas evening, Mr. Decker gave an address on the topic, A Christmas Gift of a New Life Alm. A surprise for Rev. Mr. Decker was planned by his assistants in the presentation of a new office chair for use in bufiding under comstruction. gleo presented another chair hy men Yho had been aided by the institution. former While Westerly has the distinction ducing the largest and best of turkeys, it now comes to the fore with the most scrawny and lightest of all birds known to turkeydom. This apolegy had Jegs and neck longer than the usual, while the body was about the wize of & small bantam. The dead weight of this particular turkey was less than two pounds. During Christmas day this mon- strosity changsd hands many times, veach buyer being Intent on evening up with some other easy mark. Finally ‘the bird passed into the possesajon of a colored man, who declared he would take it to his home to give his cat an appetite tor a square meal.

Y.—"My hands used to chap and bleed and they pained me very much. When I put them in water they used to burn terribly, espe- cially in hot water. My hands looked dirty; that was because they were so chapped. ‘The knuckles used to crack and bleed and 1 suffered terrible pain. I tried different remedies but they never did any good. A friend told me to try Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment. I got some and made & lather from the Cuticura Soap and bathed my bands, then I dried them and put the Cuticurs Ointment on and put on a pair of old gloves. I was surprised to see how my hands were healed. They used to be red and rough and now they are soft as velvet. I tried the Cuticura Soap and Olnt~ ment for a week and they got fine. I have no more trouble with my hands since I always use Cuticura Soap and I can't praise it enough to all my friends.” (Signed) Mrs. M. Weierman, Dec. 22, 1911. For pimples and blackheads the following 1s a most effective and economical treatment: Gently smeartheaffected parts with Cuticura Ointment, on theend of the finger, but donot rub. Wash off the Cuticura Ointment in five minutes with Cuticura Soap and hot water and continue bathing for some minutes. This treatment; 18 best on rising and retiring.

A metter THE TRUTH r: The Interstate Commerce Commission at Washington, after two months consideration of the accident at Westport, has recommended as follows: “Railroads ought to unitedly experiment with the automatic train stop until a device of practica- bility for general use shall be available.” The accidents at Bridgeport in 1911 and at Westport in 1912 were exact duplicates. The engineers violated the rules of the road and passed all signals and warnings and went to their death carrying several passengers with them. ical device. Let us not blame them. Let us all co-operate to eliminate human error by mechan- The inventive genius of mankind has never yet paused before any public need. The need of the present ,to more thoroughly safeguard life on even the best built and best equipped railroads, is that which the Interstate Commerce Commissioners recommend—an automatic train device that shall set the air brakes or close the steam throttle, or both, when a train fails to stop on signals. tier.
