Good Templar Officers Installed by Deputy Smith—Half Pound Frank Haglund presided at the reg- ular meeting of the Good Templars, held in the vestry of the Third Baptist church Monday evening. The officers recently elected were _ installed by Lodge Deputy E. A. Smith. A let- ter from National Secretary Willard O. Wylle of Beverly, who has been elected president of the board of al- dermen of the Templars was read. National Secretary Wylie was elected to the office by a large majority of votes. He is much interested in_the Templars and gives a good deal of his time to the interests of the society. Following the business of the meet- ing a social hour was passed by all present. The half pound auction formed the chief attraction of the evening. Robert McNeeley was the auctioneer and had numerous bids for the promising bundles which he offered for sale. B, A. Smith bought the largest bundie and on invesligating his purchase found that he had two apples, two_ potatoes and a small baz of coal. Others found similar con- tents in their purchases, the largest bundles proving to be the least val- uable. On the whole all were pleased with their purchases the larger part of which were of real value. After one of the most lively meetings ever held adjournment was taken about 10 o'clock. Officers of Young Ladies’ Sodality. At 345 o'clock Sunday afternoon a mesting of the Young Ladies’ Sodality of St. Mary’s parish was called to or- der in the assembly rooms of the church. Rev. J. H. Fitzmaurice, the pastor, presided at the meeting, which was well attended.. Much interest and enthusixsm was shown in the business before the meeting, consisting of the approval of reperts of the officers for the past year and also the election of officers o serve the coming year. The be In a very satisfactory condition, both socially and financially. The elec- tion resuited as follows: President, Miss May M. Reardon; first vice pres- ident, Miss Elizabeth Downes; second vice president, Miss Elizabeth Curran; secretary, Miss Bille O’'Donnell; treas- urer, Miss Elizabeth Malone During the meeting hour the scorers were se- lected for the parish whist .

BAPTIST MINISTERS. Pastors of the County Met with Gro- ton Heights Church. The New London County Baptist Ministers’ association held a meeting Monday at the Groton Heights Bap- tist church, Rev. George R. Atha, pas tor. There was a good attendance of ministers from all over the county Rev. H. E. Anderson read a pape« on the ‘Boy Scouts, troops of which are being formed {n many Baptist church- es hereabouts. City Missionary Rich- ard W. Mansfield of New London rcad a paper on Reaching Young Men. AT THE DAVIS. Vaudeville and Photo Plays. The two vaudeville acts at the Davis for the first half of this week with the inviting photo plays that attend it, make up a bill that attracted good houses on Monday. Headliner in the vaudeville were the Five Old Veterans, whose fiddling, singing of old time war melodies lend a patriotic flavor to the | bill, with an efrect heightened by the special camp scene setting and the na- tional colors drooped over the boxes and freely used through the Old Veterans' act. In the evening, they had an attendance of Sedwick post members, who were the guests of the theater management marching in body from the post building. Bach of the Old Veterans is introduced with a bit of personal history attached which 2dds materially to the interest. Bennington Brothers in a posing and musical and posing turn are the other vaudeville attraction, producing a neat and novel act that wins good hands. The photo plays are full of variety and interest. Some subscribers preserve and frame the New Year's calendars of The Bulletin, which form an interesting set | of historical pictures of local interest.

The other was & proposal by Mayor Murphy that contributions to the sinking fund of the cemstery be asked from all lot owners in Yantic cemtery, who have not already ¢on- tributed to it. His suggestion was made for the purpose of establishing enough of a sinking fund to provide for perpetual care of all lots. Several Absentess. Mayor T. C. Murphy called the meet- ing to order at § o'clock. The absentees disclosed by the roll call were Alder- man Beckley, Councilmen Bailey, Baker and’ Shannmon. As usual the reading of Clerk Moore's minutes of the last meeting were omitted. For the finance committee Alder- man “Gebrath recommended $40 paid to settle Robert McNeeley’s claim for damage to house, fence and walk by a tree falling on it. This was voted. For the police commissioners Alder- man McLaughlin recommended the placing of 1 arc light north of office Reliance Worsted; 1 arc on Central avenue, between Hickory and Second streets, and 1 incandescent on_Pros- pect, between Hickory and Second street. They also recommended that_arc light opposite bridge at falls on Yan- tic street be replaced and the incan- descent taken down. It was so voted. Alderman. Hourigan for the commit- tee on public works committee asked more time to consider removal of tree on Union street on petition of Fred Dziomba. Councilman Kramer presented the petition of C. W. Perkins asking for permit to build two bay windows and alter property on land of M. Bruck- ner on Franklin street. It was referred to the fire commissioners. Clerk Moore read the return of malling the vote of the common coun- cil after the hearing on the matter of the Boswell avenue trolley exten- sion, and the Connecticut Co.s ac- knewledzement of receipt was read. Clerk Moore also read his return of notices given on the Dunham street, Water street and Lafayette street sew. er assessments, and also the sheriff’s returns. Petitions. Ten residents of Newton street, Mary F. Fuller and others, petitioned for an extension of gas pipes in that street. Mayor Murphy stated that while this was not the place to pre- sent such a petition he asked the council to express itself on the mat- ter. Alderman Gebrath moved and it was Voted to refar to water and gas commissioners with council's request that it be granted, A petition of Willlam M. Perkins and others for a light on McKiniey avenue was referred to the police commissioners; also the petition. of Emerson P. Turner and 4 others for a light on Elmwood avenwe.

Mayor Murphy made a few brief suggestions to the councll at the open- ing of the year as follow Gentlemen of the Court of Common Couneil: This belng the first meeting of the year 1913, T wish to extend to you all my best wishes for a happy and pros- perous New Year. % There are a few suggestions I would like to make to the couneil in regard to our cemeteries. No doubt you are aware that the source of revenue from the sale of lots in Yantic cemetery as well as the other cemeteries has ceased, as there are but very few more lots to be sold. I would suggest that the superinten- dent of the cemetery be instructed to write to all lot owners or trustees of estates who have not already contrib- uted to the sinkin~ fund of the ceme- tery department, asking them if they would consent to contribute to said fund enough money to take perpetual care of their lots. There are now about 270 lots taken care of by this fund. 1 this scheme was carried out and enough money in the sinking fund Lo guarantee the future care of all lots in the same way that others are now taken care of by this fund, Yantic cemetery in the future, as it has been in the past, would always be looked upon with pride by the citizens of the city. The mayor explained further that fund that would provide perpetual care for the cemetery. On motion of Alderman Gebrath the suggestion was referred to the public works commit- tee. once ‘m m 1 of the it “where e spoke last season. He sald, o A P fed by Miss Fuller. The Clean Life. k. mh jure at his ad- me Rev. Mr, dress ex) in i § | is_something about the new that makes us thoughtful, that is are inclined to look at the prob- of Jife seriously. You and I are older than we wera when retreating? Have we been facing the sunlight or the shadows? It is the one or, the other. It is @ scientific fact that life, which is ony another term for_activity, {s not at a standstill: it must always be going forward or back ward. Iam firmly convinced that hu- man life is moving forward and up- ward with rapid strides, that cach v brings in its wider and grander hori- zous, and contributes more and more to .general wellbeing. Of course there are individual lapses, far more than we wish, but here as elsewhere it is the “exceéption that proves the rule.” The Clean Page. The new year serves as & boundary line, and boundary lines are every- where in life, either as a fact or as an imagination. Thero is one boundary line in partic- ular that I wish to speak about today. In a score of instances it is referred to in the Bible, and that is the “Book of Life”” The value of a book is condi- tioned by what each page contains. The value of. a year is to be gauged by how we live each day. As it is the page that illumines or blackens the chapter, it is-the daily living that makes the year to be commended or condemned. So then my thought for today is The Clean Page. 3 Every thoughtful man makes & su- preme choice in life. That cholce is the title of the book he makes. BEv- ery act of his life, consclously or un- consclously made, puts something into thah book. How often do we hear that certain authors do or do mot sustain their reputations in certain chapters. How often does a single sentence mar an_entire chapter! How often does one unfortunate act leave a black mark on what would otherwise be a fair reputation! How. important it i8 that the daily page be clean? Orie Chapter Closed. Last Tuesday closed the 1912 chap- ter in our life book. All except the inunence of that chapter is now done. It has gone to the printer, the type has peen set, the proof sheets corrected, the edition struck off, and now it is on the - iarket to be taken by the great distributing wave of publicity to wher- ever the silent language of influence is spoken. When it has)once been gripped_by the public it 1§ no longer ours. We cannot recall it if we would, for it has become a part of eternity itself. Rejoicing or repenting over the closed chapter 18 of no avail now. And the socner we drop things that we can no longer -change, the betier for us. Let the past take care of itself. What Shall We Write? Last Wednesday we took down from the shelves a new ream of white pa- per with blank pages and began & new chapter. Now the question that is go- ing to it us for time and eternity is this: What am I going to make of this page? Shall it be clean or vile, good or bad, strong or wealk? It is the page each day as it comes that “De- mands my soul, my life, my all” It is not tinsel glitter that makes a ‘book valuable. It is not the flourishes The mayor also made the sugges- tion that the finance committee see if they cannot arrange to keep the pub- lic lavatory on the public wharf open during the winter. Mayor Murphy further callea at- tention to the dumping of refuse on Laurel Hill, saying that he did not belleve it was a proper place to dump refuse and he hoped some attention would be given towards stopping it. Alderman Hourigan replied that the lavatory could not be Kept open in Win- ter, he believed, because of freczing, without spending more money on it, and he had had no previous complaint about the Laurel Hill matter the may- or had spoken of. ills Approved. After approving the following de- partment bills the council adjourned at_8.45 o'clock: Fire department, $3,175.33; police department, $2,202.44; gas and electric department, $23.910.72: cemetery de- partment, $528.77; public works de- partment, $3,876.66; flnance depart- ment, $4,680.7¢ ark department, $190.38; Sfony Brook, $9,250; water de- partment, $1,764.37. The statément in Monday's Bulletin as to the location of the Pope memo- rial organ in the Second Congregation- al church was incorrect. The new in- strument will be set up in the same location as the present one.

Meny a vile page is covered with a fine exterior, and many a cheap man masquerades n breadcloth, but the outside clothing makes neither the book nor the man. Fine leather bind- ing cannot prevent a bad book from having a bad influence. Lampblack may be found in a silver platter, but it is lampblack all the same, and if vou touch it you will be smirched with it. You cannot read a page of a vile book without having its imprint on your soul, whether it is in paper cov er or elegant morocco. My friend, what are you writing on the clean white page of today? And what sort of a page are you reading? Remember also that it is not the size of the page that gives the book value, It is not the size of the page nor the number of pages, nor the mecharical execution that makes a book, but the thought and style. Na- than Hale lived by 22 years and Me- thuselah nearly a thousand, but which of the two was the more valuable? It is not ths number of yvears-we live, but how well. My friend, are you writing today the clean, manly page? In the long run this only will coun, and this is my new year's salutation. NEW LONDON ELKS WILL INVADE NORWICH.
