King Resigns from Tubbs’ —Stickpin Given Him. At the regular meeting of Tubbs’ band for practice in their rooms on Monday evening, Frank E, King pre- sented his resignation as director, stat- ing that he did it for business reasons as he found th# other duties would not allow him time to devote attention enough to the band leadership. It was with much regret that the res- ignation was received but a few of the boys who had learned during the day what was coming were prepared for the occasion and having _circulated among the band members had a dia- mond and ruby stickpin on hand which W. R. Stevens presented to -the pop- ular member and leader. It is with much regret that the band members see Mr. King drop the lead- ership. He was elected director a year ago, and before that time had held the place for a number of years during the incapacity of the old esteemed leader, Charles W. Tubbs. While Mr. King has been director the interest in the band and attendance at its meetings, as well as the quality of the music, has been of a constantly improving standard which have made the past few years among the most satisfactory in_its history. Definite arrangements about a per- manent successor have not been made, but John M. Swahn has been appoint- ed acting director. He is a musician of ability and a leader who is expected to secure good results in the band work. Hotels and Restaurants Busy. Because of the Sunday school con- vention, Manager James T.

There are more kinds of ways of fooling peopls ahout furs than there are animals in America. There is only one sure pro- tection in fur buying and that is to consult a merchant in whom you have confidence and to rely on his word. To begin with you be prejudiced in favor of the moerchants, whe advertise in live papers like The Bulletin, They believe in themselves or they wouldn’t advertise. The newspaper believes in them or it wouldnw't print their advertisements. can well Before cheesing yeur furs Tread the advertising .carefully, See what yeur merchants have to say, Weigh their claims and decide for yourself. But whatever the particular reason or reasens which will govern yeur cheiece—the fact that a merchant’s cenfidence and reputation permit him to come straight out in public day after day and ask for yeur patronage is mighty good evi- dence in his favor. ) Rev. and Mrs. Willlam T.

In Carpenters’ hall on Tuesday even- ing there was a meeting of the Nor- ‘wich Central Labor union, at which re- port was made from the grievance committes upon the present status of the Garment Workers' strike. It cov- ered the result of the conference held Sunday afternoon between represeta- tives of the manufacturers and the grievance committee, and also later conferences that have been held, In the report it was stated that the figures recently published by the man- ufactorers to show what wages were paid in the shops were substantially correct, but that the grievance com- mittee had learned that the employes were working from 66 to 70 hours to get 59 hours’ pay in a number of cases. Some of the women employes were present at the Central Labor union meeting, telling of conditions as ‘to wages and time in the shops. It was further reported that through the grievance committee an offer had been made to the manufacturers to submit the present difficulty to arbi- tration, but it had been declined. The offer made to the manufacturers was to submit the matter to a committee whose members should consist of rep- resentatives of the firms and as many delegates from the employes as there were representatives from the firms. These were to select ome of three persons to act as referees, whose @ecision should be binding on both sides. This the garment workers were ready to agree to, but the manufactur- ers declined., There was also & report that mar- ufactugers had offered to take back their women employes as individuals, but that those who had been active in the strike were told that they would have to make a deposit of $20 not to strike again in twe years. At one time the e seemed near- ly settled in' the course of the nego- tiations. The employers at the Nor- wich Shirt & Overall company to a 55 hour day amd to a very slight advance which was less than what the employes had made in their de- mands, but when it came to the ques- tion of a shop commission, which was insisted upon by the employes, the manufacturers declared positively that they would not agree to that and the negotiations came to an end. As the matter stands now, it was stated, con- ditions are about back where they were when the strike started. After the Central Labor Union meet- ing Sam Rancher, whe is president of the newly formed union, said that he would personally pay $500 to anvone who would prove that the garment workers’ union had brought Black Handers here to scare the Italian girls who went to work. FIRE MARSHAL REPORTS ON SCHOOL INSPECTIONS Sends Statistics to State Board of Education—Parochial Schools in the Exempt Class. Fire Marshal Howard L. Stanton has recently forwarded to the state board of education, as he is required to do by statute, his report of inspection of the school buildings of the town in the course of which he inspected 18 buildings of the town schools, the county home and the parochial schools. He is required to report on construc- tlon, number of stories, kind of exits, what is the provision as to fire es- capes, and whether the buildings are exempt from the law covering upon fire escapes. The parochial schools, he says, are all in the exempt class, as they have modern buildings with broad, easy stairways and the necessary exits.

There was prayer by General Secretary Edwin Hill of the Y. M. C. A. and solos were rendered by Rev. Mr. Chappell, being accompanied by Miss Harriet Coit. Rev. Mr. Chappell spoke of the mis- sion laid by the Lord on Moses to bring the Israelites out of Egypt and emphasized the point that Christ has wse for us whatever our daily tasks and abilities. In closing he said: Can you lift a burden for some fel- low man today? Do it. Can you speak a simple word of cheer to some lopely heart? Do it. Can you sing a song to some weary soul? Oh, do it. Can you carry a bouquet to the sick There are those who need it now. A great marble cathedral was near- ly finished. One window had been orgotten. An old man, broken with vears, asked the privilege of making that window from bits of other win- dows, and to set it in its place. His request was granted. The day arrived for the dedication. The bishop arose to deliver the sermon he had prepared for the occasion. Just then the sun- light streamed through that window and transfigured the face of the bishop. The window the aged man had framed became a flashing jewel and attracted the attention of the large congrega- tion. The bishop put aside his stately sermon and chose for his text, “The rejected stone has become the head of the corner.”” What did this old man have in his hand? Only broken glass, but he made the best use of it for the cathedral of his Master. PINOCHLE CLUB. Pettis Scores High This Week— Threatens Bailey for First Place.
