There was a large increase in the business of the Norwich post office in the past year, according to the report Jjust compiled’ by Postmaster Willam Caruthers on the year's transactions. In the postal account the galn was $6,850.16, and In the money order ac- count it was $154,176.67. The increase in the postal account, the post office authorities say, is large. ly due to the business done by the American Thermos Bottle company in jpnrcel post packages mailed by them.

For the nine months from April 1 to Dec. 31, 1918, the New London post office showed a gain in receipts of $9.611.21 over the corresponding nine months of the previous year. The total Teceipts were $65,845.11. The gain was due chlefly to the parcel post increase, the absorption of the Groton post office bringing in only $4,129.92. As an instance of how the parcel post has changed the method of ship- it will be interesting to note that the receipts of the New London post office for De- cember, 1912, were $6,343. For the same month this year they were $9,241, is generally the next month in volume of business. In 1912 the re- ceipts were $7,490 and this year they were $8,800.99, Notwithstanding the fact that thou- sands on thousands of packages of every description were delivered at the New London post office during Decem- ber, only a trifiing few missed their destination and remain in the office because they lack an address. Among these are two veast cakes, a box of pills, a toy magnet, a fine tooth comb, a penknife, a small go-cart (the latter found in the post office lobby and al- ready claimed by at least a dozen of the clerks and carriers) and a_book- let with a card attached “From Edna.” MISS GREGORY SPOKE TO EQUAL FRANCHISE LEAGUE Statewide Plan to Have Every Voter Declare Attitude on Suffrage.

Much interest is shown in the re- vival meetings this month at the First Methodist church. Prayer and testi- mony Wednesday evening were follow- ed by a brief address by Evangelist F. B. Adams of Manchester, who said in the course of his address: “I come with a message in my heart the story of my conversion. It the church of former days had been as it is today I might not have been led to Christ, for there were earnest men in those days who were interested in souls. Now there are so many dis- tractions to take one's attention that little time is given to revival work One of the greatest obstacles is that children do not show reverence in church, for they are not trained at home. If a child disobeys authorii that he can see, he will disobey God's authority that he cannot see. One of the great reasons why we do mnot re- ceive God's blessing as it came fifty years ago is that we do not make the crifices that people used to. When it was 18 degrees below zero farmers with blankets and robes used to trav- el six or eight miles. singing on the way, to help in meetings. Now with autos we are having such easy times that we want to travel to heaven on flowery beds of ease. “Woe be un- to them that are at ease in Zion.” As soon as the church of God gets into the same condition that it was fifty years ago, just so soon will it have the results seen at that time. Debt on Hall Reduced $200. There was a good attendance at the annual meeting of the Scotland Road Social club held.in the hall Wednes- day evening.
