The Buckley case wa$ then taken up and in this it was necessary to have Deputy Sheriff Draper summon in three talesmen not taxpayers in Nerwich. He secured Erastus A, Button of Preston, Frank W, Brew- ster and Frank H. Lester of this city. As taxpayera. of Norwich could not serve as jurors in the case, the chal- lenges used up all the panel The following jury was chosen the trile : Frank H. Palmer, George A.

Gallup for CONTRACT FOR ROADS AT WOMEN'S COLLEGE Work Soon to Begin—Start College Buildings by First of June. The contract for the comstruction of macadam roads on the grounds of Connecticut College for ‘Women has been, awraded to Arrigoni Bros., of ‘Wateérford. There were ten bidders for the road construction contract, seven of whom were from New Lon- don.. The job 1s an extensive one, and involves. the expenditure of sev- eral thousand.dollars. The ‘college architects have not en- tirely completed the plans for the first five builldings to be -erected, but.will do so in a few days. Delay has been caused by the question that arose as to the advisability of a separate pow- er. heating and lighting station on the college grounds. It was at first the intention to heat each building separately, but recently it has been oposed to establish a single build- ing which will be the source of light, heat and power, thereby reducing the possibility of fire to a minimum. President Sykes is understood to be heartily in fayor of the latter plan. Fire is a bete noir of college dormi- tories and the chances of it will be eliminated to the utmost degree in Connecticut college. Cooking on chaf- ine dishes will not be permitted in the rooms and students desiring to give spreads will be required to prepare the dishes in a room on the ground floor especially designed for this purpose. The contract for the construction of the first five buildings will be given out about June 1, it is stated, and work thereon will begin immediately thereafter. The college will open its doors for the reception of students in September, 1915. In a few weeks the college site will be the scene of build- ing activity which is likely to con- tinue for several years. With the commencement of actual work, it is believed that donations for other buildings will come in from various sections of the state and beyond.

The invitation of the First Congre- gational church in Norwich to the con- ference asking that the-1915 meéting be held here was presented and ac- ceptéd. One of the principal addresses of the conference was by Rev. Dr. Howe of Park Congregational church, who spoke upon the theme of The Sacredness and Dignity of the Christian Church. His opening words concerned the diffeernt attitude of the people of a community toward the church. He noted five forces that lend dignity and sacredness to the church. First, the appeal which it makes to reason, forcing the mind to the highest level of thought: secondly, that Christ lives again in the church. That when one is dealing with the church one is touching Christ through men; thirdly, pecause of the work of the church In saving’ men. In_this respect Mr. Howe said that wherever an evil appeared there followed the church with drawn sword. 'The fourth appeal for the dignity and sacredness of the church was its destiny. In the last instance he said that the church is the .one, mighty force in _history which has prevailed, because Christ ¥s in #t. That if human malignity cogld have crushed it Christianity would not have lasted 19 centuries.

Of all the days set apart in recent years for special observance that of Mother's day is the most beautifully tender.: all earthly names that of *“mother” shares with “wife” in being the most sacred that a man can utter, and to how many did last Sunday bring the tears of recollection and the pang of memory at the thought that, never again in this mortal state, shall we see her fact or hear her voice!
