A—New Department to Be Worked Out This Season. \ At the Y. M. C A. 2 meeling of the physical department commitice was held Tuesday evening 2nd the session was given over to a discussion of the details of the gymnasium work during the coming winter months. Indications are for a steady growth in the activi- ties ‘of this always popular department 2nd for unusual progress in certain othe- lines of association work. One new field, for example, is to be devel- oped this year, according to present plans, for which the outlook is hope- ful. ‘This is the institution of Bible classes, which m=tter the officials have been discuseing and for which an out- line of a programme is being worked ) In the way of educational work, plans are likewise under consideration, Arrangements are expected to be made for a class of young men in stenograd phy and typewriting and if a sufficient. number are interested enough in any other practical courses to warrant hav- ing it, instruction mikht be provided.

D, WEBSTER, Treasurer Phone 280-3 Willimantie The child | NEABLY 5,000 AT WOODSTGCK FAIR Splendid Weather Favors Agricultural Society Tuesday—- Cattle, Horses and Farm Products Best in Their Class— Varied Displays in Exhibit Hall. (Special to The Bulletin.) Woodstock, Sept. 15, —Woodstock fair, a fine old-fashioned agricultural exhibition, coutinues to grow. Tues- day, the first big day of this year's #how demonstrated that bevond a doubt. The fair Is bigger and more popular than ever. In practically every department the exhibits are more numerous than ever before, in all of more than a half century of the society’s_history, In some departments the entries are double what they were 2 year a2go. Nearly 5,000 in Attendance. There were close to 5000 people on the fair grounds Tuesday. About every town in Eastern Connecticut was represented as were many of _the Massachusetts border towns. The au- tomobile, rejuvenator of country fairs, figured largely in attracting an attend- ance from over such a widespread territory. Tt was estimated that 80 per cent. of all who came to the grounds arrived in machines, scores of which were engaged in lucrative livery ser- vice. At every available place within the ground and particularly within the track, scores and scores of machines were parked. The horse, a feature of the fair exhibits in various classes and in providing entertainment on the track and in the show program of the afternoon, did mot fizure much in the transportation- of the happy crowds that thronged the grounds. Know Good Horses, Hundreds of those who applauded the best cfforts of the horses entered in the races of the day were owners of 200d horsefiesh not many years back. but when they rode to and from the fair Tuesday it was in high-powered motor cars—types that can show real speed. George Wilkes may have been a mighty good “hoss” in his day, but he has given place to the Sizzling Six in this day of getting to fairs in real comfort. Gambling Taboe, The falr is a real agricultural and cattle show mot a summer place mid- way though there are many harmless “akirs on the grounds. The other kind the grafting gamblers are not toler- ~ted. This was quickly demonstrated ‘Tuesday by fair officials to a conces- ion holder. who over-stepped the “otmds anA lmits set by the associa- tion. He was ejected. ‘frican dod-ers: for‘une ¢ llers ‘omen wrestlers. dincine pirls: a-a tious other entortpiners opered op- unities for the crowd to amuse trelf and get rid of some of its small Fe_but the displays i th- exhi- n builéing in ‘he poultry sheds “ree barns and cat'le sheds seemed ~ hold a greater attraction for the ~owd. The display of cattle is es- cially 7cod this year a~d the long nes of sheds were fillad with fine necimens of the various breeds popu- “ur in these parts. The poultry show vas up to the usual high standard and many fanciers spent a zood part of their day.at the erounds inspecting the ~ens of prize winners. Fine Percherons Admired. Horses shown in the same section of she grounds also came in for much at- “ention. This was particularly true in the section whrre Stanton D. Wicks of “omfret Doane farm, is showing thor- -ughbred Percherons a kind of horse ‘hat he is deeply interested in. With Tnddee, & prize mare, he exhibits Ovid, 2 handsome stud colt that will be five months old on Friday of this week. The Mason farm of Webster also ‘hows some fine heavy horses and here is a display by the Connecticut Horse Breeders' assoclation. Exhibition Hall. Most of the exhibitors in the exhi- bition building excepting those who have enteries for prizes are Putnam firms. Chandler and Morse, in charge for Joseph Plessls show Sterling ~inges. Herald heaters and oil stoves. Near them is a heater and stove dis- play by Bullard and Clark. B. D. Bus- bee and Milot and Willlams are other Putnam concerns that are exhibiting at the fair.

Adelard Morin 1s 'n charge, with Miss Mazie Rider as assistant. J. F.

Quiet Woodstock takes kindly to the cnliveirg melodies of the Maxixe music and some of the other dances that ~arry ons's mind adrifting to scenes and nlaces far removed from the pestoral quist and selaieress of Woodstock—where. hrwevar, they krow a grod thing at once when they hear or see it. Krug got his bustness dome just in tine to get out and catch the man, who i@ not respond at all well to sross examination. In the afternoon the selectmen heard the details of the matter as far as they were able and after an examination by Dr. . B. Wil- cox, who adjudged the man insane, 4hey are takinz steps to have him properly cared for. A father who at- tempted to secure possession of a runaway 6on was acjudzed within his rights and found not guilty of a charge of assault. At the Loomer. At the Loomer opera house interesi- ed houses have been witnsssing the mysical comedy Miss Broadway, with 2 lot of vaudeville features as other at- tractions. A particularly clever juggler was one of the headliners. Entered Rhode Island. Normal. Rev. and Mrs. W. O. Nusum and Mise Ruth Nuzum and Mr. and Mrs. C. T.. Clinton were automobile visitors this weck in Providence, where Miss Nuzum entered the Rhode Island State Normal school. Married at Pawtucket. \ AJexandre Menditto and Miss Mabel Rice of South Windham were married ot Pawtucket. R. L, on Sept. 7. it was learned Tuesday, ~when bride and groom left together for Pawtucker, where he secured & position during his honeymoon. Filling Place on Schoo! Board. Robert H. Fenton has been chosen by the republican town committee to fiil the vacancy in the list of nominees for the school board caused by the withdrawal of Walter R. King, who, being In the postal service, cannot serve in an elective office. Local Laconics. George E. Hodge of Norwich was a visitor in Willimentic Tuesday. Miss Emily Wilcox of the Scotland road, graduated in June from the nor- mal training school has begun tcach- ing this weck In Mystic. Mr, end Mrs. E. W. McGuire and Dr. and Mzz. F. E.

Many women visitors fairly went into rap- tures over isome of the beautiful things shown in the cases Tuesday.' Thosc who have enteries in this department are representativve of all of the towns In this section of the country. Experiment Station’s Exhibit. - A special feature at the fair this year is the exhibit by the Connecticut station. It occupies one side of the large room under the grand stand that is also partly, as in other years, given over to the lunch service, which is under the direction of A. W. Barber of Putnam. The state exhibit is ar- ranged with great neatness .and at- tention to detail. Cace after case con- tainingsp eciments of foods for ani- mals, samples of grain, .inse s that are either beneficial or destructive to crops, biue prints of value and instruce tive to agriculturalists. There is a showing of a collection of eggs. One case, in its upper sections, contains samples of what might be consid red a poor ration for a cow and. opposite, what is a good.fation. The result in tailk produced is shown underneath, 7 quarts under the pogr ration Aection, 14 quarts under, the/good ration sec- tion. Cases of grainh are also shown. The whole exhibit aitracted a great amount of attention and probably save many farmers some valuable nints and things to think about. The exhibit represents a secientific ar- rangement for getting superior re. sults. Suffragettes’ Tent. Spreading the gospel of equal fran- hise righis for women amon- the rwusands at the falr wis a delega~ tion of workers from the Equal Fran- chise leagues in Putnam, Danielson, ‘oodstock and Hampton. The suf- agettes have a tent erected not far from the entrance to the grourds as headquarters and during Tuesday af- terroon held a district meeting there, brief addresses by prominent Xers in the cause from towns men- tio ed. Much literature was put out u:ing the day and many opportunities proved to supply. inquiring minds ih | formation & out the propasan- da that women of the country have een so earnestly forwarding for more han a year past. Premium Awards Tuesday, Throughout Tuesday the machliery ¢ the fair worked with fine effective- ness. The master hand of Secretary L. H. Healey was everywhere in evi- lénce in the manner and smoothness with which all of the details of the rrangements were carried out, his ong experience proving the big asset it Iways has been in the past in man- gement of the fair.

THE AMERICAN TOBACCO COMPAE' the various tests the ere put to and t0 see the races, the summary of which is_given below. By 2 o'clock the grandstand was packed to capaeity, even the steps being crowded, and still more people came to find com- fortable places to watch the races and the vaudeville, which was very good, the trained horses being especially in- teresting. Fair officia’s talked Tues- day of havine the grandstand enlarsed before the time for next year's fair. Another proposition is to enlarge the exhibition building and to provide ad- ditlonal parking space for automobiles. The fair has practically outgrown many of its present accemmodations. Tuesday was a moneymaker for the fair association, the weather. on which 8o much of the success of the exhibi- tion depends, being almost ideal, the complaint of & few being that it was too hot. The crowd may not be re- corded as the largest ever on the grounds, but came pear to the high Tecords of days gone b Good Rac There was some good sport on the track in the afternoon in the running off of the two races carded for the day—the 2.35 and '3 minute classes. The results were as follows: Three Minute Class, Silver Queen, T. F. Ryan, Put- Paisey G., Clif. Green, Thomp- son . e General B, A. H. Mathewson, Plainfiel . ae Provider, Miss Hazel port, Pomfret e Time: 243, 2.45, 2421 2.35 Chss. In the first heat of this race on the esecond lap Mildew fell headlong while making the turnbelow the grandstand, turning what looked like a complete somersault.

Pickpockets at Work, While some of the exhibltors were demonstrating cream separators at the fair Tuesday, light fingered gentry were clrculating through the crowd showing how their coin separator sworked, this being the old game of vocket picking. John Keegan, a res- ident of Thompson was one of those who reported at the secrei office that he had been_ “touched” for $20. Other losses were heard of, but names were not forthcomips. Crewd on Grandstand. There was plenty of opportunity for the crooks to work, for the crowd was densely packed at points and not giv- ing but very little attention to safe- guarding its wealth. This was par. ticularly true about the track and grandstand, where many hundreds gathered during the late hours of the forencon and during the afternoon to watch the working oxen and steers in J. Carl Witter of Danielson was the starter, and the judges were W. . Gardner of Salemville, R. T. Chardes Oox, North Woodstock, Dr. Baldwin of Putnam, P. B. Foster, New Haven.
