The borough plunged in darkness during the storm of Sunday night, on account of trouble with the lighting syetem, proved to everyone that the lights are worth all they cost from year to year. _ Another Try for Diverce Mrs. Natalie May Stone of East Killingiy is to renew her efforts for & divorce. The case was heard at Putnam last Friday, but temporarily dismissed. The discovery of cases of foot and mouth disease among herds of battle in the Hartford district hes stirred farmers hereabouts consiGerably, but no cases have been heard of in this part of the state, War Makes Skunk Pelts Cheaper ‘Wildee Lavalle of South street has ebout 200 skunks on his farm this year, penned in a side-hill area that is to their liking. On account of the war in Eurcpe, the pelts are bringing only about one-third of last years prices, Mr. Lavalle says. Canadian Relative at the Front Many Canadians in the villages of Killingly have relatives in the Do- minion contingent sent abroad to fight for England’s cause a few weeks ago, and the report that regiments of this unit of the British forces have suf- ferel heavy casualties in the fighting in_Flanders is disturbing here. Members of the town school com- mittee from Danielson were at Wil- lamsville Monday afternoon for the inspection of the new school building end in the evening for the exercises held at the village church to mark the opening of the school BROWN STUDENTS Entertained at the Mason Homestead for the Week-End A score of Brown university stu- @lents were week-end guests at the Mason homestead in East Killingly. They were. given a hunting trip through Connecticut and Rhode Is- land border territory, getting 13 rab- bits and two fat coons, the latter late Saturday night. East Killingly's res- ervoir section resounded with Brown cheers and songs when the announce- ment of the outcome of the Harvard- Brown foothall game was received by telephone. COL. GASTON’S IDEA Hae Long Urged Acquirement of South American Trade Colonel William A. Gaston of Bos- ton, whose ancestral home is at South Killingly, was one of the first, years ago, to forward the idea of securing the trade of South American coun- tries, a proposition that is at this time recefving the most careful attention. It was years ago, too, that he felt tonvinced that much of this country's fallure to secure the trade of South America was due to thet fact that we id not understand the: laws, the nguages, the credit systems and the methods of those countries as well as German and English competitors. Giv- ing practical attention to means of pvercoming these handicaps, Colonel Caston has for years borne the e: pense of sending each year two boya from Boston High school to South Am- trica to study trade problems there tor the benefit of their own country These boys are always the brightest in the class and win the honor they receive in competition with their fei- fow students. This movement, having n it such great possibilities for good, has since been copied in a number of American clties, ENGLAND CHEERFUL Facing Winter in a Friendly Country With Good Hope—Letter Tells of Improving Conditions. Agent Robert W. Boys of the mill st Willlamsville has received another Interesting letter from a personal trlend at Gorton, England. The let- tor deals principally with the effects »t war upon Engiand is is very inten- :fin:. Bome excerpts ars as fol- WR: “The incidents which have happ td on the sea where our brave fel- ows have gone down have in no way ufected the general spirit, except to make us more bitter and keen for revenge on an.enemy who resorts to Iastardly and cowardly tactics.

They are working day and night on ships, guns and submarines.” After discussing the long-drawn-out battle of the Alsne, the letter goes on: "%Ve are not short of men, as some of those who were in the earlier fighting have been allowed home for rest. Evidently our generals have got the measure of them (Germans) and have strong reinforcements for a final German dash, if it is attempted. Evi- Aently Kitchner thinks there is no immediate hurry and is reservigz his forces. My impression is they do not want to drive the Germans over the frontier just yet. Our army is in a zood position with a fine railway system at its back and every facllity for transport and communication. If the weather beccmes severe it is much better to have winter quarters in a friendly country that in the enemy’s country; further, it seems to be good policy to keep the Geérmans attack- ing. ““I'rade is improving, money is again free and plentiful, and considering our vast amount of shipping, we have lost only a very small fraetion.” The writer tells «f traveling, early this month, to London with Premier Asquith and sets down in his letter that the great English statesman looked extremenly well and appeared quite free from care aud worry. The letter sets forth that England is counting strongly on American sym- pathy. RAIN WELCOMED _But Much More is Hoped for Before Freezing Time There were many expressions of thanksgiving in Danielson Monday for the rain of the preceding nigh and of the day. The shortage of wa- ter had become such an aggravated matter as to be the direct cause of considerable monetary losses and of great inconvenience. Employes in manufacturing plants have felt the results of the dropping of the level of the rivers in short hours and reduc- ed pay. As one swallow does not make a summer, neither does one rain storm completely relieve the situation that has been so long compilained of, but it helps. Much more rain is needed ané unless it comes before freezing ‘weather sets in, many, especlally farm- ers, will be facing a condition that gives them good cause for worry.

Members of St Mary’s parish are delighted with the beautiful new pews that have been placed in the church, another of the improvements brought about during the pastgrate of Rev. Charles F. Bedard. A large delegation from Pomfret school expects to _be at New Haven Saturday for the Yale-Harvard game. Pomfret schial sends many graduates to_these nivermties, Representatives-elect Mayor Archi- bald Macdonald and Joseph Plessis seem certain of fine committee ap- pointments during the coming session, as they were members of the house in 1913, and have the experience that entitles them to consideration in thel giving out of places, It was stated here Monday after- noon, by a man in close touch with farming interests, that it is his opinion that there are no cases of féot and mouth disease among the herds in this section of the state. City Court Cases. Four cases were disposed of In the city court Monday morning, two of the prisoners being sent to ail to serve sentences of 30 dars each, one being sentenced for intoxication, the other for vagrancy.

Wiley— Divided Into Three Classes ‘Washington, Nov. 16.—Dr. Harvey W. Wiley has prepared a list of se- lectedd foods for European war suf- ferers as a suggestion to Americans who wish to contribute supplies to the relief cause. The list is suggested as the most effective for shipping and distribution purposes. It Is divided into three classes, one for infants and young children; one for convalescents and another for well adults A package for infants and young children should include 30 pounds of evaporated, Unsweetened milk; about two pounds of milk sugar; five pounds and two ounces of salt. This will sustain from 200 to 250 infants or voung children for one day. For packages for convalescents, the following is recommended: Fifteen pounds of evaporated milk; 15 pounds Frank A Paris of Fall River was| majted milk; one-pound can of olive a visitor with friends in Putnam Mon- | o1 ootronseed ofl; two pounds of can- i ned chicken; five pounds of brown & rive; seven pounds of whole wheat or Germans Not Stopping Beigian Sup-| whife fiovr; three pounds of sugar: plies two pol\md; of :e-. u‘;d ;‘lx ounlcu ';s! hingt Jov. 2y salt.
