Donohue BY GOVERNOR Again on Compensation Commission For Five Years From Jan. 1, 1917, the Expiration of His Present Term—Has Had Nearly 1,000 Cases Since Oct. 1, 1913—But Two Appealed. DR. JAMES J. DONOHUE. Governor Holcomb on Wednesday made three nominations of members of the compensation commission, nam- ing George . Beers of Guil- ford, who is assistant professor of law at Yale university, to be compen: tion commissioner for the Third d trict, succeeding Talcott H. Russell, who resigned Tuesday. The appoint- ment is for Mr. Russell's unexpired term, running to January 1, 1919, The gcvernor has reappointed Fred M. Willlams of New Milford mpen- sation commissioner for the Fifth di trict for a term of five vears from January 1, 1916. Dr. James J. Donohue of Norwich, for the Second district, is reappointed to the same commission for a term of five years from January 1, 1917. The governor designates M Williams chairman of the board, ceeding Mr. Russell in that capacity. Dr. Donchue was given his first ap- pointment to the commission by for- mer Governor Baldwin for the three year term from Oct. 1, 1913, expiring at the end of 1916, and he was one of the original members of the commis- sion. The salary is $4,000 per year with $2,000 allowed for expehses. During his term as commissioner in this district he has had nearly 1,000 cases in which compensation claims have been adjusted and only two ap- peals have been taken from his de- cisions. In one of these Dr. Donohue’s decision as commissioner was sustal ed and decision in the other case is pending. Through the appointments an- nounced by Governor Holcomb, the board continues to be made up of dem- ocrats and republicans and the reap- pointment of Dr. Donohue, who is a democrat, indicates Governor comb's intention to be as mon-part as was Governor Baldwin. Dr. Donohue’s friends will be glad that his able administration of the of- fice in this district has been recognized by his reappointment. Professor Beers has been_eminent in the profession of the law for many years. He is a na ve wf Bridgeport, born_ October 7, 1865. He was szrad- uated from Trinity college, Hartford, in the class of 1886, with the degree of B. A. Three years later he was Eiven the degree of M. A. by his alma mater, and_in the same vear was graduated from the Yale Law school with the degree of LI, B. In 1590 he was given the master's degree in law by Yale university. He practic law in Tennessee, 1889-1832, ¢ been practicing at New Haven 1892, Mr. Beers has not limited forts to the practice of strictly to his academic w Yale law school, but he ha: gled in the politics of city government and has been a republican member of the common council in New Haven, in which body he served in 1896. also min- “QUILTING BEE” FOR XENS OF FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH Original Entertainment of Which Mrs. Avery Park Was the Author. The Xens society has resumed its regular meetings after a postponement during the special meetings recently held at the First Baptist church. Mrs. Avery Park, chairman. with her committee, Mrs. Arthur Armstrong, Mrs. John J. Parsons, Mrs. Joseph L. Oat and Mrs, Samuel Billings, have had exceptionally pleasing evenings for the Xens during the past three months. Literary and musical evenings have been much enjoyed. Creating the most real wholesome fun was the “Quilting Bee,” an orig- inal entertainment of Mrs. Park’s, and one which was repeated Wednesday evening. In the play Mrs. Park was the capital hostess receiving her guests with much dignity as they were announced in a distinctly. original ‘style by Sally Ann, the daughter. A pretty quilt was finished with neat- e and despatch. The original conversation by Mrs. Park with Miss Delia Peachblossom, who was not invited to the “Bee” con- tained many hits upon members of the society and was very laughable. The young people came as a sleighing party in the evening, announcing their coming by singing Aunt_ Dinah’s Quilting Party, and Jingle Bells. All were soon served refreshments. The guests at the “Bee,” all pret- tily gowned in old fashioned costumes ‘were: Mrs. Ruth Duzenberry, Mrs C. O. Christman; Mrs. Betty Gilliflower, Mrs. ‘'W. Smith Allen; Mrs. Cornelia Makepeace, Mrs. Will J, Koonz; Mrs. Amerilla Quickstep, Mrs, Fred Wil- son: Mrs. Susannah Snapdragon, Mrs. Samuel Billings, and Mrs, Jane Al- ways-ready, Mrs. S. Armstrong. The hostess, Mrs. Susan Highflyer, Mrs. Park: Sally Ann, the daughter, Mrs. Joseph L. Oat; Miss Delia Peachblos- som, who was not invited to the “Bee,” Mrs, John Parsons. The sleighing party guests were Mrs, Frank Waters, Mrs. Amos L. Swan, Mrs, John B. Oat, Mrs, Harry Howard, Mrs. Charles G. Cobb ang the Messrs. J. B. Oat and Harry Howard. Mrs, Park and committee have plan- ned as their next meeting’s entertain- ment, A Coming Home of the Xens, when all are anticipating a most en- joyable evening, Alfred Hough Going With Derby Firm. Alfred Hough, for years identified with the dry- goods business in Con- necticut and New York, was in Nor- wich Wednesday visiting his daughter, Miss Maria Hough Mr. Hough, who has been in Putnam for several years, is leaving Sunday for Derby, where he will be in charge of a department with the J.

A delightful tea was given by the art class Wednesday afternoon from 4 to 6 o'clock at the home of Miss Doro- thy Hall of Warren street. The tea was given in honor of Miss Rubie Fen- ton, whose engagement was recently announced to Lieut. Frank Jordon. Flowers were used extensively throughout the rooms. The color scheme of the dining room, pink and white, was prettily carried out with dainty pink shaded candelabra. Pink cupids and hearts were flying from the center to the corner of the room. Beautiful pink and white carnations comprised the handsome centerpiece. Miss Dorothy Hall was assisted in serving by Miss Eleanor Ash and Miss Virginia Hall poured. A beautiful luncheon set was presented Miss Fen- ton by Miss Barpara Latham, a gift from the art class. Bouguets of pinks were given the guests when leaving as favors of the most enjoyable after- noon. d MUSIC AT SANATORIUM. Patients Entertained by Academy Glee Club and Soloists. The Boys' Glee club of the N. F. A, under the leadership of J. C. Overbagh, visited the tuberculosis sanatorium at Thamesville on Tuesday evening and through the co-operation of Dr. Hugh B. Campbell, the superintendent, gave a musical programme for the enter- tainment of the patients. Assisting in the programme of 15 numbers were Miss Elsie D. Brand, Miss Campbell, Frank Racine and Dr. E. J. Lynch. Miss Ella Potter, Miss Lucy Gregson and Waldo S. Newbury were the ac- companists.

The indgor baseball team of the Tenth Co., Coast artillery. of New Lon- don, is coming here on Monday even- ing to play the Fifth Co. team at the armory. On the following Monday the First Co. team from New London will play the Fifth Co. here. ‘When the Fiftn Co. team met the Tenth Co. last Friday in the New Lon- don armory the Norwich boys were beaten, 30 to 10. When on their home flcors ther two team play with a differ- ent sized ball, the Norwich players using a 14 inch ball and the New Lon- don players a 17 inch ball. This gives a big advantage to the home team when the visitors are forced to play with a ball to which they are not ac- customed. _ Somerset Worked Degree.

Charles H. Ricketts pastor of the Greeneville Congregational church, spoke on ghe subject, The Stillness of Power, at the Y. M. C. A. shop talk held at the plant of the Richmond Ra- diator company at noon on Wednes- day. Rev. Mr. Ricketts said the great material forces of the universe are quiet; they do their work with neither friction nor cenfusion, The big things in nature are done without hysteria. To the eye working of such power is in to the ear inaudible. The brook is noisy because its waters are shallow; the Mississippi is silent be- cause its waters are broad and deep. The brook calls our attention to its shallowness by the noise it makes in tumbling over its rocky bed, The Mississippi, moving grandly to the gulf, hides its resistless energy in si- lence. We can hear the wind as It soughs through the pines, but who- ever heard those incalculable forces that twirl the earth around on its axis, or move the stars along in their courses. The evidence submitted by the works of man is along the same line. The compound triple expansion en- gine of 1000 horsepower works very quletly, but the portable engine in the wood lot of 50 horsepower can be heard -a mile away. The cheap auto- mobile rattles through our streets like a carnival of empty ash cans, but the powerful six-cylinder car makes little noise. The greater the construc- tive works of man the quieter the forces involved. The things which men do are noisy just in proportion as they are of lit- tle consequence. If an obscure ham- let in New England wants to vote on the license question, it has to fret and fume and stir up bad blood and bitter resentment weeks before the election only to find that the election has set- tled nothing. In Russia the mighty czar comes to the conclusion that vod- ka drinking is a great national curse, and hence, with no flourish of trum- pets, he simply says: “No more vod- ka,” and vodka drinking stops then and there. By a single stroke of the pen, or a single utterance of his voice, 168,000,000 of people are eman- cipated. This is real power. Noth- ing more far reaching in its influence has been done in this century and nothing done more quietly, The great war gives emphasis to this idea. It is not after all the din of battle, and the noise of bombs that tell. They centrel nothing, and in the main they settle nothing. It is the ul- timatum sent forth by the Russian diet throfigh its kaiser; it is the pithy orders of the grim Kitchener; it is the notes of President Wilson sent to Eng- land and Germany, short, clear, and straight to the point—it is these that make the world “sit up and take no- tice.” The masterful strokes of di- plomacy are always the silent ones. There is something in the inner ex- periences of men that corresponds to these observed facts. There are times when most of us ask ourselves this question: “Wkat do I amount to as an individual? Wher men talk like this—and we all have spells at it—they seem to for- get one important thing, viz: that this world of ours would go to wreck and ruin were it not for the quiet poency of these average men. The man of noise and bluster is not apt to be the man of power. In seasons of great danger safety is found in the calm re- serve of the common people. ~When some extraordinary demand is made on a nation’s finances—as Bismark’s upon France in the Franco-Prussian war—who pays the bills? The great army of guiet, of obscure men. When some great insult is offered to the na- tion’s honor, it is not the blustering politiclan who responds, but the quiet, unknown young men from the work- shop, the farm, the counting rooms and the college who don the uniform and willingly face what often proves the certainty of death. The greatest as- set to any corporation is the quiet man always onto his job. We need these balance wheels in politics, business and religion as truly as we do in me- chanics. Thank God for the power of these quiet, reserved men; they are the redemption of human society. MODEL OF WORKINGMEN. 8t. Joseph, Foster-father of Christ, to be Honored in Catholic Churches Friday. Tomorrow, March 19th, the Catholic churches will observe 8t. Joseph's day with speclal services. The leaf- let sent out by the Apostleship of Prayr says: Since _the fourteenth century devotion to St. Joseph has grown more and more. The last century witnessed in 1870 the establishment of a feast day to honor his patronage over'the Uni- versal church. Saint Joseph has been held before the modern world as the model of workingmen, and of all fathers of families. Devotion to him will ob- tain for us the grace to loye Jesus and Mary, to unite an interior life of piety With ‘exterior work and to dle, as he did, a holy death. Dealers in some towns of the coun- try have put the price of eggs down to 18c. This price is lower than thev reached last year. CONCERT AND BALL FOR ST. PATRICK'S DAY. 27th Annual Successfully Given by the Second Division, A. O. H. In their customary observance of St. Patrick's day, the Second division of the Ancient Order of Hibernians gave their 27th annual concert and ball Wednesday evening, having an attend- ance of between 350 and 400 at Olym- pic hall for the enjoyable event.

A. in President A programme of eleven numbers, all enthusiastically encored, was present- ed by the Cartwright brothers at the Young Men's Men’s Christian Associa- tion hall on Weédnesday night, as the second of the series of three entertain- ments being held under the auspices of the association.

MUSEUM EXTENSION WORK. New Undertaking by The Norwich Art Students’ Association. The Norwich Art Students’ assocla- tion have undertaken this winter an experiment in museum extension. Once a week members of the associa- tion or students in the Art school meet groups of children from the pub- lic schools and conduct them through the Slater museum. The talks that are given and the statues that are shown as far as possible supplement the pu- pils' previous knowledge of Greek history and geography. It is thus possible for him to see illustrated the facts which he has hitherto studied only from a text book. After exam- ining a plaster model of the Acropo- lis, or the frieze of the Parthenon. Greece and the Age of Pericles can never seem 8o far away nor no lack- ing in reality. he idea of visiting a museum in connection with school work originat- ed in Boston. The success of the movement was from the start pro- nouneed. The Boston Museum ~ of Fine Arts now employs a staff. of trained suides -or docents whose ser- vices are devoted to the children and the public schools. The Metropoli- tan Museum in New York is also ac- tively engaged in this work. In fact the plan is being tried in almost all of the museums of the country. Norwich, through Mr. Slater’s gener- osity, is peculiarly fortunate in having a museum thoroughly adapted to ed- ucational purposes. The casts which illustrate Greek and Italian sculpture were selected with the greatest care. It is possible here to study the de- velopment of sculpture in its histori- cal sequence. The taste and charm with which the collections are arrang- ed are an important feature. A Vis- itor from the Boston museum remark- ed that no one could enter the Slater museum without unconsciously gain- ing .ideas of harmony and proportion. It is impossible to say how great an inspiration the museum has been for so many years to the students in the Academy The Teachers both there and in the Art school have con- stantly used it in connection with their work. It seemed to the Art Students’ association that the younger children, some of whom may never enter the Academy, should be given the chance of wisiting the museum under syste- matic guidance. Through the cooper- oration of Mr. Graham, the superin- tendent of public schools, of Miss Henderson, the supervisor of drawing, and of Miss Marshall, the curator of the Slater museum, the visits have been made possible. As the work is this year somewhat of an experiment, the children have been selected with few exceptions from the eight grade, The interest and enthusiasm which the pupils show in coming, the appreciation they express and the reports from their teachers encourage the association to feel that this experiment in museum extension may be of some permanent value to the school children. It is expected that the dredging of the Suez Canal to a depth of 39 feet will be completed early next year. The | campus | COLCHESTER FARMERS ORGANIZE ASSOCIATION.

HELPING HANDS' SUPPER Had Many in Attendance at Spiritual Academy on Park Street.

To Have Pretty Hair If your hair is not as soft, and pret- ty, or as fresh and full as that of some friend, do as she does—give it daily attention, just the same care as you would give a plant to make it health and beautiful. Luxuriant hair—soft, fluffy, thick and lustrous—Is really a matter of care. If it is too thin stimulate the hair roots and bring out the new hairs. If it is too dry and ‘brittle, soften it up—lubricate it. If you have dandruff it's because the scalp is too dry and flakes off. Freshen up the scalp and the dandruff disap- pears. % An inexpensive tonic, called Parisian Sage, which you can get from any drug counter, or from Lee & Osgood Co., is just what you need—it softens the scalp, nourishes and invigorates the hair roots, immedlately removes all dandruff and makes the hair fluffy, lustrous and abundant. One applica- tion will stop itching head and cleanse the hair of dust and excess oil. Pa- risian Sage takes away the dryness and brittleness, makes the hair seem twice as abundant and beautifies it until it is soft and lustrous. By the use of this helpful tonic any - woman can easily make her hair beau- tiful; and pretty hair surely increases charm and beauty. W. TYLER BROWNE, M.
