Has Removed his Office to the W) Y¥OU WANT to put your bus- iz bet medium better than through the ad- vertising columns_of The WHY YOU SHOULD BUY A REO DURABILITY h is the same today as four years ago except for minor improvements. Thousands of the purchasers of the old cars testify that the REO inciple of using 50 per cent. oversize vital parts is correct. Durability is built into the cars at the factory and not merely the result of careful attention. - ROADABILITY Reo the Fifth will carry five grown people to New London and back without shifting gears with ease. That is Power. It has a wonder- fully smooth clutch, no jumping while getting under way. The center control single rod gear shift, original with REO, is widely copied but never equalled. The steering gear is REO design, no slack. No car in its price class rides so smoothly. ACCESSIBILITY A great advertising catch-ward a few years ago but now forgotten by most designers. REO motor, clutch, transmission and rear axle are separate units, any of which can be removed for repair or adjust- ment without disturbing the others. The unit power plants, so widely advertised, are cheaper for the factory but expensive for the user, as it usually costs about five dollars to make a five cent adjustment. REO sub frame stiffens the body and is the principal reason for low upkeep charges. VALUE FOR THE MONEY Any disinterested automobile man will tell you that REO is one of the most rugged cars ever b Few four cylinder cars can com- re with it in power, easy riding, easy and safe control and acces: lity, and none combine these features. It has an 115 inch wheel Base, roomy body, one man, one hand top clamped to windshield, whose sides extend to the frame. LIGHTING AND STARTING FEATURES Remy separate unit lighting and starting with switch to regulate charge. Parallel-series dimming headlights use but little current when dim, while the resistance type of dimmer used on other cars uses 20 much current that the makers are ashamed to supply an ammeter. FINANCIAL STANDING The Reo Motor Car Company is today the second strongest automobile concern in the world. You all know who stands first. The buyer is sure of parts and services for years to come. His REO will never be an orphan car.

Relly of New London made a most interesting address on Our Heritage. Mr. Kelly was fittingly introduced by Grand Knight J. Edward Driscoll, as a former citizen of Norwich, who has a host of friends in this City. The peaker prefaced his remarks by con- gratulating the council on the splendid rooms which they were now occupy- ing. Proceeding to his subject he referred to the mperfod in American history when the tide of emigration ald Isle to this country . He dwelt at some length on the part which the early Irish emigrants took in the great de- velopment which the country was go- ing through at that time. He referred to the prominence which 4he sons of many of those early emigrants had obtained in the departments of bus- iness and government in the various sections of this country and the deep impression which the Celtic charac- teristics had made on American insti- tutions during the past half century. At the conclusion of his remarks he was glven a most enthusiastic recep- tion by the members of the council and it was evident that it made a deep impression on his hearers, NORWICH TOWN Plans For Sheltering Arms Service— Plain Hill School to Omit Vacation.

The Admore companys woolen mill here suspended all operations for fif- teen minutes Tuesday during the bur- ial of B. D. Kaplan of New York, who was one of the founders of the coms pany. Water Short, Cattle Killed. Numerous small herds of cattle have been driven through here dur- ing the past week to slaughter, be- cause- of the shortage of water on many farms, These dry, windy March days have tended to lower the water supply and several instances cisterns have been consumed. Mr. and Mrs, J. Henry Frink were t guests of relatives on Sterling . W. Clapp of Willimantic was a recent visitor here. Testing Herds. The members of the State Dairy as- sociation have been testing cow herds in_this vicinity this week.

Tracy. Andrew Warner of Scott Hill was a recent visitor here. Israel Brown of Danielson spent a few hours here with relatives this week. Fireworks for Guatemala. The people of Guatemala are exceed- ingly fond of celebrating all sorts of occasions, and the many flestas, Church and State, afford ample op- portunity to gratify this desire. Birth- days, wedding anniversaries, christen- ings and other occasions are also cel- ebrated. Fireworks are used in the majority of such celebrations, but as vet the fireworks market has not been developed to any extent, writes Gar- rard Harris, special United States Government agent at Guatemala City, Japan and Chna have shipped most of the goods used, which consist mainly of crackers and aerial bombs, _with some skyrockets and small squibs, A few are manufactured in the country, but they are not of good quality and are crude. It is believed that if some attention is devoted to the market with novel- ties for special occasions—set pieces of not too costly a character and day- light fireworks—there will be a sale for them, but it should be borne in mind that the Gautemalans waut some noise for their money, and are particuarly partial to the aerial bombs. If some- thing in this line can be devised which Wiil not only go with a bang but look pretty as well, there is little doubt INFLAMED ECZENA ON BABY'S HEAD Face and Hands. Grew Worse Rap- idly.

The two-shot bombs are the most used at present. In Guatemala City there are no regulations about the use of fireworks, and if anyone desires to express himself in aerial bombs and firecrackers he is welcome to do so, and nobody complains to the police. Coal Mine “Movies” to be Shown. Moving pictures of all phases of an- thacite mining from blowing down coal at the face of the chamber to the load- ed railroaq cars going to market will soon be circulated by the United States Bureau of Mines with the co- operation of the big coal companies. The films are to be shown at the vari- ous mining institutes throughout the region and to be offered for exhibtion to the public schools. The member- ship of the institutes aggregate about seven thousand and the general pub- lic will also be invited to these even- ing exhibitions. The pictures will be shown in the schools in the afternoons. This is the first opportunity for tne children and the general public to see exactly what the industry in the midst of which they live is like. The siight expense of exhibiting the fllms wiil be borne by the institutes and the school boards. Flour Market In Durban, Natal. Since the first_of December, ays Consul William W. Masterson, Dur- ban, Natal, there has been a gradual shinkage of the supply of flour in the Durban district. The importation of flour from Australia ceased, but the public was given to understand that shipments from Canada would propor- tionately increase, these two coun- tries being the principal sources of pply. The non-arrival of a cargo of Canadian flour, which was to have been shipped about Dec. 20, caused a rise in price. It would seem, with the Australian supply entirely cut off and the Canad- ian of an uncertain quantity, that there might be an opening in this dis- trict for the sale of American flour, ard a list of the principal dealers of flour in this district is accordingly transmitted.
