NORWICH BULLETIN, TUESDAY, MARCH 23, 1915 Henry Allen & Son FURNISHING UNDERTAKERS 88 Main St. Lady Aesistant when requested TWO-IN-ON WAISTS, Among Dame Fashion’s Novelties For Spring — The Tommy Atkins Suit Smart and New—Handsome Hats Displayed. As Baster nears, the designers are showing even more beautiful hats than were displayed during the early opening days. An elegant model seen yesterday was a sand Tippérary, faced on top with rose corded silk. The effective trim- ming was of gardenias and fruits, with a butterfly bow of rose ribbon. A transparent hat of French crepe in flesh pink had a charming inlaid wreath of flowers, black velvet ribbon bows and streamers, Exceedingly handsome was a sail- or in French knot braid of Belgian blue, with effective magpie facing. Cherries dotted the band about thep crown and for finish there was a bril- liant green feather, with choux and streamers. A transparent hat in two shades of blue maline and black, had an inlaid wreath of forget-menots and prim- roses. Its band and streamers were novel, being in wood fibre in the blue tint. Tete re negre remains in favor. A shepherdess shape in this tint of brown was of Georgette crepe. It had a rich garland of wild flowers on the centre of the crown. To some women, the acme of ele- gance at any season of the year is a handsome black hat. One such seen yesterday was of Milan, and was edged with black grosgrain ribbon. Two emart black quills were poised directly on the crown. Another beautiful black model was a hemp sailor, having white hemp facing. At the back there was a bow of the white satin ribbon which en- circled the crown. A fancy feather ornament was at the front. Waists, Suits, Dresses. Among fashion's most practical and most sensible, as well as most beau- tiful offerings this season are the waists which are really two-in-one. That is, they come with rolling col- lar, which when desired can be but- toned up to the throat. Crepe de chine, embroidered Jap silk and pon- gees are the favorite materials. All sleeves are long. Many buttons are used in trimming, as well as embroid- ery, braid, inserts and herstitching. Prettier and more becoming dresses have never been provided than at this season. One of fern green crepe de chine is shirred at the waist, has trimming of self material, loops and buttons and a fanoy rolling collar in white. Poplia is strong this spring. A pop- lin dress in putty tint has a flare skirt, waist is bolero effect, trimmed with arabesques in putty braid and gold knots, the collar having the same ornamentation. In suits, a trim and natty design is the Tommy Atkins developed homespun. The belted jacket, on Norfolk lines, has four patch pockets. The collar is of pear green silk and the tailored skirt has a graceful flare. But a description of these pretty things is not enough! Look them over and select for East- er wearing while a choice may be made in comfort! Of this you are certain, if only you Improve the tips given today by The Bulletin’s advertisers.

When the bowels are clogged with an accumula- tion of refuse from the stomach the child natyrally becomes cross and fretful from the discomfort, and is often punished for tem- per when medical attention is really what is needed. The next time your child is cross and unhappy, without ap- parent reason, try giving it a mild laxative. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is a mild, pleas- ant tasting combination of sim- ple laxative herbs with pepsin, and is especially recommended for children because of its free- dom from all opiate or narcotic drugs and its gentle action.

AT DAVIS THEATRE. Vaudeville and Photoplays. Three vaudeville acts that kept good sized houses thoroughly pleased were shown at the Davis theatre on Monday Wwith music, comedy and mystery min- gled. The music was by Frank Gar- field in his comedy selections which ‘were given in pleasing voice. The com- edy was by Pete Curley & Co. in their funny sketch called The Lady, the Liar and the Lion, which is full of laughs from one end to the other. The mys- tery was Lora, the girl in the parrot, who did some wonderful work in read- ing cards placed in a box which is held by her partner. In the motlon pictures the big at- traction was Charles Richman in the five-part reel The Man from Home, while the Mutual War Weekly and a Kv‘estone comedy fillled out the good John C. Averill Elected to Succeed the Late General Edward ‘Harland—Unanimous Choice of Directors—Fourth President of Bank Since its Institution in 1858. A meeting of the directors of the Chelsea Savings bank held on Monday morningsat the banking house for the purpose of cnoosing & president to succeed the late General Edward Har- 1and unanimously elected Vice Presi- dent John C. Averill to that position. Mr. Averill was elected one of the in- corporators of the bank in September, 1887, a director in 1888, and vice presi- dent in 1907. In his election as presi- dent he becomes the fourth to hold that position since the institution of the bank in 1838 The vacancy in the board of vice presidents was filled by the unanimous election of Winslow T. Willlams at the same meeting, maiing the vice presidents now Henry H. Gallup. Crarles E. Chandler and Winslow Williams. Mr. Willlams was_elected an incorporator of the bank in Septem- ber, 1892, and a director in 1898. The directors of the bank are Henry G. Peck, Willis Austin, Charles B. Chap- man, Oliver L. Johnson, Archibald Mitchell, Grosvenor Ely, Frederick T. Sayles, James C. Macpherson. At the present time Mr. Averill is clerk of the court of common pleas, but he will resign this position and give his entire time to the interests of the bank, his resignation from the covrt duties becoming effective at such time as will best accommodate -the business of the court, which it is un- derstood will not be until about the middle of, Apry, at least. During his long term of service as clerk he has shown his particular fit- ness for the dutles involved and it will be with regret thai the judge of the ‘bar Sept. court of common pleas will dispense with his services. His successor will be appointed by the judge. As a man of sound and conservative business judgment and pronounced executive ability he is well qualified for the office to which he has been elected and he was generally congratulated by his friends on Monday after the announce- ment of his choice by the directors had been made known. After graduating in the class of 1873 at Cornell university, Mr. Averill came to Norwich in 1874 from Danbury and read law in the office of the late Jere- miah Halsey. He was admitted to the 28, 1876, and practiced law until he was appointed to succeed the late Webster Park as clerk of the su- preme and superior_ courts for New London county on_July 2, 1881. He was assoclated in tRe same office with Mr. Halsey. He hcld these clerkships unti] 1807, when he declined reappoint- ment. He was appointed cleck of the court of common pleas in 1886 and of the criminal court of common pleas in 1839. Mr. Averill is a corporator and trus- tee of the Norwich Free Academy, trustee and treasurer of the Otis libra- Ty, corporator and trustee of the Eliza Huntington Memoria! home, life trustee of the Buckingham Memorial, director of the Aspinook company, director of the Thames National bank, vice presi- dent and treasurer of the New London Northern railroad, is a 53d degree Ma- son, a director of the Masonic Temple corporation, treasurer of four of the Masonic bodies and secretary of the fifth. REPORTS RECEIVED AND ELEVEN DIRECTORS REELECTED At Fourth Annual Meeting of Nor- wich Improvement Corporation. The annual reports were received and the eleven directors re-elected at the fourth annual meeting of the stock- holders of the Norwich .ndustrial Im- provement corporation held at 4 o'clock on Monday afternoon at the Thames National bank. There were 886 shares of stock represented at the meeting. President James L. Case presided. Annual reports were made by Secretary Martin E. Jensen and Treasurer Gilbert L. Hewitt. The directors re-elected were the following: Allyn L. Brown, James L Case, J. J. Desmond, Gilbert L. Hewitt, Will- iam F. Hill, Shepard B. Palmer, J. B. Shannon, Leonard O. Smith Martin E. Jensen, Walter W. Lang, William B. Young. They will elect officers at a meeting to be held probably within a week. Tha report of President James L. Case covered the operations of the year angd was as follows: It is a pleasure for me at this time to call the attention of the stockhold- ers to the annual report of the treas- urer for the year just closing and es- pecially to the fact that all bills against the corporation have been paid in full and a balance of $633.19 is in the treas- This result has been made possible largely by the special sale of lots which took place in September and October of 1914 under the direction of James R. McClelland of New Haven, Conn., as auctioneer, at which time 36 lots were sold, most of them being upon the inetallment plan. Net payments to the amount of $1,259.48 have been received by the treasurer, as shown by his re- port. Of 36 lots sold, 6 have come back to the company because of the failure of the purchasers to comply with the terms of the contracts under which the lots were sold. A new street known as Hillside avenue has been laid out, and tins corperation now has staked out or said tract 33 lots which can be sold. I believe that an effort should be made to dispose of these remaining Iots during the coming spring. In addition to this tract of land, there is a large acreage which has been undeveloped lying almost directly south of the American Thermos Bottle company tract and which is available for a factory site. I trust that the stockholders will bear this in mind and, should occasion offer, I hope that they will bring this property to the attentioh of prospective purchasers. The treasurer’s report further shows that there is also due from unpaid subscriptions the sum of $1,910. A con- siderable rortion of this, however, is HORLICK'S The Original MALTED MILK Unless you “HORLIOK", you may “?.y anlntlnrt{ GAGER Funeral Director and Embalmer Prompt service day or night Tel. 6422, Lady Assistant o e absolutely worthless, but a special ef- fort should be made during the com- ing year to close out this entire ac- count. This amount represents the contributions of 10 subscribers. The report fro M. E. Jensen as au- ditor of this corporation shows that the American Thermos Bottle company has aid to March 20, 1915, the sum of 234,388.44 for wages and payrolls and $50,707.74 for advertising, and both of these amounts have been credited on account of agreement existing between tho Thermos company aend this cor- Poration. The only financial obligation that this corporation has to meet during the ensuing year, so far as I can see, is a sum sufficient to pay the taxes on the land at Thermos park and I be- lieve that a special effort should be made to dispose uf the land as rapidly as possible and thereéby transfer our assets into cash. AT THE AUDITORIUM Lew Orth Musical Company. The Auditorium was packed to the doors Monday night when Lew Orth presented his musical comedy com- pany in “The Tourist and the Bandit,” a well arranged light comic opera in two beautiful scenes. The cast in- cluded several capable performers principal among whom were Miss Lil- lian, Lew Orth and Prof. J. J. Coffey and his dancing partner, who brought down the house with their excellent interpretation of the maxixe. The cos- tumes, song numbers and in fact the ‘whole atmosphere of their little com- edetta were above the average. It was announced from the stage that a tango contest will be held on Thursday night and a five dollar prize is to be awarded the best couple, the audience to be the judge. Mr. Orth further stated that if some gentle- men wanted to compete and was un- able to secure a partner, he would be only too glad to have him dance with one of the young ladies of the com- pany. ith the company are two excellent young lady tangoists and a rehearsal may be arranged for at any time by applying at the box office. Test Alarm from New Fire Box. Fire Chief Howard L. Stanton has hag erected a new fire alarm box, No. 47, at the corner of Laurel Hill avenue and Sunnyside avenue, and a test alarm will be rung in this (Tuesday) noon. — Among the members of Groton grange who attended the combined meeting of Pomona granges at Willi- mantic Saturday were Mr. and Mrs. L H. Crouch, Mrs, E. W. Crouch, Miss May Crouch, Miss York, Cyrus Avery, Miss Lucy Pa.lmel', Mrs. Maynard and Mrs, Barbour, FINISH ROAD CONTRACTS DURING THE SUMER. Highway Commissioner Intends Push the Work Along. to Highway Commissioner Bennett will have all ccntracts for road con- struction in the state finished dur- ing the coming summer. This will not include the repair work. It is his aim to have his work so ad- vanced that he will be able to devote his time in the fall to the preparation of plans for work to be begun in the spring of 1916. He sees a pecuniary advantage to the state in awarding the contracts in the winter when out- door work is suspended. At that sea- son he can secure contracts at figures from 10 to 15 per cent. less than in the spring. He does not expect to be able to comstruct as many miles of improved highways this year as last, when he had to complete a great deal of work pertaining to unfinished contracts. For nearly two vears the high- department has been unusually and the activity of the com- missioner in the general oversight of the work will be appreciated when the fact is stated that he has driven his automobile more than ,000 miles. He will eomplete this year the work on the trunk line from Portchester, N. Y, to the Rhode Island state line at Westerly. This road will traverse the state along the shore and will be more than 100 miles in length. It will be the most important work of the vear. Contracts now running in this end of the state are the following: R. G. Miller Co., Bolton-Coventry, $22,500; New Milford, $8,000, $19,163, $8,421.82. A. Vito Cons.

Tired, overworked Kkidneys allow poisonous uric acid to remain in the Dlood instead of expeliing it from the system. That is the cause of chronic rheumatism. The disease gets into some joint or group of muscles and settles there, and only strenuous treatment will dislodge it. Rheuma softens the uric acid crys- tals lodged in the joints and musclas, causing the terrible pains, and passes them out of the system through the kidneys and boweis. All the blood in the body passes through the kidneys once every thres minutes. Unless it is pure the organs become diseased. Rheuma purifies the blood and the neys, then regain their natural activity. Lee & Osgood and all druggists sell Rheuma, at a price so inexpensive that it is folly to be without it. afternoon in a basketball game with a picked team in Parish hall, score 15 to 7.
