In connection with the circular mat- ter herewith, from the office of the third assistant postmaster general at Washington, D. C., a report from the bank at the main post office in this city bearing on the system will prove interesting reading as the office has made great strides in buflding up the system, reporting an Incredse of eighty-five (85) new accounts opened for the present year, which puts it in high standing with any other city in the New England states in propar- tion to its population. The book ree- ords show the following amounts of money handled from the opening of the system, Sept. 28, 1911, to May 14, 1915, inclusive: Postal Savings Account. Postal savings certificates issued --$ 67,994.00 Drafts on er withdrawals ' 12,760.00 Deposits from masters . 13,020.21 Bonde purch: other depositors 5 300.00 Postal savings stamps sold 22.10 -~ Postal savings certificates 6 POIA ceioiiiciitonsiinin, 89,691.00 Bank deposits made to credit Of trustees ....cccceeceos 53,837.14 Drafts of other postmasters CHBNOA s s e e 2 e T er 4,272.62 Interest paid on deposits drawn out .o 275.68 Postal savings cards re- deemed 19.00 Transfer draffs from Wash- fiigton, Dy C: vsvessens 3,516.14 Total $195,707.89 Number of new accounts opened since Jan. 1, 1915 . 8 Number of depositors to date . Amount of money on hand to the credit of depositors ..$77,289.76 At the present time circular matter bearing on the merits of the system in the following languages is on file at The Postal Savings window and may De had for the asking: English, Ger- man, Swedish, Italian, Polish, Dan- ish-Norwegian,. French, Greek = and Hungarian (Magyar). Once a depos- itor has opened an account he or she can do their banking by mail and withdrawals may be made in the same manner, less the money-order fee for same. Many depositors of the work- ing class find it convenient to do their banking on Saturday afternoons, the bank receiving deposits up to 6 o'clock. The rate of interest is two per cent. and when a depositor has reached the sum of $500 the same may be convert- ed into a government bond, paying two and one-half per cent. and the depos- itor may #tart to bank again another $500. Bonds are issued twice a vear, viz.: July 1st and Jan. 1st, notice for which must be given a month in ad- vance. Any further information may be had by applying at the window. Open Account by Mail. The foliowing announcement of an extension of the postal savings sys- tem js announced by the department at_Washington: Every person in the United States ten years old or over may open an account in a postal savings bank after July 1st, according to an instructive leaflet on the postal savings system just issued by Postmaster General Burleson. This important extension of the service will be made possible by permitting persons Hving in commun ties so sparsely settled as not to jus- tify the designation of their local post offices as regular postal savings banks to open accounts by mail. Governor Dockery, third assistant postmaster general, who has direct su- pervision of postal savings, was so impressed by appeals from all. over the country to open postal savings ac- counts by mail that he took up the task some weeks ago of working out a feasible and safe method for meeting a demand well illustrated in a letter from a Saline County Missourtan, who - resides many miles from a postal sav- ings bank, “Having a_ few hundred dollars saved from fifty years of hard and assiduous labor and skimping econ- omy on the part of my wife and my- self, we conciuded to deposit it in the Postal Savings Bank of . We wrote to the posmaster at that place and received reply to the effect that none but patrons of that office could deposit in that office, Which is vety disappointing news to us. Our little farm is not large enough to support us and land js so high that it is im- possible for us to buy more with what little we have saved and we are so old that we can’t labor much now and we would be so glad to lay by at least enough to put us away in decency.” Under the plan adopted by the post- master general for opening accounts by mail an intending depositor, re- siding where there is no regularly de ignated postal savings bank, will ap= ply to his local postmaster, who will cee that necessary identification data as prepared and forwarded to a nearr by post office authorized to accept de= posits. The intending depositor will then be given permission to forward his first and subsequent deposits by mopey order or registered mail direct to the postmaster at the banking point for which receipts or certificates will be issued. He may withdraw all or any part of his postal savings by mail and on demand together with any in- terest that may be due him. The new leaflet points out that any person ten vears old or over may open an account in his or her own name; that an account may be opened by a married woman free from any control or interference by her husband; that post office officials .are forbidden to disclose to any person, except the de- positor, the amount of any deposits; that withdrawals may be made with- out previous notice; and that the gov- ernment guarantees to repay all de- posits on demand with accrued inter- est, The leaflet will soon be printed in 23 foreign languages for distribution through local post offices. The for- elgn-born citizen has taken very kind- 1y to postal savings, and litérature in his own language will be of great as- sistance to him. In a recent article, Postmaster General Burleson com- mented on the foreign-born depositor as_follows: “Upwards of 500,000 depositors now have accounts in the Postal Savings system and they represent every na- tionality on the earth. They also rep- resent almost ever known occupation —professional men, theatrical people, mechanics, laborers, fishermen, pack peddlers, etc. But the majority are wage-earners, and of this class the foreign-born largely predominate. A census of depositors taken by the post office department shows that approx- imately 40 per cent ($200,000) of the depositors are foreign-born _citizens and they own more than 50 per cent. og the deposits—splendid evidence of the confidence of our mewly acquired citizens in ahe ability and good faith of their adopted country to fulfill its obligations. ““There is another reason which led immigrants, unfamiliar with our lan- guage and business methods, to turn to the government to safeguard their humble savings and that reason is the disastrous experiences many of them have had by the failure of bogus ‘private banks' officered by swindlers of their own tongue who have preyed mercilessly upon their loneliness and credullty.” Postal savings receipts have broken all records the past year. During the eight months prior to Auril st there was a net gain in deposits of $19.000,- 000, as against a gain of $8,000,000 for the same months the year before. Thousands of new accounts have been opened and the millions made up largely of hidden savings have Jeen turned back into the channels of trade just at a time when there was press- ing demand for every dollar. $13,429 FOR FOOD SHIP FROM CONNECTICPT. So Far Contributed Towards the Re- lief of the Starving Belgnans. All parts of the state are contribut- ing towards the “Connecticut Food Ship for Belgium” Thus far 113 gifts and pledges have been received, aggregating $13,420, and representing 28 different localities. The amounts range all the way from Bridgeport’s tital of $1 up to New Haven's $3,- 995, representing the subscriptions of 23 individuals. Second stands Hartford with 26 subscriptions aggregating $2,- 891, while South Manchester is third with 11 amounting to $1,385. Most of these contributions have come in response to letters sent out on behalf of the Connecticut commit- tee by former Governor Simeon K. Baldwin, its president, making a spec- ial appeal for large subscriptions classified into _several conditions groups. Out of the 100 conditional subscriptions of $100 each, which were asked for, 49 have been received, while there are now 11 members of the con- ditional group which calls for 80 gifts of $500 each. The total amount still to be reaised is approximately 370 000, It is planned soon to make a gen- eral appeal in all towns of the state through the newspapers and local committecs, In the meantime, gifts large and small will be welcomed by the state committes and may be sent to Charles C.

Report That Picturesque Spot Off No- ank May Be Leased. = The Isle of Quirk, situated to the north of Mystic Island and within quick access from Noank village which gained prominence through be- ing the subject of Arthur Henry's book. “The Isle Cabin,” may become inhabited again according to rumors current. It is reported that during the past week out of town people have inspected the place with a view to leasing it. The island is owned by Charles Henry Osgood of Norwich who owns Mystic Island, but since Mr. Henry's departure from there several years ago, it has not been inhabited except for an occasional picnic party. The island was leased by Mr. Hen- ry several years ago. He built a cot- tage there, occupying it during the summer months. Upon his removal to the Pacific coast the house gradual- ly degenerated until tumbled down two years ago. While in the course of construction, house was depicted in Mr. Henry's book as wers also Noank and some of its inhabitants. The island is a group of rocks, cov- ered with a small amount of soil, but several have been anxicus to lease it and erect a summer bungalow. It commands a broad view of Fish- er's Island sound and the ocean. MUSICALE GIVEN. Programme Was Wall Rendered at Mt. Calvary Baptist Grurch, Before 8 good sized audience at Mt.

SHORT CALENDAR MATTERS IN SUPERIOR COURT Allowed to Allen-Beeman Truste: Sell Accounts. At the short calendar session of the supperior court here on Friday with Judge Gardiner Green presiding, E. A. Prentice, trustee for the Allen- Beeman, was given permission to sell 30 shares of the stock of the Norwich Improvement company for $5 and also to sell 12 bills due for goods from merchants on_Long Island and Fish- ers Island. They footed up $347.67 and he was allowed to sell them for $20. Action on a petition to sell per- sonal property was postponed . Pleadings in two weeks or default was ordered in Joseph Mack vs James O'Neill. In the matter of James F, Fenton and others vs Fenton MBuilding com- pany, the court was asked to pass an order for the compensation to Re- ceiver Morgan. Attorney James pre- sented the motion and Judge Green di- rected an allowance of $250 on account David J. Hunt of New London was given a license to act as polit from date in any of the waters of this state. He is 50 years oldand represents that he has been master of coastwies vessels for 25 years and is familiar with all waters of this state. TUpon_the application of the T. A. Scott_Co. to fix rates on_pilotage to and from all points on the Thames river in New London county, the fol- lowing rates were fixed: beginning at $2 per foot for 12 feet draught water, an increase up to and_including 20 feet where the rate is $4 per foot. From 20 to 30 feet the 34 rate per foot draught of water holds. Each vessel shall pay the same rate per foot of draught outward as she did inward. Arguments were made to have a temporary injunction dissolved in the case of the Coast and Lakes Contract- ing Co. vs Deputy Sheriff M. J. Martin and others. ~The arguments were made by Attorney McGuire and Hol- landersky. Judge Green took the papers. At one time the Breakwater com- pany owned and operated @ big quar- ry on the Thames river above the navy yard. One if its employes who got hurt obtained judgment for $700. In the meantime the company had been placed in bankruptcy and taken over by the Coast and Lake con- tracting company. Property was at- tached in the hands of the new com- pany to secure the old judgment of $700 and the question now is was the property legally attached. The machinery levied upon consists of a compressed air machine and 10 hoist- ing_engines Sheriff Tubbs told how_the attach- ment was made. Sheriff M. J. Martin of New London was also a witness as was Willlam 1. Allyn of Ledyard, who claims the sum of $1,200 is due in taxes to Ledyard in which the plant is located. James L. Crider, the president of the new company was an interesting witness and gave details to the bus- iness of the new organization. FIRST GENERAL SECRETARY. Rev. C. K. Flanders Was Sp Y. M. C. A.

Spring Medicine Hood’s Sarsaparilla, the Great Blood Purifier, is the Best. Spring sickness comes in some de- gree to every man, woman and child in_our climate. It is that run-down condition of impoverished. devitalized blood. It is marked by loss of appetite and that tired feeling, and .in many cases by some form of eruption. The best way to treat spring sick- ness is to take Hood's Sarsaparilla. This old reliable family medicine purifies, enriches and revitalizes the blood. ‘It is an all-the-year-round alterative and tonic, and is abso- lutely the best Spring medicine. Get your blood in good condition at once—now. Delay may be dan- gerous. Ask your druggist for Hood's Sarsaparilla, and insist on having it, for nothing else can take its place. W. TYLER BROWNE, M.
