Haskell Writes In Ger- manistic Society Quarterly Maga- zine, The current number of the Ger- manistic Society Quarterly Magazine, published in America and edited . by distinguished German professors of the leading American and German uni- versities, has an able and lengthy arti- cle in German by Mrs. Henry S. Has- kell (nee Juliana C. Shields) formerly of Norwich, The essay of Mrs. Haskell relates to Gerhart Hauptmann of Berlin, now recognized as Germany’s greatest liv- ing author. Gerhart Hauptmann at- tained in literature two years ago the Nobel Prize and he has the distinc- tion of being the only German au- thor holding an honorary degree from Oxford university. Mrs. Haskell's article is in an appreciative strain of Hauptmann and deals in a novel way With gathered facts, similarities and traditions attaching to the recent fa- mous German drama produced by Hauptmann known as “Gabriel Schil- ling's Flight.” That drama Mrs. Haskell seeks to show 1s based in part at least on experiences and features in the life of Stauffern-Bern the bril- liant Swiss artist. who, after a phe- nominal career as a portrait painter and_porsrait etcher, died at Florence by his own hand at the early age of 33 years. An ardent passion for cu- rious and baffling love affairs with one Lydia Esches of Zurich appears to. have been the cause of the gifted art- ist's untimely death. The publisher article of Mrs. Haslell has an especial interest for German literary reople in whose -language it is written. SUMMER SCHEDULE OF NATIONAL GUARD Will Run from June 1st to the End of July. In ten days the Connecticut Na- tional guard will begin its series of summer camps and at intervals during the next two months the several branches of the service will go to rious points to receive instruction in noeuvres and combat exercises, un- the first week in August. The prin- cipal feature of the summer will be the six weeks' school of musketry at East Haven in place of the camp at Niantic for enlisted men. The war depart- ment officials and those of the Con- necticut National guard were in ac- cord in the view that the-men of the organized militia were in need of thor- oughgoing instruction in the use and |} care of the modern army rifle, such in- | I struction as was not available during the winter drill season, and such as they would not be likely to obtain at a camp where much of the time was spent in menoeuvres, drill and other features, to the comparative neglect of the use of the rifie and frequent target practice. The Connecticut or- ganizations will follow this schedule: The Summer’s Programme. June 1-15, camp of instruction for|; field artillery officers at Tobyhanna, Pa. June 7-11, school for Infantry officers at East Haven. June 10-19, expedition of the coast artillery reserves, to take part in_the joint coast defense exercises at Fort H. G. Wright.

L. M. Oint- ment in the hopes of bei"}f{ i‘urEdd of a distressing skin trouble which had an- noyed me for a long time. I may say that I had used several skin remedies and had been treated by specialists of skin diseases who finally advised me that there was little chance of being cured. It was really astonishing to me o see how quickly your E. 1. M. Ointment started to heal the affected parts and best of all in a few weeks’ time I found my skin nice and clear and in a healthy condition. I would advise anyone who is suffering from a skin disease to give your splendid remedy a trial. (Signed) ALBERT DION, March 19th, 1915, 4o L M Ointment is for sale in il rug stores.
