Louis Zechiel of Wiilimantic and Wo- man With Him Hurt, Louis Zechiel of Willimantic, who runs the Thread City garage there, and a young woman with him whosa name was withheld, were badly hurt Monday night in an automobile acci- dent at Occuym about 10.30 o'clock, when the Ford machine driven by Mr. Zechiel hit a pile of stones at the corner where the trolley cars stop and caromed off from the stones so that it switched around, somersaulted, and landed in between a tree and a house, tearing up a small tree by the roots on the way. Another machine, Conn. 6098, with a man and a young woman in it, with which it was said Zechiel was ap- parently racing, was ahead of Zechiel at the time and it is believed ZeclNel was trying to pass the other car when the aczident happened. Zechiel was pined under the ma- chine and was unconscious when tak- en out, but come to before Dr, George Thompson, who was summoned from Taftville, arrived. The man's face was badly cut, but he declined medi- cal attention. The young woman lost three upper teeth, had a cut in her lip that had to be sewed up, and had one foot in- jured. They were taken into the home of Fred Ratty where the doctor saw them . 2 The machine drivenby Zechiel was wrecked. It had the number 935 L, which is that of the Thread City ga- rage. One of the young-women said they came from Boston and the other said New York, but it is believed that they were both from Willimantic and that they were trying to hide their identi- ty in the apparent joy-ride. The ¢wo injured people were taken in a Norwich Jitney towards Willi- mantic and expected to meet a car that had’been sent for.to take them TAKES OLD C. B. ROGERS SHOP Hopkins and Allen Co. 4.cases Another Manufacturing Plant —Four Story Building Will Give Them About 30,000 More Square Feet of Floor July ist With Option for Space—Taking Possession on Five Years. Negotiations which have been con- ducted for about a month by Edgar H. Allen, representing the American Wood Working Machine Co., with the cooperation of N, Tarrant and Co., real estate agents, were concluded on Mon- day by which the Hopkins & Allen company leases the old C. B. Rogers shop, so-called, on Thames street. The building will be used by the Hopkins & Allen Co, for the extension of their business, made necessary through the big war orders for rifles for the British government. The company takes possession on the first of July and has an option for five years, but the lease does not in- clude the siding from the Central Ver- mont road which is at the southerly end of the buildings. The siding is on leased land and it is understood that no satisfactory arrangements could be reached by which the siding could be secured. The Rogers shop was last occupied by the Richmond Radiator company as their storehouse, but they gave it up this spring, when the company estab- lished a_central storehouse at New- ark, N. J. This new building secured by the Hopkins & Allen company will give them about 80,000 square feet of floor space. It has three stories above the basement, which is on the level of the Central Vermont car tracks. ‘With the Rogers shop, the Hopkins & Allen company now has three build- ings In the city where its business on the war contract will be carried on, as the Gordon building on Chest- nut street has been leased also, The bulk of the machinery for the new . buildings is expected to arrive during August, but a staff of draughts- men are now at. work in the Spring- field, Mass., offices of the company, on the plans for the tools to be used.

With a welcoming address by His Honor, Mayor Timothy C. Murphy, the big carnival being held all this week at the Battlegrounds, under the aus- pices_of Norwich, Conn. lodge, No. 950, Loyal Order of Moose was for- mally opéned on Monday evening and to all present indications its success will top the expectations of Dictator J. A. George, Secretary Frank B. Haz- ard and their corps of assistants. After weeks of preparation the com- mittee in charge of the affair com- pleted the final arrangements in time to take places in the street parade that preceded the formal opening at the carnival grounds. The parade lined up in front of the Moose home on Lau- rel Hill avenue at 7.30 o'clock and, headed by the Krauss military band marched over Laurel Hill bridge into Shetucket street, through Water street to Main street and Washington square where they countermarched through Main street, Franklin square, East Main street and on to the carnival grounds, where they disbanded. Oc- cupying a prominent place at the head of the line were His Honor, Mayor Murphy, City Cleri Arthur G. Crowell, and Dictator Joseph A, George, seated in the Maxwell touring car that is to given away at the close of the car- nival. The car was driven by H. F. McCurdy of New London, and was gaily decorated. Just ahead of the Maxwell was George H. Westerman, general manager of the carnival com- pany, who was seated in the car own- ed and driven by L. M, Crandall. In line were about 350 Moose, and nearly a hundred visiting brother: Opening Ceremonies. Upon arrival at the carnival grounds the Moose formed two lines, through which the mayor's car was driven and as he passed the Moose bared their and greeted him with three rousing cheers. Mr. Westerman took and and in introducing the or, spoke as follow: izens of the City of Norwich: It is with great pleasure that I most cordially welcome you here this eve- ning to the opening of the carnival of the Loyal Order of Moose of your city. I have the pleasure of having been instructed by Mr. J. A. George, dicta- tor of the Loval Order of Moose, to introduce to vou this evening a gentle- man whom you all know, to formally open this carnival, 2 man who is held in the highest esteem by his fellowmen, a gentleman who has done more both directly and indirectly for the city of Norwich than any previous mayor, and that gentleman is the Honorable Tim- othy C. Murphy, mayor of Norwich. In his characteristic manner the mayor started the ball rolling with the following brief address: Ladies and Gentiemen: It is a great pleasure for me tonight to open up this Moose carnival. In opening up this carnival it is one of the great many good things that this organiza- tion, whose business is to promote purity, aid and progress, has done for the city of Norwich. I would say to the Krause shows, I wish them a hear- ty welcome to our city, and I hope their stay here will be a big success, also to the Moose carnival. At the conclusion of the mayor's welcome there was a general _stir among_the larze crowd in the direc- tion of the various show tents, the merry-go-round, ferris wheel and mo- tordrome and the carnival was run- ning in full force. On the Midway. The thriller of the midway is the motordrome, where daredevil riders speed around the sides of the huge bowl in a reckless manner seldom sur- passed by any of their kind ever seen in this city Another of the feature attractions is billed Ish Ka Bibble, and true to reputation is a sure cure for the blues. The monstrous ferris wheel w on the turn alk evening and so was the merry-go-round. The human art gal- lery was another attraction that came in for a good deal of attraction. Here were seen the fat lady, weighing near- Iy 700 nds, the midget, who i equipped with a duplicate set of mus- nd joints, the Egyptian fortune the young spike breaker, who twists and breaks spikes with nds and teeth in the most amaz- and the tattoed wonder. who has a variety of pictures on his bod till another of the freak at- tra is the trio, father and two children, who exhibit chicken hands and claw feet. Oberita drew special attention. This a beautiful art production and is directed by C. E. Roussey. A mysterious trip full of apprehensions was that to Tipperary, while the ani- mal circus attracted many people. The trained animals are among the best seen in Norwich for some time. Another tent was devoted to the wrestling show by Sam Anderson. This athlete is willing to pay anyone $1 if they are able to withstand him for five minutes. Youngest High Diver, As 10.30 approached there was a scramble to get near the h dive ladder, one of the free attractions. Billy Klien, who claims to be the youngest high diver in the world, made the 96 foot drop into a tank 8x12x4, to the admiration of the big crowd that assembled. He repeats his dive twice daily, at 4.30 in the afternoon and 10.30 in the evening. Always Something Doing, There was something doing from the opening to the closing of the car- nival and there were no waits to lessen the ecnthusiasm. The shows, stands and other attractions are arranged on both sides of the midway and the elec- tric illumination is beautiful, especially from Preston bridge and the Greene- ville de of the river. All in all, the carnival company is among the clean- est that ever visited Norwich. ‘Wednesday will be County Home and Rock Nook Home day, for_ the chil- dren of the homes are to be invited by the officials of the company to visit the carnival free of charge in the aft- ernoon, and Thursday afternoon will be school children's day for the car- nival will be open then to the chil- The Way They Weave the Yarn To Have Pretty Hair If your hair is not as soft, and pretty, or as fresh and full as that of some friend, do as she does—give it daily attention, just the same care you would give a plant to make it grow healthy and beautiful. Lux- uriant 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 hair. 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. ¥reshen up the scalp and all dandruff disappears. An inexpensive tonic, called Paris- ian Sage, which you can get from Lee & Osgood, or any drug counter, is just what you need—it softens the” scalp, nourishes and invigorates the hair roots, immediately removes all dandruff and makes the hair fluffy, lustrous and ebundant. One application will stop itching head and cleanse the hair of dust and excess oll. Parisian Sage takes away the dryness and brittleness, makes the hair seem twice as abundant and beautifies it until it is soft and lus- trous.
