Has Reports— Resembles Foot and Mouth- Disease. Dairy. Commissioner Jeffery O. Phelps received 'a letter Saturday morning from Ernest J. Sheagrin of Centerbrook, Middlesex ' county,. in which the writer stated he‘had a cow that' was quite sick and he wanted to be informed of the symptoms of foot and mouth disease so he might deter- mine if the animal had the disease. Commissioner Phelps at once phoned to Dr. Benjamin Pennell, a vet- erinarian in New London, directing him to go to Centerbrook and examine Mr. . Sheagrin’s' cow. From the statements which the com- missioner is receiving from all over the state he is satisfied that there is-a prevalence of mud fever among cattle. In some respects the symptoms of this disease are similar to those of the foot and mouth plague and the farmers quite frequently become alarmed and report their herds are infected with the more serious complaint. The commissioner says it is just as well they should be alarmed, as their alarm will prevent them ffom being indifferent. ~He re: s last year the spread of' the foot and mouth disease was encouraged by the inability of owners of herds to appreciate the im- portance of being prompt in taking measures to stamp it out. -~ ° The t%:l!s will be open in “all di tricts day at 6 a. m. and close at/ 2 p. m, in all except the first, where they will close at 3-p. m.

Invelved, Says Mr. Spoorier. On Friday evening in Sprague hall, Baltic,” Mr. Spooner gave a lecture on The Road to Success, dealing with the temperance question. In part he said: Success comprises ~a great -things. One man thinks he is success- ful if he.has good health, another if he Possesges . riches, -and® still- another if he has a happy home and enjoys the good things of this life with them. Does the _saloon ' point tow: this success? Does the use of liquor make one more ‘successful? The = fact. of drinking- liquor or yielding temptation to-the saloon breaks away from both safety first and efficiency: We might ask what relation has the labor ques- tion to the liquor ‘traffic. .Statistics show better.goods are made where 8o- ber men do the work. Some will say If a town goes no-license the.people in said town will' o to meighboring towns for liquor.' This is not so, as he will not take the time or spend the money on carfare to get the liquor, when he can enjoy the comforts of ‘his own home; and-has not the temptation of the saloon in his town. In one eity which went dry there was one-quarter of the arrests which they had a year ago with license, It makes a big dif- ference. Some will say_you ‘will lose money. This is not so. In"the 1910 census the Population of Sprague: was 2,551, tax 20 mills, and today still greater, debt. $91,000. This is - not anything-like good success. Note the high tax rate. Why not try saving money, or at least not "go."deeper’ into debt? Som say, what will we do with fl,u places left vacant by the salpons?

In 1848 she was married to Samuel Mosier, her third husband, and moved into a house on the road leading from the old- oil mill at the head of Niantic river to Lakes Pond, a little north of the Wil- liam Beebe farm.

About two years after her marriage to Mr. Mosier she joined the Lakes Pond Baptist church, where she is still an honored member.: She has been a faithtul Christian and loved her church and for many years she and her hus- band walked every Suhday morning to its eervices, about two miles, rain or shine, and sometimes in the evening also.

Explained at St. Patrick’s Church by Rev. Myles P. Galvin — Prayer in Honor of Mother of the Saviour. Yesterday, which was observed as the Feast of the Rosary in the Catholic church, was also the nineteenth Sun- day after Pentecost. The gospel read in the day's masses was Matt xx1l.1- 14, the parable of the wedding feast. At St. Patrick’s church, the 7.30 o'clock mass was said as usual by the Rev. J. H. Broderick, Rev. yles P. Galvin preaching on the significance of the Rosary, which is a prayer in honeor of the Mother of God. - The lives of .the Saviour and His Mother are so intertwined, the preach- er sald, that it is almost impossible to think of one without regailing -the other ~ Mary was,the companion of Jesus from Bethlehem to Calvary. The Rosary implies meditation on the mys- teries in the livés of both. It is composed of the Apostles’ Creed, which summarizes the teachings .and bellef of the Catholic church, of he beautiful prayer which Christ imself has taughe us, namely, the Our Father, and of the salu n- of the Angel Gabriel to the Blessed Vir- gin, beginning “Hall Mary, full . of grace.” To this is added the saluta- tion of Saint Elizabeth to the Virgin, and a few words added by the church, Father Galvin pointed out the spirit- ual benefits of meditating frequently and with recollection I;ron the princi- pal events in the,life Christ and of His Blessed Mother, since, with such exemplars, one can scarcely fall to de- rive inspiration. to a more worthy life in_the service of God. - Following the instruction, Father Broderick ‘and Father - Galvin Holy Communion to algut a thousand men, women and children, the commu-~ nicants including about 350 members of the Young Ladies’ soclety and the S Veapare: at 330 1n. the aharmoon: t vespers, at 3.30 in there ‘was a Rosary procession and the Benediction.qf the Blessed Sacrament.
