Broad, Laurel CHILD REMOVED FROM UNDESIRABLE SURROUNDINGS Four-Year-Old from New London Family Sent to County Home. Alice Powers, he four-year-old child of William A. and Etta Powers, was on Wednesday committed from New London to the New lLondon County home in this city as a neglect- ed and dependent child. A petition for her committment brought the testi- mony of Richard W. Mansfield, ward Lynde and the matron- of the Day Nursery, who testified to the conditions of the Powers family and declared that Mrs. Powers was not a. proper person to have control of the child. Mr. Mansfield_and Edward Lynde told that Mrs. Powers had been ab- sent from her family two or three weeks and that she told them that she had been in Providence with one Arnold and another man for whom she cared ‘more than she cared for her husband. The woman, they declared, used vile and obscene language in the hearing of her child. They also said the home of the Powers family was not tidy and that conditions were not such as they should be. Mr. Powers is a painter and gisplay- ed affection for the child. He did not want the child sent to the county home and the little one was heart- broken when she realized that it was proposed to send her awa: Alice was taken to the home by Robert Chappell in an auto. 3 Powers had nothing to say when she was given the opportunity in court. It is probable that she will have to change her methods in life else she will have to answer in court proceed- ings. CHRISTMAS SALE BY METHODIST LADIES’ AID With Supper Where 200 Patrons Were Served.

In his talk at the shop meeting at the Richmond Radiator company's plant on Wednesday at noon spoke on the topic, Cultivate . a Habit -of Straightness. Vocal selections were rendered by Mrs. Loutse O. Potter, who was accompanied by Miss Letitia Kramer. Rev. Mr. Ricketts referred to the recent address which President Hadley gave at Slater Hall as the greatest speech Norwich has had in this generation. With great clearness Dr. Hadley set forth the benefits a young man de- rives from military training, said Rev. Mr. Ricketts, not only as a bod- ily help but along mental and moral lies as well. One of his expressions keeps ringing in my ears, “It makes a young fellow straight,” and hence my topic. I began to picture in my mind the typical young man as I had seen him both in the militia and the army: what 1 saw was the correct bodily carriage. There is something about a soldier that makes one look at him He stands straight and he straight, his step is quick. firm, steady, manly. His whole attitude is strength plus beauty. When we see a man, particularly a young man, shamble gaited, weak kneed, hollow chested, we at once put hi mdown as a physical defective and moral degenerate. We want boys and men straight in all the functions of life. As the early years of a boy's life are spent mostly in school, there is a loud call to culti- vate the habit of straightness during this period. The boyss ought to be straight with their teachers, with their studies, with their companions, with the opposite sex, and unless they are they canont be straight with them- selves. The normal boy hates to_see a “vellow streak” in another boy. Un- lenss straight habits are _cultivated during these years they probably nev- er will be. Amusement is a legitimate part of iife and hence we need bo who will play the game straight a great football game once 20,000 men and women leaped to their feet as one person, groaning. hissing, velling and shaking their fists in angry protest.! What for? They had seen a notori- ously dirty tackle. Deep in our sport- ing consciences there js an_insistent desire that the game shall be played straight. These word vour work should_be apply to you ife in the work s traight. Be str: the other fellow who m: quick, so skillful, Give the company a square deal and believe that the company wants to give you the same. Cut out the sa- loon any everything else that tend to introduce crookedness into vour lives thereby lessening your capacity as workmen. Act atraight, think straight, be straight. Rev. Mr. Ricketts closed by making a broad application of his theme. We want business men so straight that their spoken word will be equivalent to their written promise: men in poli- tics so straight that political life shall be lifted out of the slough o fde-| spond; men in the family so straight in domestic relations as to diminish the alarming frequency of divorce. The speaker claimed that this doctrine of straightness was his interpretation of the great roadw: that leads to the grand terminal called heaven. and ps ght with not be so strong as vou.
