After the dinner whist was enjoyed, SALOONS OF WILLIMANTIC Was the Subject of Rev. W. O. Nuzum's Address Sunday Evening at the Methodist Churoh. There was a good attendance at the Methodist church Sunday evening. The tor, Rev. W. O. Nuzum, spoke on e Saloons of Willimantic. Mr, Nuzum has made a personal study of the saloons of this city, visiting them, and has seen conditions es they really are. He sald in part: Man is the only animal in the world who is real ten story fool, the only animal who willfully and constantly will go to his destruction. No other animal will do it. Yet generation after generation of men follow the sam course in the same way under the same circumstances to the same de- struction. Alexander the Great was only 32 years old when he was con- queror of the world, but he became a victim of drink and dled prematurel: Robert Burns died poor and forsakes because of drink. Byron wandered an exile all over the world because of drink. We are living in a land that is the most enlightened, the most temperate, most wonderful land, the greatest na- tion, the last 50 years living in the greatest age the world has ever known. They used to test a nation by its armies; better wring their necks than have that kind of a test. The best way to test a nation is mot by its corn or cotton. A nation's greatness is its mechanical genius. America 18 the greatest industrial nation on earth. Mechanical genius will harness nature, will raise more crops, bring more lux- uries and larger education. These are the tests of greatness. We produce more of the world's needs than any other nation. In the last 50 years two-thirds of the great discoveries have been made in the United States What's the matter with England to- day? Drunkenness. What's the mat- ter with Germany? Drunkenness. With Ruesia? Drunkenness. What's the matter with France? Wine and women, The Methodist church is the enemy of the saloon. In the state of all states that for 40 years has held fast to temperance—Kansas—every fifth man is a Methodist. Kansas has more wealth per capita, more children in the colleges, in schools, because they haven't had any booze there in 40 years. What's the matter with our city here? The greatest evil in America is the American saloon. It is the worst i ition on earth. You have not ntic an ideal looked them t a gilded saloon last onc of them places. They mirrors for some o x your hats with. The ng feature of the sa- men behind the bar. You an_Am n saloon here st of them are foreign sa- haven't ¢nough ou womer have because 10on. Out of the averaze attendance of these saloons on Saturday night be- tween 9 and 11, of about 20 men, not man’ was to be found. By their language about 60 per cent. of the men in_these saloons were foreign- ers. You dom't have in Willimantic an average. American saloon. You know why? Becauge your business men are se dirty places. The danger and viclousness of this community are in your clubs. In the fire rooms, in these so-called select places, that's where your busi- ness men and boys are getting their lquor, and not in these saloons. 1 give you warning that if I stay in this city T sha)l find every one of these places and we shall fight them earnest- ly. T dom't want to mention any of your societies, but I will mention them after 1 have made an investigation of them. ms too particular to drink in There are something like 25 saloons in this city. The proprietors are near- 1y all foreigners. Most of the bartend ers were American young men. They are men who will not drink themselves. They confess that they are in a dirty business and would to God they were wasn't a man either or_bartender who defended his_business but one. What you going to do about it? The easiest thing in the world would bo to kick those saloons out. It is the so-called upper class, social societi clubrooms, firehouses that your bo: are tempted night after night. Shame on the community that permits such a thing as that. 1 honor the brave fire laddies, men who sk their lives to save my property and yours. You have no business to ailow them to have this thing that goes to ruin their lives. That js the thing that is going to be hard to get out of this communit If we had ten men of real genuine God-like, temperance sentfment who would stand shoulder to shoulder we could drive this iniquity out and keep it out. ve these men from themselves. Save these bartenders for an honorablo business. Save the proprietors from the damnation of the American sa- 1o0m. ve these boys from the temptations of clubs. Save the com- munity and you will save the boy and the girl and save society. God grant it for His name's sake. Last of Union Services. The last of the union services was held at the Gem theatre Sunday even- ing at 7 o'clock. There was a large attendance. Rev. W. D.

Raymond Knapp of North Windham attempted to board the Boston express as it was pulling out of the local sta- tion Saturday noon and had a narrow escape from' serious injury. He was on Railroad street when the train started and ran down the street to get on. He grabbed at the railing of the platform of the rear car and was his face in the slush and ashes. He was rendered unconsclous for awhile and was taken in the railroad_stgtion and a physician sent for. By the time the doctor had arrived Knapp had Tecovered and showed no siens of in- Jury other than a lacerated face.

Mrs, H. H. Sterry of New London spent the week-end In this city. Floyd Willet and Leslie Beebe of iston avenue were in Boston Sat- urday, attending the automobile show. Rev. W. Franklin Rowley of the First Baptist church was in Meriden Satur- day attending a board meeting of the State Christian Endeavor Union. Mrs. Herman F.

Many of them are men who have served long terms in the state organization and are close to the equals of regular troops. Then there are gome Spanish war veterans in the list. These particularly would like & chance at Mexican service.. Should the company be ordered out it is not thought likely that it would be required to do more than replace regular troops ordered from their home station to the front. Purely as a spec- ulatlve proposition, it is considered here that this company, in case of a call, might be sent to some of the sound fortifications below New Lon- don, to relieve regulars. The Thir- teenth company has had its annual encampment for several years past at Fort Wright, Fisher's Island, and p: vious to that at Fort Mansfleld, Napa- tree Point, near Watch Hill. It is believed very likely that the membership of the local company would bs promptly swelled to war strength in case there is a chance for the company to go out. There are numerous brave spirits here who would like nothing better than & chance at_ active eervice, and while there has been no word said officially there may be a chance for them to g0 before lon The Main Troubl One trouble with the anti-pre paredness theory is that just when economists had finished demon- strating that war was impossible the nations went to fighting. —Kansas City Star. and sister, Mrs. Harvey Whelpley and New: Brunswicie g Joh.

S. Department of Agriculture, entitled “Habit- Forming Agents,” referring to caf- feine and other ingredients used in the manufacture of certain soft drinks, headache mixtures, etc., says: “Until recently it was claimed by some that these agents were harm- less and did not lb‘.elong to the habi forming group. ter investigations, however, clearly show that this posi- tion is unwarranted.” The average cup of coffee contains about 214 grains of caffeine. Mothers give it to their children and wives give it to their husbands—unconscious of the harm coffee does to health When the nerves cry out, or indigestion, biliousness, headache or heart flutter begin to trouble, it’s time to look to the cause. An easy, sure way out of coffee troubles is to quit the coffee, and use POSTUM —the pure cereal food-drink. There are two forms of Postum. The original Postum Cereal must be boiled; Instant Postum is quickly soluble in hot water, more convenient to prepare, and has the same rich flavour as the original Postum. Some prefer one form, some the other; both are free from the habit-forming drug, caffeine, or any other harmful substance, and the cost per cup is about the same. “There’s a Reason” for Postum
