Murphy—Postal Receipts Show Increase—Equal Ad- vance in Money Order and Postal Savings Departments. POSTMASTER JOHN P. MURPHY On Wednesday, Postmaster John P. Murphy, who was inducted into office March 15, 1915, completed the first vear of his admipistration in the local postoffice. The vear has been very 1o-easful for Postmaster Murphy. As it has been tha most prosperous in .anals of the Norwich postoffice. Altaough the business boom has not vet developed in this city, the postal | savings departments. This NORWICH BULLETIN, THURSDAY, MARCH 16, 191t receipts of the year show a decided increase and there has been an equal savings in the money order and postal increase has been remarkable because of the European war which has done away with most of the foreign money order business and has caused a failing off in the amount of postage collected on foreign mail. Additional Clerks and Carriers. Additional clerks and carriers have been appointed to insure the prompt handling and delivery of mail during the rush seasons. Two sub stations were restablished at the Falls and Bean Hill for the convenience of the residents of these neighborhoods. Changes have been made in several of the rural routes with the result that many of the patrons receive their mail much earlier in the day than former- 1y. The postoffice and treasury depart- ments have granted all of Postmas- ter Murphy’s requisitions for the im- provement of the postal service and the government property. About $8,000 has been expended for much needed repairs on the postoffice and Postmas- ter Murphy is recommending other the employees. As soon as he took charge of affairs, the new postmaster made it cléar that the interior sur- rounding it must be kept in good con- dition and he has continued to give the matter personal supervision. Postmaster Murphy and all the em- ployees seem to be a very happy fam- ily and most desirous of serving the public in a satisfactory manner. —_———— A NEW VERSION OF THE BEATITUDES.

Dealers Met in Conference at the Wauregan House Wednesday Ev- ening. for they The local automobile show has ex- cited the interest of dealers through- out the eastern part of the state and several met at the Wauregan house on Wednesday evening as the guests of F. L. Caulkins of Middletown at an in- formal banquet. Among the varlous matters discuss- ed was the problem of shipment of cars from the factory. It is now al- most impossible for cars to come by freight and those wishing their cars early must have them shipped by ex- press which means a large additional expense. In thé spring, however, un- less the embargo is lifted cars may be shipped by boat to Buffalo and then driven overland to their destinations. After the banquet the company went to the Aetna aleys where the retailers bowled the wholesalers. The guests of Mr. Caulkins were W. E. Carney and Frederick Martin of the Noyes Bulck Co., of Boston, L. H. Maples, Peter Clccarello, Roland Jordan, John Leonard and Arthur Small, all of ‘Willimantic and M. A. Frank.

LIQUOR DEALERS ARE FACING PENALTIES. Special Officers Are Rounding Up Of. fenders in This State. Dealers in spiritous and intoxi- cating beverages will do well to watch their step with reference to the eva- slon of the emergency tax on wines, according to the statement of an of- ficlal of the United States internal revenue department Wednesday. Spe- clal Investigators from the treasury department are making a tour of the state for the purpose of rounding up violators of the law and the penalty ranges from a fine of $100 to two years' imprisonment in a federal pen- itentlary. The emergency tax specifies that a two cemt stamp should be placed on each quart of still wine In stock, six cents on each quart of cordial, or cocktail and 20 cents on each simflar quantfty of champagne, imported or domestic. The statistics of the rev- enue department furnished approx- h’nate‘lg the quantity of wines likely to be so0ld in the country during the year just lapsed and when it became ap- parent by the =sale of stamps that there was a reduction of something ke 50 per cent. from the estimate, it gave the department reason to and consider.

MARY'S CHURCH Norwich Town Rector Spoke on Prayer Before Good Gized Congregation. A fair sized congregation was pres- ent at the Lenten services In St Mary's church on Wednesday evening at 7.30 o'clock. Rev. J. H. Fitzmau- rice led in the recitation of the holy rosary and litany of the Blessed Vir- gin Mary and also officiated at bene- diction of the most blessed sacrament. The weekly Lenten sermon was de- livered by Rev. Charles W. Brennan, rector of ihe Sacred Heart church at Norwich Town, who took for his theme, Prayer, and went on to say that St. Paul urges us to pray for one an- other while St. Augustin defines it as the uplifting of our hearts and mind to God and from this definition we can pray without work. The woman who was {ll and who had spent money with doctors with no relief in sight had a desire for prayer, for she said if I but touch the hem of His garments I shall be cured and He neld her up as an example to the unbelieving people by inquiring, who has touched Me? Yes, prayer i the uplifting of our hearts and mind to God; but some will say they are too tired to pray, by leaving their prayers until the last minute and then retire without saying any prayers at all. Are your sorrows and tribulations too deep for words, then uplift your minds and hearts to God? It may be done various ways. Adore God as the Creator and fix your mind on God alone. The first form of prayer is the pray- er of adoration—prayer of heaven. The touching passage at Christmas tnme pictures the shepherds keeping watch over their flocks by night knew when the angels came that heaven was opened at the birth of the Saviour. All the angels of God adored Him in_manifestation of the sh herds. This is the highest form of prayer. Next comes the prayer of thank glving—for friends, reiatives, country and church. One thing of the worl hateful to God and man is the un- grateful person. Too often have our petitions been answered, we go our own An illustration of this is the curing of the ten rosy and_but one returned to thanks. So often have we been ed ourselves, if we but examine conscience find ourselves ungrat The more a man has less depend- ence upon God it becomes a grave danger to his soul for the rich man feels he don't want to know God and this accounts for the passage in Scrip- ture which says he will find it diff men from lep- zive cult thing to reach heaven. It is very hard thing to realize that some peo- ple have not prayed for 40 years and set it is true. Bismark., the great ruler, admitted that he h not ed at all in his youth for he =: mizhty God knew what he wsnt but in his old age he realized wi grave mistake he had made. V ever we recelve from God we s be thankful for the same as we be to a friend In life. The next form of praver is that of petition.

BLISS HAS NEARLY FORTY APFLICATIONS If Formed, Local Resarve May Have Use of U. S. Destroyer. Lieutenant C. Bliss, who is try- ing to orzanize a local division of the Naval Rescrve, repor: t he has al- ready received between 30 and 40 ap- plications for membership. These i clude men who are engaged in various lines of business but the applicants are mostly m ists and engineers. As soon as Lieutenant Bliss receives applications enough to warrant the inauguration of the naval reserve he will call a meeting to foaulate plans and apply to the war department. In order to obtain a destroyer for training purposes it is necessary to have between 50 and §5 applicants. This number is necessary to man destroyer. The city of Philadelphia is trying to organize a reserve with 100 members, but have not yet filed an application with the war department and Lieu- tenant Bliss has hopes of organizing and filing an application before the Philadelpnia organizers do. The state naval reserve comes un- der the jurisdiction of the adjutant general and National Reserve orders, etc_come direct from the navy de- partment. Lieut. Bliss has already written to the navy department for Individual application blanks which he hopes to receive in a short while and on receipt he will forward them to any one de- sirous of applying for membership. Lieut. Bliss is being assisted in the formation of the Reserve by O. B. Dorsey, an_electrical engineer empio ed at the Hopkins & Allen Arms com- pany’s plant and a3 graduate of the University of Illinois. So far the prospects are bright and the organizers are of the opinion that this city can ably support a reserve. Gameo wardens in all parts of the state continue to report the discovery | of lame deer, wounded deer, deer limping and starving on three legs, shot undoubtedly by good, law-abiding folks, upon their own land, and with a shotgun, in accordance with the pro- visions of the 1915 law. HOW TO GET RID OF CHRONIC DANDRUEF The only sure way to get perman- ently rid of dandruff is to remove the conditions that cause it and then keep the hair and scalp in a clean, healthy, vigorous state so dandruff will never return. This beats shampoos, which merely remove the dandruff for a few days at most. Lee & Osgood are now strongly recommending Parisian Sage, a harmless, inexpensive and quick act- ing preparation, that is guaranteed to act directly on the cause of dandruff and entirely remove it or the pur- chase price will be cheerfully refunded. Here is a test no one should fail to try. Get from your druggist a pack- age of Parisian Sage. Rub a little of it into the scalp with the finger tips and see for yourself how the dandruff disappears, the hair stops falling out and ail ftching immediately ceases. Nothing hurts the hair more than dan- aruff, so why not begin using Parisian Sage today and.be:forever rid-of it? No Matter where you bhuy your monu- {ment, you MAY obtain good work.
