MILK PRODUCERS CONFER. May Withdraw From Boston Market and Send It to Providence. Milk producers in the surrounding country who are shippers to Boston on the first northbound morning train from Danielson held a conference here Wedrgqsday relative to withdrawing their supply and sending it to Provi- dence. A desire to get better prices is the incentive for discussion of the matter. For the October to January period $1 for 20-quart jug was paid ship- pers from the Danielson station by the Boston concern that takes the milk. During January the local men receiv- ed 95 cents a jug, during February 90 cents and for March they are to re- celve 87 1-2 cents a jug. The con- tract with the Boston concern expires April 1, but up to Wednesday the producers in this section had heard nothing relative to the prices for the period between Aprll 1 and October 1. It is understood that the Provifience price is 42 1-2 cents for 10-quart jugs for the six months from April 1. This looks like a much better proposition for the local producers than the Bos- ton market is likely to offer, so a con- ference was held Wednesday to ascer- tain if the producers are willing to ar- range with the Shore Line Electric Railway company for an express car to leave Danielson mornings and take the milk up to East Killingly, from nORWICH BULLETIN, THURSDA “PUTNAM NEWS PUTNAM Adrain Breault Pleads Guilty to Man- laughter—Given 8ix Months in County Jail—Had Drank With Frank Bazillion, Then Quarreled—Struck Later Blow Which Caused Death— Southbridge Poultry Thieves Sent to Jail. Adrain Breault pleaded guilty to manslaughter before Judge Curtis in the superior court Wednesday and was sentenced to serve six months in the county jail. Breault's difficulties re- sulted from his having engaged in a fight with Frank Bazsillion, on the ev- ening of March 5, a blow to Bazil- lon's mouth felling him to the side- walk in front of the store of the store of the Church Clothing company and causing him to strike his head on the sidewalk, this contact rendering him unconscious and ultimately re- sulting in death. In reviewing the case for the court State Attorney Charles E. Searls said that it was surrounded by peculiar circumstances. Breault and Bazillion, it appears, had on the night of March 5 been attending a gathering of Ea- gles and had been engaged In deco- rating the lodge hall. From information gleaned about the affair the state attorney belleves that they had half a pint of whiskey out of which each had one drink. When opposite the Church store they en- gaged in some banter and Bazillion held up his right hand and said there was no one in Putnam who could put it down. As one witness of the affair described what went on,” they began to chew the rag” and cventually Breault declared to Bazillion that there was one thing he would say about him that was ou are a coward At that the two came to blows a punch from Breault's fist felled zillion.

Danforth of New London was then introduced and was greeted with applause. He spoke upon Relig- fon and War. I am not going to talk upon preparedness, he began, for twice lately when speaking on that subject it brought about a blizzard and we have had snow enough already! Re- ligion touches nearly everything that concerns the life of man. Civilization has had storms of war before, which- ever side wins civilization will remain There are Protestants, Catholics and Mohammedans on each side in this war. The line of cleavage is not along religious lines at all. There is a quickening of religious faith on the part of those engaged in conflict. In the trenches men come to think seri- ously on religious matters. They have not chansed their relisions but have taken hoid upon immortality, each keeping his own creed Value of Character. This war has led the world to dif- ferentialize between religion and civ- ilization. The two work together. Civ- ilization is a great producer of effi- ciency. It has stimalized invention, enlarged education, prolonged life. The product of religion is character. Char- acter and efficiency are not hostile to each other. Religion leads the man to do the right and to avoid the wrong thing. How would you get on with- out character or without efficiency? A criminal has efficiency without char- a aracter without efficiency is t man never arrives. We want character and efficiency, religion and civilization, When a Treaty Counts. The value of a treaty is in the char- acter that is behind the treaty. The expression of the treaty depends upon whether the nations behind it are keeping faith. National character is behind a $5 bill, whether the gov- ernment be democratic or republican. Take the treaty of the neutrality of Eelgium, that of the Triple Alliance, how severe the strain upon the latter! On both sides are treaties that did not fail between England, France and Russia, because the nations that made the treaties wanted to keep them. The Future Not Plain, Not even men whose study has been that of other nations and their move- ments can tell what are the resources of the nations or how long they will hold out. You might as well try to foretell the weather as trv to be a successful diplomatist. There are too many possibilities for one guess. Some say, Do vou think this is going to be the last great war? Has the loss of life in previous wars prevented this one? Humanity is like water, it comes together again and forgets. War makes immense destruction, in a very little time, a new generation does not think of the wreckage. Advance of civilization is merely an advance in efficiency. It is an impar- tial kind of efficiency, it makes a gun and a hospital each more efficient. Is there anything in religion to lead one to think that wars will be less fre- quent? In the fact that religion has greater reality in the trenches where men face life and death, in the fact that men who are supposed to think more of money than of anything eise are willing to lend their gold as never before. The realization of the Father- hood of God will not do away with all war but it is working gradually and steadily against war. The real springs of human conduct are hard to reach. 1 don't know of anything that will reach higher than the realization of the Fatherhood of God Discussion Follows. A spirited discussion followed. Peo- ple are realizing that a frivolous life is not worth while. How can we en- sure that character shall grow as rap- idly as wealth? I think the time will come when there will be some other offering than human life upon the al- tar of patriotism; were among the thoughts brought out during the so- cial hour, when light refreshments . were served.
