It is under the management of “The Association of Three Pond Camp for Boy Scouts,” which is com- posed of men interested in the welfare of scouting in all its branches, and Who have as their object to provide a camp for Boy Scouts which while furnishing all the benefits of phystcal recreation out of doors and the various Boy Scout activities, lay_especial em- phasis upon obedience, deference, or- der and discipline as the fundamental gharacteristics of the Scout oath and aw. The officers of the ass President, Arthur A. Carey; vice-presi- dent, Charles C. Jackson: secretary- treasurer, George A. Mansfleld; camp commissioner, Hugo B. Seikel, Parents, scoutmasters or scout troops wishing to meet any of the instructors, or the camp commissioner before the camp opens, can make appointments by writing to the camp commissioner, Hugo B. Selkel, 321 Crescent street, Waltham. Purpose: To stimulate good com- radeship, clean sport, honest effort and efficient scouting, with the spirit of responsibility and prompt obedience characteristic of the scout law. Camp motto: “Work well done is the best of fun.” Anti-Militarists are Set Right. “The training of the Boy Scout has often been looked at askance by anti- militarists,” _writes Charles _Henry West, C. I. E, in the London Weekly Dispatch, “but the readiness with which he has answered his country's call has given a certain semblance of truth to the belief that the Boy Scouts have always been prepared for war—a. subtle scheme for recruiting implanted in_every home! “Nothing could be farther from the truth. The Boy Scout Movement is, primarily and ° essentially, a peace movement, and its main object in life 1s purely and simply to generate good citizens. It is only directing and ac- cldentally, so to speak, that the good cltizen goes to war and as it is char- acter that makes the true soldier and the clvilian alike, it is the bullding of that which the Chief Scout has always kept in the forefront of the movement. “The Boy. Scout is undoubtedly one of the greatest assets we have in the present crisis. In many cases he is far better trained, and often far more technically proficient, than the aver- age recruit—but he s something more than he has yet shown himself as a man of war. He is the type of the man of peace whom not only the Empire calls for, but which ecivilization itself demands to weld all humanity into iation are: p vast Brotherhood.” DANIELSON AND DANIELSON Mr. and Mrs. James Perkins Married Fifty-Five Years—Funeral of Ar- thur Drew — Whitestone Worsted Company Again Increases Wages— State Highway Commissioner Ben- nett’s Letter About Main Street Im" provements.

MAIN STREET IMPROVEMENTS What is Recommended by State High- way Commissioner. The letter of State Highway Com- missioner Charles]. Bennet to Judge Harry E. Back relative to the improve- ment of Main street is as follows: Hartford April 5, '16. Harry E. Back, Esq., Danielson, 'Conn. Dear Sir:—With reference to our conversation of yesterday regarding hte improvement of the trunk line north through Danielson Main street, this department has always made the reconstruction of this road conditional upo nthe construction by the town of a sewer through this section. Having taken this attitude, it seems fair to state that if the town will con- struct this sewer, the state stands ready to reconstruct the highway. In my opinion, the best method of procedure would be for the town to construct the sewer during the present summer. In that event, the state will reconstruct the road during the fol- lowing summer. This will give the trench in which the sewer is con- structed an opportunity to settle and also make it possible for us to pro- vide in our budget of next year for the reconstruction of the road. The money for the reconstruction of roads has been allotted for the present year, but there remains the year 1917 to be taken care of from funds al- ready appropriated or to be received from automobile fees. Yours truly, (Signed) C. J. BENNETT State Highway Commissioner. Rev. C. H. Barber Improving. Advices form the Massachusetts General hospital at Boston indicate that Rev. Clarence H.

One Inmate at Town Farm Gashes Another With a Stock of Wood. In the city court Wednesday morn- ing Judge L. H. Fuller imposed a sentence of four months in jail on William Brennan, 56, who has been an inmate of the poor farm of this town. Brennan was charged with assaulting Poter Osfer, 82, anoth inmate. Brennan appealed from the sentence, but in default of bonds of $300 he was committed to Brooklyn jail Tt appeared from what was said in court that Brennan struck the aged Osier on the head with a picce of stove wood, after the two had engaged in an argument re’ative to how the keeping of the fire should be managed. One of the blows struck by Brennan open- ed a h over Osler's left eve. Dr. Omer Larue, town phystelan, said that on account of Osier's advanced years it would be impossible to forecast what the effect of the blow will be. In his own defence Brennan claimea that there has been arguments over running the fires at the town farm for some time, and that Osier struck him. Booming Pomona Organizations. Mrs. Susle G.
