These new corn flakes are distinctive in that they bear a self-developed flavor all their own—the delicate, fascinating flavor of choice, white Indian corn. like other Un- flakes, they do not depend on cream and sugar to make them palatable. Try a handful without cream and sugar—note the fine flavor and new form; also the ti ny “bubbles” on each flake. hese bubbles are a distinguishing charac- teristic and are produced by the quick, intense heat of the new process of making, which also brings out the wonderful flavor. Altheugh the New Post Toasties are a great improvement in flavor and form, they cost no more than ordinary flakes. breakfast.

Y., July 4— Charles E. Hughes, speaking at the nearby village of Easthampton today, told a Fourth of July audience that what America needs just now above all other things in an intelligent compre- hension of the ideals of democracy. He asserted the nation needs more than thrills in its patriotism and s dream of America was of a country officered by its men actuated by no thought of self. He devoutly hoped, the nominee declared, for a new birth of the sentiment of unity from the country's present perils. We Are Not a Rash People. “We are not a rash people,” he said. “We are not filled with a spirit of mili- tarism; we are not anxious to get into trouble, but if anybody thinks the spirit of service and sacrifice is lost and that we have not got the old sen- timent of self-respect, he does not un- derstand the United States.’* Mr. Hughes motored over from his summer home here to review the vil- lage preparedress parade and had not intended to address the crowd. At the close of the programme, however, he consented to speak briefly cking Up Threads of Old Relations. “I have been long on silence and very short on talk,’ he said. “It is an odd e nce that I am going throug] <ing up the threads of old relations. I think I have lived at least five years in the last three weeks. “One of the pleasantest incident urn is to be sojourning with y my |in the shadow of the Ame Wherever that flag floz shrine. “It is all very well to talk about the ion and the strong s ains, but tf men—men who €o dited it, men who couldn’t the zuest of ter, Mrs. William E.

Taylor, who was called to attend Grace Sheffield, five years of age, has diagnosed the case as infan- tile paralysis, and says it is the first case to appear in this section. The patient is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Sheffleld, of Pawcatuck, and is visiting at the home of John Holland in the borough. The doctor reports that the patient has shown signs of improvement. The American flag was very much in the open on July Fourth in ob- servance of the day we celebrate, al- though there was not much real cele- bration in Stonington. Mr. and Mrs. Joseph F.

Men Must Be Willing to Di It is because we had men who were willing to suffer, to die, to venture and to sacrifice that we have the coun. try, and it is only by that spirit that we will ever be able to keep a coun- 1 love to think of those hearty men coming here with the spirit that led all pioneers farther and farther west, the same spirit which in every part of our land has accounted for our development. The Kind of Men We Want. “Quiet men, not noisy men; sensible men, not foolish men; straight men, honest men; dependable men, real men —that is what we mean by American- ism. There is a vast amount of good judgment in this country, much more than the headlines of our newspapers seem to indicate. There is a vast amount of thoughtfulness in this coun- try. - We are not rash people. We are not filled with a spirit of militarism. We are not anxious to get into grou- bl but if anybody thinks that the t of service and sacrifice is lost and that we have not got the old sen- timent of self-respect, he doesn’t un- derstand the United States.

About 2 o'clock, after several assaults had been repulsed, a massed attack was launched on the work and succeeded in capturing it for the fourth time. Our troops maintain their po- sitions in the immediate neighborhood of the work. An intense artillery fire was directed by the enemy on Damloup and La Laufee. No event of impor- tance occurred on the rest of the front.” LITTLE CHANGE ON THE BRITISH WAR FRONT. Germans Have Brought Up Reinforce- ments from Other Points. London, July 4, 10.05 p. m—The two British official despatches issued to- day record little change in_the situa- tion on the British front. They show that the Germans have brought up strong reinforcements from other parts of thelr line and are stubbornly con- testing every yard of the British ad- vance. Torrential rains today, how- ever, hampered the offensive prepara- tions and the British action was con- fined mostly to consolidating the ground already won. If a Tree is Handy.

Lewiston, Me., July 4—The Ameri- Gan youth of the future must be taught a patriotism without boasting, a love of country without chauvinism or jingoism. a reverence for the flag without a trace of brag or bluster, de- clared Secretary Daniels, of the navy department, speaking herg today at a Fourth of July celebration. “The day has passed,” said Secre- tary Daniels, “when the spread eagle orator boasted in _stentorian tones that Uncle Sam could whip anything in creation, but the day must never come when the American youth will not glary in the victories of Putnam and Marion and Washington, or when we are not thrilled with enthusiasm when the victories of John Paul Jones, Perry and MacDonough are related.” ‘America, said the speaker, is broadening its viewpoint and getting away from a parochial patriotism. “Our parents and teachers,” said he, “must point out that all wisdom will not die with us and that the vir- tues we esteem are found in every na tion under every sky. Steam, electri- city and wireless have made this a very small world indeed and. travel has ended the provincialism that se: only the good in one's own country.” Litchfield—FEugene M. Curtiss of Litchfield was granted a divorce from Fannie Curtiss in the superior court at Winsted on the grounds of adul- tery. He was also given the custody of ‘their minor children.
