The white of an esg, a little apple sauce, pieces of butter, half a tumbler of cream—countless 0dds and ends heve to be saved. Fre- quently they occupy a large part of the pantry crockery. Most of the im- provised receptacles lack covers: yet, it is important to protect thelr con tents from dust and flies. For that purpose, saucers and plates are inse- cure makeshifts. Paper covers will do the work. They are"light, clean and convenlent, and once the knack is acquired, are easy to make, Filter- paper, such as druggists and chem- ists use, is the best for the purpose, It is inexpensive, and so soft and tough that it can be folded several times without breaking. Cut out a square piece twice the size of the top of the tumbler or dish to be covered. Clip off the four cor- ners; then with your left hand, hold the octagonal piece, in place upon the tumbler. Roll the projecting edges of the paper inward and upwardg and press them against the outside of the tumbler or dish. If you have made the cap correctly, you ‘can easily remove it from any smooth-edged receptacle such as a tumbler, and use it again and again. MOUNTAIN LAUREL. Jersey City, N. J.

Mr, and Mrs. Joseph Bode visited friends in New London recently. Petition for Vote on License. Henry M. Danielson circulated a pe- tition for signatures that there may be a vote on the license question in Killingly at the annual town meeting on the first Monday of October. The securing of the required number of signatures is certain of accomplish- ment. Heavy fogs on recent nights have greatly bothered automobile drivers and some cases have been reported of homeward trips abandoned as a pre- ference to facing the danger of driv- ing as though blindfolded. SECOND SHIPMENT LOST Jacobs Company Suffers Through Submarine Destroying Another En- glish Ship. For the second time during the Eu- ropean war the Jacobs Manufacturing company has lost foreign-bound ship- ments_through the activity of subma- rines in destroving England’s ships of commerce. The firm's first loss was through the sinking of the Lusitania, the second through the loss of the Quesea, last weelt. Both shipments were insured, so the firm suffers no loss. Last week's lost order has been ordered by cable to be duplicated. The Jacobs firm recently received a large order to be shipped to the east- ern Russian port of Vladivostock. Will Discuss Milk Situation, Today at Plainfield, there is to be a meeting of the Willimantic-Providence Milk Producers’ association. This as- soclation is made up of men who ship milk from points zlong the Williman- tic-Providence line to Providence. The members will talk over the milk sit- uation and take such action as they may deem necessary relative to ship- ping under the open car system that is to replace the leased car svstem in use for years. The price at which milk is to be sold for the next few months will also come up for discus- sion, it is understood. Oppose Woman on School Board. Regardless of the merits of the pro- position, the announced desire of cer- tain residents, voters and taxpayers to have a woman member or women members on the town school commit- tee, is stirring up pronounced opposi- tion. In fact some ‘of the criticisms of the plan aye severe. Some of this criticlsm has been caused, it may be accurately stated, by too caustic crl ticism from the side that desires femkine representation on the com- mittee. The fact that Putnam and other Windham county towns has women representatives on school com- mittees counts not at all with the critics of the plan to have the same arrangement here. Brakeman Blanchard Recovering. Leon Blanchard, Dayville, who was injured last Saturday by a fall from the tender of a locomotive on which he was standing at Webster, has near- ly recovered from the effects of the accident. Mr. Blanchard sald Friday afternoon that he does not know ex- actly how he came to fail, but thinks his feet slipped cn the coal. He will refurn to his duties as a brakeman within a few days. VALUABLE COTTON DAMAGED Through Station Fire at Dayville— $20,000 Worth Stood in Cars to be Unloaded. The XKillingly Manufacturing com- pany had $20,000 worth of the finest grade of cotfon in cars that stpod cn the siding at Dayville when the freight station there was destroyed by fire Thursday afternoon. Some of this cotton was in ears that were damaged by the fire. Bales were set ablaze and Lad to be unloaded so that the burning cotton could be given at- tention. The damage to the cotton was considerable; just how much has not been stated, Other mill concerns that use Day- ville as thelr shipping point suffered losses by the firc, but a lucky con- cern was the Assawaga Woolen com- pany. Its daily shipment was in the freight house when the fire was dis- covered, but was all removed and is said all escaped injury. A shipment belonging to the Davis and Brown mill at East Killingly lies in the ruins of the freight house. Friday the origin of the fire remain- ed as much of a mystery, so far as could be learned, as ever. One result of the fire is the start- Ing of agitation in Dayville for more adequate means of protection from such disasters. A sinzle hydrant at the mill, more than 1,000 feet away, had to be depended on to fight the freight house fire. Years ago there was a hydrant sys- tem in the village, but it has rusted almost into dust. The mill company has a splendid pump for fire fighting urposes and 2 liberal amount of hose, t is now suggested that o fund be raised among the people of the village to meet the cost of installing a few hydrants at points of vantage. If this is done, it is claimed( Dayville, with its present fire apparatus will be in much better condition to protect ity property than is now possible. Guest From Worcester. Miss Ethel F.

GEOCRGE WARREN SUICIDES AT PROVIDENCE Member of Prominent Local Family Cuts His Throat, While Brooding Over 1l Health. Putnam relatives were notified Fri- day of the death by suicide in Provi- dence of Captain George Warren, near- ly all his life a resident in the town of Putnam. Captain Warren took his life by cutting his throat with a ra- zor. He bled to death within a few minutes. T.eon Warren, a son of the deceased, was in Putnam Friday making ar- rangements for his father’s funeral. He said that his father, who has been living_ with another son, Robert, in Providence, for several months, has not been well of late. Thursday Mrs. Warren, wife of the captain, left him alone in the house for a few minutes while she went to a drug store to tele- phone to her son, who is clerk at the Plaza hotel In PAwtucket. When she returned she found her husbang sit- ting on a chair which was placed be- side the sink in the Kkitchen. Blood was pouring from a deep gash in his throat and the razor with which he had inflicted the wound +was lying nearby. Mrs. Warren summoned aid, but nothing could be done to prevent Mr. Warren'’s death, which quickly occurred. While here Friday Mr. Warren's son said that his father had been in fail- ing health for some time. He did work in the spring—carpentry s as finely done as was all of n Warren's work in that line— o then has been able to do lit- tle, and he seemed to brood over his on. aptain Warren came of one of the foremost local familles, He was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Luther Warren and a_grandson of Sheriff George Warréd.

To be sure, there are specielly built racing cars that can travel faster than the Paige, but there is no car on the American market that will travel far- ther at sustained speed —and that is the real test of automobile efficiency. We have never attempted to build a car that will go faster than 65 miles an hour. But we have always taken pains to build a car that will go twenty-four hours in the day—seven days in the week.
