Mr Burdon laid emphasis saying that we may either build & house of reverence or if we do not use great care we_may build a house of irreverence.

Norwich chapter of the Red Cross held its annual meeting in one of the stores in the Thayer building on Sat- urday afternoon at 4 o'clock, when of- ficers were elected for the ensuing year and reports on the activities of the past year presented and accepted. Chairman Francis J. Leavens pre- sided. Mrs. R. W. Perkins, secretary, presented aer report, which was as follows: The annual meeting of the Norwich chapter of the American Red Cross was held in the common council chamber in the town hall on Oct. 80, 1915, Chairman Francis J. Leavens presided at the meeting and the scope of the past vear's work was covered in the reports of the secretary and treasurer, which were read and ac- cepted. The re-election of Mr. Leavens as president and Mrs. R. W. Perkins as secretary and treasurer took place, and the executive board was increased from three to six members, as follows: Mrs. B. P. Learned, Miss Ella Norton, Mrs. J. C. Averili, Mrs. A, Thatcher Otis, Miss Mary Osgood and Mrs. Horatio Bigelow. Later in_the year the name of Mrs. James L. Smith was added. A discus- sion followed as to the advisability of opening a room in the business sec- tion of the town, where the public might carry on work for the war suf- ferers or for refugees. It was decided not to do this until after the holiday season. The sale of Christmas seals was carried on as usual. Immediately af- ter Thanksgiving printed postals were sent to mill owners and local business men, serving simply as reminders that the terasurer would furnish them di- rect with seals if they continued to feel interest in the work. It is simply a yearly contribution to the work of prévention of tuberculosis and of aid- ing those already suffering from this dread disease. The tradesmen and millmen attach them to their pay en- velopes as usual. The weck before Christmas the seals were placed on sale in the Eoston store, Porteous & Mitchell, tne lobby of the postoffice and in a room of the Thayer building temporarily used for the business of the parcel post. These sales were made by young ladies placed by us who were paid a small commission. Through the generosity of Judge John M. Thayer a room on the ground floor of his building on Franklin square was opened on Jun. 10, 1S16, for work for the war sufferers and refugees. Our capital was a large stock of falth and $10, which immedi- ber, being in charge each half day, for the giving out of garments to be made ately began to receive additions.

On Aug. 4 an informal executive meeting was held at the home of the secretary to consider the question of granting a pet| n from Washington for a contribution to aid in making up the deficit incurred in the publication of the Red Cross Magazine. It was voted to contribute §z4 from the treas- ury of the regular fund. In the late summer, under the auspices of the Red Cross, Miss Florence Williame of Yantic organized a class in elementary hygiene and first aid. Through the courtesy of the president, the lecSures were given at the Backus hospital Miss Kathleen Dowd as instructor in hygiene and Dr. Agnew as first aid instructor gave their services, which was indeed most generous. To them and to the hospital authorities we ex- tend our most cordial _appreciation. The "young ladies are about to finish the course and after examination will receive their diplomas, be registered at Washington, and will be thoroughly competent to serve as nurses’ aids. The members of the class are Miss Florence Willlams, president; the Misses ~ Winifred Welles, = Edith Youns, Gladys _Preston, Katherine Brown, Marion Powelson, Margaretta Johneon, _Christine Gregson, Ruby Vaughn, Ruth Homilton and Mary White. Through enforced reasons some of the class were obliged to drop out, but a large majority ha completed the lessons. It is hoped that later other classes may be formed in this useful branch of the Red Cross activities. Through the continued kindness of Judge Thayer a room in his building was opened for the second season on Oct. 10th. By previous agreement with a Boston hospital, where the correct making of surgical dressings is taught and where enormous quantities are sent from all over New England, for sterilization and for forwarding to the allies, a nurse was sent to us to give on Oct. 10th and 1lth lessons in this work. The members of the class were Mrs. Charles Preston, Mrs. Wi Norton, Miss ~Delia _Leavens, Mary Richards, Miss Minnie Keppler, Miss ione Haviland, Mrs. Anton Nel- son, Miss Ilorence Williams, Mrs. Frank Rogers, Miss Helen Williams, Miss Annie Williams and Mrs. R. W. Perkins. ‘The nurse, Miss Bunker, was very clear in her explanation of the hy sienic reason of every stop in the method of correctly making the dress- ings. A Immediately afterward the’ work was temporarily interrupted, but through the unfailing courtesy and unlimited OR STOMACH PAIN INFIVE MINUTES “PAPE'S DIAPEPSIN” MAKES SICK, SOUR, GASSY, STOMACHS FEEL FINE.

They know these are the and most famous tonics. Read ult in Mrs. Mason's case “I keep house for my little family of two, and got nto a weak, nervous, run-down condition. 1 was tired and weak and did not know what ailed me. My doctor prescribed Vinol. I noticed an improvement before I had finished the first bottle, and I am now feeling fine and doing all my housework.” Mrs. M. S. Mason, 203 Passalc St. Trenton, N. J.

BECOME SCOUTS NOW Way is Found to Give Them Pleasures Enjoyed for Years by Boys in Cities The country boy who lives so far from other boys that it is not practi- cal for him to join a scout group or patrol, may now become a Boy Scout without becoming a patrol member. This has ju: been announced at na- tional headquarters. Wherever a boy is located he may now have all the fun that scouts everywhere are hav- ing, he may become a member of the Boy Scouts of America, the great or- ganization of more than 200,000 bo: led by the most eminent men of this coun among whom are the presi- dent and the two former presidents. To thousands of boys from the backwoods of Maine to the ranches of California and from the Everglades of Florida to the plains of the great northwest, who have written to na- tional headquarters and begged to be enrolled as scouts, the answer has al- ways been “You must form a troop or join a troop already organized.” In an enormous number of cases, however, the boys have found it im- possible to do either of these. Yet in spite of the disappointment, these boys lost none of their enthusiasm and are yet as eager to become scouts now that their time has come. “Now we couldn't help admiring these boys for their grit and spiri writes the Chief Scout Bxecutiv know they nhad good scout stuff them, so we decided to work out a plan which would enable such boys to become regular scouts and allow them to wear the uniform and badges and pass their tests and have all the fun scouts enjoy. “For a time we thought we would | call these boys Lone Scouts. But that name didn’t seem to fit very well— for we don’t think they will be lone- some a bit. Then we hit upon the name Pioneer Scouts and that seemed to fit them perfectly, for they are to be a picked group of boys in the same way that the old pioneers who pushed 'back the frontier and conquered the wilderness were a picked group of men—men with courage and grit wie tackled their work with a vim and would not let discouragements down them. “And so the boys we take in as Plo- neer Scouts are to be high grade ma- terial. They will be ploneers of the movement, each in his own locality, living the life of a scout, showing the people what a boy scout is and open- ing the way for Yurther expansion of the movement. We already have in our office the names of more than 1,- 000 boys who are anxious to become Pioneer Scouts.” Toast to Mothers.

POST-MISSION SERMON BY ST. PATRICK'S RECTOR. Rev. J. H. Broderick Preaches Sunday From the Parable of the Sower. At the high mass in-St. Patrick’s church Sunday, Rev. J. H. Broderick reviewed the recent two weeks' mis- sion held in the parish, stating that, as a result of the convincing sermons and urgent call to sinners of the Franciscan Fathers tully 300 more per. sons had been at church during th t two Sundays than at any time for our years. This indicated that at least that number of careless Catholics had been brought to realization of their ob- ligation to attend jpass on Sunday and on holy days of Obligation. He ex- pressed the hoge that they would con- tinue in the path of righteousness. The maximum electric. rate to resi- dence customers in St. Louis has been voluntarily reduced from 9 to 8.5 cents per kilowatt-hour- Choosing the parable of the Sower as his theme, Father Broderick likened some members of the parish to those mortals referred to by the Saviour, for whom tbe seed of God's word has fall- special services, the Catholic Tran- script, offieial organ of the diocese of artford, s “or_iutivndance and enthi would be difficult to match the E ciscan Fathers’ mission which closed St. Patrick’s church, Norwich, Sun- day. Other parishes will have to look to their laurels, for this was, accord. ing to press reports, a banner mission. UNION LYCEUM. Program Given at Grace Memorial Baptist Church Sunday Afternoon.
