Now that the Serbian troops are taking such a promineént part in the European war, having won their way to the last line of the Bulgars and the front page of the American newspaper, the citizens of Old Lyme e proud to think that their town as some part in Serbian affairs. 0ld Lyme is deeply interested in the Franco-Serbian field hospital of Am- erica. Miss Julia Sabine of Old Lyme is the field secretary of this association and the prime mover in its organization. Miss Sabine’s fath- er was the late Bishop Willlam T. Sabine of the Reformed Episcopal church. Before the bishop's death, several Wears ago, while his family occupied their charming colonial home on the Old Lyme village street that house was the center and gath- ering place for the young people of the town. While the members ot the family have scattered, as fami- lies are bound to, they still call Old Lyme their home and spend as much time there as they can. During the past summer Miss Sabine has made Old Lyme her headquarters in her work. Tt was early in 1915 that she em- barked for England where she in- tended to nurse or do some manner of relief work in connection with the war, although her plans were not completely formulated. On ship board she met some fellow passen- gery who were familiar with the conditions 1 Burope. They advised her not to go to England if she wished to serve humanity where most in need. In England there was already an abundance of women of a_high order of intellect and every added woman would be a drain on the resources of the land. “If you wish to be of the utmost use, go to Serbia.” Serbia seemed many hundred miles from home and friends, but Miss Sa- bine did not hesitate. Obliged to Flee. From England, in company with other volunteers, she sailed for Ser- bia to work there under the Serbian Red Cross. She was stationed at Uskub and her work was with the khildren who had been left home- less by the war, and she remaiffed there until the inhabitants wero obliged to flee, as the city was in the “path of the retreating Serbian army which had defended its coun- try ~ with the greatest valor until forced to retreat by the combined forces of Germany, Austria and Bul- garia. The rétreat was ome of the most terrible and most herofc of history. Tl equipped and scarcely clad, the { rooming house WILLIMANTIC OFFICE, i 67 Church St. Telephone 210-2. SHOT STRUCK HOUSE Gun Fired by Some Unknown Person at Home of John W. Hekeley John W. Hekeley, who lives in the house known as the Geary place on the Jordan road, was busy Monday after- noon trying to locate the person who shot at his house during the noon hour. About 12:15 Mrs. Hekeley, who was talking to her husband over the telephone, was greatly frightened by the discharge of a gun near the house, the report of which could be distinct- ly heard by Mr. Hekeley, who was in the city at the time. Upon investfga- tion it was found that the shot had #ruck the house near the window that was in a direct line with the telephone. Mrs. Hekeley stated that she had seen no signs of any one who could have been hunting in that vicinity during the morning. As yet the matter re- mains a mystery. November Police Beats. The changes in the police depart- ments beats for November will go into effect Wednesday as follows: Officer ‘Grady to Sodom, Officer Palhaus to Jackston street; Officer McArthur, Upper Main Street; Officer Enander, Main Street and Officer Hurley, day duty.

LEBANON MAN FINED Fred Lacomb ';ak $15 Watch Owned by John Peterson. i Two cases occupied the attention of the police court Monday morning, one of larceny and one of breach of the peace. Fred Lacomb, who gave his home as Lebanon, was charged with B a watch, valued at fifteen n John Peterson of this pies the same as Peterson who after making the discovery that his watch was gone made a_complaint to the po- 1i who upon searching Lacomb found the missing watch i nan inside vest pocket.

There were Americans doing Red Cross work in Serbia, and the French government, mindful of these and of the gener- c manner in which Americans had ven of their resources and them- selves in France and Belgium, asked that » fleld hospital be equipped and sent to Serbia by Americans. Miss Sabine savs that a committee was formed to help interest Americans in the project. It is the opinion of many that had it not been for Miss Sabine the committee would never bave been formed. She returned to America early this summer and began the work of raisine funds for the Franco-Ser- bian field hospital of America, the official title. hospltal will accomodate 200 men. It is divided into ten units or huts that hold twenty men cach. These are portable wooden huts that can be moved up to the firing line if necessary. Motor trucks will be used as ambulances. The personal of the entire hospital will be American volunteers. One of the interesting features of this organization is that every cent given to it is a cent for the suffering Ser- bian_soldiers. Not a cent is pald for salafies. Even the office force of the committec in New York, working there with little visible glory and not a hint of excitement, give their services. About $60,000 is needed for the complete equipment of the 200 bed hospital. Part of that sum has already been raised and several units or “huts” have been sent to Serbia and by this time must be in active service. One of the methods by which Miss_Sabine raised money for the condiction in -Serbia, dressed in the Serbian peasant costume and aided by lantern slides. In her talks she spent as little time as possible in bringing before her audience the ur- gent need of cash, but told in sim- ple and impressive words of the real nohihity of the Serbs. Mosl of us think of this compara- tively little known country as a wild, almost barbarous nation. Miss Sa- bine paints its natives as a simple but lovable people, honest and steadfast and willing to make any sacrifice for their country. The country may not be one of the most advanced in the world, but the peo- ple as a whole are by no means ig- norant and a scene on the streets of a Serkian city, shown on the screen, looked not uniike any Furopean city. Indeed, Miss Sabine said, with a twinkle in her eve, that she was able to buy smarter clothes in Ser- bia than in Athens, the fount of all calture.
