The business session com- menced at 7.30 o'clock and was follow- ed by a stereopticon lecture on For- estry by State Forester Walter O. Filley of New Haven. His lantern slides were made by himself and gave a very interesting and complete illus- tration of his talk. Later refresh- ments were served and a smoke talk enjoyed. BEGINS YEAR WITH $336. Rev. Father Hart’s Report Shows Prosperous Year for St. Patrick’s Church. The annual report of St. Patrick's church, read at the 10 o'clock mass Sunday morning, shows the parish to be -in good financial standing. The amount on hand Dec. 31, 1915, 'was $314.01. The total amount of money received during the year by collections and from other sources amounted to $5,362.25. The total amount expended during the year was $5,026.01. The balance Jan. 1, 1917, is $336.24. During the year new cement walks have been laid in front of the church and a steam heating system has been installed at a cost of nearly $1,800, which has greatly added to the com- fort of the church. The parish starts the year favorably, Rev. M. R. Hart and his peoble working well together for the church interests. Elects Officers.

The management of the house gave a free exhibition of the picture for the information of the se- lectmen, they to decide whether the picture ‘was to be shown the public, or so much thereof as would pay the admission_price. The free exhibition extended beyond the regular matinee Opening time, hence the crowd on the stairway. The selectmen 6id not dis- approve, the doors were opened to the public and the picture was reeled off. It is said the selectmen remained through the second performance. At the annual meeting of the West- erly Exchange for Women's Work these officers were elected: Miss Har- riet Cottrell, president; Mrs. George A- Champlin, vice president;. Mrs. George N. Burdick, treasurer: Miss Baldwin, superintendent. The board of mana- gers is compesed of the officers and the following named ladies: Mrs. C. Byron Cottrell, Mrs. James M. Pendle- ton, Mrs. Wiiliam . Segar, Mrs. Jane Phillips, Mrs, Charles Perry, , Mrs. Henry Milner, Mrs. E. V. Moulton, Miss Elizabeth Taylor, Mrs. Orville Still- man, Mrs. Frank C. Pagan and Mrs. David McG: Newell. Local Laconics. Councilman Frederick E. Fowler has returned from a business trip to Ohio. There will be a regular session of the Westerly probate court today (Tues- day). Bronze eagles surmount the bronze work of the counters in the Industrial Trust company. There are two movie houses in Paw- catuck that could not exist without Westerly patronage. The officers of Granite council, R. A., were installed Monday evening by Grand Chaplain E. Le Roy. A certain film was the subject of discussion in the Congregational and Gatholic churches of Pawcatuck Sun- ay. A cocking main of large proportion was pulled off Sunday afternoon over the river and not far from the village of Pawcatuck. James M. Pendleton, Rev. Joseph L. Peacock and Arthur L. Perry will at- tend the Brown university alumni din- ner in the Copley-Plaza hotel, Boston, tonight (Tuesday). There is no move as vet to build a hotel at Watch Hill to take the place of the burned Watch Hill house. In consequence the hotel accommodations at the hill during the next season will be inadequate. 2 An_automobile operated by William Miner of White Rock was run out of Vincent lane Sunday afternoon direct- ly into a Watch Hill trolley car. A front wheel of the auto was smashed. No her damage. Moving pictures of alleged immoral tendencies are denounced from _the Paweatuck pulpits, specially aimed at a r2el announced for exhibition In a local movie house during the present weck. The pulpit attacks had their effect on the patronage. Herbert M. Gaffey, who died in Me- morial hospital, New London, Satur- day, had many acquaintances in West- , where he was a frequent visitor. He was a son of the late Thomas F. Gaffey, a former owner of the Martin house ‘property in Westerly. The address of Attorney John J. Fitzgerald of Pawtucket on Opportuni- ty was a pleasing feature of the social session at the Catholic club Sunday afternoon. Interesting talks were also made by Fathers Kelledey and Dreyer of the Church of the Immaculate Con- ception. While there is évidently apparent in- terest in the work of Billy Sunday in Boston in the local pulpits, still there was not sufficient enthusiasm among church people to take advantage of a reduced round trip railroad fare to Boston and return ‘to see and hear Billy Sunday. Rev. F. A. MacDonald r:ade an effort to secure the required number for the reduced fare, but did not succeed. Prof. W. H. P. Faunce, president of Brown university, in speaking to the students of the Westerly High school. said that a session attended by 800 students of a Rhode Island college these questions were unanswered: “What is the prevailing language of South America?’ “Which city, New York or New Orleans, is nearest to South America?’ The questions were not put to the student body of the Westerly High school INVESTIGATING EXPLOSION IN EAST LONDON Proper Claims for Damage and Injury to be Met. London, Jan. 22, 6:20 p. m.—The in- quest over the victims of last Friday's explosion, was opened in East Lon- don, formal evidence being given. The mayor of the borough testified that homeless, numbering 1,000 had now been provided with temporary shelt- er and that the government depart- ments and local ~uthorities were pre- pared to do their utmost to relieve distress. He had received a message from the king and queen expressing profound sympathy. A representative of the ministry of munitions announced that all proper claims for injury or damage would be met by the ministry. The inquest tl::fiuvon was adjourned for a fort- night. All ® Morivhl Househnla . To have the pains and aches of a bad balck removed—to be entirely free from annoying, dangerous urinary dis- orders, is enough to make any kidney sufferer grateful. The following advice of one who has suffered will prove helpful to hundreds of Norwich read- ers. Mrs. C. B. Fowler, 581 Fast Main Street, Norwich, says: “I am very seMom without Doan's Kidney Pllls in the house, which I buy at The Lee & Osgood Co. I have attacks of back- ache, .which' come on from a cold. Sometimes overwork brings on dull pains 'across my kidneys. I don’t use Doan's Kidney Pills continually but only when my back aches and feels weak and then I have never failed' to got reliet.

Skating was seldom better than on Saturday and Sunday. Everybody and his girl, and some more besides, en- joved the invigorating sport on both the Ashland and Aspinook ponds. There were several closely contested hockey games and not a few exhibi- tions of fancy skating. EXPENSES $955 LESS. Borough’s Annual Report Shows Re- duction in Running Expenditures During 1916.

Health Officer’s Report. Health Officer Dr. G. H. Jennings males the following statement regard- ing infantile paralysis as connected with the borough's success in keeping it away: The early summer brought infantile paralysis to Connecticut, the chief point being from New York city. A large number of summer boarders and visitors come annually from this point to the state. They brought the dis- ease in New York city, there was a larger percentage of cases In our own state. The severity of this disease not only in the large percentagze of deaths but also in the permanent dis- ability of many who do not die, and the little known as to treatment or prevention, led to the early establish- sale closes. ‘KUPPENHEIMER | ~$16.50 Reduced from $20.00, $22.00, $25.00, $28.00 and $30.00 POSITIVELY ENDS THIS WEEK One Kuppenheimer Suit or Overcoat is as good as another comparatively, there fore values are just as good today as when the sale started.

This quarantine was established by most of the towns, boroughs and cities of eastern Connecticut, Gris- wold and Jewett City being of the number. This was continuous here trom June 21 to November 5. The quarantine was without a doubt effective in the prevention of this dreaded disease. Also all children un der 16 years of age who traveled by public conveyance were quarantined for three weeks, so far as coming in contact with other children or enter- ing _any public place. There were no cases in the borough. lee Harvesting Held Up. Three inches of snow with a coat- ing of sleet which fell Sunday night held up the ice cutting that was to haye begun Monday. e snow was cleared from a large tract that was plowed Sunday. James Shea said late Monday evening that as the mercury had dropped 10 degrees in a few hours he would start cutting Tuesday. A large per cent. of Sunday’s work was 106t as the thawing snow, with the thermometer registering 50 all day filled the plow grooves with water which will be frozen -this morning.

We do not hesitate to say that a timely use of Castoria would save man of these precious lives. Neither do we hesitate to say that many of these infa deaths are occasioned by the use of narcotic preparations. Drops, tinctures and soc ing syrups sold for children’s complaints contain more or less opium or morphin They are, in considerable quantities, deadly poisons. Inany quantity, they stupif retard circulation and lead to congestions, sickness, death. There can be no dang in the use of Castoria if it bears the signature of Chas. H.
