Greene, of Hope Valley, has the distinction cf being the oldest druggist in point of service in Rhode Island, having been in the business for ffty-five years, spent as a drug clerk in Westerly, ang the rest of the time in Hope Val- ley. Mr. Greene was born in the town of Hopkinton and received his early education in the private schools of Westerly and later avas graduated from the Massachusetts College . Pharmacy. pharmacy of Potter and Champlin in Westerly as a clerk. It was his youth- ful ambition to become a physician, but partly because of too close apph- cation to his studies and his duties constitution that was never over To- bust he was compeiled at the end of five years to give up his work because of 11l health. At that time physiclans advised him fo go farther inland away from the damp atmosphere of the coast, and. following his advice, he went to Hope Valley and opened a drug store in the Bank building, in the rooms now oc- cupied by the Washington Trust com- pany. His reception when he first went to Hope Valley was far from cordial. Then as now in many instances the drug store was sometimes used as a blind for the illegal sale of intoxi- cating liquor and the temperance lov- Ing folk of the town of Hopkinton had no desire to have an institution of that sort located in their most important village. Although Mr. Greene was an earnest advocate of prohibition and an out- spoken opponent of the promiscuous use of narcotics, he made liftle or no offort to quell the storm that his com- ing had stirred up, but he conducted his business in such a way that it was not long before some of those who had most bitterly opposed the opening of the drug store became his best friends and’ regular patro Major Alexander H. Providence. who was a lieutenant colonel before the reorganization of the Coast Artillery corps, and who is at present the senior major, has been assigned to command the first battalion of Rhode Island troops to be. ordered cut by direction of the federal awar department in _the pending troublous times. The battalion is composed of the Second company. of Providence, Captain Washburn, Fifth ompany of Westerly, First Lieuten- ant Freestone commanding: Twelfth compary of Woonsocket, Captin Shun- ney, and the Fifteenth company of Pawtucket Captain 'Connors. Steps have been taken to recruit the com- panies to the full strength, and the Fifth company has shown _ activity along that line. Although Westerly's population is infinitesimal in compari- son with the cities, still it is believed there is patriotic spirit sufficient in Westerly to practically double the present strength of the Fifth company. There are many men enrolled in the constabulary force that would fit in much better in the local military command, and now that call for re- cruits has been made it is expected there will be a general response. It is urged that there is no self-sacri- fice, no real patriotism, in membership in the constabulary, for those who are eligible for military service, who are physically fit to serve their state and nation. Men who are eligible to the national guard are not permitted to enroll in the Connecticut Home Guard, an organization that is to be fully uni- formed and equi] ‘and drilled to meet any ems that may arise within ks borders of the state. The Westerly branch of the constabulary force is practically an organization of special constables of the town. The Pawtucket and _Woonsocket companieg are in Major Bourdon A. Babcock’s battalion, and the _ Fifth company is Major Arthur N. Nash's battalion. . Both these majors are residents of Pawcatuck in_the Stonington and Major Babcock is serving his second term as representa- town of Stonington in the Connecticut legislature.

There was a meeting Sund noon of the members of the Westerly local of the International Hod C: riers and Building Trades Union, and the demand made for an increase In pay, made of employers a month ago, was the topic of @scussion. It was stated that if theé demand is not met a strike will ensue. A committee was appointed to deliver the ultima- tum to’the contractors. The demand is for a flat rate of $3 for an eight hour day. The pay is now from $2 to $240 a day. The railroad laborers who struck for an increase of from 20 to 30 cents an hour, or $3 for a ten hour work day, are still out.
