MILKMEN WANT TO GIVE UP BUSINESS Think They Can Get Better Results by Converting Milk Into Butter. On account of unprecedented con- ditions, the high cost of grain, the| high cost of labor, hard to obtain at any cost, the high cost of fertilizer material, we must produce forage for our cattle, said J. D. McCarthy, pres- ident of the Norwich Milk Producers Association, Thursday. At the pres- ent time there seems to be a feeling among the milkmen to give up their business as a great many seem to think they can get better results from their dairy by converting their milk into butter at the present high cost of that product and to feed the skim milk to pigs, chickens, etc. Now that be true enoush but the people of the city must have milk, one of the very cheapest foods they can buy todas and 1 believe it is Uup to us to get to gether and devise means to carry on the business at a profit or at any rate that we may receive a wages equiva- lent to the wages received by other workers. For those reasons and many others I might enumerate I believe it is the duty of every mah in the dalry industry to attend the Norwich Milk Producers Association Saturday at the Town hall at 1.30 o'clock. At the pres- ent time the demands of our state and also of the federal government appeal so strongly to us to_put our best ef- forts to the front. Now if ever is the proper time for us to get together for a general discussion of our business and to put it upon a firm basis, the same as any other line of businessmen would put theirs.

(Special to The Bulletin.) Hartford, April 19.—Rev. Robert Duniop, chaplain of the house in the 1915 session, offered the opening pray- or immediately after Speaker Healey called the house to order. ports were received and work on the calendar was under way when the or- Qer of the day was called at noon. The order was the act authorizing hom rule in towns having 10.000 or mo: inhablitants, which passed in the sen- ate and house, and was vetoed by Governor Holcomb. £ Old New England Sabbath. Mr. Hall of New Milford spoke in opposition to the measure as it had no_relation to the old New England Sabbath, and he told in vivid terms of those who made the Sabbath sacred in old New England. A lack of under- lying religious faith means ultimate decay. Nowadays there is reasonable recreation as can be seen by noting the trolley cars and the beaches and parks, devoid of baseball and the cir- cus tent or merry-go-round. Much is ‘lone illegally, and permitted, but it would be wrong to legalize these things that are permitted. He urged loyalty to the governor in this as in all matters reiating to the state. Martin Praised Governor. Mr. Martin of Orange said he re- gretted his position on.this bill, for he disliked to differ with him, for he be- lieved Governor Holcomb to be the best governor in the state. He ad- vocated the passage of the Dill and did not consider that he was disloyal to the governor or state. He said the governor had the right of his opinicn, and so did the members of the general sssembly, and he asked that the bill be judged on its merits. There are over 100,000 men working in the state on Sunday at present, by consent of the legislature, and this is not classed 2s a commercialization of the Sabbath, but when baseball and like recreation is being considered it is placed in the commercial class. He believed that illegal sports that are now permitted in some places and not in others. ought to be legalized, and this bill puts the matter direct to the vote of the people. It is the people who ought to decide, not any official in the state, as the speaker believed in a govern- ment by the people and by the people and for the people. There should be a law that will be respected and not violation of law that does not conform to the wishes of the people in some sections. He beMeved it would be better for the young men to attend moving pictures on Sunday rather than hang out in drinking and gambling places. He moved that the bill be passed, the veto of the governor not- withstanding. The Sabbath Defined. Mr. Smith of Mangfield, the clergy- man member, asked the membe-s to forget his profession temporarily, as his views on this matter might be con- sidered radical. He said he was a personal friend of the governor and disliked to disagree with him. Mr. Smith gefined the Sabbath day as the seventh day of the week, based on an encyclopedia interpretation of consid- erable length, and its gradual evolution into the Lord’s day, now observed on Sunday. That the reading was tire- some to members was evident by the lack of attention given to Mr. Smith. His speech helped carry the bill through when first considered, but during the reading of authorities -one ardent supporter of the bill declared: “Smith's reading from _encyclopedia and Bible will kill this bill deader than a door nail; this is not the time or place for a long sermon.” For nearly an hour he quoted biblical notes in sup- port of a more liberal Sunday. Admiral Cowles’ Hif Mr. Cowles of Farmington said: “This is an interesting discussion.” He said in reply to the statement that clubs were dens of iniquity as used on Sunday, and stated they were re- spectable, verging on extreme dull- ness. Loyal to Principle. Mr. Fenton of Willimantic said he fnad the highest esteem for the gover- nor and was loyal to the governor and state, but the matter under discussion was a matter of honest opinion. voted for the blil as a matter of ciple, and he would prefer to be dis- loyal to the governor than to his own principle, and therefore would vote to sustain the bill. Waitt Changes. Mr. Waitt of Sharon said the gov- ernor quoted that the present law per- mitted recreation, that was not of the speculative, money-making order. He aid not believe that the clergymar member believed that if Jesus Christ and His disciples yere on earth that they would attend a baseball game or moving picture show on Sunday, even If the reverend gentleman so inter- preted the testament. Mr. Waitt said he voted for the bill originally and perhaps unwisely. He said it was un- reasonable not to give all the towns Iike privileges in regard to Sunday observance, and he would vote against the bill and in support of the gover- nor's veto. Bowers for Baseball. Mr. Bowers of Manchester told of baseball belng permitted in Manches- ter illegally and he wanted it legalized, and therefore favored the bill. He would prefer a measure that would include all towns, regardless of popu- lation. Mr. Foord Favord. Ir. Foord of Stamford favored the passage of the bili on the ground that the people of the town he represented wanted the law, and hoped the bill would pass. He sald there was no feeling against the governor in this matter, as his opinion was respected, and the legislators had opinions that were perhaps worth while. Mr. Rogers of Mancheste: Mr. Rogers said he disliked to, but he did move the previous question, which prevailed. Mr. Martin made the closing arsument, said the present law was a joke, as the amusements and recreation must be held in public Don’t Hide Them With a Veil; Remove Them With the Othine Prescription This prescription for the removal of freckles was written by a prominent physician and is usually so successful in removing freckles and giving a clear, beautiful complexion that it is sold by any druggist under to_refund the money if it fails. uarantee Don't hide your freckles under a get an ounce of othine and re- cations should show a wonderful im- provement, of the lighter freckles vanishing entirely.

IN THE SENATE. In Concurrence With House, Passed Bill Closing Saloons on Memorial Day. Hartford, April 19.—Senator Sessions L. Adams of the Twenty-ninth district called the senate to order today and presided for a part of the day's ses- sion. Close Saloons on Memorial Day. The senate by an. almost unanimous vote went on record in favor of closing saloons on Memorial day. In bringing the matter up Senator Quigs moved the acceptance of the un- favorable report of the committee on excise on tke bill to close saloons on Memorial day and that the bill be re- jected. He briefly explained the bill and pointed out that at present saloons were closed on Christmas day. Senator Boyd said there was a great deal of merit in the biil and on his|{ motion the question was divided. Senator Neebe moved that the bill be recommitted. -He afterwards withdrew his motion. Toadying to G. A. R.7 Senator Neebe offered an amendment to allow the saloons to be opened at 1 o'clock in the afternoon on Memorial day. He said there was “a great deal of hysteria at the present time and great deal of toadying to the G. A. R. They would make a mistake if they denied the old veterans who =aved them In "61 the right to have a drink of liquor on Memorial day. Appointments. The committes on educition report- ed a resolution for the appointment of Arthur L. Stebbins, a resident trustee of Bacon acade: Colchester for the unexpired portion of the term ending July 1, 1917, to fill a vacancy caused by the death of Hamilton Waills. The Busisess Centor ot Werwies s O RE of the NEW%?IIE*%OOD Beautiful Mercerized Table Damask | NOW RECOGNIZED AS THE LEADING TABLE COVERING Ther.a’; a reason — or rather several reasons why this beautiful Mercerized Damask should have become so very popular. In the first place it is immeasureably superior to the lower priced linen damasks, and for a dollar a yard or less you can secure designs which will compare favorably with those of the most expensive linens. The second reason is the price—the most ex- | pensive and heaviest Mercerized Damask coating less | than a linen damask of rather indifferent quality. Thirdly it wears well and looks well with | repeated launderings, preserving the lustrous finish until worn out. With the war cloud hovering rather low it is the point of wisdom to make such savings as you can upon all purchases. Here is the chance to buy a superior American fabric—the best of its kind, and save money.
