This is necessary to provide transportation for Boy Scouts, one hundred or more school _children who are to take part in the patriotic songs, the Tierney Cadets, and members of the Chamber of CCommerce who will not otherwise be supplied with transportation. It was voted by the committee to get in personal touch with every one of the eight hundred automobile owners in the town of Norwich, inviting them to take part in the parade and encourage their families to attend the exercises at Mohegan Hill. The refreshment committee consisting of Henry B. Davenport, Mrs. Channing M. Hunt- ington, Mrs. William A.

The opening day has been set for June 22nd at Mohezan Hill, this is on the 260th anniversary of the Bat- tle at Fast Great Plain. “irst the executive committee, con- sisting of Rev. Joseph Fl. Selden, Gen. Willlam A. Aiken and Hon. Wallace S. Allis, wishes it distinctly understood that this is in no way a local affair, it is representative of Fastern Con- necticut and embodies that part of the state lying east of the Connecticut River. The committee has secured as the orator of the day, Hon. Flavel S. Luther, president of Trinity College. Tt is most fitting that President Luther should be the orator at the opening ises of the Mohegan Trail, Pres- ther being a native of Brook- and s wel in this section of the state. = expected that the huge auto- family. all about it.

What the lasting effect will be can-only be answered in the pic- ture. We are too close to it now and the nations affected -are too widely separated by the war to be able to estimate and balance gaips and losses. The losses now seem to ua far great- er than the gains in the loss, forever of some great architeotural monu- ments of the historic past. The ca- thedral of Rheims is irretrivably de- troyed as to decoration, but not struc- tural The cathedrais at Soissons and Arras are injured.

The state pier in Bast New London is being nsed as a submarine chaser base by the United States government. The government has not taken over the Fastern Forwarding. company’s holdings there yet, but is simply using the pier under permission from the state. Four or five submarine chasers which are doing duty in nearby waters are docking there, and Friday the former dynamite ship Vesuvius tied up there. The pler amords excellent docking fa- cilities with its ample capecity l.nd easy accees. The submarine chasers are in com- mand of Commander Edgar. The com- mander is a retired officer, but was called upon for duty when the war emergency presented itself. A birdseye view of the harbor and Fisher’s ¥sland sound would give one a reminder of the fact that this courtry is reaily at war. Submerine chasers, submarines, torpedo boat destrovers and other nawal vessels scoot here and there, visible signs of the naval acti ity of -wartime, while at might search- lizhts sweep the harbor searching for a possible unwelcome visitor.

It is the earnest de- sire of the committee that all aitomo- bilebile owners in the town of Nor- wich togethar with their families, will report to the transportation commit- iee if they are desirous of taking part in_this feature of the day’s program. The part the reception committee can play, the part you can do. to‘make this a grand success will be that along publicity lines.

Took " very M1SS WOOD COLLECTS ALL MONTVILLE TAXES. Woman Has Established a Record for Collections in T State, Miss Susie Wood, tax collector for the town of Montville, has an envia- ble record in the matter of tax collec- tions. Of a total of $30,000. in taxes for the 1915 rate, Miss Wood has collected all but $41.84, and that amount was abated by the town officials for various reasons. This undoubtedly establishes a record for Connecticut in tax collect- ing and one which it will be hard to beat. The rate hook of the town of Mont- ville for 1915 showed $29,096.50 for taxes and $187.23 for interest to be collected. Miss Wood succeeded in collecting $28,634.68 in taxes. $197.28 for” interest and $377.10 for liens and the exemptions amaunted to $43.75. This Jeft only a balance of $41.8¢ un- collected and this amount was abated bechuse of death, inability to locate property owners who had moved from the town and other rlecessary reasons. This record was accomplished only by dint of hard work on the part of Miss. Wood. She has exerted every possible effort to the tax collections, Wwith the resuit that ehe has- distin- guished herself among the tax collect- ors of the state. Miss Wood is a daughter of the late George N. Wood, for many vears tax collector of Mont- ville and a deputy sheriff. LISBON REGISTRATION. List of Men in That Town Who Are Subject to Selective Draft.
