A short street parade ana a rally on Union _square _at which_stirrin dresses were given by Mayor Allyn L. Brown, Major Fred A. Fox, Judge John H. Barnes and Attormey Joseph T. Fan- ning featured the drive for recruits launched Saturday night by the Third Go, C. A, C. N. G, and which resulted in the securing of 14 applications Por membership. Promptly 745 o'clock the com- pany, headed by Tubbs' Military band, jeft the state armory on Frank- lin street, and all along the line of. march the ‘Sammees” received the hand. The streets were crowded with People who were thrilled and_inspired at the sight of the boys in olive drab marching along. At 7.30 o'clock the courthouse beil was rung for about 15 to 20 minutes, as the parade struck lower Broad- way it was sounded again. A short concert was given by the band at the square. Captain Williath R. Denison march- ed his men on one side of the court- house steps, where the speaking was held. His Honor Mayor Allyn L. Brown presided and introduced the speakefs. In part Mayor Brown said: ladies and Gentlemen: There afe — at jbut a few words that I have to say to vou tonight, for T am here to pre- sent the speakers of the evening rath- er fhon to speak myself. I only wish therefore in opening it to tmpress up- vou the importance of this meet- ing. The criticism may be made that those who don't go themselves should not he urging their fellow eitizens to enlist. However there are reasons and more reasons than most of us Wwieh there were, why the government and circumstances won't let us all go. But as Préesident Luther remarked a few dars ago, irrespective of who gives it, and Wwithout regard to any criticism which might be made of thé Parade and Rally Held on Union Square—Large Crowd Gave “Sammees” a Hand Along the Line of March— tablished a_system of siavery land, for which the future would hold no consolation, and for which it could give no excuse and bring no recorh- pense. The skill of our foe is beyond m ure and its determination is limit to humble the flag of our country. Germany has made a subject of laughter England's long worn ttle of mistress of the #eas. She never would have entered upon hér whr to acquire dominition over the world without having weighted well her chances of overthrowimg us in_defeat. Considering her préparation made to destroy our power and wrest from us our liberty, we have nd timie to lose if we have the disposition.to make the sacrifice needed to meet the énemy of our homes, our national honof, our country and the rights of civilized man. The voung man who belfeves he is going into this war, should not hesitate to associate himself with _this local company. In the triald wWhHich he Must pass through he will have the advan- tage of being associated with his neighbors and those who were his friends in the days of peace and he will have the advantage of being in training with those who already have had the benefit of military ifistruction. Beyond all else he will have the doublé honor of being recorded in the hemrts of his countrymen as a voluntéer. Any military service for the United States is indeed honorable, but es- pecially honorable is service given as a voluntary offering. It is to be re- garded that young mien are (he ones who must make ready for the sacrifice. But that is one of the decrees of na- ture. The voung are the ones who can bring our arms to vietory. The president of the United States, the secretary of war, all the filitary experts of our nation indorse the plan of voluntary service, for it meéans imi- mediate service and the moral éfféct of it is beyond measure. Remember that it has been alwiys & characteris- tic of Connecticut to furnish _through Her volunteéers more troops tham the number officially called for. The mon- uments in Chelsea Parade and the Little Plain, the memorial table at the ee Academy. tife in every flag and the Grand Army marker pro- claim the glory of the volunteer and cemetery in Nerwich with the little bedeech you to come into line with jwar and blood to obtain that great prize. Lloyd George, Prime Minister of Britain made two speeches last week—one in Glasgo agd the other in Duhdee. In those speeches he said that the Allles would win this war With the heip of American money and American troops and he told the truth. He also sald that after the victory had been won by our aid that France should have Alsace-Lorrain, Poland would be an autumnous state, Enzland would take all of the German colonies in Africa; and England would have charge over and control of Mesopotam - ia, Armenia, Palestine, Syria and all the Near East. Nothing said about what poor Russia was to have. Yet this England is the same nation that for over 100 vears has prevented Russia from having an outlet to the océans. It is the same England that combined with France and Turkey, prevented Russia in the Crimean war from reaping her reward by having an entrance through the Dardanelles. The same England, the same France, the same Germany and the same Rus- sia that sat supiney by and saw God's chosen peopie abused and killed, and Armenian Christians ravished and butehered. “As ye sow &0 shall ve reap.” said the Almighty, and today those nations are reaping. We are furnishing money, food and men, and it i8 out duty when this war is over to see that the treaty of peace entered into is an honest and righteous peace for all mankind. It is not simply the winning of batties and the capturing of fleete—bat It is 0 see that at the end wise laws are established and national happiness.

You aré here tonieht to hear a message which is true, to listen to the appeal of vour country in ite time of need. It is hard for us to realize that we are at war. The mere fart that 3000 miles lies bétween us and the bat- tieftelds of Furope' makes it difficult for us to reals Tt is nevertheless tiue. Our citizens have been killed by the enemy. however, and on the high séas, and Jf the reports that come to us are true the hlood of German &ailots has heen made to flow by the acts of our armed forces. We are at war, in the midst of the greatest death strugcle of all history. Those of yvou who heard Judge erson of Bridge- port speak in the town hall recently were brought to realize that. Germany Carrying Out Plans. Gefmany has already praéticaily ar- rived to pigtion her pla She has seized C(amtral Kurope and only wantscto hold .on. She has captured iron and coal mines of Trance. muni- tion plants of Belgium and grain fields of Rumania have met her extra needs. The Ttalian army is unable to take the offensive effectively because through lack of fuel her munition plants can operate but two-fifihs of the time and ammunition is lacking. England and France are all but ex- hausted so far as their man -power as well as thefr other résources 6. The German fleet remains Intact and in perfect readiness to come forth, while the fects of Fnsland and France which have defended us so nolyy so far are dependent upoh ofi for fuel and_their suuply is now nesrly ex- hausted.

And if we must fight, where shall it Ve, on the fields of Franée of the hores of Connecticut? Let it he where we can fight to the best advantage and where our resourcés will count the most.

These men in our local compantes will be called into the federal service within the next few davs. Here is a company that needs thirty-five men to fill up its quota. History shows that Norwich ha& more fhan dome its part in past wars, but fhat doesn't answer for this time. You voung are thé only ones who can keep'that record ciean for the future. Won't yvou then, do your part, enlist, choose your comrades in arms and hi so do- ing g0 forth with them, not only to defend your country, but to do horor to ¥ fown and cify as well. As ihé”next speaker Mayor Brown intréduced Major Fred A. Fox, who is a charter member of the Third C. and who has taken much interest in the company. Major Fox urged for recruits, explained the benefits that the boys who enlist In the company would receive. He referred to the clean record of duty the company h maintained in the past and he em Pphasized the need of securing enough men to bring the company up to full war strength. Judge Barnes in part safd: If four vears ago the statement had been made that tonight we would be out here on Union Square in connec- tion with our Deloved country being at war with a foreign = power—we would have thought the person crasy. who uttered it. Yet the fact that we dre at war—is an absolute proof of the truth of theé book <we call the Bible. Tt is there predicted that na- tion shall rise against nation—and that man cannot govern himself. It teaches us that war will continue un- til christanity in reality and truth reigns on this earth, and that time is not_yet. Awar back in 1§02 a thén 20 vears of age was principal of the Frvebure Academy at Fryeburg, He made an address to his pu. pils, and in it he said this, “Unhappy Furope—the judgment of God rests on thee. Thy suffering would déserve an angel's pify, if an angel's tears could wash away thy crfmes. Convulsions Shake and térrors alarm thee. Let us implore Heaven that thé widespread devastation may never réach our shores: but let us make up our minds t6 do our duty in any event that may happen to us’ That voung man was the great Daniél Webster. His pro- phetic mind saw_what was likely to come to pass. No gréat moral im- provement seems to come among the nations of the earth—exeept by the shedding of blood. We pride ourselves on our great American Constitution— vourig man, Aséie | those who are following his example |of valor. Thece voices of patriotism are coming out of the past telling us of the history of Norwich with the 26th reciment of eight hundred and twen- |tv_five volunteers and the other reg- iiments of the Civil war, which took their numbers and their strength from [this community. Let the #io; ipast be increased by the courage and valor of the present so that the flas of our country in triumph shall wave o'er the land of the free and home of the brave. The speaker urged the vounz men of the community to put aside the .| fear of death when the country’s in- tegrity and honor demanded the saeri- fice, and spoke most feelingly of the death of Lincoln and McKinley, who at the time of théir greatest glory when the world was bending bafore thém in homage passéd from earth in obedience to the call of the Creator.
