RED CROSS ACTIVITY. Urged by Rev. M. J. Ginet, of St. James' Parish. Pastor At the masses at St. James' church Sunday morning Rev. M. J. Ginet. M. S. urged his congregations to keep alive their inteerst in Red Cross work. He appealed especially to the women to interest themselves in the country-wide appeal of the Red Cross organization for women to knit sweat- ers, mufflers, wristers and other warm garments for the French soldiers, that they mav be adequately protected from the . cold during the coming winter campaign, and that the women who are illing to assist in this great chari- table work get in touch with the proper officials of the local Red Cross chapter and learn just how to go about the work that is to be done. St. James’ parish_has an active and efficient zroup of Red Cross workers who already have turned out a great many articles for soldiers’ ana hospital uses, To Round Up Non-Registrants. It has been made known ‘hat gov- ernment investigators, when the hurry and bustie of getting men, through the draft, for the new is completed, will take up the work of rounding up the evadors of their duties. There is a well founded suspicion that Danielson, like other towns here- abouts has yvoung men who did_not register June 5, has others who have not been truthful in statements that have been required to make and still others who have disappeared since the call for the men to go into service was sent out. An unpleasant ex- perience is in store for all these. An addition of brick is being built to the oiler house on the southerly end of the plant o the Connecticut Milis company. A pumping station, to be used in connection with the mill's fire fighting system, will be located within the building Fell From Tree—Broke Arm.

Where Berlln Got Its Gospel From time to time, American news- papers, have printed extracts from the works of ietzsche, the disciple from whom tle war lords of Berlin obtained their philosophy. Not until the other day, however, did we come upon a por- trait of that teacher. It is worth an- alyzing. It shows a man heavy of brow, with cliff-like cheek-bones. His chin pro- jects in the manner of a car fender. The nose is like a Roman's, ears like a4 dainty woman’s. Is is the eves which carry the Nietzschean acrimony. They are merciless, ruthless. They look as if the man were mad as biazes all the time. Many people have suspected that the one who would write “morality must be shot at” or “We deny God, we deny responsibility in God: thus alone do we save the world,” must have merely Yad a passion for shocking his neigh-- bors. But after seeing that portrait we know that Nietzsche believed it.

The following, sent out from Hart- ford, Saturday, is of special interest here: John Balaski and his wife, Mary, of South Prospect, Conn. and their 24-year-old son, Michael Balaski, are under arrest here for resisting the draft. Chief Thomas F. Egan of the state police and his officer, Robert T. Bridgeman, with a federal agent, Hen_ ry Lane, Jr., entered the Balaski farm house through a rear door and seized Mrs. Balaski from behind, as she stood at the front door brandishing a revolver and shouting she would kill the first officer who tried to get her son for the army. The son said he had failed to reg- ister June 5 because of his mother's threats against him if he joined an army against Austria-Hungary. He was born in Putnam, Conn. BALTIC. Panhandler Who Angers Housewife Gets Wallop With Big Stick—Heavy Traffic Sunday—Boy Scouts to Camp at Gardner Lake. A big husky knight of the road ap- peared in town early Saturday morn- ing and began soliciting food. -All went well until he approached a wo- man on Main street. This lady re- fused to come across with onions and cheese, as requested and the hobo passed some pretty insulting remarks. The enraged housewife seized a club which was in the hallway and the tramp started for the gate with the woman a close second. As he vaulted the fence on the Main street side a severe welt across his back gave him the impression that the housewives of Baltic believe in preparedness, and that they are versed in the art of self defense, Mrs. Miller Leaves for Home.
