NORWICH MAN ADDRESSED SOLDIERS AT NIANTIC. James L, Case Compliments the Brave Young Men Who Have Answered the Call. - (Speclal to The Bulletin.) Niantie, Aus. 21.—Notwithstanding the fact that about 400 soldiers left Niantic last Friday, leaving about 1,- €00 troops, the large patronage of the Y. M. C. A. headquarters continues, and the appreciation on the part of the soldlers is seen and heard on every side. While the “¥" is used all through the day by groups of soldiers who are off duty, the big time is in the ev- ening when a full house is the rule. Several evenings each week entertain- ments are arranged by Secretary Hill, who is supervising the work at Niantlc and on these occasions the assoclation indeed a very lively social centér. The attraction last Saturday ev- eéning was an illustrated address on the Civii War, with Abraham Lincoln ihe prominent character, the last two pictures showing his assassination and death; there was a hush when these were shown and the speaker In an earnest way emphasized the greatne:y of the character of the emancipator of the colored race, and the price he paid to accomplish the desired resvlts On Sunday evening the 19th, a ser- vice of unusual interest w. held James I. Case, president of the Nor- soldiers present listened with marked attention to every word Mr. Case spoke of the awfulness of the waf, of the millions in prison camps and mil- lons more wounded and yet other millions who have gone to the great beyond: he complimented the hrave yvoung men of America who had answered their country’s call and | whom he believed would measure fully up to the call to sacrifice. Mr. Case nrged the men to have before them a high and holy purpose and to make 5ood. not only ag soldiers of their country, but as men. He admonish- ed them to play the game fair and to never stoop to anything beneath true manhood: he held nup before the men the great singer. Harrv Lauder, who, when his only son was killed in battle in France was well nigh broken hea ed d told a group of frienda that there were three wavs open for him drink, remorse and God and he delib- crately chose the latter and while his hopes for his noble son were shat- deavor to continue to make the world brighter Xr. Case closed his address by sug- gesting to the soldiers to value the g and to remember the saving tha: ‘He who would have friends must show him- self friendly.” and after all the best friend any man can have is Jesus Christ, who is a friend to everv man and to follow him should be the am- bition of every soldier who would measure up to the highest and best. Great applause followed the address. The musical part of the service was unusually_fine and included the fol- lowing: Cornet solos, by Miss Marion Tord Bushnell. of Brooklyn, N. Y. Hartford, accompanist. Secr Hill offered praver and had charge of the service. The closing number of the pr gramme was the singing _of two verses of ‘“Where is M Bov Tonlght,” the soldiers singing the chorus heartily. Next Sunday evening the double quartette of the rwich Bass Clef will sing at the “Y” headquarters. Several new _graphaphone records have been purchased from special funds sent to Secretarvy Hill from Norwich friends for the benefit of the soldiers in Niantic camp. FIELD MEETING AT EAST GREAT PLAIN Exceptionally Strong Programme Will Be of Interest to Dairymen. County Agent Whitman of the New London County Farm Bureau has com- pleted arrangements for the Field meeting which Is to be held tomorrow at the Uncas farm of N. E. Whiting at FEast Great Plain The exception- ally strong programme will he of in- terest tosthe dairymen of this vicinity and to all farmers who are interested in growing more feeds for home con- sumption and reducing farm expenses by more economical purchasing of concentrated rations. At 10 a. m. Thursday, Karl B. Mus- ser. Extension Dairvman of Storrs, wliil =ive an informal talk pointin close relationship between dairy breeds and type. Feeding for production and the necessity of adequate records, us- fng Mr. Whiting’s Dalry herd and records as an example. Following this a trip of Inspection will be made over the farm taking in the following points of interest: Corn and sov bean for silage, clover and al- falfa for hav and general field crops. This_trip will be made under the su- pervision of Prof. W. L. Slate, Jr., of the Connecticut Agricultural eollege, who will explain points of interest and value of crop and soil management, particularly covering home grown war | rations for dairymen. After an opportunity to enjor a basket lunch which all should bring and coffes which Mr. Whiting has kindly volunteered to provide, Prof. Guy C. Smith of C. A. C. will review the grain market and explain oppor- tunities whereby dairymen may affect a considerable saving by purchasing grain in carload lots. Manv success- ful co-operative grain purchasing as- sociations are doing business in Con- necticut, and there is no reason why dairymen of New T.ondon county should not receive the benefit of such an association. Mr. Whiting's farm 1s situated about one mile west of the Norwich Fair grounds in East Great Plain. HOLMES-CADY REUNION.
