Our books are carefully selected, and the library re- ceives much eommendation, especially “rom etrangers, on our up-to-date and useful collection. Few repairs have been needed; trou- ble with the electric wires resuited in the rewliring of the delivery room and enclosing the Avires in steel casings. Lists have been printed and circulat- ed on mechanical books—of which we have some of the best—music, garden- ing, salesmanship, etc. Our war bocks are eagerly read. In the foreign languages Yiddish and Polfsh have had the largest circulation. Many Yiddish volumes were given to us several years ago by a Jewish club These have been read over and ovel again until few are left. We pur- chased only a few foreign books last year, principally Italian, but we hope to add to them later. We are glad to receive recommendations of new books from our readers. Pamphlets are sent to us from London on the war which are most interesting. _ Much time Is devoted to referonce Work for schools, clubs and socleties. We aim to keep the work of the library up to that of former years, to say the least. Our reading "room, although one could hardly call it artistic, is never- theless a fair sized, comfortable and well lighted room and usually well filled with readers. It is open on Sun daya trom 3 to ¢ . m. with the Sun- day papers on fil}, and we have many visitors. An appeal was made through the dally papers for games and puzzles for the sailor boys. which was quickly responded to. These were sent in a box_of books and magazines to the U. 8. S. Minnesota, on_which one of our own Norwieh boys was located. A second box also has been setn to the boys' reformatory, Cheshire. We cordially thank the city mews- papers for their many favore. NORWICH HOME GUARD WILL TAKE PART In Parade of Third Regiment at 'Plant Field This Month.

Home Guarders from Pawcatuck, Mys- tic, Stonington, Norwich, Putnam, Danielson. Colchesteh, Montville and Lyme will participate in the event. Inasmuch as this is a voluntary pa- rade, unauthorized by. the state, al- though it is to be reviewed by Gov-. ernor Holcomb and the military emer- gency board, the necessary expenses attendant to such a gathering of forces will have to be defrayed by public contribution from those inter- ested in Home Guard affatrs and from the general public.

Harry McNell, who left the Grand View Saniterium where he is a patient Monday noon, returned to the institu- tion of his_own accord Wednesday morning. He was in a famished con- dition and appeared to be glad to get back. Dr. Donahue of the sanitorium had searched all the _surrounding country for the man on Tuesday but fafled to locate him.

Mrs. Flnnegan told the court that the child was frightfully abused and that she has often come into her house showing marks of having been struck about the face. Tobin STATE-WIDE APPEAL ISSUED TO MILLERS. Are Asked to Register Their Names With Food Supply Committee. The committee of, food supply of the state council of defense is sending out from their headquarters at 36 Pearl street, Hartford, a state-wide appeai calling upon the millers of the state equipped for grinding wheat and rye Into flour to register thelr names with the committee, together with a state- ment of the work they are equipped to do. The need for complete informa- tion in regard to millers is set fortt in the following letter sent out by J. P. Chamberlain of the sub-committee on wheat and rye: Robert Scoviile, Connecticut repre- sentative of the United States food administration, has asked that . the people abstain from cating white bread on two Gays each- week. The committee of food supply has asked the farmers of the state to plant twice s much rye this year as lost. to fill the quota of grain allotted to, Connec- ticut by the U. S. department of agri- culture, and if ceems likely that the farmers will answer the call. If tha housewives of the state respond to Mr. Scoville’s appeal there will be a_mar- ket at hoie for the rye which the farmers plant, # there are millers to grind the flour. This is what the committee of food supply is now trying to find out, and it request sall millers i the staee to register at its office, Pearl street, Hartford. It has ready had requests for the. addresses of mills, and anticipates many more. ‘With the support of the millers, the committee belicves that a campaign to ipcrease the use of local flour made from home grown rye and wheat woull do good to millers, farmers and con- sumers, and especially the use of the whole grain flcur containing all the food value of the grain. PROGRESSIVE MISSIONA idower and has four children. all of whom are giris. The oldest daughter is marrfed, one nine years old lives with an aunt in Nor- wich, and Catherine, who is 16, and is employed at the Brainerd & Arm- strong plant and does not live at home. She told the court that she was compelled to leave as her father treat- ©d her in the game manner as he is now following toward her younger sister. > Tobin contends that he has never ill-treated his children. He claims that he is paying for the board of his cbild In Norwich and the reason that} he makes Norie arise so early in the morning is because she is “s0 much more handy” about cooking than he. Regarding Catherine leaving home on account of his treatment of her, he said that she wanted to do things of which he did not approve, and when he remonstrated with her she became officious and left. Judge Coit told Tobin that if there was a “whipping post” in Connecticut he surely would see that it was used. As’a substitute, however, he fined him $50 and eommitted him for six months, but the execution of the sentence was suspended for six months and the man placed in the custody of Proba- tion Officer Mansfield.

GALLAUDET WAR PLANE Expected That New Craft Will Trial Flight This Week. The first of the big war planes un- der construction by the Gallaudet Air- craft Corporation at the Warwick piant on Chepiwancxet Island is re- ceiving its finishing touches today and will be eiven its trial spin for adjust- ments Thursday or Friday, says the Providence Evening Bullefin. The new craft is unlike anything that has been turned out heretofore in this country and great achievements are expected from this class of ma- chine. "It is of the “pusher” type, and is a sca plane with a 69-foot spread and 39 feet long. It is a monster fly- er, but its cigar-shaped body ives it 2 ‘much smaller appearance than it really is. - The machine has two 165 horse- power Hall Scott engines with the Gallaudet special drive. It is this fea- ture of the machine that gives it its great value for war purposes. No de- tails as to its construction are di- vulged, under the censorship of the war department. The plant must make a speed of 8§ miles per hour to come up to the re- quirements and her makers are con- fident that it will handily exceed this rate. It has a regular pontoon with |vears ago, the sen of the late James 16 watertight compartments ahd can|and Sarah Mamoney.

For the six months ending Juna, 1917, the New York, New Haven and Hartford Ratlroad company showed 1 marked improvement in the average revenue tons per loaded car mile as compared with previous correspond- ing periods. The average car lozding for the first aix months of this year was 1823 tons This compares wob | 16.61 tons in the espanding pariod last year. and 15.55 tons in 1916 There has Leen a steady improve- ment in car loading reported hy the New Haven for the past three yearw. During the 12 months of 1915 the av erage car loading amounted to 1; tons. In 1916 this was increaved to We advertise exwetly as it 1s The Big 3 For Fall 1.

In the first six months of 1917 the average car loading of 18 tons was an increase over the corre- sponding period of 1916 of 1.62 tons, and over 1915 by 2.68 tons. The New Haven is contiwually atriv- ing to show still further improvement in the loading of its freight cars. The company is obtaining the active sup- port, and assistance of ehippers ard consignees, to whom is due much of the credit for the improvement aiready recorded. 3 Som® idea of what can still be ac- complished may be had from the fact that if the average car loading could be further incrensed by only one ton— 20,000 pounds—it would mean a saving of 121.996 cars a year, or 10,166 cars a month. With the government making un- precedented demands on the railroads in order to facilitate the prosecution of the war, the New Hawen s re- doubling its efforts to attain this in- creased loading. The company is con- tinuing to impress upon the shipping public that it s its patriotic duty to load cars to their full cubic or weight capacity in order that freight may be handled more expeditiously and efll- ciently, and thereby help to malke the raflroads more/efficient servants of the governmen SPIRITUAL ACA RESUME SERVICES SUNDAY.
