At a meeting held'in the headqiar- ters of the Nationai lLeague. for Wo- man’s Servite; in the Thayer build- ing, it was decided to continue the organization of the Housewives' Army in its present form, as a branch of the League for Woman's Service, ra- ther than feorganize as the House- wives' League. In the absence of the permanent chairman, Mrs.*Harry Hig- gins, the meeting was. presided over Mrs. Edward -J. Graham. > Tiss Louise Howe read the treasur- er's report. The Housewives' Army in Norwich inumber 128 members and much work has been accomplished | during the summer. The work of the i Community Canning club was touched upen. A _programme of work mapped out by Mrs. Hayward, state ‘Chairman of the Housewives League. was present- ed and it was voted to take it up, meeting the third Wednesday in each month for that purpose. The course {inciudes talks on practical subjects and voluntary discussion of the same. A paper was read by Mrs. Channing M. Huntington on the subject of pur- chasers carrving home all possible bund¥ss. The annual amchat of money spent on delivery is appalling and at the present time the money so spent might. be diverted to much more necessary service. The call on cur young men into the.army is de- pleting the rdnks of workers and it is becoming rapidly more difficult to accommodate customers in this re- spect of delivery. If each woman would voluntarily offer ta release the store keepers from -this burden and would use her influence to that end it would be a great economic: gain. Mrs. Albert Chase spoke on the beriy Loan. She alluded to the ty- ing up of commerce and shipping re- sulting from” this' war ‘and "the con- signment effect on the farmer and the producer.. The money needed to carry on the war is to bs raised now by about one-third direct taxation and two-thirds by the Liberty loan. Those who are unable to shouider a sccond bond should seek the advice. of their bank as to selling their first hond to re-invest in the second. The. first one being non-taxable, it is readiiy sold, as to the person of large means it secures him exemption from taxes on that part of his property.

The Liberty Loan-committee have made arrangements.-to erect a 20-foot thermometer on the pole located at the Young block corner on Franklin square this week Friday. From then on the public of Norwich will be able to watch the progress of the mercury howing the’ daily amount of sub- scriptions to the Liberty Lgan cam- paign in Norwich as well as the num- ber of subscriptions received each day. The Norwich, New London Sign company have. given their services in the erection, painting and daily tab- ulating of the sign, the Chappell com- pany have donatéd the lumber and the Peck, McWilllams company the making of the large thermometer. This speaks well for the patriotism of the Norwich concerns. Evervone in Norwich is greatly interested in the local‘campaign. to raise the allotment of $1,250,000. A strenuous effort will be made to bust the thermometer, pushing the mercury completely over. the top. Another very kind offer to help along_the campaign comes again from the Norwich, New London Sign com- panv which have taken the balance of the Liberty loan posters and will place these ‘on their bill boards throughout this seefion.

At the rooms of the National League for Woman’'s Service the eighth box of knitted sets was packed and sent to the headquarters of the Navy league Wednesday. . Mrs. John D. Hall, chairman, stated that since the first week in June there have been 899 finished pieces returned to the rooms. In addition to the eight boxes sent to the Navy league, our own boys have been supplied since that became possible, and very apprecia- tive have they been, as is evidenced from the many letters received ex- pressing their gratitude. The women of Norwich have re- spofided nobly to this call for service and every day sees new ones enlisted in the ranks of the knitters.
