The Home Guard companies accept- ed the invitation of the management of the Auditorium theatre to witness the production of The Spy Monday cvening. There was a jarge turnout of- the Zuardsmen. They were supposed 10 have marched to the theatre, ac- companied by the new Italian band but owing to the big crowd that was out to witness the exhibition of The Human Fly the band was unable to get through the crowd and was forced to give it up. The guardsmen march- ed in twos on the sidewalk as it was impossible for them to get throusgh the crowd in the street. FORMER NORWICH BOY PLEASED WITH SERVICE Harold E, Bolande Enl sas Field Artillery. Harold = E. Bolande, formerly of Franklin and Norwich, who enlisted in the Kansas Field Artillery, Battery has written to his mother, Mrs. M. by Bolande of §3 Washington treet, describing his ‘activities since being called into service on Aug. 5. From that time up to Oct. 1 they were at Camp Hoel, which is just outside of Kansas City, then being transferred to Fort Sill." In his letter he speaks of the comfort and heip of the Y. M. C. A. building, and how the boys meet there for music, games, reading, etc. The cantonment is very large, tents extending in every direction as far as one can see. Aeroplanes are no novelty as they are flying about con- stantly, ‘the cantonment being near an aviation school. Mr. Bolande speaks highly of the service and is pleased to be serving his country. THREE THOUSAND SEE HUMAN FLY CLIMB. Jack Williams Scaled Wauregan House With Edse. Three' thousand men, women and children packed Main street from side: walk to sidewalk near the orner Mondiay. Hight whes Jack WAL liams, the Human Fly, appearing in this city under the auspices of The Norwich Morning Bulletin in a thrill- ing test'of muscle and nerve, scaled the outside of the Wauregan house. The crowd began to assemble shortly after 7 o'clock, and by 7.50 the was so_packed that trolleys and ic had a hard time to get through. All avallable windows in adjoining blocks were filled with spectators. The Human Fly made his appear- ance promptly at 7.30 and asked for volunteers “to 80 collscting, and m::‘-l men in unigrm tgw-rd bearing as passengers two small chil-| and a boy who had been picked up| from th Del,i,cfous steak "Cooking brings out flavor Youll like LUCKY TRIKE Exhibition and Sale RICH FURS and FUR COATS Two Days Only | .Today and Wednesday and offered their services. Upon the return of the ccllectors The Fly im- mediately donned his climbing apparel and was ready for the start. , Before starting on his climb Mr. made a short speech of a patriotic Hature which was loudly applauded. The Fly startéd his climb near the Main street entrance, to the hofel, going up the awning over one of the windows. He climbed steadily and surely, with, great coolness, every piece of trimming and cornice before trusting his weight on it. The ascent was made from win- dow to window and was quickly made until the top of the building was reached, where there is an overhang- ing cornice. ' Here it was that the Fly seemed balked. -He made several at- tempts to reach a hand hold on the cornice but it was a little too long a reach. After testing his holds several times he managed to get a grip’ with one hand and thep, while the multi- tude heid their breath in suspense, he slowly and surely raised the Sther and getting a firm grip swung himself back and forth several times and then with a mighty effort swung up and over the top to the roof The crowd who had breathlessly watched the daring climber gave a sigh of relief and then brok> out into loud applause. The climb tcok nearly one-half hour. The amount of the collection taken up was made public after The Fly had completed his climb. JXhe total amount tzFen up was $ which 30 per cent. of about 345, foes to the council of defense for the pur- pose of establishing an honor roll in the city upon which the names of all drafted méh and: those in the service will be placed. The Human Fly will this afternoon olimb -the - outside 'of the Wauregan hiouse annex. He will go up blindfold- ed, a feat which requlre- steady nerves and cool judgment.” The Fly will make the climb at 2.30 sharp. GIVING OUT Th- Struggle Dn.:ourlin Many a Cit- izen of Norwich.
