Dghiei the first pastor of St. Mary’s , Greeneville, and as a student spent his vacations in Norwich. the Rhode lsland company property, the abolition of jitneys' and a charge of one cent each for transfers, in ad- dition to other changes in operation methods, says the Providence Evening Bulletin, are among the possible solu- tions of the railway situation here, ac- cording to the preliminary report of engineering experts employed by the special leglslative Investigating com- mission. While the report does not specifically state that a six-cent fare is one of the primary solutions, experts who have studied the situation declpre that such is the case, and feel that an increase in rate of that amount is necessary in order to allow the Rhode Island com- pany to meet ils expenses and operate successfully. The investigation “of the compeny, Leing made at the request of the com- pany itself, on the plea that some- thing must be done to prevent it from going into bankruptcy, has been in progress for several months, and the commission, made up of Zenas W. Bliss (chairman), William C. Bliss gnd George H.

LIBERTY LOAN MERCURY GOING UP SLOWLY. Over $900,000 Must Be Subsoribed in Norwich Yet. The mercury in the Liberty loan thermometer is slowly, very slowl creeping toward the bursting point, which is $1,250,000, but if it doesn't g0 up faster than it has in previous days the goal will never be reached. Up to the close of Havking hours on Wednes- day the total amount subscribed to the Liberty loan was $346,150, with 655 subscribers. With only about seven more days left in which to raise the desired amount, the average amount to be raised per day Is well over $100,000. 1f Norwich fails to secure her allot- ment of the loan it will be the first time since the war started that she has failed to meet any request of the government. Let us keep our city up to the standard and bust the top off that old thermometer on the square by subscribing for $903,850 worth of the bonds which are to win this world- war for democracy. Included in the parade which is to be held here on Liberty day (Wednes- day, Oct. 24) will be all the troops of the 'local Boy Scouts. It is expected that at least 100 scouts will march.

Millions of men and women today know that it is needless to have dys- pepsia. A little Diapepsin occasionally keeps the stomach sweetened, and they cat their favorite foods without fear. If your stomach doesn’t take care of _ vour liberal limit without rebeliion; if your food is a damage instead of a help, remember the quickest, surest pepsin which costs only fifty c a large case at drug stores. It's truly wonderful—it stops food souring and sets things straight, so gently and e: ily, that it is really astonishing. Your.. ctomach will digest your meals if you keep acids neutralized.
