In & country-wide contest along ef- fickenicy lines, Charles B. Hutchins of the White Rock Poultry farm, Bast Franklin street, has won a first prize of $50 offered by a Nebraska concern interested in the manufacture of ap- tus pertaining to the poultry in ustry.

Hugh McKee. who is employed at the Danielson inn, has perfected and procured additicnal patenfs on an au- tomobile bumper that not only a unique device but also a very effective dne for the purposes for which it is intended. In collision with any object an au- tomobile equipped with this device au- tomatically has its clutch thrown out ot spark cut off and its brakes set at cmergency tension. This automatic brake-setting device is bound to work in a collision whether a driver loses his merve or not. A 50-pound blow will set the brakes snap tight. Mr. McKee has had patents on the bumper for some time, but he has made improvements that have brousht it to a state of perfection. Mr. Mc- Kee has a car at the inn that is equipped with his patent, which is =tmilar in general appearance to the ordinary run of bumpers, which, how- aver, it far outclasses in special auto- matic braking features.

Linemen were busy Monday clear- ing up the heavy amount of trouble caused to - telepkone lines during the severe thunder storm that occurred be- tween 12 and 1 o'clock Sunday morn- irg. The damage to wires caused by ihe storm is as great as in the case during the height of the hot weather season. KILLINGLY TRUST COMPANY HAS PROSPEROUS SIX MONTHS.
