Case, read a tele- gram from the state war work head- quarters at Hartford which stated that several of the cities had in- creased their allptment because of the recent results in the war zone: which indicates the lenstHening of the war, and it was urged that the Nor- wich district increase its quota. Mr. Case urged the workers to use every possible effort to secure larger sub scriptions, as the amount desired can- not be secured unless there are many more pledges from twenty-fiva to_one hundred dollars, and there should be several even larger than this: this work of serving the soldiers is so mammoth, that it demands more than an ordinary sacrifice in order to meet the requirements, and it is therefore incumbent upon all the people to be as liberal as possible.
