NO EPIDEMIC OF DIPHTHERIA IN CITY Only Two Cases Exist and One is at the Hospital The report that has been in circula- tion for the past few days that there is an epidemic of diphtheria in the city is false as was shown by the city, health officer, Dr. E. J. Brophy, Tues- day evening. Dr. Brophy states that at present there are only two cases of diphtheria in the city and these two cases arc far apart being in two different sections of the city.. One of the cases is at the Backys hospital and the other case is on Yantic stree During the past month_there have been only five cas- es of the disease in the city and two of these have been cured and the quarantine has been removed while the third case proved fatal owing to the fact that the parent of the child fajled to recognize the malady and did not summon medical aid until too late. ‘The treatment of diphtheria in se- vere cases is with antitoxin but this antitoxin must be administered before the disease has such a strong hold on the system of the patient that it is not a sure cure. The antitoxin is to de- stroy the diphtheria poison, but if the disease get such a hold on the patient that the system is overwhelmed with the poison antitoxin is not certain to cure. & It might be well to state that the an- titoxin used will be furnished free by the Health officer to the physician where the purchase of the same will inflict financial hardship on the pa- tient. Last Friday a case of diphtheria was reported to the Health Officer and he went to the house where the case was to make invstigation and found there 2 neighbor with her three-year-old child who had dropped in for a visit. | Upon further inguiry he found that there had been several other callers during /the day. The health Officer ordered the woman to leave the prem- ises, and placed the house under quar- antine. The father of the child re- fused to stay at home. saying that he had _to work and would not obey the quarantine Jaw. The Health Officer in view of the visit of the neighbors and the refysal of the parent to obey instructions the best thing to be done for he protection of the public health was to order the child to the Isolated ward in the hospital. The ambulance was summoned and upod its arrival the fateher of the child refused to allow the doctors: to remove the child. The Health Officer was notified and he in turn notified the police and Officers Casey and _Smith went to the place and the child was taken to the hospital. This act may have seemed hard-hearted to the large i crowd that gathered to watch the pro- ceding but it must be understood that it was only a measure for the protec- tion of the public. The father of the child was more or less indignant over the fact because another child .in the city was allowed to remain in his home. This is ex- plained by the fact that they were obeying the Jaw of quarantine to the letter and were carrying out his in- structions. . It must be clearly under- stood that for public safety in all con- tagions diseases quarantine must be followed to the letter or the patient taken to the hospital and the parent prosecuted. NEW DRAFT RULES HIT ENLISTMENTS. Mere Fact of Registration to Prevent Veluntary Entry Later. Although it is nmot generally under- stood, men’ who registered last June for the selective draft with a few ex- ceptions will be forbidden voluntary enlistment in the army, navy or marine corps after Dec. 15, the date when the new draft regulations go into effect. Under the present regulations a regis- tered man may veluntarily enlist until his local board calls him for physical examination, but under the new regu- lations the bare fact that he is regis- tered will preelude voluntary enlist- ment. ? In view of the regulations, recruit- ing in all branches of the military service is expected to increase during the three weeks until Dec. 15, and military men and government officials are reminding all rezistered men who still wish to velunteer that they should lose no time. Such branches of the service as are in most need of men wiil make a epecial effort to secure volun- teers during the short time that this is possible.

James Dunn Tells of Cowardly Acts of Huns on Battle Line —Graphic Description-of Allied Victory at Vimy Ridge 2 The Germans are using the women and children for means of protection in this war, said Sergeant James C. Dunn, of the Royal Canadian Regi- meuts in graphic description of the battle fronts of Europe, given at the Greeneville Congregational church on Tuesday evening. Sergeant Dunn, who was a former attendant of the Greeneville church, has been “over there” and has also been “over the top” in one of the flercest bat- tles of tWe war, that of Vimy Ridge. 1t was in this battle that Sergeant Dunn was wounded and -picked up dead. but he is now very much alive and anxious to get back at the Hun: He tells of some of the atrocities of the Germans and describes them as fiends unfit to be calied human beings. In his talk he said that the question often arose, why don’t the _allied armies make greater zains? His an- swer to this is that the Germans are using women and children for pro- tectfon, that is, bringing the women and ohildren up into the first lines ‘where it is impossible for anyone with heart in them at all to fire on Sergeant Dunn teils of the time when he went over the top at Vimy Ridge. He got across to the German lines and there he found wo- men and little children running around some of them in a_ plight too pitiful for>words, some of them with no hands, others with no togues. This is a_sample of the Germar Kulture. Preceeding Sergearnt Dunn's talk, Mrs, L. O. Potter sang the Star Spangled Banner with Miss Letitia Kramer as aecorapanist. Rev. C. H Ricketts introduced Sergeant Dunn to the large audience, many of whom knew him personally. Sergeant Dunn spoke as follows: With Canadian Regiment. I enlisted in the Royal Canadian Reziment in Toronto about two years ago and there in Toronto I received some military traininz. Hundreds of Americans were, coming across the borders of Canada to enlist and some of the Canadians were coming into this country to escape the onlistment. I stand before vou as a distranchised American. but T am with America heart and soul. For some time. we stayed in Toronto, then one ddy wc received word that we were going across. Then came the day of em- barking. Over 9,000 troops went aboard the Olvmpia®and we set sail. The vovage was uneveniful until we reached the English waters, then one day as T was standing on the deck two shots from our guns were fired. T corld not see what thev were shoot- inw but the rumor was that we were liable to be torpedoed.” “We're here first.” was the spirit >f the men on boarad ship. ‘We landed at Liverpool and from there we traveled six or eight in a comrartment on a train to a camp where we were trained in ' trench work. We certainly Aid zet some trench work. It was in the mud, mud such as I have never seen in this country. It stuck like glue. Off For France. R From this camp we were sent to South Hamwton and from there ém- harked for France. We_arrived on French s=oil at 4 a. m. We did 'not know where we were going, but, were told that we were to hike about 37 miles. We carvied packs on our backs weighing from 95 to 100 pounds and it was a question whether we were army mules or troops. We felt like the mules. e marched through the territorv where the battla of the Marne took nlace and evervthing was desolate. villages were ruined, there was ,not_two bricks Iying one on the other. Tt Ty's on the march that we mot our first taste of war rations, we had not tea, no coffee and mo susar, Py thpse marches every day through a_war stricken land. sleeping in ruin- cd huildings, with the rats crawling ahout, we arrived at Mt St. Eloise where we were told to wait for a dav. They told us to find-a dry spot; we found it in a swamp. There was plen- 1y of water and we slept in it and in the morning we had to break thy ice from ourselves in order to move. Here it was we =ot our first taste of the heavies. Heavies are the biz guns the Huns use in shelliny out the al- lies. 'When one shot from the guns, the shot weighing 960 ponnds, ezplod- es, it will rip the bark off a tree at a distance of 75 feet. Imagine what it will do to a human being. Men are driven- insane by the shell shock. Some are fortunate and recover amd others don’t. Shelled By Aeroplanes. * From Mt. St. Eloise we went to_an- other place and made camp and here we were shelled out by aeroplanes. We were right behind the front line now. I was assigned to the squad that does the repair work in the front line ‘trenches and among the barbed wire. This squad is known as the Suicide Squad. We haye a slim chance of coming through n. When we were told to go out we went; there was no volunteering, and no hanging back. On the Saturday night before East- er we were given two ddys’_rations. ‘We knew what this meant. We were going into action The rations were two pounds of bully beef and one pound of~hard tack and a canteen of water. If you lost your canteen you had to wait until a comirade was *done for before tting another. ‘This geems terrible, but it is war. On Easter Sunday we started. Our ob- jective was to take Ecole Commune, Which was the“school of the com- murity end/a point of ventage. Wi met up with two thousand Germ: and put them to rout with gas.

In our advance I saw some Of the most.- horrible sights I ever wish to raged me say right here that the Germans are no geod; they are a brutal and treacherous peopie. I hate them. You have-right in this country American- ized Germans who are doing, all in their power to defeat tiis country. We were attacked by gas, but we put on our masks which we had an® came through clean. Then we waited as we had orders not to advance until we heard the put-put-put of the ma= chine guns. While waiting there huge shells passed over our theads forming a . ecreeping barrage fire. Then we were shelled-and we got the order to dig i and. believe me, we dus. The attack was timed to the minute.

One saw that I lived and I was taken to the rear where ! lay in a stupor for 20 days. I received the best of care and later was removed to a London hospi tal. It was here that I was on Amer- ican day and I never saw so many American flags as on that day. The most gloricus sight of all was the American flag_and the Tnion Jack floating over St. Paul’s cathedral. QUARTERLY REPORT OF THE COUNTY AGENT.

The Aviator Honored. In his talk Sergeant Dunn refer- red to the wor of the aeroplanes in war and the submarine. He told of the respect the fighting man has for the aviator and how he is honored. ‘The aviator is the eye of the my. He ‘told of several of the air battles that he had witnessed. He also spoke of meeting a Ger- man and on asking where the Ger- man came from found that he came from Detroit. The exploding of 1,- 600,000 pounds of high explosives and sending nearly 64,000 Germans to de- struction _ was described by Mr. Dunn. Sergeant Dunn’s talk was a very graphic deseription of the war as it is ang Mr. Dunn spoke right {rom the shoulder, telling facts as they were. _After the talk 2n informal recep- tion was given bim and many of his friends had a chance to congratulate him on his safe return. PATRIOTIC CELEBRATION PLANS ARE COMPLETE. White Cro: Council Expects Large Attendance at Gathering. Arrangements for the patriotic meet- ing to be held under the auspices of White Cross council. No. 13, K. of C., this evening have been perfected and a most interesting program has been prepared. Grand Knight John H. Carney will preside and among those who will ad- dress the meeting are His Honor Mayor Allyn k. Brown and Rev. W. A. Keefe of Plainfield.

CHAIN LETTERS AND RED CROSS. No Authorization Given for- Soliciting Funds in This Way. The growing misuse of the name of the Red Cross in chain letters has prompted Rey. Joseph H. Selden, chair- man of the Norwich chapter, to issue a statement setting forth the attitude of the Red Cross toward a chain letter scheme. “The national headquarters of the Red Cross.” the ctatement reads, “hps called thé attention of chapters to the fact that chain letters sent out in the name of the Red Cross are now in cir- culation. Many copies have been for- warded to national headquarters. “The American Red Cross reiterates that no chain letter project has its ap- proval. - While some of these schemes may have been started in good faith, mention of the Red Cross is not war- ranted. The Red Cross members and the public in general are warned that there is no assurance that donations in response to any chain letters will reach the Red Cross treasury, and are urged to pay no attention to such ap- peals, whose sinGerity is always open to_doubt. “Aid to the American Red Cross should always be furnished through recognized channels, if the donor wish- es to be assured that his gift is to reach the object intended.” POSTOFFICE HOURS FOR THANKSGIVING.

Boys’ and Girls’ Club Work. The past two summers one of the important farm bureau projects has been the bovs' and girls’ club work, but owing to the rush of emergency work the past summer but very little was done along these lines. ~Much more might have been done in Nor- wich and New London along food conservation lines had M Camp- bell had more time to devote to these two_cities. Since the emergency food bill pass- ed by the last congress, funds for both these lines of work the county home economics commit tee recommended that the executive committee take advantiage of this op- portunity and accordingly Miss Ber- tha Hallock has been secured for this work and will be known as county club leader. Miss Hallock took up her duties about the middle of Octo- er. Arranging Corn Show. Considerable time has been .spent in making arrangements for the an- nual county corn fair.
