The regular Thursday evening prayer service of the Greeneville Con- gregational church has been trans- ferred to Saturday evening. - According to careful estimates it has been proven that the coal supply is saved one-half a ton each week. In former times the church was heated for Thursday and then allowed to cool down until Sat-’ urday, but the present arrangements are such that heat need be gotten up but once a week. The Sunday evening services are also being omitted. The morning service and Sunday school are made more in- teresting to those attending. Parochial School to Open Jan. 7. Rev. J. H. Fitzmaurice announced Friday that St. Mary's school would be opened Monday, Jan. 7. Several other schools are to remain closed for another week, but if conditions per- mit, he stated. St. Mary's school will be opened on the date mentioned. The school has sufficient coal on hand to continue sessions for a short time.

Many Women Are Kmttmn for Thom- selves or Fnendu Not in Sei Women who_ knit woolen sweaters for themselves and ‘their : civifian friends are robbing.the soldiers and sailors of wool ‘Which they need in the. trenches and on_the wind-swept seas, according to. an’ announcement . made by the commitfee ‘on woman's.activi- ties of the Connecticut state council of defense. Af “the. request ‘of.the American.

The letter explains-that many wom- en, after knitting an article. or two for the Red Cross'or a soldier relative, knit sweaters, mufflers and similar ar- ticles for themselves or- for friends other than soldiers:-and sailors. Each knitter who does -this is helping to ex- haust the existing supply of wool and the amount ‘available for - military clothing. Women ‘who wish to- knit sweaters and similar ~garments for themselves are fold in the. letter that they can knit them. of silk, cotton, or some other wool substitute without de- priving the soldiers. The suggestions in regard to conserving 'the wool sup- ply apply also to other knitted gar- ments made of wool, and the public is urged to substitute cotton, silk, cordu- roy or some other material for wool as far as possible.

Thursday, Jan. 3 .. .Zero degrees It will not be surprising to poultry- men to learn that a iargs number of birds had their combs and wattles frozen and of course, the Leghorns and other light breeds fared worse. Of the Rocks, Reds, Wyandottes and -1 Orpingtons, 17 per cent. of the birds had their combs frozen and 13 per cent. had their wattles frozen, where- as in the light breeds, 76 per cent. of the hens froze their combs and 16 per cent. froze both combs and wattles. In other words, of the 1,000 hens in the contest, nearly 450 of “them have {rozen combs and nearly one-third of this number have both frozen combs and ‘rozen wattles. Obviously the management of the contest does not dare to- predict what will happen to{ the egg yield during the next week or two. Meanwhile every bird with a frozen comb has been treated with a mixture composed of 5 parts of vase- line, 2 parts of glycerme, and 1 part of turpentine. For the fifth consecutive week, the pen of Barred Rocks from West Hamp- ton Beach, L. I, was in first place with a yield of 44 eggs, Richard Al- len’s Rhode - Island--Reds from Pitts- fleld; Mass;, were second for the week with a production of 40 eggs. Mrs. 'R. W.
