Eaton of 12th street kas just received a letter from her son, John W., who is on board the U. S. Delaware, now in foreign waters. Mr. Eaton has not been heard from before since Thanksgjving when he #aid they were getting ready ‘to-sail somewhere. In the letter just receiv- ed Mr. Eaton tells of slecping out in the open on deck and having a good time. Christmas over there was enlivened with packages from Ame: ing various tokens of remembrances that were especially appreciated. Over there they get mail once a-month, and when it comes there is « jolly time. The Red Cross in America remember- ed all who were across at Christmas {time. Mr, Eaton's letter was so care- fully written, that although covering six closely written pages, but one cen- sure appeared. On Dec. 18, a latter was received by Mrs, Baton from the Reserve headquarters at Newport, stating that John W. Eaton ‘did not report for service upon notification after enlistment and courted the pos- sible penalty by courtmartial. The letter was turned over to a member of the local committee of the state council of defense. A statement of facts was forwarded to the com- mander asking to have the error cor- rected and after a second request was sent Mrs. Eaton received Saturday the following “Madam: This office wishes to inform you that a proper record of your son’s enlistment in the regular navy has been located, the bureau of navigation has ordered that he stay in the reg- ular navy and his discharge from the reserve force has therefore been is- sued. The above with the letter from her son is very gratifying to Mrs. Ea- ton.and clears up any rumor that John W. Faton was a deserter. Some mis- take had been made in the records giving rise to the suspicion, but said mistake has now been corrested and the matter cleared up. ANNUAL PARISH MEETING OF ST.

W. J, MULLIGAN. General Beckley More Than Please General T, Beckley when seen by a Bulletin representative afier the re- sult had been announced was in a particularly, pleasant frame of mind. “To say that I am pleased with the results would be putting it mildly, sald General Beckley. “No comman: der of an army ever had more loyal soldiers than I have had in this cam- paign. Every captain and every pri- vate performed the duty assigned to him with a fidelity that could not help but bring succes And there were many not of the army who en- listed for this campaign, both in Nor- wich and in the ~outlying districts whose services were most helpful. Without their assistance it would not have heen the great success that it is. But,” said General Beckley, “the thing that impressed me most in this campaign was the splendid spirit of cooperation that we found, amongst the people in the district that was cenvassed. Everywhere our solicitors were received with a cordiality that Was most encouraging, an indication of the great interest that the Ameri- can people are taking in this war and work incident to it. Altogether it has been a great campaign, well conducted, splendidly supported and most satis- factiory in its results. 1 am proud of our organization and the great work it is doing in this world conflict, but I am prouder still of the splendid sup- port that we have had from every source in this campaign, the results of which mean 50 much for the phy- sical comfort and moral welfare of our American soldier boys, both at home and in foreign lands. Contributions From Organizations Amongst the organizations whose contributions were received on the last day of the campaign were St. Anne’s Attachment, Tierney Cadets $35, and Second Division, A. 0. H. $25. During the exercises last evening Chairman Beckley announced that the first contribution received in the cam- paign was a generous contribution, Which came entirely unsolicitad, when he learneq that the drive was to take place, from James L. Case, president of the Y. M. C. A.. and last night Mr. Case duplicated his first contribution when he heard of the great success that had been attained. Capt. John P. Lyston was awarded Capt. JOHN P. LYSTON, Leader Division B. a box of cigars, for his team, for bringing in the largest amount of any team on the last day of the drive. Fitchville Total $773.15. ¢ The Fitchville team of Division B of the K. of C. War Fund campaign held its final meeting Monday afternoon port. The members were M. F. Fields, ley, Michael Sweeney, Louis P. Brand, John gveeney and Charles Rogers. The members spoke of their friendly reception at the various homes. After all reports had been made and the fin- the local team went far beyond expec- tations, being successful in collecting $273.15, added to the generous sub- scription of $500 from Mr. George S. Palmer, making a total of $773.15 for the Fitchville team. As this is the third canvass in Fitch- ville within the past three months, following the Y. M. C. A. securing $250, the Red Cross with a total of 201, the local K. of C. members are greatly pleased with their success, LARGE SALE OF WAR SAVINGS STAMPS Public Beginning to Realize Their Duty to the Government. The sales of war savings certificates and thrift stamps by the letter carri- ers, stations and in the schools on Monday indicates that the public is realize their duty to the government by lending to it a portion of their earnings, said Postmaster J. P. Mur- phy Monday eVening. There are many who do not realize what these smail sums amount to and the necessity of the loan of these sums to win the war, he continued. One 25 cent thrift card purchased ‘weekly for 52 weeks, would mean $13. These exchanged for three war savings certificates will net $15 in 1928. This plan followed by the thir- ty thousand people in Norwich would be the loaning to Uncle Sam of three hundred and ninety thousand dollars, and no one would say at the end of 1918 they had felt inconvenienced for by doing so. Make a start and pur- chase for the three weeks of this ‘month just closed, if you have not al- ready done so. FINED $200 FOR SELLING WITHOUT LICENSE Carlo Esposito Takes Appeal ' and Furnishes $300 Bond. Carlo Bsposito proprietor of the restaurant at 15 Atlantic street, New London, was fined $200 by Judge Coit in the New London police court Mon- morning, when he was found guilty of selling liquor without a license.

Annual Meeting of Stockholders and Directors—Concern Paid Six Per Cent. Dividend During Past Year. On Monday morning the annual meeting of the Lester & Wasley com- pany was held at the Thames Na- tional bank owing to the factory being closed down in compliance with the order of the fuel administrator. The reports of the officers showed the com- pany had had a successful yedr. A dividend of six per cent. was declar- ed last month. Directors for the ensuing year were chosen by the stockholders as follows: For three years, Frederick W. Lester, and ‘Percival W. Chapman; for two years, Howard L. Stanton and George W. Armstrong; for one year, Harry V. Cardwell, Charles I. Smith was elected auditor. At a subsequent meeting of the di- rectors_officers were chosen as fol- lows: President, Frederick W. Lester; Darken . Her Hair. Grandmother kept her hair beauti- fully darkened, glossy and attractive with a brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur. ‘Whenever her hair took on that dull, faded or streaked appearance, this simple mixture was applled with wonderful effect. By asking at any drug store for “Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound,”™ you will get a large bottle of this old-time recipe, improved by the addition of other in- gredients, all ready to use, at very little cost. This simple mixture can be depended upon to restore natural color and beauty to the hair. A well-known downtown drugsist says everybody uses Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound now because it darkens so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been ap- pliedsit's so easy to use, too. You simply dampen a comb or soft brush and draw it through your hair, tak- ing one strand at a time. By morn- ing the gray hair disappears; afta another application or two, it is re- stored to its natural color and looks glossy, soft and beautiful. This preparation is a delightful toilet re- quisite. It is not intended for the cure, mitigation or prevention of dis- ease. —_— TO RELIEVE CATARRHAL DEAFNESS AND HEAD NOISES ——ESS— If you have catarrhal deafness or head noises go to your druggist and get 1 ounce of ~Parmint (double strength), and add to it % pint of hot water and 4 ounces of granulated su- Take 1 tablespoontul four times a day.
