SECOND IN K. OF C. WHIST SERIES HELD Bags of Sugar Awarded as Prizes to © the Winners. Hartford—A citizen. of Connecticut has written-to the government officials announcing- that he has discovered -a way in which material can be con- served. -He writes that while in the smoking gar of a train the other day he noticed the floor covered with part- ly burned matches, and he conceived the idea that if mafches were made with a head on both ends most of the stick that is wasted would be saved. The idea. however, is not a new one, as matches of Mexican manufacture with heads on bota ends are used in this country at the presemt time. ——— e, PERFECT. WOMANHOOD Perfect womanhood depends on per- fect health. Beauty and a good dis- position both vanish before pain and suffering. A great menace to a wom- an’s happiness in life is the suffering that comes from some functional de- rangement which soon develops head- aches, backache, nervousness and “the blues.” ~For such suffering, women find help in that famous old root and herb remedy, Lydia ‘E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, which for three generations has been restoring health to women of America. The second of a series of whist and “45” for the benefit of the K. of C, War Fund, was held at the K. of C. rooms Wednesday evening with one of the largest crowds present in the his- tory of the organization. The affair was in charge of the lady friends of the council and they worked untiringly to make it the success that it was. There were 75 tables of whist play- ed and a large number of tables of “45.” The prizes for both games were unique as well as useful and appro- priate. The prizes consisted of bags of sugar. The whist prizes were awarded as follows: Ladies—first, 12 pounds of sugar; Miss Mary Brennan; second, 8 pounds of sugdr, Mrs. Wil- liam Wilson. Gentlemen—First, 12 8 pounds, William Richardson. The “45” prizes were won as follows: First, 12 pounds of sugar, M. J. Coo- ney: second, 8 pounds, P. Sullivan. The judges were James Purdon, Fred Friswell. A. J. Wholey and M. J.

Among the large number were many men in uni- form coming from the submarine base,! the state pier, Newport and Camp Devens. Others were present from New London, Westerly, Willimantic, Baltic and Hallville. Mayor Brown made a short address before the play began and compli- mented the K. of C. on their excellent work in the recent War Fund cam- pzign and said that the people who stay at home could not do enough for the boys who have gone out to fight for our country.
