The by part of them., He was sympathetic| |and considerate, yet forceful in h personality, Wherever he associated | with men he made them feel that he was a.true minister of Jesus Ch 3 His quality of religion helped the whole Christian brotherhood. In his preaching he made himself clear. Peo- ple knew what he said and understood what he meant, and this madc him a delightful preacher. He liked- to.preach and for that reason it was easy for him in his advanced vears to do so. \His sense of humor'was a constant de- light to his hearers. An Optimist Through Study. As a student of human affalrs he was superior to many of his brother ministers. He made himself know history. He lived it all over in his soul; he saw the trend of things; he felt the struggle of she good with the had, and was sure that the good would triumph. His knowledge of his- tory made him anoptimist. He' de- tected the push of God in human af- fairs. He had seen so much humanity that his eyes were keen to see its manifold working behind the -pages of history. Even for a country like Turkey, which to most of us seems beyond re- demption, he predicted a' future that Christ. While he recognized the in- humanity -of the ignorant Turk, he be- lieved that the gospel could make him as gentle and kind as any Christian. He had abundant faith in the power of the gospel to transform lives. Had An Open Mind. Mr. Barrows had an open mind., He kept close to the results of the bew: {and most searching investigations of truth. These he tested in his own honest thinking with light coming from every .quarter. He made them his and gave voice in no uncertain sound. He was a lover of righteousness. How he hated sham. meanness, any- thing that was small and narrow or pharasaic. His voice was ever raised against tyranny, oppression and injus- tice. The things for which our na- tion has gone to war were the “things he always championed. He was great- ly interested in the present war, and expressed 'himself ‘freely against the autocracy of Cermany, Austria and ‘Turkey. ad not the war cost him the loss of his beautiful daughter, Mrs. Ussher? Courage and Faith, In that great bereavement, Mr. Barrows displayed wonderful courage and faith. He rose above his loss and grief and faced iife, not only with courage, but also with cheerfulness, and shed about him, not the gloom of his sorrow, but the inspiration of his faith and courage. His life reflected that abiding faith ll{lnGofl that Faber has expressed in the es: “He, always wins who sides with God, ‘To him no chance is lost. God’s will is sweetest to him when It triumphs at his cost.” Such a life of faith, courage, cheer- fulness, unselfishness, devotion is our heritage, ours to reproduce and to transmit to those who come after us. We rejoice today in the life that was permitted to shine among us, and that we have caught somethingz of the spirit that made him a true man of God, a Christian gentleman, and a worthy friend.

Several Westerly registrants who were rejected for service on first ex- amination, have been accepted under the questionnaire plan, and some have been placed in Class 1, Division A. Up to date no resolution has been in- troduced in either hranch of the les: Islature to authorize the creation of |the substitution of a town fire systom In Westerly, to supercede the fire dis- trict plan, as recommended at the fi- nancial town meeting. The town council is juggling with a proposed ordinance relatigg to bill boards and which would impair pub- lic notice of patriotic movements; fea- ture advertising that could not be -at- taineq through any other source ,and which does not bring profit to the owners of bill boards.

New York, Feb. 17.—A huge chim- Panzee, fashionably attired in a suit of men’s evening clothes, strolled into the lobby of the Knickerbocker hotel at the dinner hour tonight. The aui- mal behaved decorously and attracted no particular attention until a woman guest of the hotel notices its face. She |- screamed. Many other women joined in the chorus. Police reserves and a patrol wagon were called and some of the hotel em- ployes wanted to send in a fire alarm. Several policemen arrested the chim- panzee and escorted it to the patrol wagon. The driver saw its face and ahnounced he was. through for the night. A police captain called for vol- unteers and several animal lovers agreed to escort the prisoner to ths West Thirtieth street station house. The wind was cold and on the way the champanzee had a chill. . Two or three of the volunteers fell off the ‘wagon when he began to manifest hi discomfort by shrill screams. Arrived at the police station, the champanzee astounded the lieutenant in eharge b leaping up on the desk and from there to a radiator, where it perched con- tentedly while a police matron faint- ed. Later the animal's keeper was ar- rested on a charge of disorderly con- duct. He said his pet escaped from « Broadway theatre where it was on exhibition while he was at dinner. He made an earmest plea against beins ordered to take it to the men’s night court and it was turned over to an- other keeper while he went to court to be arraigned. ut Out Coupon Below-Worth ~ Twenty-Five Cents To You Good, at Local Druggists, as Long as the Free Supply Lasts, for One 25-cent Package of the External “Vapor” Treat- ment That Relieves Colds Over Night — Croup in 15 Minutes, ! ; Each Local ' Druggist Will Give Away 60 Free Pack- ages, 12 of Which Are Full| Size 25-cent Jars. Fifteen years ago, In a little North Carolina fown, a druggist discovered a process of combining the old-fash- ioned remedies—Camphbr, Turpentine and Menthol—with certdiin volatile oils such as Eucalyptus, Thyme, Cubebs and Juniper, so that, when applied ex- ternally, the body Heat would vapor- ize these ingredients. These vapors, inhaled all night fong. carfy the medi- cation, with each-breath, direct to the air passages and lungs. Today this yapor treatment, Vick's VapoRub, is almost universally used throughout the South in preference to internal “dosing.” It is quick in its action, and what is more important, particularly to mothers with small children, it is applied externally and hence does not disturb the most deli- cate stomach. ‘Colds are easiest treat- ed at the beginning and VapoRub makes the ideal préventive for the en- tire family. This preparation comes in salve form and its action is twofold. Bx- ternally, it is absorbed thru and stim- ulates the skin, taking out that tight. ness and soreness in the chest. In- ternally, the vapors inhaled loosen the phlegm and open the air passages For croup or colds just rub a little over the throat and chest and cover with a warm flannel cloth. One ap- plication at bedtime prevents a night attack of croup. For very severe chest colds, ton- silitis, bronchitis or incipient pneu- monia, hot wet towels should be first applied over the parts to open the pores of the skin and then use Vapo- Rub. For headcolds, asthmatic or .. catarrhal troubles a little VapoRub can be rubbed up the nostrils or melted in a spoon and the vapors in- haled. The manufacturers know that an actual ,trial is the best way to prove how valuable VapoRub is in the home and they have accordingly furnished each druggist in Norwich with 60 free packages, to be given away on pre- sentation of the coupon below. GOOD AT YOUR DRUGGISTS for a free package of Vick's Vapor- Rub, as long as the free supply lasts.
