It is thé quiet taking up of a task in the light of a new vision and patiently continuing it. All of God's processes are slow but sure and are workinig towaré that far- off divine event. This is shown in the lessons of history, hoth and sec- ular, Take my yoke upon you, learn of me and ve shall find rest for your soul, said Jesus. I sanctify myself. We must sanctifyd ourselves. That is, in othet words, énlist the service of God, Christ knew the structdre of life and its purpose. Christ died on the cross for the foundation of the world, and the cross is the pattefn of the world for eternity. Sacrifice is one of the great prin- ciples in the pattern of the cross. Sacrifice means giving up something. It may be a hard task for some to give OVERHEARD DOUGLAS SAY BUILDING WAS SAFE Clerks Corroborate’ Their Employers’ Story in Superior Court.

Peter F. Huber, a member of the firm, who went on the stand Wednes- @ay morning, completed his testimony in the afternoon, snd he was followed by Frank 8. Clark and Micg Mary Ga- ney, clerks in the store, who told of overhearing the conversation between Mr. Huber and H. R. Douglas, presi- dent of the H. R.

Miss Ganey was on the stand when court adjourned for the day Wednes- day, and she finished her testimony hursday. John M.

Hogs have decreased in the British Isles more than any other livestock. Between 1916 and 1917, swine in Tre- land decreased 26.4 per cent; in Eng- land and Wales 11.5 per cent. and in Secotland 9.5 per cent. Of the total decline exceeding 500,000, more than 50,000 were breeding sows, French Bread Rations. Only the very poor and men and women doing the hardest Kind of work may have more than 7 outices of war bread a day in France. The entire wheat erop of France has been requisitioned by the French Gov- ernment. Some Berlin Prices. About October 1, 1917, butter was selling in Berlin at $2.25 per pound, sugar at 56 cents per pound, and ham and bacon at §2.11 per pound. This information w: réceived by the U. S.

The tnen who copy Him need Him and learn of Him, they trst their all to his keep- ing. This @octrine of the cross was looked askance at years ago, but it is now seen to be a part of life. God calls tipon us today to walk with God and to build the city of God in this fair land of America. Let us get a new vision of God and His pufpose and pattern after the cross upon which our Saviour died that we might live. Will the gresping of land and the killing of soldiers ever end this ter- rible war? Never. We must do God’s will and bring ourselves on to His side and fight for His eternal kingdom. Good will surely come of this great confliet, for all God’s works are good There will be a new light and new vision, and the peoples of the earth must see this Vision and pattern after the cross. ess by the is no ow CHILEAN SHIPS START ON HOMEWARD TRIP. Cruiser, Transport and Submarines Steamed Away Thursday Afternson. Admiral Louis Gomez of the Chilean navy, accompanied by one of his lieu- D. |tenants, visited Mayor Ernest E. Ros- ‘ers of/ New London Wednesday, making an official farewell call prior to de- parture for Chile. 'The admiral in- formed Mayor Rogers that he plafned| to leave Thursday. on his flagship, tie Chacabuco, which will convoy the Chilean transport Angamos with the 8ix Chilean stbinarines, on their long trip south of the equator. . The cruiser Chacabuco, the trans- port Angamos and the six Chilean sub- marines steamed away at 1.35 Thurs- day afternoon, ' The Chileans have been in New London since last September, and be- ing natives of a warm climate, they have had an experience with a north- ern winter which they are unlikely to forget for some time hence. During the severe part of the cold spell the Chilean cruiser was frozen in solid in the harbor; so that for a few days it was impossible to get a boat out to her to deliver supplies. Finally a tug was chartered to break the ite and got out to the cruiser and a big sup- ply of meats and groceries was put on_board. Some of the sailors left the cruiser and walked about her on the ice in the harb6r and photographs were taken of this uhusual scene, which many of them will take home to show to their relatives and friends The ‘transport Aangamos achieved considerable notoriety not many weeks ago when she was reported lost on a voyage from New York to New Lon- dos; she having been missing for three days before she was located. The news of her disappearance was re= ceived with concern, inasmuch as she had a large crew and a very valuable cargo. It was stated, but could not be confirmed, that not the least valuable Ipart of her cargo was $3,000,000 in gold. She also has on board some 50 flat cars built by the Pullman com- pany, about a dozen automobiles and other valuable cargo. % EGGS COST MORE IN CONNECTICUT That Is What Federal Food Adminis- tration Says. In a review of foodstuff prices is- sued by the federal food administra- tion, it appears that Comnecticut is noted throughout. the country as being highest in the average price for eggs. The food administration analysis of the retail prices for foodstuffs is as follows: “Advances in retail prices on food stuffs have been checked. Like the race between the allied combative powers ahd thé submarine menace is the race between high prices and high- rice-destroyers. But the advantage s slightly on the side of the regulat- ng forces, “No one expects low prices in war- time. .

It naturally should help to soften, freshen, bleach and bring out e rise above the point warranted by economic conditions. Since the Unit- ed States began to regulate distribu- tion and to limit profits, there has been a steady settling of prices to the normal economic line. We, still have high prices, but & rédession has begun and we'do not have the extortionate prices we had at the beginning of the war, “A study of the trénd of retail food prices for the last quarter of 1917, is- sued by the United States Food -Ad- ministration, shows that in this period, out of a group of 20 articles listed, |8 prices declined on nife, increased on 18, and remainéd the same on two. Decreases were shéwn in wheat flour, bread, tomatées, corn, pork chops, while incréases were shown in bacon, ham, lard, butter, cheese ahd eggs. “The most important decréase was hat of 10 cents pér one-eighth bar- réi bag of flour. Another favorable change was that in the price of the 16 to 17 ounce loaf of wheat bread, which sold at 11,3 cents on October 6, while on December 29 it was 10.3 cents. This decrease of about 10 per cent. in the price of a gound loaf of bread, followed the cooperation of tie bakers with the food administration in standardizing the processes of haking. “A comparison of the average state quotations on a pound loaf wheat bread shows an increase in the num- ber of states quoting this size loaf at less than ten cents. “Prices still elin¢ around the max- imum on foodstuffs which offer few opportunitied for progressive stab: zation. All dairy products show mar- ket value increases in both the United States “and Canada. A comparison shows that with regard to price in- creases the United States is better off than Canada, During the period in which one-third. or 9 out of 29, food products in the United Staics were de- creasing in price, only twe out of 22 food commodities were showing a de- crease in Canada. “As to variations in prices between different sections of the United States, the report shows that they are not as a rule accidental but reflect normal price differences extending over per- iods of tinie. Thus flour is consisten Iy highest in Fiorida and lowest in Idaho. ~Corn meal is cheaper in the southern statés than elsewhere. Dur- the period covered by the record, Con- necticut was almost consistently high- est, in average price for eggs, as was Rhode Island for round steak. Dur- ing the same quarter, Idaho reported the lowest average price o potatoes ten - times; California on sugar 11 times, and Oregon on round steak 12 times, 2 NEW RULES FOR WHEAT MILL FEEDS Victory Bread Must Contain One- Fourth Substitutes to Three-Fourths Wheat Flour.
