OBITUARY. Henry ‘Rabinovitch. The death of Henry Rabinovitch oc- curred at his home on Clff street Fri- day morning following an illness of three years. Mr. Rabinovitch was born in Rus- sia 64 years ago, but had been in the United States for the past 25 years. In this period he made his home in Norwich for the past 20 vears. Com- ing to this country with comparatively few financial resources, he grew to be one of the most influential business men of Norwich. Rabinovitch was a well known rherchant in this city, having been in business for 20 years. He is survived by his wife and seven children, three sons, Max and Israel of this city and Alex of Vermont, and four daughters, Nellie and Mrs. J. Strom of Norwich, Mrs. William Litschutz and Mrs. Rose Freedman of ;‘;‘ew York. There are five grandchil- ren. Miss Carrie Cobleigh. The death of Miss Carrie Cobleigh of 41 Hamilton avenue, occurred on Friday in this city following a short illness. She was born in Preston Aug. 21, 1875, and has always made her Tiome | here. She was the daughter of the late John R. and Henrietta Cobleigh. She was a devoted member of the Central Baptist church and had a large number of friends who will be grieved to learn of her death. She is survived by her mother and three brothers, John R., Lyman J. and Arthur M. Cobleigh. e Varieties of the Peanut. Roughly speaking, three varieties of | peanut are grown in this country—red, The. white, the most important variety, Las a nut with two kernels with pink skins; its vine spreads along the ground, in this re spect unlike that of the red variety. which grows more upright and in a bunch. The pod of the red nuf holds ‘three dnd sometimes four kernels, and has a deep red skin. The Spanish is a much smaller nut, with a lighter skin and milder flavor than either of the others possesses. The entire crop ir shelled ahd used especmlly in the cou- fection known as nougat. Explaining the Ceremony. 1t is from the Boston Traveler, and is supposed to have been spoken by a clergyman's small son, whose alder | brother was to be confirmed at church. “It's like this,” quoth the youngster, ‘the bish’ is going to put his mitts on brother’s bean.” Probably the worst thing about pov- erty is the monotony connected with it.

B. Stanton pre- sided at the meeting and introduced Dr. Abbott after a half hour program by the Academy orchestra under the direction of Frederick H. Cranston. Mr. Stanton spoke briefly of the necessity of Americanizing the children of for- eign parents. who might attend our schools. We must teach them what it is to be Americans. This is the teacher’'s job. Dr. Abbott sketched with the brush of a ‘student of world history the pro- gress of democracy in the world from the Fourth of July, 1776, which is call- | ed the birthday of freedom. Democracy | means the reign of the /people in re- ligion, industry, education and poli- ties. . .+ As one walks about in Germany he sees no moverty, no ragged clothes. | Why? Simply because it is against| the law for anybody to come out on the streets in ragged garments. Mr. Girard’s book states that 55 per cent. of the German families live in one | room. Certainly that is conclusive evidence that the German government Nor does Germany know any ligious liberty. The very es German education, politically and otherwise, is ‘“might makes fight.” The essence of. their religion is the honor due those higher up in author- ity. We can afford to let Germany have her system—if she would leave us to enjoy our liberty, but sha has with the purpose of bringinz t world under her no mistake! The is. to establish al the Romans of old. believe this, had it not been all too lear]ly interpreted by the lurid light the last four yvears. There is no in international law. any long- er; a band of brigands has launched its engines of destruction against civ- ilization: there is a violation of moral law, whicl all civilization had agreed upon and accepted: there are schemes It would be of safety have committed rape on a scale n known before in the history. of world; there have been flagrant I Rome—-Noted Divine Makes in fact, Germany has violated all the Ten Commandments. It ‘has taken America a long time to wake ‘up. Belgium and the Lusitania tragedy might have aroused us, but they did not. At last, when a sub- marine came to New London, at our very doors, and showed us what the Germans ‘could - do, when they began negotiating with Mexico, to invade’] our country, e finally woke up. Now, the first duty of America is, to make haste!”We have poured out our money and food, stinted our coal supply, given our sons, though some of them have only gotten as far as camp, and are still unarmed. We are beginning to appoint the biggest and strongest men in America as heads of things; we have a big job on hand and we need the biggest men to carry it on. ‘We must send our message through press and - wire, “Make Haste!” 1f the -conscience of America is aroused, we know it is the right and thing to do, we shall have courage to do it. "e must put aside the ambition to lay up money; we have not vet reach- ed the point’ where - self-sacrifice is needed, but we have ‘ reached that point when we must stop laying up money. The one thing we can do is, to buy Liberty bonds. It is a conflict not between nations, but civilization and into our hands, with all our wealth and manhood, God puts the sword—let us draw it until the Ger- mans are defeated beyond all hope of reprisal. Junior Red Cross. Following Dr. Abbot's stirring ad- dress, Miss Ruth Dunning, the agent of the State Board of Education gave an interesting talk on the work of the Ju- nior Red Cross. At the close of her talk, Miss Dun- ning answered many questions and gave much valuable information to the teachers. Morning Session.

AUTO HIT CHILD NEAR FRANKLIN STREET CORNER Ruth Bruckner Knocked Down by Car Driven. by Judge Holdredge. Ruth Bruckner, the six-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Abraham Bruckner of 57 Franklin street, was struck and knocked down by an au- tomobile driven by Judge Samuel E. Holdredge of Ledyard on Friday morning about 10.30 o’clock on Frank- lin street, near the corner of Bath street. The child sustained a cut in the lip which it required two stitches to close, and had cuts inside her mouth and bruises on other parts of her body. She suffered also seriously from shock and has been in bed at her home since the accident. Judge Holdredge was driving car down Franklin street at the umc of the accident and when the little girl was struck she fell between the wheels and was picked up behind the car after it had passed over her, ac- cording to what w told her father. Her parents were not with her at the time but were in their store at 53 Franklin street. BOY SCOUTS BEGIN GLEANING TODAY. Expect to Secure a Gocd Amount for Liberty Loan. The Boy Scou will take up the work of canvassing for subscriptions to the Liber loan today and’*will continue it until the close on May 4. The scouts’will act as gleaners after the reapers. As many of the Dpeople told the house to house\canvassers that | they were waiting for the Boy Scouts to start their campaign, it is expected that a large number of subscriptions will be secured. One feature of the Boy Scout drive will be that one man in Norwich has agreed to give a $5,000 subscription to the Boy Scout who stops him on the street and asks him to subscribe. The man will appear on the street from 2 to 4 p. m. As in previous cam- | paigns, medals of honor will be given to the scouts securing ten subscrip- tions or over. “Unelaimed Letters.

R. Butts, Friday evening. They seem to be willing to let 1he other fellow do the subscribing, continued Chairman Butts and now we must get after them and get them to suhscribe. ’l‘he total at the close of banking hours on Friday was $793.700 and the total number of subscriptions was 4,- 193, With only seven business da)s remaining in which to secure Nor- wich's, quota of $1,251400 each day’s subscriptions for the remaining time must be a trifle over $65,000 per day. If the people who are perfectly able to lend the government money to pro- tect the business interests which give these same people their wealth would only subscribe according to their means Norwich would have her name entered on the honor roll of towns whose patriotic - citizens have seen their chance to aid the country. At the Davis theatre on Friday eve- ning the sum of $400 was subscribed in Liberty bonds. Those in charge were Mrs. James J. Casey. Mrs. Mary Crowe and Miss Anna Ward. Willis Austin was barker. Through the efforts of Mrs. Norman Kimball, Mrs. Thomas M. Shields and Miss Jessica Eldred twenty-one sub- scriptions for the amount of $1050 were received .at the Breed theatre Friday evening. Rev. William H. Kennedy made a most patriotic appeal to the people to subscribe for the Lib- erty wbonds. COLONIAL CLUB HAS ITS ANNUAL MEETING Supper Before the Busiress Session —John B. Oat President.
