Employes Show Subscriptions of $136,450 For Whole Campaign. et With the eleventh hour at hand lo- cal bank figures show that Norwich still has $14,150 to go to attain her quota of $1,251,400. This amount is so small that undoubtedly the thermome- ter on.Franklin Square will, at an early hour this morning, show that Norwich has gone over the top. The Federal Reserve Bank of Boston has credited Norwich . with having gone over two.days ago. In First Ranks in State. After the tabulation of the figures on Friday the total number of sub- scriptions was 6,978, which, according to .the population, is one of the best showings made by any city in the state, and today's number will carry the total well beyond the 7.000 mark or at an approximate rate of one sub- scriber to every four persons.

One of the features in the factory+ drive has been the noonday talks by four minute men and others.

Private Kelly bears the marks of twenty-four shrapnel wounds, has had both legs broken and lost the sight of cne eye in the Somme battles and is vet doing his bit in winning the, war. Private Kelly’'s experiences are many and varied. In one battle he had three horses killed under him and finally a shell exploded mnear him, wounding him. While on a Red Cross hospital ship the Huns torpedoed .the boat. He also told of .the atrocities committed by the Huns and his opinion of them is _not printable.
