Hach class must make two summer cruises on the Coast Guard craft and in order to fulfil the required train- ing in ship drills and navigation the eadets will make several trips dur. ing the coming months instead of one long cruise.

Saturday afternoén the second field day for the benefit of the Taftville honor roll was held in the village and proved to be a great success. The exercices opened with a parade through the village, after which there was speaking, tableaux and athletic events on the Providence street ball grounds, The exercises included the unturling and dedication of a com- munity service flag with over 140 stars, The parade formed on Front street and was made up as follows: { Platoon of Special Officers. ¢ Tubbs’ Military Band. Sceuts, Troops 1 and 10, S. A. Junior Red Cross Division. Young Ladles’ Red Cross Class. Marricd Ladies’ Red Cross Class. Service Flag Division. St. John's and $t, Louis’ Socleties with Serviee. Flags. Fire Companies. The line of march was through Front street, up North B, over Slater avenue to Providence street, up Providence istreet to Hunter's avenue, through Hunter's avenue to South B, down South B to the ball grounds. The parade circled the ball grounds and then with the band stationed in the northwest corner went thraugh drill A group of young ladies went throush drills with a large American flag, but the prettiest drill was that of’ the red- capped Junior Red Cross members who from a column of marching tots shifted to the cross, their req headdresses forming the symbol of “The Greatest Mother in‘the World” against the green turf. A platform was erected on the hill to the west of the ball grounds and here the exercises were held. - After the service flag had been unfurled. Chairman F. B. Ricketon of the local Red C chapter spoke a few words telling of the work which the l8cal chapter has donme. Practically all the 140 boys who have left the village have been supplied with wrist watchas Dby the chapter and the chapter s still supplying as far as it is able smokes and other little comforts for the boys. Mr. Ricketson mentioned the field day of ‘a year ago, when over $i00 was raised for the honor rell. The chapter quota of 1,200 members was passed early in the afternoon. The audience sang America. Rev. Father. DesSureault of Occum briefly addressed the assemblage in French and he was followed by Rev. Arthur Varley of Taftville, who made a few brief remarks. With the girls| of the graduating class of the Sacred | Heart school dressed in patriotic cos- tumes and making appropriate ges- tures, the audience joined them in the singing_of The Star Spangled Ban- ner, The girls were posted on the rocks end in the hacksround Miss Beatrice Dupont stood on a pedestal, representing At her feet were rouped some of the Boy Scouts. With their costumes, gestures and sweet young voices the youns ladies made great impression on the crowd, which numbered about 300 With the village seryice flag for a background and ihe natinnal ensign as wings and_curtain f tableaus | were presented. The first represented s poster with M nces McCarthy as the Red Cro: and with Boy Scouts in the background as sOldiers, The second tableau repre- Columbia. Mrs. Leonard Pren- tice was Columbia and in front of her were George Weller, a sailor, and a captain from one of the island forts, typifying the army and na To the accompaniment of the band Mrs. Prentice rendered Columbia the Gem of the Ocean. Miss Lonise Waite ap= peared as Joan of Arc in the third tablean and stood in armor, while Al- phonse Tellier rendered The Marsel- salies. In the fourth tableau Miss Sophie Thoma appeared as a Red Cross nurse, while Boy Scouts repre- sented wounded soldiers. The fina tableau showed the allied nations. Mr: Leonard Prentice symbolized Liberty, while Miss Josephine Moelleur in wid- ow's weeds represented en Bel- gium. The par n and Erance were taken by s Elizabeth Skinner and Leola Bazerone, respect- ively. After the tableaux played beiween: two Boy Scout troops, and after this the teams from the Pincchle and Wheel clubs played, the Pinochle club win- ning 5 to 2, thanks to the masterly pitching of Donohue. In between the ball games the athletic events sisting of sack and three-legged races, were run off. The stage was flanked by hooths where ice cream, soft drinks, popcor: and candy were sold, and at the ex treme right was a booth ywhere the membership committee did a thriving business. 'Besides the booths, young dies circulated through the crowd selling smokes and as well as collecting for thé honor roll fund. The celebration was brought to a close at 6 o'clock by a prearranged fire alarm rung in for a carefully kir dled fire on the south end of the ball grounds. The fire company supported by the Taftville Fire associ i beat the Ponemah company in responding to %he alarm and quick- Iy put out the fire. ‘While no definite report has been made, it seems certain that the pro- .ceeds’ of Saturday's celebration will far exceed the profits of the first field day. The affair was weil planned and well carried out, the parade and tab- leaux being especially good. Probably the feature of the celebration which attraeted the most attention was the service flag division in the parade, where approximately 150 mothers and Telatives marched, each carrying a small flag for the boy who has gone. Taftville certainly is to be proud of her honor roll and alsp of her commit- tee and Red Cross workers who are so staunchly supporting them here at a ball game was from the home. Entertained Friends. Saturday evening John Paradis en- tertaineq a number of his friends at his home on North B street. Guests were present from Jewett City and Baltic besides a large number from Norwich.

SHEA & BURKE 41 Main Sireet FuneralDirectors PRAYER, LABOR, THRIFT, THE DUTY OF CHRISTIANS Gospel For Sunday Suggests Timely, Patriotic Theme to Rev. Myles P, Galvin. Preaching at the high mass in St Patrick's church yesterday from the gospel for the Sunday, the sixth after Pentecost, which narrated the mira: cle of the multiplication of the loaves and fishes, as told in St. Mark, viii, 1-9, Rey. Myles P. Galyin stated that miraculous incident typifies in a ; God’s goodness ta men, in His annual multiplication of the fruits of the earth, Man has his share in this abund- ande only through tha beneficence of all men, rich and poor, are as beggars at the door of God. Frequently, when absorbed in the things of this world, God's_creatures forget to thank Him for His innumerable benefits, forget that, as Saint James tells us, every good and perfect gift is frem above. Man should merit his share in this abundancg which the Almighty can give to or deprive him of at will, first by prayer; by an humble acknowl- edgment of dependence upen God's bounty. Again, to obtain his share in what God gives requires co-operation on the t of man, that is, labor, BEach has tasks allotted by God and the Scripture reminds us that whoso will not worls has no right to eat. Incidental to labor is the duty fo live frugally; to avoid extravagance, living in luxury which one's means will not allow. At present in this eoun- try men are earning wages never dreamed of before. In spite of the war this country is wonderfully propserous. But with wars end—for which all so fervently hope—must come the reac- tion. Copsequent)y, now is the time to exergise economy, to save for that time, least there be want and misery. The zovernment has recognized this rety ‘of a_ certain reaction, and has ely vided against possible need by devising for the people ene par- ticular way of saving which not only will help the country win the war and will' provide for the bhovs at the fronf, but which is a_gilt-edge form of inyestment, the safe-keeping of fynds In the safest bank in the world, the United States treasury. The preacher adyised his hearers to economize against that possible time of need by buying now Thrift Stamps and War Savings Certificates, laying stress upon the fact that thrift is as much the duty of the Catholic patriotic citizen as the two other opli- atio; necessary to merit a share of fruits of God's earth, praver and labor.
