Who have seen the|iment is now attending an automo- g bile school in France, he writes in a Repute as Summer Picnic marine Base Occupy Cottages Which Have Been Special- ly Prepared For Them. Riverview, the sightly place owned at Gales Ferry by Charles H. Brown of this city, and known to hundreds of people in Norwich as a delightful pic- nic ground, has this year become a regular military colony rather than the swmmer resort which has been in distinguishing characteristic in years past, when Mr. Brown was host to many Sunday school or more private picnics and at the same time had a considerable summer colony- domiciled on the place. The change has all been brought about by war conditions and the prox- imity of the submarine base a little farther south on the banks of the Thames river, as the Gales Ferry neighborhood prnvlded an eligible lo- cation for officers from the submarine base who wished to establish homes for their families within easy reach of the base. Since cdrly spring repairs, altera- tions und improvements have been go- ing on in the various cottages on the Riverview property of Mr. Brown and the this development has been under the direction and in charge of his nephew, Carl W. Brown, who removed from this city to live in one of the cot- tages on the place with his family. At -times Mr. Brown has had as many as 23 men at a time working there under his direction as the gen- — MILITARY COLONY AT GALES FERRY |Frankiin Charles H.

It is one of the possibilities of the possibilities of the future that electric lights will be provided for the entire tract as the high tension line of the Eastern Connecticut Power company is to be carried across the Thames river from the Montville side at this point. The tower on the Gales Ferry side of the river which will carry the wires is to be located on hill on the Brown farm and when the electric current is available it will be it will be easy to have the electric fluid in any part of Gales Ferry. In former years, when Mr. Brown first became the owner of Riverview and extended a general invitation for picnic parties to visit the place, he often had thousands of people there in the course ol a summer, taking pleasure in acting the host to them with large hearted generosity that placed all the facilities of the grounds at their disposal, but in recept years the number of visitors had dropped off considerably. This Mr. Brown as- scribed to the increase of trolley travel facilities in this section and more and more of a drive towards the seashore as a pleasure ground. RUSH FOR LICENSES BY COUNTRY MERCHANTS Floods Washington Bureau With Ap- plications — Emergency ~ Measures Taken. Hundreds of !mflll country mer- chants in Connecticut,’ who have just learned that they must secure a food administration iicense if they wish to buy eggs and poultry and sell them other than at retail, are flooding the license division of the food admin tration at Washington with appl tions for licenses. Because of this large influx of inquiries and applica- tions, a special application form has been prepared to cover the emergency and to be used only until the regular form of application is issued. Per- sons now holding a food administra- tion license covering their dealings in egss and poultry are not required to obtain a new license. There are many persons in Connecticut, heretofore ex- empt, who now under the president's proclamation of May 14 and must se- Ccure a license to cover their small mid- dlemen’s or jobbers' transactions be- tween farmers and other retailers, The food administration’s daw partment at ‘Washington has informed the federal food administration for Connecticut of a new ruling covering the guarantee of sales at prices by commission handling’ poultry or eggs, being as follows Where a commission merchant re- a consignment of poul nd guarantebs to the con: a_definite sellinz price, he must s on the account sales the actual at which the goods are sold, together with services actually performed an expenses actually incurred, and as a separate-item must show any sum paid to the consignor by reason of the com- mission_merchant's contract of guar- anty.

A compromise settlement® in a workmen's compensation claim agreed upon between Mrs. Emily C. Burdick of Westerly and the Standard Ma- chinery Co. of Mystic over the death of her husband, Benjamin Burdick. has been approved by Commissioner J. J. Donohue. ¢The company is to pay her $1,700 in full settlement of claim. Mr. Burdick had his left foot se- verely burned by molten iron on March 18, while at work and died at Providence on April 13, 1918, It was shown that he had suffered from dia- betes for a considerable time, having lost 40 pounds in a vear, a there was some_ doubt as to whether the death of Mr. Burdick was actually caused by the injuries or by the dia- betic condition.
