Martindale—Farms in the Same Class as Railroads, Mines and Munition Plants — Industries Cannot Solicit the Farm Hand. Employes of farm labor are protect- ed from loss of their workers by the government's new War labor regula- tions, according to an announcement given out Wednesday for the benefit of the .farmers of thjs section, by Su- perintendent H, J. Martijndale of the Willimantic branch office of the Unit- ed States Employment Service. Under the new government programme, no other war industry or non-war work concern can solicit help from the farms. However, the farmhand can leave his work, voluntarily, to enter a munition shop or any form of in- dustry if he so desires, Many farmers are prgbably aware of the fact that %he govern- ment has taken this stand. The farms of the nation are placed in thé same class as the railroads, the mines, and the munition plants. Any solicita- tion of unskilled iabor frem any of these classes will meet with direct investigation and punishment of the individuals and corporations respon- sible, but it is not expectad there will be any trouble of this kind. A number of cases have been re- ported to the Willimantic superin- tendent by farmers in tndt vicinity. not These cases, after investigation were fBufid- to be free from solicitation.

The guard details were selected from both regiments, so that nearly all the offi- céfs had a chance to secufé practical experiénce in this important featire of their work.

A cloudy sky early in the evén- ing led many to expect rain byt the stars finally came out and the weath- er cooled off oaly slightly. About two hundred and fifty gallons of ice éream were eonsumed in town in the effort to keep cool.

Local draft boards have received a letter from the office of Governor Hol- comb stating that during the five day period beginning August 26 there must be entraifned in this state 2,500 men for Camp Greenleaf, Lytle, Ga. Allotments will be made at a later date of the number of meén to be sent by each di- viston. This is one of the largest calls which has heen made in the state. As most of the divisions of the'draft board here have practically exhausted the draft men of the 1917 class it will, in all probability, be necessary to take men of the 1918 registration to com- plete {he quotas here. If such proves to be the case it will be the first time 1918 registrants have heen. used to make up the quotas in this city. This call was anticipated as the local boards have been or@ered not to release any more men for merchant marine and other services. b Haddam Bridge.

Ail the officers were invited to Withess the fi2ld day exercises in New London Wednesday and a section of the grandstand was resetved for them. There is no doubt but that all the Norwich men will derive zréat bene- fits from their tour of duty at the camp and all learned many new wrin- kles in their work. Arong these was the riot drill, which consisted of a holiow square with bayonets out, and some of the latest bayonet movements, as taught in the army now.
