NORWICH BULLETIN, i&gim; SEPTEMBER !'lu: uvh didn’t pay heed to gn reques! save gasoline /by foregoing Sunday jey riding had some experi- ences Sunday. It was a poor and un- irequented road, in this section of the state, en which they could travel three miles without being held up by state guards, police or qther officials and asked as to the urgency of their business. > Some had good excases; others did not; in fact, some that were out with cars offered explamations that would make a horse laugh—if horses laughed —and looked and acted as if they ex- pected the officials to believe what they said. A few, of course, had good exeuges for using their ears, and in- cluded in this numher were the drivers who had permits to take their ma- chines to Lehanen, to the patriotic pil- grimage. The numbers of all machines that were out without apparent good cause were taken by these who had eharge of the werk of keeping tabs on drive: but what will be done about the ma! ter remains to be seen. One effeci has been achieved, how- ever, and that is te convince the aver- age driver. who hadn’t previously real ized it, that a good American isn't i gasoline on Sundays now, un- of ~ urgent necessity; neither does a good sport, which shouid eover all of the people of the allied countries, at least. The gasoline slackers = yesterday were mueh less numerous than on the yprevious Sunday. Many ha® vielded, from the week before. to the pressure of public opinien. It is safe to assert that the automebile traffic through n was reduced on Sunday by to 9§ per cemt. from normal, plendid showing. to it sick friend in the hospi After milk for a sick baby,” “Papa’s cow is il” “Sister sent me down to see if the styles have changed,” were some, er as reascnably by those whe persisted in using on flim: pretexts. One car that was held up.in Dan- jelson was en route, the driver said, from Maine to New Jersey. “on urgent business.” The driver didn't explain further. A motereyclist held up here was en route from Philadelphia to Woonseocket, Lis hame town. He had been stopped 42 times between Stam- ford and Danielson, he said, and was beginning te get peeved-about it. It hadn’t oceurred to him at all that he was entirely to blame for being out with his machine on Sunday. He was inclined to he impudent, withall, so his number was taken by Chief Grimshaw cars . and more may be heard of the case later. A few wisenheimers driving ma- chines would dedge into side streets when they saw state guards ahead a knew they would be held up. This heiped a the streets they them then The average man that owns a car wowns hereabouts left his machine garage Sunday. Some of them like the system of gas saving but they are obeying it to the letter, and will continue to do so as long as required. About 100 men were at Phillips' the north shere of Alexan- lake Sunday for the annual clam- > of the Danielson Firemen's asso- ciation. Notwithstanding the fact that rain threatened throughout the day, and came down in showers at times the outing wae one of the most en- i ble ang successful of the whole series that has been held in the past "decade. The bake, arrapged by W. A. Whipple and staff, was served about 2.30 o'clock, and was excellent—one af the very hest of the year. Everything came to the tables piping het and splendidly cooked and the manner in which the good things were put away went through got in a food donservator as Herbert Heover. Amusements of various kinds served to keep the firemen and their guests interested every fainute of the day. Music was by the Goodyear Military band, which was complimented upon its program and upon the singing of its_members ‘ Chief A. P. Woedward and other borough officials were present at the dinner, and the guests included Chief Boursier of the Putnam fire depart- ment and Street Superintendent Fred- erick Dumas of the same ecity. The theft of a Liberty bond and some thrift stamps—the property of a Prospect voung woman—has had a sequel in the arrest of a 20-mule team Borax employe in Hartford and the return of the property to its rightful owner. The man, who is of middle age, expressed deep and very sincere regret for his slip from righteousness and said that his conscience had both- ered him ever since he took the se- curities. He was arrested by Robert Hurley, the well known detective. Private Jerry Doyle, chemical war- are department. was at his home here Sunday on leave. Private Doyle took a special course at the Parker Memo- rial scheol in Boston upen being in- ducted into service, and is now en- gaged in the hazardous oceupation of filling gas shells, a werk that requires that his gas mask be kept in position for instant use during the period while he is actively engaged at his ons ing to register here ave their cards sent {o other jurisdietions may do so teda dav before Thursday by app Chief Registrar Frank T. Presten, at the town clerk’s office. Registration certificates will not be issued here to such registrants, whe will personally mail their cards to their local boards and will receive certificates from these boards by return mail. TLoeal men who are going to be away Thursday may alse register now, but legitimate claims for early registration must be had, not merely a desire to register ahead of time. Private Walter Adams of a machine gun battalion at Camp Devens was at his home here over Sunday. Private Albert Talnese of Camp Devens was at his home here Sun- day. Mrs. Rienzi Robinsen has cancelled her plans to give an entertainment at kome this afternoon for the benefit of oversea hospital, on account of the death of her intiffate friend, Mrs. William Isaaes, of Broeklyn. Mrs. Irz Martin of Sanford, Fla., has been visiting with friends In Dan- ielson. John V. Morris of Providenee was a vigitor with Danielson friends over Sunday. Earl F. Wood of Providence spent the week end with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. A. F. Wood. This is the week that the politicians are busy. A caueus to nominate town officers comes on Friday evening. John W. Xennedy of New London visited at his heme here over Sun- day. Members of the State guard will have a regular drill Tuesday evening. J. Edward Newton, an assistant personnel secretary of the northeast- ern department of the Y. M. C. A.. will be in Danielson for the purpose of in- teresting men in Y. M. C. A. work. Mr. wton may be seen Tuesday and Wednesday of this week from 1.30 until 2.30 o'clock at the office of Back & Darbie. This is a great opportunity for the men of Danielson and vicinity to get int ooverseas work. Lieut. Cel. E. S. Wheeler, in a letter to General Per- shing, said: “There is no one factor contributing more to the morale of the American army in France than the Y. M. C. A.
