TAFTVILLE Wednesday morning at 8.30 at the Sacred Heart church, Auphemia Cor- mier and Christogua George Gelino, of 24 Central avenue, ' were united in marriage by Rev. U. O. Bellerose. Rob- ert Gelino, a brother of the groom was best man and Miss Mary Phelan, a friend of the bride was bridesmaid. Many friends of the couple attended the wedding. The musical part of the nuptial mass was conducted by Prof. Kinder. After the wedding there was a re- ception at the home of the bride on Norwich avenue and many friends and relatives attended. The couple re- ceived many beautiful as well as use- ful presents. After a tour the couple will make. their home in Greeneviie. The bride is_the daughter of Alphonse and Clara LaBlanc Cormier. The greater part of her life has been spent in this village. The groom is the son of the late Joseph C. and Mary Moore Gelino and recently received his dis- charge from the navy. At the present time he is employed as a motorman by the Shore lune Ceo. <Yhe many iricnas of the happy couple wish them hap- piness in their married life. One of the resuits of the strike of the trolley men is the falling througn of the pians of the Taftville Congre- i gational church for their Sunday school picnic which is to take place this coming Saturday. The committee had made ail arrangements for the transporiation of the members by troi- ley to Ocean beach, where tne scnool was to spend the day, but now this is impossibie. The committee is now planning to make the trip by auto bus and if cverything goes well the mem- bers will make the trip to and from the beach in this manner. The transportation of mail to and from the vilage is affording the local office quite a little trouble. The mail usuiily was carried by trolley to Nor- wich and to this village twice a day. 1 15 hoped that this imatier can soon be sétued and automobiles will be used unul service is again taken up by tne trolley roads. 1uo peupic Of the village are learn- ing what home sweet home really means now lnat they are unable o 80 out and hop on a car to the city at any time they so desire. Jitneys are .uLning to tne viilage but sucn a thing as a cheduled trip is unknown. This sieys wa.o ufitu they nave Lhejr ai- loted numbeér before they make @ trip and in this way only a few trips are made to the village a day. The Pone- muh Mills auto service Ior lneir men takes care of the workers living out- side the village and the jitneys are not having the looked for harvest ol bus- iness from this place. FAIR GROUNDS TO BE MOBOLIZATION CAMP There has been a rumor flying about Norwich to the effect that the Fair Grounds of the New London County Agricultural Soclety has been desig- nated by the government as one of the mobilization camps of the country. When_interviewed on the subject, Gilbert Raymond, secretary of the so- ciety. said that he had novaing to say at present. “I am not at liberty at present to say anything regarding the matter, save that the statement is in the main true. A little later, I may have permission to give out the story regarding the matter.” Clambake at Lyknu Cottage. A pleasant party gathered Sunday at Lyknu Cottage, Drawbridge, and enjoyed a good old fashioned clam- bake. Those taking part in the eat- ables were Mr. and 1ifrs. Isadore Mc- Nulty and little son, James, Mr. and Mrs. Tracy Burdicle Mr. and Mrs. Da- vid Cushman, Mr. and Mrs. Edward Brodeur and. little son Edward. NOTICE The store of P.

It is e ed_that the new bridge can be!flnil ed g‘y of September. First Selectman Casper K. Bailey opened bids on Wednesday on the steel work for the bridge and awarded that contract to the Berlin -~ Bridge company. They secu the contract at $3,300, the- Lvlest price named in !ogl bids that were handed in. ; e bridge is at Eighth street. over the canal of the United States Finish- ing company, just westerly of bridge over the Shetucket river. The bridge that is to be replaced is a ‘wobden structure with we en flooring and has outlived its usefulness, so that it became necessary for the town to undertake. the erection of a new bridge. The one contracted for will SECURES REDUCTION IN ATTACHMENT AGAINST JACOBS Judge William S. Case in a cham- bers hearing at the county-building in Hartford Tuesday on motion of Judge Joseph P. Tuttle, representing ~Ray- mond B. Jacobs, ordered a reduction of the attachment in the suit insti- tuted on Saturday by Mrs. Gladys W. Jacobs against her husband, from $110,000 to $50,000. Sidney W. Clarke, his client. Mrs. Jacobs and Judge Tut- tle. were at the hearing. Later in the morning, Mr. Jacobs appeared at the county building, Mrs. Jacobs having gone and Mr. Clarke and Judge Tuttle conferred with Judge Haines and later they had a confer- ence with a view of adiusting all of the litigation in which Mr. and Mrs. {Jacobs are involved. No agreement was reached but it was said there is likelihood that an adjustment will be made within a few days. Some months ago Mrs. Jacobs insti- tufed suit for divorce, charging her husband with intolerable cruelty, and Mrs. Jacobs asked that she be award- ed custody of the child born of the marriage. and alimony. Jatobs filed am answer, a cross-bill, ‘in which he charged his wife with a statutory of- fense committed at Neptune Park, Ocean beach, and he asked to be di- vorced from her under the cross-bill The_divorce action was_referred to John W. Coogan, as a committee. He found that none of the claims made by Jacobs had been proved. He found that Mrs. Jacobs had proved her case, that she was entitled to a divorce, ali- mony of $40.000, and the custody of the child. A remonstrance was filed to the acceptance of the report. The attorney for Mrs. Jacobs filed a de- murrer to the remonstrance. Judge Haines sustained the demurrer, and then Judge Haines, at the request of Judge Tuttle, permitted an amend- od remonstrance. The amended re- monstrance is pending, no action hav- ing been taken under it, and conse- quently the divorce action has not been finally disposed of. Mrs. Jacobs’ cause of action insti- tuted Saturday is based upon the mat- ter contained in the husband’s cross- Dbill in the divorce suit, she contend- ing there' was no justification for her husband making_ those charges and that they were defamatory of her. If the plan of adjustment which was dis- cussed yesterday is carried out. the decree of divorce will be entered for {Mrs. Jacobs in accordance with the report of the committee and a set- tlement be made of th other bill. BASS CLEF MEMBERS WERE ENTERTAINED, AT COLCHESTER Tuesday evening Dr. and Mrs. Jo- seph M. Klein entertained twentv-one members of the Bass Clef, at_their at- tractive residence (The Wald'ofl), situated. on Broadway, Colchester. The party left the city in automobiles at 7.45, arriving at the Klein home one hour later. They were cordially re- ceived by Dr. and Mrs. Klein and Miss Loretta B. Perry. A very vleasing programme was giv- en by the Bass Clef including the fol- lowing: The Americans Come, Give a Man a Horse.

J, and graduated from the United States Coast Guard acad- emy at Fort Trumbull in 1917. MEMBERSHIP DANCE HELD AT COMMUNITY CENTER At the Girls' Community Center on Wednesday evening an _enjoyahle { membership dance was held with a good attendance considering that so many of the members of the organiza- | tion live in the outskirts of ‘the city and were unable to be present owing to the trolley strike. The hall was prettily decorated for the occasion and music was furnished by Mrs. Elizabeth Geary Danihy’s orchestra. Comparatively speaking, a miser’s soul is smaller than a boarding house gas bill. 3 e Quick, Painless Way to Remove Hairy Growths (Helps to Beauty) Here is a simple, unfailing way to rid skin of objectionable hairs: With some powdered delatone and water make enough paste to cover the hairy surface, apply and in about 2 minutes rub off, wash the skin and every trace of hair has vanished.

WANTS TO ENCOURAGE TROLLEY RIDING The Connecticut company will do nothing in its attemnt to increase its revenue that will tend to keep people from riding on its cars, according to the statement forthcoming from the New Haven office of the trolley com- pany. That some proposal looking to increased revenue would be pre- sented for the aporoval of the public utilities commission was admitted. but nothing could be learned as to the form such a proposal would take or when it would be presented. The officials of the company are of course, watching Wwith keenest inter- est the experiences of the Boston ele- vated. the public trustees in charge of which increased the fare to ten cents. Indignation meetings were started throughout the metropolitan district in which thousands pledzed themselves to walk to work or to nse some other means of transportation rather than the trolleys. “We want to induce people to ride in our cars rather than antagonize them,” said one trolley official. “and our next move will be made with that idea in mind. I do not look for the suggestion of a flat increase in fare, although Connecticut has about the lowest in New England. It is possible that the company will seek to increase its revenne by re-zoning some of its lines or hy introducing some sort of mileaze plan. Just at present we are watching the hearings n Washington of the federal eclectric railway com- mission which is considering the trol- ley problem from a national point of view.” The Connecticut commany is now just about paying its operating _exnenses with a six-cent fare. this official =aid. Travel by trolley on lines between New Haven and Bridgeport has been heavy recently and it was from income thus derived that the company was able, a few days ago, to pay its tax due to the city of Hartford May 1. .The big problem that confronts the company now. of course is its back debts; abour $750.000 owed the state for taxes: $2,750,000 due the New York, New Ha- ven and Hartford railroad which has advanced monex for nayment on leas- od lines: $1.350,000 due the United States Housing corporation which ad- vanced money for one-man ca: heavy truck cars and for exte tracks in Bridzeport: and no: total of £500,000 more owed ‘municipalities throughout i various the state. “Yes, the Connecticut trolley situa- tion at present is just about where the legislature left it” this trolley official admitted. As fo the zain from the use of the one-man cars in Hartford. this official said the savings had been ma- terial but no concrete statement as to the amount was forthcoming. : 'ss'rs ASIDE DEED TO GROTON LONG POINT HOUSE Judge Frank D. Haines has filed a decision in the superior court for the plaintiff in the case of Egbert L. Hills, of Manchester, this state, administra- tor of the estate of his wife, Mrs. Mary F. Hills, who for many years conduct- ed a Trooming house in Hartford, against James H. Atkins of Hartford The effect of the decision is to se aside a deed by which Mrs. Hills on May 22, 1915, conveyed to Atkins a dwelling house and land in Prospect street, in the Groton Long Point sec- tion of the town of Groon. Mr. Hills and his wife lived apart| for some vears prior to the date of the conivevance to Atkins. Before her death Mrs. Hills instituted suit to have | the deed set aside and on the death' of the wife Hills succeeded her asi plaintiff and as administrator of her | estate. There was no consideration for the deed. Mrs. Hills’ house and on the witness stand he gdmitted he had had relations of an adulerous nature with the wom- | an. The act of execution of the deed ] by Mrs. Hills was voluntary on her' part, Judge Haines finds. However, it! was not her intention or desire to turn the property over to Atkins at the time | or to surrender title to him unreserv- iedly. The statements the woman had | made to her counsel showed this to be true, the judge said, and he said there is at least a fair question as to whether she ever consented to the re- cording of the deed. It was recorded. by Atkins, who had it in his posses- | sion. The judge finds that Atkins ex- | ercised a considerable influence over the woman and but for this the judse} says he believes the deed would never have been made by Mrs. Hills or al- lowed bv her to g6t into his posses- sion. The woman's act in executing| the deed, the judge finds, was not free | and voluntary within the true intent. and meaning of that term. SLATERS’ WASHINGTON HOUSE FOR NATIONAL FARM BOARD The National Board of Farm Organ- izations has purchased for $60,000 the property 1731 I street. Washington, D. C., from the estate of William A. Slater. s The house, which will be the head- quarters of the organization in Wash- ington pending the erection of " & s to national temple of agriculture, serve as . permanent home for the accredited representatives of the various farm ‘ organizations of the United States. Former ners of this property be- sides Mrs. W. A. Slater, the present occupant, include a sister of August Belmont and three cabinet officers— Freylinhuysen, secretary of state dur- ing President Arthur’s term of office; Postmaster General John A. Wanama- ker, in the Harrison cabinet and Will- iam C. Whitney, secretary of the navy during the Cleveland administration. The house has more than thirty rooms. A special feature is the sky-lighted ballroom. capable of seating more than 200 people. Plans have been made to equip the library with a wealth of agricultural, organization and co-operative litera- ture to be used by the board and its friends. < % The next conference of the board is expected to be held about the middle of September, at which time the board will have acquired possession and have installed a part of its furnisa- ings and office equipment.

Spend some time daily n the open air, take seven deep breaths each morning and night and get from any good druzgist a box of oil of korein capsulss; take cne after euch meal and one before retiring at night; also follow the other simple directions that come with the box. Weigh yourself once a week, so as to know just how fast you are losing weight, and don’t leave off ‘the treat- rient or even skip a single dose until you are down to nérmal. Oil of kerein is absolutely harmless, is pleasant to take and helps diges- tion. Even a few days' treatment has been reported to show a noticeable reduction in weight, the stcp becomes lighter, your work easier; a more buoyant, vivacious feeling takes pos- session of your whole body and mind. If you arc overstout you should give this ‘treatment a trial.” You are very likely to be surprised and delighted. Amaze your friends, too! HOME-MADE CIDER AND WINE RULED INTOXICATING Apples now. are on the bough, and| grapes are on the vine, in the Land of Steady Habits. The apples may be plucked from the bough and _the Brapes from the vine wnen the har: vesting season comes, but the cider’ mill and the wine press will produce only weak and .watery liquids under the law, says the New Haven Times-| Leader. H The proprietors of orchards and! vineyards are looking forward to the manufacture and sale of sweet cider, vinegar and grape juice, but not to ap- plejack or wine. An act concerning spirituous and intoxicating liquors, en- acted by the 1919 general assembly and approved on May 14, has defined fer- mented cider and all wines made in the state from grapes grown in the state as “spiritucus and Intoxicating,” so that the manufacturers thereof may manufacture only at their peril. H There wil be a lot of sweet cider made, nevertheless, according to early season prognostications, part be- cause the old England ta4 pple juice is expected to be increased than abated under prohibi- tion, and partly because cider v. is expected to bring a good pr the market. The apple crop will not be a big one, S0 far as the state board of agricul- ture can say today, perhavs not sreat- er than one-half the normal crop, be- cause of too much wet weather during the blossoming season. Windfalls of small apples already have becn large, | larger than in a number of .years past in_some s Since cider can be made from al- most any sort or size of apple—if the fruit be not too sweet—there is ex- pected to be no dearth of apples for | cider making. . But it will not be a hilarious harvest. Statistics on the apple erop will be issued within a few days by the state board of asriculture. TO MAKE WAR STAMPS PERMANENT INSTITUTION Following announcement received | this week from Carter Glass, secretary | of the treasury, to the effect that| hrift and war s be continued as a permanen tion in the governrhent's sy finance, plans have been mad | by Mrs. Richard M. Bissell. state di-| rector of government savings in Con-1 necticut, whereby all the war savings stamp work throughout the state will be arranged with a view to continu-; nce indefinitely. | The announcement of Secretary| Glass is considered of vital interest to | the several hundred thousands of sav-. institu em of | public | ers in Connecticut who now hold thrift! which is in the form of a referendum pear: | and war savings stamps and who real- | ize the value of saving small amounts of money at.rezular intervals and in-| vesting it in government securities.
