Norwich Bulletin, Willimantic Of- fice, 28 Church St. Telephone 105, s What Is Going On Tonight. Knights of Pythias. Natchaug lod No. 22, meets in 1. O, O. ¥. hall. L Clayton Emerson Hope, son of Mrs. George Hope of 394 Pleasant street, who has been missing myster- iously sinee he received his honera- ble discharge from the army May 18, was found Saturday, work! on a farm in th Norwalk. H.m-iu that home but gave no explanation of his strange conduct. He did not return home either Saturday or Sunday and his family has had no direct word from ~'him. Ome of his two sisters smilingly stated Sundav afternoon that perhaps he had forgotten the way home. The H.?- family, comprising Mrs. Hope and her two daughters. lives in the lower part of a two-apartment house at_39%¢ Pleasant street. Young Hope is 21 years old and was born in Hanover. He enlisted in the aymy at a New York eity recrnit- ing station in January. 1917, and was overseas for about two years with the ~balloon cervice. He arrived in this country frem overseas May 3 and was discharged from Camp Upton May 19. Between May 10 and Saturday he seemed to have dropped off the face of the earth. When his personal ef- ~feets arrived home and he did not appear, his mother became worried and took the matter up with the war department. Col. Arthur Woods. as- sistant to the secretary of war, took -the matter in hand and in an effort .t find the boy inaugurated a public- ity campaign which covered all of seuthern New England. The hospi- tals and camps near jNew York were searched and a carefyl watch of the records of the New England recruit- ing_stations was kepf. but no trace of Hartford could be found. When challenged with bis identity at South Norwalk he frankly admitted that he was the man sought fer and stated that he was zoing to return to his_home Saturd. He has been working in Norwalk for about a_week on the farm of Washington Hawhurst, a farmer in the Chestnut Hill distriet of Norwalk. Before enlisting in the | apmy Hone worked in a Norwalk manufacturing plant for some time.

It was alse decided to enter a decorated automobile in the Welcome Home parade on August 16. Miss Agnes Nelligan was ~appointed as chairman with power to name her own assistants. The meeting ad- journed at $.15. The Willimantic team won the sec- ond consecutive game Sunday after- noon at Recreation Park when they defeated a team from Glastonbury 3 to 1. Execept for a bad start by the visiting team, in which Pitcher Far- rell figured largely, but not brilliantly, the game would probably have gone into extra innings. It looked as if Providence was out to vent its disap- proval of Sunday ball for there were heavy casuaities. _Archie Hamel caught one of Farrell's shoots behind thy, ear and for the succeeding few minutes didn’t know whether he was playing baseball or taking a stroll un- der a starry—very starry--sky.

Danielson iz now without train service, in either diree- tlon from 10 o'clock in the morning until 6.15 at night a period of more than eight eonsecutive hours. There has been interest in this sec- tion jn the ecase of Private Clayton Emerson Hope, of Willimantic, who served in the $9th Balloon eompany and who disappeared sinee his_dis- charge from service. Private Hope was honorably discharged from ser- vice on May 19. but nothing has heen heard of this 21 year old youth since the day he signed out of thé army. Just before being musiered out Hope wrote, it is known. of his intention to come for a #isit with relatives in Cen- tral Village. bui he never came there. As told elsewhere in The Bulletin. he was found working on a South Nor- walk farm Saturday. Funeral services for Andrew Jack- son Paine were held at his home at Foster Cented, Rev. S. 8.

Tuesday evening will bring the end of the second week of the strike, old story with the public. There is nothing new in the situation here ex- cept the growing resentment of the public over being deprived of service during the time of year when it can be used with the most satisfaction. The strike is an injury to business as well as an inconvenience and printing of the remarke that ome hears ahout the town each day pertaining to the strike, would epoil the cireulation chances of a modest family news per! in the town court Saturday morning, Judge W. F. Woodward sentenced Will m Whitehead. 19. to serve 60 days in jail, on a charge of being an idle person and to a fine of $50. plus costs of vrosecution of $29, on a charge of boarding a freight car of the New Ha- ven road. Harold Sipples, charged with bhoard- ing a freight car. was placed on pro- bation for a period of six months. The young men were taken into cus- todya in New London. If the coal shortage, that Daniel- son people are being constantly warn- ed will be experienced here next win- ter, comes to pass. it will mean an- other boom for the cord wood bus- iness. such as was known here dur- ing the winter of 1917-18. when even the manufacturing concerns were forced to buy wood to keep fire un- der their boilers. No great amount of hard coal is coming into Danielson, and orders that were placed months ago by retail buyers here in many cases remain unfilled. Winter weath- er is imany weeks away yet. but not so distant as to offset all the worry of those who need fuel for their homes when it does come. “No more army service for me,” was the slogan of numbers of Killingly boys as they came home after doing duty in the world war, but the pros- {pect of fighting on the Mexican bor- der has chanzed all that. Already many of those who said they were done with soldiering are pricking up their ears and there seems no doubt at all that they will be off for a re- cruiting stataion the first minhute that Uncle Sam decides the time has ar- rived to clean up thinge across the border. The public service vehicle men did the best business Saturday that they have any day since the trolley strike was inaugurated, Baturday the best shopping day of the week was with- out rain and buyvers who have been kept away from here for two weeks flocked in_ from all directions. Regu- lar motor bus service was being main- tained all day and until late at night between this place and Elmville, Day- ville, Goodyear, Putnam, Wauregan and Central Village, with the regular line to Brooklyn also doing business.

The beginning of the collection of a tax of one cent on each dance ticket sold at Wildwood Park Saturday eve- nings started what many of the dan- cers afterwards described as a strike. This undoubtedly was due to a mis- understanding. Marager P. J. Sher- idan said Sunday afternoon that he had been advised by internal revenue collectors that he must begin at once collecting a cent tax on each ticket seld. This fact did not seem to be rightly taken by the crowd though Mr. Sheridan tried to make it very clear that it was not his wish nor any ben- efit to him to coliect the extra cent which he must do hereafter or be sub- ject to prosecution by the federal au- thorities. = William Lacroix of Moosup and Earle Gay of this town, will be in the town % 4 to . to the Willimantic, Cenn. | COUFt this morping to, answer o of | seeing them, somewhere between Wor family cemetery at Greeneville, R.

The snapping of a heavy steel cable whick was anchered in the mill building caused the derriek shaft, nearly 70 feet high, te sway and start its fall, and a warning sheut went up as the force of men in the danger zone started to rum for th lives. Shaw and Claney got into di- rect line of danger and though the Zreat derrick toppled quite slowly, it afterwards was said, they did t seem able to save themselves and were struck as the derrick crashed into the rocks on the riverbank. The derrick was in use at the time it fell. Shaw and Clancy were emploved by the H. Wales Lines company of Meri- den, which has charge of the work be- ing done. Shaw leaves his wife and four children. R in these arid days of prohibitien it does not seem safe to take a drink of anything not passed upon and thor- oughly censored as to its intoxicating qualities. Adoiph Bayart, a native of France, who has been two years in Uncle Sam’s army, and Wwho was twice wounded while fighting with the A. B. . over there, and Louis Vandersproul, a Beigiap, for many years a resident of this counrty and elaiming Philedel- phia as his home, were before Judge M. H. Geissler in the city court Satur- day morning. Bayart and Vandersproul have been visiting mutual friends in Lawrence, They left that city Friday evenin, Bayart en route to Army Base hospi- tal No. 3 at Rahway, N. J., Vander- sproul for his home in Philadeiphia. They admitted being joved up a bit when starting out on their journey byt not overmuch so, and got along very nicely until the conductor on the southbound State of Maine express, en route from Worcester to New York, asked them for thelr tickets. ‘Now, Bayart and Vandersproul set up, they had two perfectly goad tickets to take them to their destination when they left Lawrence, but for the life of them could not locate the said tickets when that conductor insisted upon- cester and Putnam, which was the third leg of their journey. o conductor was an unsympa- e d_had them removed from the train when it reached this 5 small hours of BSaturday ‘s and they were taken into custody by the police and locked up at the police station.

He had found art’s ticket in his (Vandersproul's) shoe and also a train check for his own {icket, probably is- sued to him by the conductor on the train- which the men used in getting from Boston to Worcestsr. There being no evidence offered that the men were guilty of the charges filed against them, Judge Geissler or- dered the men discharged from cus- tody. and Pavart and Vandersproul greeted this announcement with an expression of glee that approached the u-la-la state of happiness. Then the thought seemed to occur to them that they were both dead broke, and they begam to complain over the misfortune that had befallen them. Vandersproul even could draw no consolation from his cherished vio- lin, which he had in a bag amid a est- ting of string beans, which he was taking to his dear wife down In Philly. Both Bayart and Vandersproul were intelligent men. Bayart has not vet recovered from two severe wounds. in arm and leg, that he received while fighting as an American soldier in the war. Nearly haif a hundred children gath- ered at the Day Kimball hospital Sat- urday morning to attend a clinic 3t which operationsg,for the removal of tonsils and adenSids were to be per- formed by Dr. Harold Foster of New York. Physicians, nurses, parents and patients were present in such numbers as to indicate to any casual observer who might be passing that there was something big going on at the insti- tution. The children that came for operations were representative of Put- nam, Danielson and a number of other towns in this vieinity. Friends here of Charles K, Shaw, now of Pawtucket, have been watch- ing with interest the past week his play in the tennis tournament at Longwood, where the XNew England section games of the national tennis tournament were being run off. Sat- urday’s papers told of Shaw's victory on Friday over L. B. Rice of Yale, the scores being 2-6, 6-4, 7-5, 6-2. In this fourth round of play, he having de- feated three other players during the weck, Shaw put himself in line for the semi-finals. Victory in the finals at Longwood would place him in line to be a contestant in the national match- es. attempting the trai r. Shaw is well known In this city, which was his home for vears while he was assoclated with what is now the H. K. H. Silk company. He is one of the very best players in Rhode Island and was the premier plaver of this vicinity while llving in Putnam. The summer sessions being held on five days of the week at the Israel Putnam school are proving very pop- ular. Principal Hammond said Sat- urday morning that the attendance is averaging about 78, and the chilaren are very interested.” The principal has found from time to time in going about the building that some of the pupils attending were doing so not be- cause they want to make up lost time or to improve thetr standing. but for the pleasure of studying and learning, This s the spirit just the reverse pf that displaved by the truant and is re- garded as indicative of a thirst for knowledge that is bound to pay big dividends in the future. Strung across Main street at the Union block is as fine a Welcome Home banner as Is to he found in any New England city. and many proclaim it the best they have seen anywhere.

Lock, who died recemtly at his home on Killingly avenue. Rev. Adelard Lacreix, 30, died Sun- day morning at 2.30 at the e of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Narcisse Lacroix on Maynard street, Putnam. Father Lacroix was ordained to the priesthood during the Christmas sea- son of 1917 and came here to ocels- brate his first mass at St. Mary's on the morning of the holiday. Soon af- terwards he was assigned to St. Mary's church, Baltic, and had been a curate there only a few months when his health broke down and he was obliged to go to Saranac Lake. His stay there did not prove as bemefi- cial as was expected and he came to his home here in ~February, since which time his health has gradually failed. Father Lac’™x was born in Putnam and received his early education at St. Mary's parochial school. Later he studied at St Thomas Seminary at Hartford and his theological course wag taken at the Grand Semipary. at Montreal. He leaves his parents and a sister, Miss Laura Lacroix. Father Lacroix® was noted among his associates for his priestly zeal and devotion to the ideals of his high calling. During the brief period when his health permitted he did most faithful work in the Baltic parish and both by example d preaching won the affectionate veneration of those among whom he labored. Extra passenger trains were run again Saturday on the New' Haven, but the road’s failure to give due an- nouncement in advance of the service probably cut down the business far below what it might other wice have been out of this city, and into it, for that matter. Edward H. Crocker of Hartford, for- merly of this city, who has been making a collection of photograph concerning the various war activities in Hartford, and particularly in refer- ence to the work of the draft boards of the state, at the Hall of Records. has been authorized by the Hartford war bureau te procure a suitable rep- resentative collection of photographs illustrating work in connection with the war accomplished in the city of Hartford. e s raotary Leonard H. Healey of . u:l.: board of agriculture is in accord with the recent statement made by Deputy Dairy Commissioner H. O. Danieis of the remarkable decrease in the number of milch cows in the state. Mr. Daniels said the number of milch cows in the state at the presemt time was about 20,000 fewer than it was & aratively short time since. ecretary Healey added that general agriculture is being abandoned in Con- necticut and throughout New England now more than ever. The farmers find that they cannot afford to pay for the work on their farms and thev discon- tinue the cultivation of their land. They confine their operations to the raising of food for their own use. Mr. Healey-said that did not merely apply to men who have lived by farming but to city people who ran farms as ap- purtenances to their eountry homes. These city people cultivate just enough for their table needs. Secretary Healey further said tHat in coming into Hartford from his home in Woodstock he was surprised to see the mumber of places that were unoc- cupied. He added that he had just heard from an acquaintance who has recently made a tour of Maine, New Hampshire and Massachusetts, and ibat similar conditions were noticed in_those states. “It is not that the farms are ahan- doned, but that the owners find that it does not pay to work them,” said Sec- retary Healey. He added that the con- dition of farming and milk producing in New England was becoming a seri- ous problem for the owners of farms. Only those who have sonk who are able to assist in the work of operating the farm ran hope to continue to op- erate farms at a fair profit, that is, a profit which will give them a living. fornish in sizes te suit roeme and climatic eonditions, No. 1 Sige IDEAL-Arcsla with 108 oq. ft. of Redistion § 84 “« g w - “« 189 @ # “ 106 .3« - “ 200 - “ iss O, ‘TR - ¢ 250 hd bis 148 “ 5« - * 300 = - 171 Prices glso include Expansion Tank and Drain Valve.
