As the matter stood at that tinie tho Eufopean war in full swing. Conditions were abnormal. It was stated at that time that the state highway department wotld contribute $10,000 towards the improvement. Ev- erything had to yield to thé pressure of war nieeds and éven the atthorities at Whashington ordered curtailment of any improvements not absolute néc- essary to war needs. The work was held up until the cufrént year. On account of the abnormal condi- tions. the appreptriation made at that time was not sufficient .to cover the cost of the werk.

The admiralty had not yet de- cided to adopt the convoy system, but there was every intention of giving it a falr and thorough trial. On May 20, that first convoy arrived at its Eng- lish destination in perfect condition. ; That eonvoy Wwas & practical appli- cation of the multiple unit ship idea, the same as all “Compact Convoys,” | are, The multiple unit ship, is a theo- tical type of ship built of ships. e “Compact Convoy” is a good ap- CHRISTMAS SEALS DRIVE TO RAISE $3,000 HERE The Norwich committee in charge of the sale of the Christmas seals for the benefit of the anti-tuberculosis cam- paign. of which Dr. H.
