But school of the United + Congregational church, Miss Margaret Slatiery = of Boston; addressed an -gudience of 800 at the United Congrégational church Tuesday evening on the topic, Stars in the World’s Night, into which she put . a ecall for greater efficiency in chureh work. The lecture, Which ‘was ‘the hurch school's contribution to the communi- ty, was made possible-through the ef- forts of Mrs. Arthur L. -Peale. Miss Slattery, who is well known throughout Connecticut, spent part of ‘last winter and all of Jast spring in traveling through the war countries of Europe. She left the Lnxted States early in January and returned late in June. And during this time she,vis- ited the battlefields of Belgium, France and Ttaly. She stood on grofind over which some of the fiercest and great- est struggles of the war swayed bgcl and forth for days at a time, finally resulting in victory “for " the allied armies. The service opened with a hymn aft- er which H. W. Gallup, superintendent of the Sunday school, who presided, offered a short prayer, all joining in the Lord's prayer. Then came an an- them by the choir and a prayer by Rev. Alexander H: Abott, pastor of the church. & Miss Slattery was introduced by Mr. Gallup. Announcing as her topic, Stars in the World’s Night, Miss Slat- tery said: Always .in the world’s night there have been starg. Vhen [ take for my subject Stars in the World’s Night, I want to take those stars -and make them live. It takes courage to look at the world. It is only in the past few years that women have dared to look at the world. T love youth full of strength and cour- age. [t is great to be fifteen and to be alive tonight.

They are over forty. © A while ago I went to a great con- vention of boys in their teens. They had a banquet and to enliven the con- versation at the banquet table I said, “The time will come when we will go to conventions by aeroplane.” Imme- diately the boys were interested. It appeared quite probable to them and many were the ideas advanced as to how the aeroplanes. would land and where they would “park.” A short while later in Canada 7 at- tended an editorial convention, editors of church and relfgious mgazines, all over forty. I.wanted to see how the aeroplane story. would be received by them. And sq Lremarked that at the next convertion/ four years hence, we would probably go hy aeroplane. They looked' at me as if to say, Dees she think she is funny?’ Is it a joke? There was not a smile. Later in the course of the banauet one of the gen- tlemen leaned over and said. “About that aeroplane. Tt is fascinating, very interesting. But aeroplanes will never become practical.

The $3,000 damage suit breught in November, 1916, by Anna Hyder of Springfield, Mass., against Albert W. Avery of Montville, has been settled and withdrawn from the - superior court, Notice of the withdrawal has been filed With the superior court clerk, The suit was brought as the result of an automobile accident. On Sept. 28, 1915, the plaintiff, who is the wife of Monsour J.

What - shall I give to So and So this year? is the question that is foremost in the minds o fyoung and old. Several conversa- tions overheard recently in the village show how the general thought is turn- ing. The following took place in the posteffice: “Hello,” Elizabeth. Gat all your Christmas. presents bought?” “Yep, il byt one for Charlie. He's so hard to plegse I really don’t know what to get him. T've bad lots of ideas but they are either so expensive or some of his folks are going to give the same thing.

It is proper to add says the bank's statement, in contemplating these huge figures of our foreign trade, the larzest ever recorded, that “2ll is not gold that zlitters” Much of this increase is due o higher prices, though there is un- doubtedly a very material increase in of those girls has a single male rela- tive left.

In her tour of the allied war coun- tries and battlefields, Miss Slattery said she saw miles and miles of fruif trees cut down to within a foot of the ground and hill sides and farms full 'of shell holes. Only prevention, said Miss Slattery, can make possible a programme that shall make recon- struction unnecessary in another day. America must begin to believe and to say that the most important thing is the making of men. The problem of today is not problems of things; it is a problem of men. Miss Slattery said that she knows of only about ten“thurches in Amer- ica that are working at 100 per cent. Some are working at 75 per cent., some at 50 per cent., and some have crawled up to 10 per cent. from near- ly zero.

The service closed with a hymn, He Leadeth Me, and the benediction was Our 1919 Trade Makes New High Record. 4 The foreign commerce of the United States will make a new high record in the year which ends with this month. The grand total of importe and exports in 1919, according to “an estimate by The National City Bank of New York, will be fully ten and one- haif billion dollars against a little over nine billions in 1918 and 1917, less than eight billions in 1916 and slightly less than four billions in the year imme- diately preceding the war, 1914, Thus the trade of 1919 will exceed by more than a billion dollars that of “any earlier calendar year and will be two and one-half times as great as imme- diately preceding the war. This increase occurs in both imports and exports. Grand total'of imports for ports. The grand total of imports for the current year will exceed $3,750,000,~ 000 and the exports approximately $6,.- 000,000,000. These figures, says the Bank’s state- ment, are all the more gratifying when we realize that the increase in exports occurs largely in' manufactures, thus assuring labor of its participation in Sweets and Whitman Chocoluel at ] auantities, ‘especially of manufactures. Prices of a very large proportion of the merchandise forming the foreien trade of the country, whether imports -or exports, are doyble those of the cal- endar year preceding t'e: war, when our total trade was Jess than four and pronounced by Rev. Mr. Abbott. The general committee of arrange- ments for the evening comprised Mrs. Arthur L. Peale, Mrs. William H. Daw- ley, Mrs. Herbert W. Gallup and Mrs. Emil M. Fox.

We had scarcely dared to hope that the tremendous increase in exports of man- ufactures which occurred during the one-half billion dollars as against an estimated ten and one-half billion dol- lars for the current year. Still another factor in the high figures of imports lies in the fact that the import figures, which are those of the valuation ef the countries from which drawn, were ae- cepted until recently at the nominal or face valuation in the currency of ‘the country from which the merchandise was imported, though the over-valua-' tion thus created will not seriously af- fect the grand total, since the imports from EurSpe where most of the depre- ciation in currency occurs form' ‘less than 20 per cent. of the total imports of the current year.

Newbury, son of Ernest Newbury of Maple Court, had a nar- row escape from serious injury on Tuesday morning about $.45 o'clock when the two-horse Standard Oil wa- {i gon which he was driving was struck by a Shore Line Electric troiley car at the foot of the hill near the city line in Thamesville. Mr, Newbury was driving the oil wagon down the hill and when about half way down an automobile forced him to drive into the tracks. The trolley car, headed for New London, was a short distance behind. The motorman blew his whistle but Mr. Newbury, owing to the ruts in the road, was unable to clear the tracks and the next moment the trolley car crashed into the rear of the wagon. Mr. Newbury was thrown off the wa- gon, but beyond a few bruises, es- lcaped injury. The oil wagonwas overturned and badly damaged.. The horses were cut and bruised. The tro)- ley car sustained considerable dam- age to the front end. The car was in charge of Motorman Faufaw and Con- ductor Krunn. The motorman claim- ed that the brakes failed to hold when he applied them to check his car to avoid the smashup. 3 GUARANTORS WILL MEET Baby, For Children and For FURS FOR ing Coney, Narobia, Wolf, Fox, Lynx, Red GIFTS Etc.—Price range $8.50 to $150. ——metk@ewmofdulcomfort virtues to recommend them as gifts.
