She was accompanied by Miss Mary Gray. The. solo was greauw yed. , After the prayer, F. Bailey of Norwich Town delivered 3 heart- to-heart message on the unpopular apostle, Judas. He told the story of Judas from his call to apostleship to the time he betrayed his Master with a kiss, ang how he at last'went out and hanged himself. The speaker told the story in a very interesting manner, and drew from it a number of lessons we should learn. He sug- gosted -tial Judas at first was prob- bir a good man, but that he became avaricious and. learned to love money for money’s sake; that he even eriti- cised Marv for using costly ointment on the Master's feet, largely because ::‘wwted to get the money ip his The speaker asked the men if they were cheosing the best things, or the things that were not the best.

This action was the result of a meeting at the Allyn house in Hart- | ford last week, attended by county | commissioner - chairmen from all over the state, where long consideration was given to the opinion:rendered by Lawyers T. F. Carmody of Waterhurs, Elmore §. Banks of Fairfield, and Ar- thur M. Brown of Norwich, to the ef- fect that ho'dérs of lquor licenses were entitled to a refund only from the date of surrender of the license to date of expiration, Most of the. commissioners believe the dealers: are entitled to a refund from June 30, 1919, anq their opinion ig shared by a majority of citizens, it is believed, but as there is a legal Question looming up as. an obstacle the commissioners thought best to adopt the following resolution: That inasmuch as the County Com- missioners' association find that it is impractical to carry into ‘effect the provisions of charter 164 of the gen- eral statutes of 1919, be it resolved, That inasmuch as the county com- missionersof Connectictit belicve that rebates on all liquor licenses should be refunded from June 30, 1919, agree- able t6 the federal prohibition law to the date of expiration, believing it was the intent of the legislature of 1919, t6 refund for the entire unex- pired perlod, and that action by the 1 you MM\MLMMW andlron'l'omc,mllhdpyw.
