TATE ROAD BUILDERS WILL USE ARMY STOVES Connecticut road-building gangs are to eat “chuck” cooked on army stoves left over from the great war. The state highway department was informed that there were 3,000 fleld ranges available from surplug war de- partment stock for use gratis by the highway departments of the country, ing that the Connecticut department was entitled to twemty-one. “Well i!ake our full allotment,” replied the | Connecticut department.. Construction }gangs have to eat, and heretofore the rations have been cooked on second- hand ranges which may not always have been all that could be desired. Twenty-eight other states have tak- en advantage of this opportunity to zet free ranges in this way, according 1o a statement published by the war department. The director of sales hag authorized ~the shipment of 1,500 ranges. Connecticut's allotment has not_yet arrived. v “We have not seen these ranges. bhut we believe they will be adapted to commissary use in our shanties,” said Highway Commissioner Charles {J. Bennett, ‘We are ercouraged by pur experi- ence with the automobile trucks allot- lted us by the government. They have {been worth a lot of money to us this winter, and We are using them now extensively for plowing snow.. It is .true that we had poorer luck with the few passenger cars that were sent jto us. They were in rather bad con- dition, though by taking them apart and patching them together we were sometimes able to make one good Ford out of three or four which were partially worn out. “If the ranges are what we expect we will ser them up in the construc- tion camps., We have a number of such camps during good weather; I belleve the only one now open is at Scotland. There are others recently closeq at Eastford, Mansfield, Cole- brook and Nerth Canaan.” GRANDMARCH LED BY LITTLE BRIDE AND GROOM A little bride and zroom who led the grand march were cunning fea- tures of a pretty afternoon masque- rade given Friday at the Chamber of Commerce hall by the afternaon dane- ing clags-of Mrs. William Ballantyne Penfield.
