Their work is not done, although they have achiév- ed national prohibition and our friends are urged to attend that meet- ing and learn of the various lines of . work, aside from total abstinence.

U. people say The city jail at Covington, Ky., has been ordered closed because of lack of prisoners. Atlantic City jail is empty. One arrest has been made since Jan. 15 and that was for viola- tion of a municipal law. The jail Pop- ulation of Massachusetts is rapidly vanishing so that county jailsat Low- ell, Taunton, Newburyport and Fitch- burg have been ordered closed. The house surgeon of the Charity hospi- tal, New Orleans, says ‘Prohibition has.lmproved conditiong wonderfully. Accidents are not only reduced in number, but in seriousness.” Ken- tucky Medical Association has de- cided “that vigorous action will be taken in the United States court by the health board to prosecute all vio- lators of the law relating. to prescrib- ing of whiskey by physicians of the state. Thellaw gives the state board of health power to revoke the license of any practitioner found guilty of violating it.” Wonder how it would work in Conneoticut? $ BROADWAY HILL RUTS - BOTHER AUTO DRIVERS Local motorists who have occasion to drive over Broadway hill. are roundly censuring the weatherman, the ice and snow and any others who are in any way responsible for the con- dition of the thoroughfare. There are seven ruts running from top to bottom on the hill and these same ruts vary in'depth from anywhere between three to six inches.' An automobile which chances to get into one of these, and it is impossible to keep out of them, must follow where it leads regardless ing in the. opposite direction may be occupying the same ruts. Some of | the motorists going over the hill on Tuesday were forced to back down the hill to allow a fellow companion in misery to pass. One of the mo- torists suggested that a liberal amount of sand sprinkled on the hill would be a partial solution of the difficulty but that the application of pick and shovel would practically remedy the situation. DEER RESCUED FROM RIVER ADDED TO PARK HERD A large doe has been added to the herd of deer at Mohegan park, being brought here from New London on Tuesday. The animal was captured in an exhausted condition by em- ployes of the T. A. Scott company af- ter she had swam across New Lon- don harbor. The animal had appar- ently been scared out of the woods on the Groton side and had taken to the river, preferring to brave the icy waters rather. than be captured. The Scott people -immediately after cap- turing the animal secured the ser- vices of a veterinary who revived the deer. The Scott company i the park board and offered to bring the animal to Mohegan park. The board accepted the offer and is very appreciative of the interest shown by the' New London company in giving the animal to the park and bringing it here in ‘their motor truck. C. L. U.
