Sev- sites are under consideration, howev- or. The digging out of drains in prep- ardtion for the thaw that is bound to come sooner or later is giving the men engaged upon the work a real | task, Some of the drains have a |r:ovemu of from four to six inches of {ice which has to be chopped and pick- 1ed away. | 'Presentation of certificates of honor from the French government e Leo J.

Killingly has fittingly honored its returned he- roes. Now comes the time to pay solemn tribute to those who died that civilization might live. The programme at the theater as arranged provides that all patriotic organizations of Killingly be invited. The - exercises will open with an orchestra selection and wlil be fol- lowed by an address of welcome de- livered probably by Commander Ira A. Warren of ieo J. L'Homme post.

Something over 30 appeals from as- sessment valuation figured by the Roard of assessors have been received by the members of the board of relief for Killingly. This is a gratifying small number in view of the fact that 200 owners of property asgessments materially in- revaluation work re- of out Thursday, forces engaged in digging have been closed to use 2 a week.
