Veterans' of the world war, venera- ble heroes of the great confiict to ptamp out the rebellion, members of other patriotic societies, relatives, friends—the public at large, gathered et the Orpheum theatre Sunday aft- erpoon to pay a memorial tribute men who gave their lives in the recent g72at holocaust that claimed millions of human lives that civilization might sapvive.

The Webster boys were totally outclassed and at no stage of the game threatened their speedier oppo- nents. This defeat ties the two teams for the championship of the northern section of the Quinebaug Valley league and the deciding game is to be played at the Putnam High school gymna- sium at an early date. The winner of this same will then play the winner of the southern section, which will probably be the Putnam High school team. Putnam High school quintet leads | the southern section of the league, but with one more game to play, with Pilainfield at Putnam. There is liftle Joubt in the minds of ‘the Putnam team or its supporters that they can turn the trick and meet the northern section winner for the championship. The team has had an unusualy suc- cessful year filled with well -earned victories.

The commission has or- dered that the old rates be restored in Ansonia, with the exception of the meter rates for over 10,000 gallons quarterly for which the company . is authorized to fix a new and equita- ble rate. The company also was giv- en permission to apply to the com- | mission at the close of the fical year for the revision of its rates.

The | matter to be handléd here is rapidly passing the “talk” stage, which stage was_very necessary to awake sleep- ing agencies that have it in their pow- er to see that the public's side of the important question is heard before the ! proper. tribunal, but which never can ! be aroused to action until a perfect avalanche of “talk” begins to inter- fere with csmnolence or timidity or both. Mrs. Mary Ardelia‘ Wood, 94, wid- ow of Willlam Wood, died Saturday morning at the home of her son, By- ron Wood. Mrs. Wood was born in the town of Sterling, but had lived the greater part of her life in this town. Her husband has been dead many years.

Williams of Maple street, ie The County s” bulletin on the pruning. of - The grower should prune the first year wist’.lh;o a view of removing all dead | and diseased branches and thinning out the heads of the trees to such an extent as to produce vigorous young growth the following summer. The pruning should not be so severe that it results in the production of a large number of water sprouts disturbs the normal bearing of the tree. When the heads are very high some growers recommend that the larger branches be headed in about one-third their length; the resulting growth produces practically a néew head, which is closér to the ground. This method is called dehorning. It has proved successful in some cases, but the general opinion is that dehorning should not be prac- ticed. If a tree is in such condition as to require so severe treatment, it would be economy, as a rule, to pull the tree out by the roots rather than to try to renew it: or, in other words, if it is necessary to dehorn, the orch- ard is generally not worth renewing. The best time to rpune is in the spring, just before growth starts. The work may be done, however. at any time during the dormant season. The grower should plan to commence the work during the warm days of winter, so that he can complete it before the spring rush begins. 3 JEWETT CITY Jewett City neople were filled with sorrow Saturday morning when it be- came known that Mrs. Alta Clement, wife of F. H. P. Clement, superinten- dent of the public schools of Griswol and principal of the Riverside gram- mar school, had died during the night. | Mrs. Clement was ill less than a week. It was not believed that her illness | was such as to- cause apprehension until suddenly at the last conditions came that were entirely baffling to medical skill. Mrs. Clement was the daughter of Mr. and _Mrs. Marshall Badger of Manchester, N. H., and was | born in that city Feb. 11, 1893. She and Mr. Clement were the children of | neighbors and were youthful play- mates. They were married five years ago and have lived here nearly three years, in which short time both have | made friends of everyone whom they have met, Mrs. Clement was a lova- graeious woman, an acquisition to | any community, a friend whom to lose is the cause for a sorrow not soon to ! be healed. She was an only child and is survived by her parents, her hus- bard and a daughter, Vireinia, 3 years a member of Dortas 2’s Daughters, the La- the Congregational churclh C. E.. The dy was taken € morning w home in Manchester, N. H. where the funeral will be held. Mr. Clement, who js ill. was not able to go.

Fresh snow was needed because the mountaincus drifts piled all about were getting a bit soiled. Sunday morning everything shone | glistening wkhite and clean again. It is a matter har to~be estimated with any degree of accuracy, the mil- lions of tons of snow and ice that cover the big Quinebaug watershed in ibis section to the depth of over two feet. Practically the same conditions exist here today as did in the memor vie February of 1886, when Jewett City was devastated by the zreat flood of Saturday, Feb. 13th. Heavy ice cov- | ered the lakes and streams, with more than two feet of snow., Three days of warm rain did the business, and such a volumie of water was never turned | into the Quinebaug valley in so short a tjme before nor since that date. There are several favorable conditions now which would tend to make an- other such flood unlikely. The Slater aid Ashland dams, which were carried away at that time, are new now and ould stand under twice the strain. Again, Aspinook dam has been con- structed and reinforced since then. The pond, which flows back three tmiles, is covered with 30-inch ice, but it cannot now move out all at once under the pressure of high water as it used to do in the river.

There was no trolley service north be- tween 7 and after 10. Many Jewett City neople were marooned at Taft- ville station for more than two hours. Local auto liveries made trips to Taft- ville in a blinding snow storm and brought people to Jewett City. The hold-up was caused by trouble be- tween this place and Plainfield. Rey. Prentice A.
