Mr. Trick did not con- hat the form of government was down hy God, but the fact commits to men the govern- ations and that the princi- man government is enunci- jod, namely, “Who 5o shed- th man’s bigod by man shall his blood ' When Cain killed his brother was protected by a peculiar t mark lest some one should | slay him in snge for his brother. Now man is committed to his fellows for justice in case of the greatest erime possible, surely these who cx- ercise the ter flnctions. on the plain of e are not denied the ative on the plain of the same lesger crimes.

He has giv- world principle of justice in the Men may argue the advisa- capital punishment but no person who accepts the Bible can dis- pute the right of the nations to take the life of a man. The sense of jus- tice is inherent in the human con- science the extent of justice is found in:the command of God. This extent of human government is not a privilege only but a command. Blood for blood is the divine order in human relations, Life, the most sacred pos- session of man, is forfeited when one takes the life of another man, Sunday morning Rev. Mr. Trick exchanged pulpits with Rev. George H. Strouse of the First Baptist church, TAFTVILLE Many people of this village were saddened to hear of the death of Miss mma Frohmander, the youngest daughter of John and Margaret Froh- mander, who passed away =~ Friday night after an fllness of seven months. The deceased was born in Taftvilie 19 years ago and has lived here all hor. life. Besides leaving her father -and mother, she leaves two brothers, John and Andrew; and one sister, Annie, all of this village. The deceased was a great lover of outdper sports and was. well liked and a great faverite.in and about the village. The Taftville Pinochle club held a smoker Sunday afternoon, the meeting being postponed until the first Sunday of the month. A special meeting of the committee for the annual ball of Ponemah eoun- cil, K. of C, which was recently post- voned on account of the epidemic of influenza, was largely attended, Plans were made to hold the ball en the first part of the month of April and com- mittees were reappointed for decora- tions, printing, ete. ome of the local boys tried their ;;11 in gkiing last Satyrday on Church Hill.

STATION Alexander Pasnik, who was in Willi- mantic on Saturday did ‘not arrive home until seven o'clock Sunday morning. after having spent the night in the depot in that city waiting for the Central Vermont train that was due in Norwich about mime o'elock Saturday night. The train was ten hours’ late, having had to fight big drifts all the way from Brattleboro to Norwich: Diamonds have been discovered in the Gold Coast colony of Africa. The largest weigh a caret. is the lowest number of calls received Dby the local fire department in any one February during the past twelve years, and goes to show what can be accomplished by the public along fire prevention lines; Considering the fact that the streets have been filled with ice and snow the greater part of the month, and have, in many cases, been almost impassable, especially for heavy fire apparatus, Norwich has been ynusually fogtunate this year. Chief Stanton said Sunday night that ho Hoped the pablic will Goncine 10 exercise an active interest in fire pre- vention as /it’ means fewer fires and smaller losses. In February of last year there were nineteen alarms, ever th: many as there were in February this year and the year previous there were eighteen calls in February. The following table shows the number of calls during the month of February for the past twelve years: Month Year February 1920 [ February 1919 19 February 1918 18 February 1917 15 experienced in years past have occur- ved during the month of February.

The mercury was 15 below ze- ro and several of the firemen were frozen to the ladders. In February. 1900, the Hopkins and Allen's pistol and gun shop burned down and it was the thermometer at 10 below, that the alarm was turned in for the Potter fire &n Thames street. The Shannon Building confiagration happened on the night of February 9, 1908. The date of the Franklin hall fire was Feb- ruary 20, 1913. There were three good sized fires during February of 1914.
