RED PINE REPLAGING CHESTNUT SAVS FILLEY It is surprising how little the av- evareg person realizeés the extentT ‘&‘71 e thought of as_an But a forestry map, such as was thrown on the screen during the illustrated lecture by State Forester W. O. Filley of New Haven, in Slater hall, Wed- nesday evening under the auspices ot the Norwich Art Students’ Assoc shows that - approximately state is generally wood land and brush land. The lecture was held in connection with the regular monthly meeting of 32 30.20 | the Art Students’ Association, the bus- iness session, which was brief, pre- 30 30.30 | ceding the talk. which proved very in- teresting to all present. A numbet of handsome slides, quite a number of which were colored, were thrown the screen, showing sections of the various state ‘parks and forest areas in the state and showing the remarkable progréss being made b: the state forester and his assistants in preserving and building up the state’s woodlands. In the course of his 'lecture Mr. Filley said that a few years ago the chestnut tree was the most important tree in the state. He showed a picture of a group of chestnut trees in a Con- necticut forest' section. They were in their natural state, crowded closely. This close growth causes them to shoot up straight and high, the lower branches dying off, leaving only the branches near the top. Chestnut tree growing in this way make better lum- by er. But the chestnut tree is fast dis- appearing because of the chestnut blight and so it has become necessary to look for another variety of tree for state forestry work. Included in the lides shown were pine forest speci- mens in the town of Union. Scotch pine, mine years old, an example of the growth of white pine from seed, natural seeding of pine on old pastures where -the seed has biown in and a thick growth started and other scen- es equally interesting. According to Mr. Filley. red pine is now being used for reforesteration work in this state. He told of a tract of waste land planted as an experi- ment about *twen: ears ago. The tract is now thickly ' covered with sturdy trees. In the past twenty vears five forests have been started by the state forester and Mr. Filley ex plained the location of these five for ests with the aid of a map slide. This slide also showed the - location of some twenty state parks which have heen started. Mr. Filley then took his audience on a picture trip through several of the parks, showing Mace- donia Park, Kent Falls and hills, and a number of beautiful spots to be found in other park: b The last sl own_was of a sec- tion of the De Hop Yard which the state rescued from the hands of a lumberman who had purchased the lumber rights and had started to cut own many of the beautiful trees. It expected. that the Devils Hop Yard will become a permanent state park. :After his lecture Mr. Filley answer- ed several questions concerning tree formation and growth. HEARING NEXT WEEK ON GROTON IRON WORKS The hearing on the application of Frederick Conlin and P. TeRoy Har- wood, receivers of. the Groton Iron works, for permission to sell the Noank and Groton yards of the com- e pan; so permission for them to en- ter s against the e Steamship company, the Steamship Operating company and _Charles W.

Attorneys Waller and Avery take v that members ymittee of cr sent this week and that they favored the granting of the petitions. Attorrey Hull did not oppose the petition for the right to sue the vari- ous Morse interests, but he did pro- test on the hearing of the petition for a sale of the yard on Friday of this week. Tudge Xellogg Hull’s request, and he intimated that this matter had been filed so late in the present term of court that it migh he impossibie for him to go into the wmatter at any great le h.

The infirmary is located on the Eagleville road, just west of Swan lake and is a one-story brick strue- ture. It is equipped with modern hos- pital furniture and has a large sun parlor. Miss Mary Driscoll, the college nurse, will have charge of the infirm- ary and Dr. Simonds of Williman- tic will make three calls a week and at any other time when his services may be needed. It is not expected that the new din- ing hall will be completed much before Easter as the construction company has been handicapped in the lack of finishing materials. As soon as tile for the floor and other material is re- ceivéd, work will be rushed in the hopes that the hall will be ready for the Easter recess. - Body Was Not Claimed The body of the man thought to be William Cullen, who died . at the Lawrence and Memerial Associated hospital in New London last Friday when he was brought- there from buried in the Potter’s field in Jordan Wednesday.

Dr. Sidney H. Carney, of New York, fi2ld secre- tary of the Red Cross, spoke in bes half of the Junior Red Cross work, the good they had done, and the much more they might do in the future. Dr. Carner vas introduced by Dr. J. H. Selden, chairman of the local branch, who' stated that the Norwich chools were all enrolled 100 per cent,, among the earliest of the Atlantic Di- vision to respond 'and that this year started with a.fine co-operation of teachers and scholars. Dr. Carney prefaced his remarks with eral tribute to all oversea ons, the Y. M. C. A,, Salva- v, Knights of Columbus, and all others who helped towards keeping up the American morale. He observ- ed that the war is by no means over, thought some people seem to think so. and that interest in the Red Cross must not be allowed -to die down. He criticized severely that ‘“tired feel- ing” which threatens to over come us, now that the armistice has been gign- ed and the Red Cross work may not seem as exciting as in war times, but there is plenty to be done. One of 2,500 Red Cross workers in Paris at the time of the armistice, Dr. v drew on his hospital expe ences in a most graphic way, telling pathetic stories bravery which had come under his own personal know dge. Suffering s ail in the day's rk, and each injured soldier endur- s terrible pain with splendid phil- 1d courage, teaching lessons finer than are preached from many a pulpit. There is a great work for the Ju- nior Red Cross to do, mothers and teachers must do their share to keep the coming generation interested. Boys nd girls sk Children should learn the love rvice early, as well as a healthy and reverence for their own bodies. There is always something to be done for the shut-ins, little kind- ly courtesies which train the youth- ful minds in the way of brotherhood.

Articles may be collected for a loan, or emergency closet, which will fur- h delicacies and practical things in time of need. Scrap books are need- ed; toys, rag dolls and puzzles are needed for the Albanian and Rouma- n children. It is desired that these ntain only American pictures cards, that the foreign ys and girls may obtain an idea of how their American friends live, and learn something about this great country. These books should meas- twelve inches, and net number more than twenty-five pages. | There has been a call from Wash ington for 10,000 scrap books, the At- é)n(mic Division's quota being about 2,- 00. At the Fox Hill Hospital, Staten Is- 1d, there are 1,600 wounded soldiers respect § land not enough afghans to go laround. This is a chanee for the | knitters to get bury and help. 1 . Dr. Carney made enthusiastic men- i ticn of the French, and the unselfish- yn of their own grief. They give | the graves of the American dead every {care, and no mother in America need | feel that her boy’s last resting place 1is neglected. 550! The cemeteries at So- s and Chateau Thierry are al- decorated with wild flowers.

NORWICH TOWN At the March meeting of the Men'u; league Monday evening in the First Congregational chapel a most inter- esting account of the story of John Leitch was given by Herbert L. Yer- ringlon The complete story is a gen- eca! review of the life of Mr. Leitch, one of the most interesting figures in this country today, having gone from poverty and obseufity to a position of nation-wide prominence. He is the new prophet in the world of industry, having introduced a mew plan of co- operation between employvers and their employes, called industrial democracy, which used in a score of more plarts. The story explains the sys- temn and tells some of the remarkable results it has brought about, of inter- est to every man and woman, as the great problem today is that of the re- lation between capital and labor, be- tween employers and employes. John Leitch is helping to solve the matter ! which directiy concerns every one of | Industrial democracy is the organ- ization of a factory or any other busi- ness concern into a little democratie state, with a representative govern- ment which makes its own laws and has the power to enforce them. The plan can be applied in a big organiza- ticn ‘or a small one. If the plant is ¢ the government is very much e that of this country. It has a house of representatives, a senate and a cabinet. The members of the house are elected by secret ballot by the whole body of workers. There is one representative for every 20 to 100 workers. The senate 15 not electiv it includes minor executives, depar ment heads, foremen—according to the organization. The cabinet is com- posed of the executive officers of the comrpany, with the president as chair- man. The house and the senate pass the laws. The cabinet has the power | of veto, but this power has rarely, 1f ever, been exercised. Questions of wages, piece rates, discharges or| grievances of any kind, as well as! ways and means of reducing costs, are handled by the house. As an illustra- tion of the good derived from indus- trial democracy, a certain manufae. turer stated to Mr. Leitch about two years ago that the savings of his plant the year previous were $80,000. It was after years of thinking, studylng and experimenting by Mr. Leitch that the par. of industrial democracy was finally worked out. « Mr. Leitch was born in Chicago in Avpril. 1868, and at the age of 10 wkas obliged to leave school and £o to work, ¢ Li¢ parents needed the little that he could earn, first in a shoe store, at $3 a week. He was the first one on duty in the morning, and had to eweep the store, clean the cuspidors, deliver shoes, and In every way make himself generally useful, not reaching home until 9 or 10 o'clock in the evening. At 18 he went work In the stock- yards as a nemploye of a commission house, working from 10 to 16 hours a day. most of the time driving cattle in muck and mire sometimes wp to his vnees. He remained here for a few years, during which time he sunported his father and mother. Mr. Leitch has stated that he did not regret the strenuous life 6f his younger days, having tasted the bitter dregs of pov- erty, as it has made him richér now in knowledge nad understanding than he otherwise could have been. Of local interest is the fact that Mr. Leitch married Miss Mary Schnabel, daughter of George and Mary Stehd- man Schnabel, who many years ago resided at 417 Washington street. Mrs. Leitch is aleo connected with the Hyde family, the Steadmans and Hydes being two of the oldest and most esteemed families of Norwich.
