Noth- ing was found at any of these stores excepting at McQuillan’s and here the federal men found two barrels of cider in the back room, a container of sweet cider, and a number of empty Ja- maica ginger, bottles. which led them to believe that jakey was being used. Sdmples of the cider were taken .by the 'officers and McQuillan was notified that he was to leave whatever stock of cider he had alone until he heard from the federal authorities. - At a special meeting of tha’ Wi limantic Chamber of Commerce held at the chamber rooms Thursday night the subject of adopting Jiylight sav- ing in_this community was threshed out. ' President Fullerton called the meeting to order shortly before 8 o'- clock and asked if any person had anything to say about the daylight saving, plan that was being adopted in many cities round about Williman- tic. It was soon evident that several people Had something to say and rep- resentatives of the local manufactur- ing plants stated that they were in favor of having the daylight saving as their employes desired to have the extra hour.in the evening to work in their gardens at home. Representa- tives of the’ local mertantile estab- lishments stated their views and seemed divided upon the subject. Representatives of the farming in- dustry stateq their.cases strongly and came out flatfooted against’ having the daylight saving in this commu- nity. A motion put that the sense of the meeting be that the community as such take no-action on the matter but | the decis’on be left'with the manu- facturers, was voted down. A motion that the sense of the meeting be that the comimunity favor the daylight saving without setting the clocks back was voted upon and accepted. It was finally decided that the man- ufacturers get together and plan some way in which the situation can be met. The subject of erecting a waiting station at the end of the Norwich- Willimantic trolley line and that the Liberty cottage be used for that pur- pose if possible to‘ obtain use of it was talked over and a committee was appointed to act with.members of the Willimantic Woman’s Club in this matter, From all indications the question of having' daylight .saving ‘in this city is by no means settled and the public at large will have their part in the dis- cussion . of this question which | will affect them as well as the manufac- turer, merchant, and farmer. Unless the community at large agrees upon a method to be followed out ‘Vflli- mantic will be in trouble when the system is adopted by some while oth- ers refuse to adopt it.

Mr, St. John, who is in charge of the M. P. church at the Plains, was present and responded to the pastor's invitation to preach. Mr. St. John's text was “Yet forty days and Ninevah shall be destroyed.” It was not then destroyed, because its inhabitants re- pented and turned from their sins. But when they, 100 vyears later, were again submerged in sin, God did ut- terly destroy Ninevak. God can do His will at any time, and with no help from you or me. He can bring ahout the revival for which evangelical churches are praying and working just as well in the face of all apparent dif- ficulties and discouragements of weather or other conditions, if we live a prayer-life, seeking to do His will in daily lives. Col. 3: 1-17, “What, kind of a man should a Christian be in tholght, word and deed, ideals and endeavors as ex- pressed in life and neighborly rela- tions?"" is the midweek prayer service topic for the home altars March 31st.
