Four years ago Mr. Sweet gave up his meat market in Voluntown and moved to Southbridge, Mass., where he was a salesman for a meat firm in that city. For one session of the legislature in 1914 he was representative from the town of Voluntown and served to the sat- isfaction of his townsmen .

(Contributed) The passing away last Thursday of William P. Ryan has. brought great sor- {Tow to a happy home. The expressions of sympathy from dear friends and bus- iness associates have proven it. Born over forty years ago, in Greeneville, the youngest son of the late William and Bridget Welch Ryan, he received his ear- ¥ education in tha Greeneville Grammar school, later going to St. Patrick’s pa- rochoal school from which he graduat-i ed, finally taking a business course at a business college, and ‘graduating from there. Mr. Ryan then entered the em- vloy of the late G. F. Bard and mastered the nlumbing and steamfitting trade. In | company with his older brother, the late John T. Ryan, he-opened a plumbing shop, continuing over twenty years fi- ?auy selling, out to Sullivan & Down- ng. - Mr. Ryan was an ideal citizen, a great lover of his home, a devout member of I St. Mary's church, and will be greatly missed in the community from which he was so quickly taken. ] Two Summer Trains A new train was added to the pas- senger service of the New Haven road Friday, operative Fridays and Saturdays only, and to continue during the summer.

The purchase price for the property was not stated. In the last grand list of the town.the Marlin-Rockwell Corporation | was assessed on this property for $213,- 500, t Stperintendent Munz stated Sunday ev- ening that the deal was closed Friday in New York at the offices of the Standard Steel & Bearings, Inc.. of which the Mar- lin-Rockwell of Norwich is ‘ona of the constituent parts. Superintendent Munz companied by Mayor J. J. Desmond. The officers of the Martin Co. met the officers of Standard Steel and Bearings, Inc., of which former Internal Revenue Commis- sioner Daniel C. Roper is president, and the deal was closed Friday afternoon. -Superintendent Munz said that it would probably be two months before the Martin Co. would take possession as there is much machinery to be moved out of the Marlin-Rockwell ’factory. The new addition to the factory which was builf on Crestnut street is practically cleared of the firearms machinery which the Marlin-Rockwell corporation used, but the old Hopkins & Allen section-of the plant is still full of machinery that has been gold in small lots to individual buyers. This will be moved out and shipped away as fast as possible. The Martin Co. already owns the prop- erty on the westerly side of Wiiow street, from Franklin'street to Chestnut street, having purchased this some time ago With' the intention of building there, but the cost of building has gone up to such fig- ures that it was found the Marlin-Rock- well plant could be bought for about what it would cost to build a new velvet mill on Willow street, and there would be the added advantage of getting a building at once. = Superintendent Munz sald Sunday night that he could not tell yet just how the Marlin-Rockwell property would be used by the velvet mill. [t might be pos- sible that they would find they had more | room than they needed and some parts of their new purchase, in. that event, might be rented to other industries.

France, anl Clearfield, P and the recently purchased Gordon building on Willow street. All of these will be operated regardless of the new plant just acquired. SUGAR PRICE OF 30c SEEMS LIKELTHOOD HERE According to information given out on Sunday evening there (is every prospect that sugar withif the dext few days will be selling for 25 cents to 30 cents a pound unless & very large shipment is received in this city. The prospect of such a shipment is very slight for on Satérday a local wholesaler was informed by the representative of the refineries that no more sugar would be shipped in- to Norwich for some time and that the only way sugar could be procured would be to send trucks from this city to the refinery in Brooklyn. » This method, upon investigation, shows that in order to do this it will mean an added cost of $2 per -hundred pounds to get sugar to Norwich and would mean | an increase of several cents a pound to | the consumer. At the refinery it is re- ported that there is plenty of sugar but that it is practically impossible to trans- port it Owing to strikes. A line of trucks a mile long can be seen in front of the refivery every day waiting for consignment of sugar, some Of _these trucks coming from places as far distant as Buffalo. Another difficylty is that only union truck drivers will be allowed to drive the trucks that go to the ware- houses. An order must_ be procured from the salesman who Gomes to Nor- wich, this has to be endorsed at the New York office and then comes the wait in line before the sugar can be loaded. This may mean a delay of a day or two, which all adds to the expense of the sugar. Boston is out of the question as a source of supply as Norwich -is in the New York district and cannot get sugar from the Boston district. The whole sugar shortage at present is due to the strikes in New York and on the rail- roads. Not only is there a sugar shortage but the potato supply is running low and the prices are gradually creeping sky- wer. Seed potatoes are wayout of sight, bringing prices that exceed all records while potatoes for —consumption are beyond a7/ previous records. These po- tatoes are bringing as high as six dollars 1, i Here again the trans- es are to blame but the bad pota® vear last summer is part- ly to blame COMPENSATION FOR INJURIES THAT CRIPPLE TWO FINGERS The following seven workhen's com- { pensation agreements have been approv- ed by Commissioner J.
