WEST The Recrniting Station on Wheels, which started on a six months' trip Tuesday in the intevest of the navy re- cruiting service, is scheduled to visit Westerly. It is said this enterprise will exceed anything before attempted in re- cruiting. The party has its own electric generator, moving picture projector, and in the course of a few weeks will be fitted with a wireless set so that it may com- municate with the commanding officer di- rect. The house on the auto truck, en- tirely built by the skilled navy artisans of the recruiting service, has all the ERLY tlement of the strike. The building at the corner of Bank and Howard streets, New London, for- merly owned by the late Patrick Feme- | lon, of Westerly, is to be razed to make ‘way for a parklet, and widening of ‘the highway.

He told of his experiences while in the military service and made comparisons of the methods that prevailed in. the Revolutionary and Civil wars with those that dominated in the world war. Inter- est was added to the address by relics collected on the battlefields of the wars he referrad to, and which were explained by the talented speaker. The committee of the Central Labor wnion_appointed to consult with employ- wrs 3hd bring about a settlement of the Jaborers’ strike held a session but with- out result. The employers' offer of 60 cents an hour stands for the present but may be lowered to the same rate Tor common labor that prevails in New Lon- don and Norwich, according to statement made at the meeting. The laborers’ de- mand is for 75 cents an hour for an eight hour day. Tt was stated at the meeting that the majority of the laborers are of- fering their services to others, not their former employers, at a lower rate than has been offered them. Nothing was ac- complished at the meeting that tended toward settlement of the strike situation. So the deadlock continues. Plans are in the works for three high- construction contracts, Which in- cludes one mile of asphalt macadam on the Farnum pike near Georgiaville, and about two miles of the: same material from Cross' Mills to Xenyon. This stretch will make a through hard-sur- face highway. Another proposed im- provement is on the Nooseneck road from Washington, five miles southerly. This road is to be, of cement concrete, and will make a Tadical reconstruction of the roadway, following in part a new location.

The village all piped for sewerage, so no contamination can pessibly occur, all closets and sinks are connected. When the baths are completed it will be a big improvement as well as great convenience to all residingg here. The closets are to be installed first and the other bathroom fixtures later. The work is in charge of ‘William C. Fischer of New Haven. a man thoroughly capable of seeing that the work is dome as it should be. Another advantage here, especially through the summer months, is the shade given by the finest trees in eastern Connecticut, as some of the handsomest elms ara to be found here. These are taken care of each year, being trimmed and sprayed. The employes of this company have many things for which to be thankful. Persons passing through often comment on the cleanliness and beauty of the entire vil- lage. ‘The Girls’ club held a concert and dance in Wauregan hall last Friday even- ing which was largely attended and proved a suyccess.

Though suffering greatly for many months, he managed to keep up courage and rema at work until four weeks ago. As a blacksmith he was onme of the best, and ! is place will be difficult to fill.
