The matter has been talked over among bus- iness men, a large number of whom faver the plan. This (Wednesday) evening in the town hall a public meeting is to ‘be called to listen to pro and con opiniens in the matter. Comparatively few people, especially those under 50, .know that a nationgl bank once existed in this town. In 1831, when Jewett City was a village, a state bank wa8 duly established fn ac- cordance with the existing laws of Con- necticut. The charter was secured and Daniel Packer of Packerville was elected the first president. The institution had a capitalization of $50,000. This bank was nationalized in 1865, during the Civil war. The presidents ~succeeding Mr. Packer served in this order: Joseph S. Gladding, John Johnson, Bbenezer Has- kins, David Smith, Daniel S. Anthony and Charles C. Johnson. The men who served as cashiers were Charles Johnhon, John Johnsen, Lemuel Tyler, James Johnson, John Sands Grant and Henry T. Crosby. The bank ceased to exist in 1870, after about 40 years of a mere or less tortuous career. In 1839 State's Attorney Isham brought suit against the Jewett City Na- tional bank, charging irregularities in business and violations of the charter. At one time during it sexistenee the late John F. Slater of Norwich was in- duced to become interested in_its finan- cial status, “to save its bacon.” Its last board of directors was Henry T. Croshy, Charles Johnson, Thomas L. Shipman and Shubael Meech. The bank occupied the brick building on the corner of South Main and An- thony streets, Which was the home of the Jewett City Savings bank until the new building on Main street was erected, nearly 25 years ago. The mational bank transacted the reg- ular business of any institution of its class and in several old collections of coins and notes hereabouts are to be seen bank notes of the Jewett (‘i!ylg\'a.tionnl bank bearing the signature of Henry. T. Crosby, cashier. It is believed that now sueh an insti- tution could be established and maintain- jed and be a benefit and credit to the town if a large per cent. of the banking business now transacted elsewhere could be secured. At present it is probable that 75 per cent. of such business is done through the Thames National bank of Norwich. There are also many aceounts by Tocal firms, business concerns and pri- Yyate citizens with the Uneas and Chelsea banks of Norwich, the Seeurity Trust company of Hartford and the Plainfield and Windham -eounty national banks. The marriage ceremony of Harold Bv- erett Spicer of Jewett City and Miss Elizabeth Houston McCluggage was per- formed at the home of the bride’s par- ents, Mr. and Mrs. Alex McCluggage, in Lisbon, Tuesday evening at 6 o'elock. The mantel in the parlor was banked with ferns, palms, hydrangeas and 'begonias and baskets of Faster lilies, while on the piano were low haskets of lilies and. as- paragus fern. The living room was deco- rated with carnations, lilies of the valley, roses and palms. In the dining room were snap-dragon, red and white carna- tions and Faster lilies. The decorating was done by Mrs. F. C. Whiting. Before the ceremony Clifford W. Taylor of New York sang O Promise Me. As the bridal party entered the parlor Prof. W. H. White of Norwich plaved the march frem Lohengrin, and he played To a Wild Rose j during the ceremony. The double ring service was used, Rev. George D. Stanley of Westerly, assisted by Rev. J. B. Ald- rich of Jewett City, performing the cere- mo: The bride wore a gown of pink charmeuse and georgette with bead garni- ture. She carried an arm bouquet of pink and white roses. The bridesmaid was her sister, Miss Mildred M. McCluggage. She wore blue georgette and ecarried sweet peas. The best man was Clifford W. Taylor of New York. The bride's gift to the bridesmaid was a necklace of pearl beads. The bridegroom gave his best man a silver cigarette holder. A Teception was held, during which John Woodworth, manager of the Aspinook company’'s hotel, catered. Mr. and Mrs. Spicer left for a trip to New York, North Adams, Hudsen, Mass., and other points of interest. They will reside in a newly furnished home in Bliss place, Norwich, where Mr, Spicer v iWHEN A HEALTHY BABY i GRIES T00 MU H the sensitive skin may be % e mn ey e o el i !

Owners of the smaller cars can enjoy the same high relative value in Goodyear Tires that gives utmost satisfaction to owners of big, costly motor carriages. They can take advantage of that tremendous amountof equipmient,skill and care employed by Goodyear to build tires of extraordinary worth in the 30 x 3-, 30 x 3%5-,and 31 x 4 inch sizes. They can secure these tires without waiting, despite the enormous demand, because, in addition to its larger sizes, Goodyear builds an average of 20,000 a day in the world’s largest tire factory devoted to the three sizes mentioned.
