HOPKINS & SON class mottoes of the old school Were quoted by many, and favorite declama- tions by members were heard as 'old friends met after being parted these many years. [Friendship, the favorite answer of the classes, prevailed. Colonel Welch and Mrs. Welch met all of the graduates between the hours of 7 and 8 and when all acquaintances had| . been renewed the following banquet’ was served by the Ladies' Society of the | Congregational church: Fruit cocktail, chicken pie, French fried potatoes, peas, jelly, pickles, rolls, asparagus. salad, cheese crackers neapolitan ice dream, assorted cake and coffee. Master of Ceremonies William Henry Hull of the class of '87 then called upon every class for 'greeting to Colonel Welch and this was followed by a greet- ing from all graduates of Natchauy. Col- onel Welch responded in a manner famil- iar to those who know him best, and ex- pressed his pleasure at having an oppor- tunity to meet. with those who graduated when he was principal of Natchaug, and| hoped this meeting would not be the last but that reunions might be held at some future time. Associate teachers respond- ed to.greetings and Mr. Hall called up- lon various pupils who also ' expressed their pleasure of having Colonel _and Mrs. Welch with them once again.

It new COflCCP' chauffeur of William Street of Darien collided with one of the American Thread company trucks at Darien. en route from this city to New York. The truck was badly damaged and Arthur Kumpff, the driver, sustained a fractured leg. Not long after the accident Mr. Street was killed in a collision with another car and the executors of his estate refused to pay the damages sustained by the Amer- ican Thread Company. Later action was brought before the Fairfield county su- perior court at Bridgeport to secure damages. The case was to be heard on Tuesday but a settlement in favor of the American Thread Compwny was —made ia.nd the matter adjusted. | A change in the parking rules on Main {street has been made. The “no parking” sign on the south side of Main street has been moved up the street to a point op- posite the stock house of the -Jordan Hardware company. On the north side of the street the “no parking” sign has been removed but automobile drivers and all vehicle drivers are notified to park their machines close to the curbing and remain there only for such time as is absolutely necessary. This particular section of Main street caused all the trouble that has thus far arisen from the new ordinance pertaining to parking in the city. Business houses on the north side of Main street claimed they had been damaged by the ruling and it is hoped this new arrangement will sat- isfy them and owners of vehicles use judgment in parking on the north side as the street in that section is narrow and ill adapted to heavy teaffic.

It is Universal's screen ver- sion of a story by Ida M. Tarbell, whose pen sketches of American feminine types make her novels and short stories of ab- sorbing interest. The photodrama, di- rected by Philip Rosen, is enacted by an all-star cast, including Kathleen O'Con- nor, Dagmar Godowsky, Claire Anderson, Edward. Coxen, J. Farrell McDonald and starring Anne Cornwl The Path Sihe Chose is a story of life.in a large Ameri- can city. It belongs to the realistic school of drama, treating of the seamy as well as the smooth side of modern ex- istence, and arguing the premise that it is possible today to accomplish what Abraham Lincoln did in rising fron humbie surroundings to a_higher sphere of life. Marvelous fidelity to life marks every seene and situation in this human drama, skilfully handied by Director Rosen, and cleverly portrayed by the many players who enact the principal roles. In addition to those aiready men- tionew, there are spléndid characteriza- tions by William Moran. Virginia Faire, and Helen Wright. William Russel will also be seen in the romantic love song of the plains, Shod Wijth Fire, and a Bray pictograph will complete the bill Hoyt's Revuoe at the Davis This Week.

The Stolen Kiss Is a whimsical story by Lucflle Van Slyke. Miss Binney shows a little of the marvelous dancing which started her on the road to fame. The Stolen Kiss shows the ‘debutante star in a dual role. She is seen both a little girl brought up in almost clois- ter-like seclusion and as her bed-ridden mother. Felicia, the little girl undergoes a series of pathetic, yet whimsical, ad- ventures before she finds love and hap- viness.

JEWETT CITY The conference of the was held Wednesday with the Newent church in Lisbon. The day was fine an dthe attendance was over two hun- dred, members and their friends from the Congregational churches in Plainfield Jewett City, Griswold, Preston City, Hanover and Lisbon. The services were carried out under the direction of Rev. W. J. Reynolds, pastor of the church. Mr. Reynolds in his thoughtful ad- dress said: 1If I trust in God in spite of a business loss, in spite of bereavement and disaster, if I continue cheerful and courageous in spite of sickness and mis- fortune, it is surely the evidence that God is within me, not the external ac- cident that 1 live near the church nor is it the occ §'on of a transient - senti- ment, but the eternal spiritual life of my life whom neither time nor chance can separate from me. The services opened with an organ vol- untary by F. E\ Hyde, organist and chorist- er. After the usual devotional exercises the address of the morning w.'s by Rev. J. Romeyn Danforth of New london. His sermon was founded on the L.ct ef today being the accepted time from the text in John where Christ reminded His desciples that the fields were already white to the haryest. The church was still and the au@ience strictly attentive, it being their privilege of listening to & man who knew and could grove it. The collation at noon served by the hospitable women of the church was as generous as it was appetizing and con- sisted of: Coal roast chicken, cold boil- ed ham, baked beans, potato salad, sweet pickle relish, home made brown bread. Parker house rolls, strawberry short cake, assorted cake, coffee. In the afternoon the address was by Rev. Harry S. McCready of Willimantic.
