RORWICH BULLETIN, THURSDA g The first step towards the raising of $5,000 for the Boy Scouts of Norwich was taken Wednesday evening whén at a meeting® of about 26 representative- cit- izens of the city, it was voted to ap- point’a committee of five to make. plans for the campaign which 'is soon to be launched. - ¥ Arthur L.. Peale president of the Nor- wich Boy Scout council, presided at the meeting “which was held in the Chamber of Commerce rooms on Shetucket street. Among ‘those present were representatives of. the Norwich Rotary club, Chamber of Commerce, Norwich Lodge, No. 430 B. P. 0. E, Boy Scout Council, ~Spanish ‘War Veterans, Amrican Legion and sev- eral were present from nearby towns: Roy Nelson Berry, national field scout executive, New England district, of Bos- ton, was present at the meeting and ad- dressed the gathering on Boy Scout ac- tivities In general. It was decided that the chair appoint a committee of five to arrange the plans for the campnaign and also" to set the date for the drive. The object of the campaign will be to raise $5,000 for the first year. This will en- able the securing of the services of a scout director to take charge of the local work. Norwich is one of the two or three cities of its size in New England without WILL INVESTIGATE FATALITY FROM SHOOTING ACCIDENT Coroner J. J. Desmond is to begin an investigation of the accidental shooting of Syiva %avahtini of North Stonington by Rebert “Sellers of 78 School street, this city, which resulted in the death of Zava- tini from blood poisoning. The wounded man died, it is under- stood, before any official statement had been taken from him as to the accidental shooting. - It is understood that the only witnesses to the accident were Sellers and the man who was the vietim of it. Coroner Desmond had made some pre- liminary inquiries about the circumstanc- es of the shooting and has learned that Sellers and Zavantini were out hunting together on the day before the accident. Both..men are said .to. have borne .zood characters in the North Stonington com- munity, where Sellers was known be- cause he had married a North Stonington girl and lived there while he was em- ployed as a motorman on the Norwich and Westerly trolley line. AT DAVIS THEATRE Opera “Ruddigore.” Gilbert & Sullivan’'s comic travesty, Ruddigore, full of the tune- ful music and subtle wit of these two masters of musical comedy of a gen- eration ago, was presented at the Davis theatre Wednesday by the Bos- ton English Operoa Co. before audi- ences that filled the theatre for mati- nee and evening performances. Well balanced choruses of good voices sang their numbers with fine effect and the solo parts, with the possible exception of one, were in capable hands as to musical endowment and stage skill opera of much merit. Alice May Carley as Mad Margaret used her finely trained contralto to the best advantage and captivated her audience with her travesty mad scene. Marionne Godbout as the -village belle was especially attractive and her so- prano voice was heard with much pleasure, while Eva Quintard, as Dame Hulda, in solo and in her duet with Joseph Florian, The Rose and the Oak, shared in the first honors of the pro- duction. Bertram Goltra, Dan Marble and Miss Carley won numerous recalls for their singing of It Really Doesn't Matter, and Gus Vaughn did - some while George Bogues was the typical sailor man seen in Gilbert & Sullivan's operas. Possibly because the comedy s not the tempestuous modern variety that doubles the audience in its seats over slapstick antics, but was in clev- erly turned lines 2nd phrases, much of it went over the heads of the audience; and possibly because the ehorus was too generously clothed for the. preva- lent mode in comic operas, a good pro- portion of the evening and matinee crowds pronounced it tame. But for those who had other ways of looking at it and hearing it, Ruddigore pro- vided an entirely satisfactory - enter- tainment. LEBANON FARMERS SUBSCRIBE FOR CO-OPERATIVE BUYING At a recent meeting in Lebanon under the auspices of the county farm bureau on the subject of co-operative buying 'about 25 men turned out to talk over the plans with ‘Mr. Monroe, the marketing specialists from the college 'and County Agent H. F. Johnston. Mr. Dimon, the manager of the Columbia Exchange was present with three members besides him- self. He stated at the meeting that 10 days ago the Coulmbia Exchange un- loaded a car of Soft winter wheat bran, of extremely fine quality at $43 a ton to the members. At that time the average of 6 of the retail stores in the county on bran- was about $49 per ton. With a 30 ton car, this meant a saving of areund $180 to the Columbia farmers with the probability that a good part of the bran sold at the retailers of this county was not of such good qualify as that bought by this exchange. It was also stated hy this man that on a mixed ear which was shipped in' the middle of October, a sav- ing of all the way from 25 to 60 cents a bag was made on the different feeds in this car. The question arose as to the advisi- bility of joining with the Columbia Ex- change with a' general shipping point at Chestnut Hill or of organizinz a Separ- ate exchange for Lebanon. It was finally decided to select a .committee to Jook into the situation, secure subscriptions for stock and decide whether it was best to join' with the Columbia ‘ExcHange, most of whose members ilve at Chestnut Hill or of organizing separately. = This com- mittee was' composed of E. A. Hoxle, chairman, E. H. McCall. W. F. Clark. L. P. Smith and Charles Geer. Tt was voted that the shares should be $50 each; and that this organization should pay 6 per cent interest on all stock subscribed. At_the close of the meeting 13 men signed a subscription paper for shares of stock, and subscribed for 17 shares, or a total of $550. Seyeral men also made tde statement that they would be glad to subscribe for morg Stock if necessary to make the exchange & success. — LEWIS HOLDS LEAD IN" WEST SIDE PINOCHLE Lewis retained his lead in the tourn- ament of the West Side Pinochle club after the second night of play on Wed- nesday evening.

Sl G R e e e B T T R TR WANT $350,000 FOR WAR ON CONNECTICUT MOSQUITO The mosquito, carrier of malaria, a summer night pest and a general nuis- ance, was thoroughly discussed, cussed, and everlasting war declared upon him at the weekly nomaday luncheon of the Norwich Rotary club held at the Waure- gan hotel on Wednesday noon, when John Moran, treasurer of the Anti-Mosquito as- sociation of Connecticut, Dr. W. E. Brit- ton, state entomologist, and Everett G. Hill, secretary of the association, spoke against the mosquito, telling of its habits and health menace and of the state-wide crusade against this pest. The three speakers were the guests of Mayor H. M. Lerou, who introduced them. Mr. Moran was the first to' bring up the subject of the mosquito, saving that Wal- ter H. Wilson, a prominent member of Chicago's civic life and for 2§ years a summer resident at Westbrook, was the first to start an organized movement against the pest. Mr. Wilson realized the menace to health and the physical discom- fort caused by the mosauito and started out to exterminate him through the peo- ple of the state. The Connecticut Anti- Mosquito association was formed last Au- gust and has already enlisted the financial support of prominent Connecticut men, and is striving now to get legislation that will provide for the extermination of the mosquito under state supervision. Dr. Britton of New Haven was the next speaker. Dr. Britton outlined the habits of the pest and told interestingly of the way the mosquito could be done away with. The mosquito, said Dr. Britton, has been taken by most people as has the income tax and the 1Sth amendment. The majority will tell you that the mos- | quito was ,put here by God and by God he will stay. But we know that the mosquito cannot stay if there is a con- certed movement against him. The mos- quito must have water to breed in, not necessarily large bodies, for the mosquito will breed in Tain barrels and half filled tomato cans. All mosquitoes bite, and there are 25 kinds in the state. There are two most common Kinds—the one tHat breeds in the salt marshes and those that breed in fresh water, the last gener- ally being the malaria éarriers. There is practically no community that is without mosquitoes. The fresh water mosquito is not a great traveler, but the salt marsh mosquito his been known to travel 30 to 40 miles. Malaria is transmitted from one person to another through the bite of the mos- quito, the female of the species being the carfiers, as the male cannot bite. The salt marsh mosquito lays her eggs in the mud and the eggs hatch out during the spring, but the house mosquito lives through ‘the ‘Winter in cellars and other damp and out of way places. AS to the exterminating of the mosquito the salt marsh species can he gotten rid of by the cutting of ditches in the marsh, thus draining it and.compelling the mos- quito to breed in deep water, where the fish can eat the wrigglers. This is the least. expensive way. The fresh water mosquito can be exterminated by drain- ing of stagnant ponds, mud holes, spray- ing of dumps and rain barrels. It costs about $5 per acre to drain the salt marshes and Connecticut has at present about 18,000 acres, of which 6,000 have been ditched. There have been several legisiative measures taken to rid the state of the mosquito, but there has been a lack of united effort on the part of the towns. One town has dome all it could but the mext town has not, and so the work of the first wown goes for nothing. What we want is a state- wide effort to rid our state of the pest. Following Dr. Britton's talk, E. G. Hill spoke on the subject and explained the plan of the association. He said that we to get rid of the mosquito. get at it in a systematic way; people have regarded the mosquito in a matter of fact way. We want to g0 to the legislature for the principal way of getting rid of the pest. We want toask for an appropriation of $350,000 for the first two years and then it will only take about $35.000 a year to continue it. This has been caretully estimated and it means the ridding of Connecticut of a great health menace. We must kill the mos- quito before he is born. It has been done in Panama and Cuba, where the mosquito carries yellow fever, and why cannot it be done in Connecticut? The 'speakers wete given a rising vote of thanks 'by the Rotarians, of whom there were about 36 present. President J. C. Worth presided at the meeting and read a communication from the Interna- tional Rotary regarding the organization of a club in Willimantic. The interna- tional body favors the organization- and the following committee was appointed to g0 ahead with the work: J. C. Worth, chairman; E. Howard Baker, Lucius Briggs, Charles A. Gager, Jr., H.

Browr. and Joseph W. Curtis. A communication from Governor-elect Everett J. Lake in response to an invita- tion from H. M.

George L. Paine of New Haven. Rev. Mr. Paine in his talk said that there were 165 Episopal ciregymen in three provinces alone who received less than $1,000 a year and that it was the intention of the campaign to increase the salaries of #nese men so that they will be getting a living salary. Another thing is the placing of strong men in college centers, men who know youth and who through the Episcopal teachings will save many young men and women to the chureh. Every year over 17,000 young men and women leave the ary schools and in very few cases arc they followed by an Episcopal clergyman. The church hopes to do a larger work among the three million mountain whites in the southern Appalachian d tricts. At present these people are il- literate and most work in mills or are out in the sparsely settled section. There are only 42 schools in the valleys and if the Alvin Yorks of the future are to be educated there must be something done for them through the Episcopal church. There are 20 million foreign born in this country who are untouched by the church, 50 million are in the country be- yond the influence of the church and more *han 60 million or more than half the p...le in the United States are mem- bers of no church at all. There is a large opportunity for the Episcopal church to do an immense amount of good. These are only a few of the things that the money is to be used for. been active there in the Episcopal church, spoke to the meeting and told of his experiences in the south and else- where. He said that everyone could give five per cent. of their income to th great work.

The disclosures made at the time of the war startled us by revealing the gr fact that we are a physically defective people. In their heroic service across the s 0,000 of our soldiers gave their lives in defense of freedom. During the same period of eighteen months nearly a million of our people, some children, others in middle life, died from pre- ventable disease victims of ignorance or digFegard of tne laws of health.
