Treasury peopie to banks and mer- cantile establishments. to be on the watch for counterfeit $5 federal reserve notes. The counterfeit is on the Federal Reserve Bank of- Phifadelphia with the check let- ter “B face plate Ne. 144; Carter Glass, cretary of the’Treasury, Jobn Burke treasurer of -the United States. The portrait is of Lincom. This counterféit is apparently printed from photc-mechanical plates of ama- teurish workmanship, on, two pieces of paper, betweén which a few red silk threads haie been distributed to supple- ment the imitation threads printed on the back of the note. The biue seal on the mote is too heavy and the lines are not well formed. The figures on the note are C—20142538—A and are well form-| ed and printed but the blue ink smears under the weétted finger. The portrait of Linceln is poor.and should lead te ready detection of the counterfeit. Anyone discovering one of these notes in Norwich should notify U. S. Comm!s- | sioner Earl Mathewsom, Thayer build- ing. MERCIER COUNCIL ELECTS . OFFICERS FOR THE YEAR Mies .
