A suit for $5.000 damages againsc the Central Vermont Rallroad by Louis E. (Special to The Bulletin) New, London, Sept. 29—The Ashland Cotton Company of Jewett City was host tonight to its overseers and department heads at a banquet at the Mohican Ho- tel. There were about twenty present at the banquet and the evening proved a most enjoyable one. The trip to and from New London was made by motor, the tramspertafion being furnished by the Ashland Company. The banquet was given the department splendid cooperation given the company in its recent offer of preferred stock to the mill employes. In line with the policy recently adopted by the U. S. Steel Corporation, the General Eleqarld Uompany, The Am- erican Telephone & Telegraph Company, the Ashland Cotton Company recently offered its preferred stock to its oper- atives on a partial payment plan. Their response makes an unusual record which is gratifying to the management as an indication .of the close relationship ex- isting between the management amd the operatives, their confidence in the man- agement and their interest in the com- pany. The mills have for some months been operating 22 hours a day and the com- pany at present employs about 400 hanas who are 100 per cent subscribed to the new stock. There is not an employe who has not subscribed for at least one share of stock, many having taken more. The Ashland Cctton Company Has been progressive in its development of cordial and friencly relations between the oper- atives and the managentent and tue are few industrial companfes whose op- eratives have a clearer insight into, or are more closely in touch with the zen- eral affairs of the ‘company that those at Ashland. The operatives have their own representative organization nd meet regularly with wne representatives of the management to wfscuss quesiions of mutual interest and these meetings have not only resulted to the best in- terests of- the operatives but in many instances the operatives have made sug- gesticns which have been of value to the management. There has not been a strike at Ash- land in over ten years and it is felt there that this is very largely due to the broad- minded policy, of the company in being glad at all times to meet its employees on a commpon footing, man to man, and to be willing to consider complaints or suggestions and after discussion to arrive at a mutually satisfactory understanding. In the matter of working and housing conditions, facilities for recreation and the enjoyment of leisure hours, the com- pany some years ago adopted a pro- gressive attitude and it has been found that they have been mere than repaid in doing so by the friendly and appre- ciative attitude of the operatives, w the result that the company feeis that it receives from its operatives fully as much as it gives. There was a time when the spirit of both industrial operatives and industrial companies was to give as little to each other and to get as much from cach other ae possible an it is gratifying to the Ashland management and operatives to find that that day is fast disappearing and is being superseded by a spirit of fair play end friendly cooperation, based upon the realization that what is to the best interests of one is equally to the best interests of the other and that the best success of each can be better fotered by a spirit of friendly helpful- ness than by <ne of selfish antagonism.

After the menu, Mr. Carpenter, the toastmaster, said that Grosvenor Ely, treasurer of the company, who had plan- ned to attend the banquet, was unable to be present. He sent his regrets how- ever, in a letter which was read by Mr. Carpenter, and also provided 100 cigars which were freely circulated. Mr. Carpenter, after speaking of the occasion for the banquet, said the event had a double pleasure for him, as today was the 12th anniversary of the date he entered the employ of the Ashland Company. Speaking to the overseers and {second hands he said: “You are connect- ed with one of the finest organizations ho has died since the sut|Of its Kind in the country, and they are Was ety s x| ci 3 y doing and have done.” “ots from the superior court, M. | ciate what you are doing Brunelle brought sult because of injuries to himself and damage to his baker's wagon and his horse when the wagon was hit by the engine of a freight tr. on the Yantic crossing on the night of January 12, 1917. lNCID—EN'!'S IN SOCIETY Mrs. Henry Grinell of New York, is visiting friends in town.

He took occasion to thank Mr. Brown, the superintendent, and the vverseers and second hands for the splendid work they have done in putting over the stock is- sue among the employes. President Hill Speaks The toastmaster then introduced as the first speaker on the evening’s pre- gram President Hill of the Barstow-Hill Company of Boston. Mr. Hill said he was very much gratified to be present because of the splendid record piled up by the department heads of the mill in putting over a 100 per cent stock issue among the 400 employes of the mill. “I believe I am correct in stating that’ this record has only been duplicated once before. We are very fortunate in having associated with us as a director in the Barstow-Hill Company your toastmas- ter, Mr. Carpenter.” Mr. Hill said there are a good many copmpanies selling secu- rities that have different lines. Some houses look for securities that are pri- marily a gamble.Other houses specialize in high grade honds, others in high grade stocks and still others in listed and unlisted securities. We have specialized in fi- nancing good New Fngland industrial securities. Our idea is to only pick the best. In the last six months at least 150 New England industrial concerns have come to us and out of that 150 we have selected three. Many of those .150 com- cerns had considerable merit 4 - pany impressed us so that . - resist taking on their issue. In closing Mr. Hill said it gave him genuine pleas- ure to be present at the gathering. The next speaker was Vice President Graham who congratulated the depart- fent heads on the wonderful work “You have accomplished” as he put it. He congratulated Mr. Carpenter and M. Brown for the very efficlent force of ovegseers and ‘sfzoNd hands in their employ and congratulated the overseers and second hands on having such men as Mr. Carpenter and Mr. Brown over them. He spoke very highly of the effi- clency of the Ashland mills, both in the matter of help and machinery. Representative Nash who had charge viets heads as a mark of appreciation of the) vestigation of the Ashland Cottom Cem- Ashiand Employes Become Stockholders, Every One Subscribing To New Issue of the stock campalgn was next intro- duced by the toastmaster. Mr. Nash after his opening remarks, expressed him- self as greatly pleased with the help and cocperation shown him by the de- partment heads during the month's cam- paign. The Liberty bond drives have taught people to save, he said. If that was a good thing, it is.a far better thing to teach the employes of a plant to save by investing their money in the ccncern for which they work. You Have start- ed something, gentlemen. Don't let ft stop. Keep up the good work, he sald in_conclusion. Prentice W. Chase, welfare supervisor of ‘the Ashland Company, gave a vei interesting talk on the work and activ- ities of the welfare department of the mill, which he said is daily becominz more and more popular with the em- ployes. Thehe were brief remarks by all pres- ent and the prevailing spirit was one of tocperation and good fellowship. The toastmaster introduced as the final speak- er George S. Brown, superintendent. Mr. Brown, after his preliminary re- marks, read an original and humoous poem touching all the department heads. The poem made a hit with all and laugh- ter ran riot while it was being read. Prizes ure Awarded The evening was brought to a close by the awarding of cash prizes to those who were most successful in disposing of stock among the employes. The awards were announced by Mr. Carpenter who said that it had been extremely difficult for the committee on prizes to reach a decision as to whom the prizes should go, so ‘close was the race among the department heads. Mr. Carpenter announced the prizes as follow: First prize, $20, T. B. Duggan, over- ser spinning rcom; second prize, $10,) Gaspard Dugas, night overseer of spin- ning. Prizes of $10 each were awarded to Alfred L. Stebbins, assistant superin- tendent and Prentice W. Chase, welfare worker, for their part in putting the campaign over. Mr. Carpenter said that it had been planned to give a third prize of $5 but as all the overseers had done such spien- did work it had been decided to give each overseer a prize, and so prizes of $5 were then presented to the remainder | of the overseers, much to their surpris and delight. The prizes were presented with the compliments of the Barstow- Hill Company. Before the gathering broke up there were rising votes of thanks for Mr. Ely for the cigars and for Mr. Carpenter and the Barstow-Hill Co. The party started back for Jewett City about 10:45 o'clock.

WHY THE TEETH CHATTER The little muscles which close the jaw are acted upon by the coldin such a way that they pull the jay up and let it fall by its own weight, says the Popular Science Monthly. This, re- peated many times, causes the teeth to click together and produces what is known as. “chattering”. “You think of it in connection with your teeth because it is the teeth which makes the sound, but the cause lies in the mouth when you speak. The chat- tering occurs in spite of the will or brain. You have little control over it, and can stop it only by clinching the teeth. It is really a mild variety of spasm caused by the cold, which acts on the Jjaw muscles in much the same way that some poisons produce muschlar spasms which cannot be controlled.
