TOWN MEETING TONIGHT. Along with other things much is said about high taxation. Tonight iy the.town hall at the ad- journed anfual town meeting the tax- payers of Norwich will have an oppor- tunity to say what they wish to have CIREUBARON WEEK ENDING OCT. 1st, 1921 11,745 spent during the next twelve months. Frequenitly it is the case that those who fail to attend such meetings are hesrd in protest against action taken regarding the propositions presented. at such a time. Such criticism comes with poor grace. Those who are opposed as well as those who are in favor of the respective” items in the call for the meeting should make it a point to be in NIGHT SCHOOLS. With the opening of the night schools here this evening there begins a season not school those who appreciate the need of being able to read and write in ought not of instruction for those who have had the advantages of a public education, or the English ‘anguage, to be neglected. Much has been accomplished night schools but there is still which by the vlenty of enportunity for them to continue the attendance and present their reasons why any of the matters should not be approved or learn possibly why there is a reason for any of the expenditures at this time. The town meeting is the open forum where matters connected with the run- ning of the town ought to have full and free discussion, That discussion or the action resulting therefrom ought to be participated in by more than a sprinkling of citizens. Let it be under- stood that this is the time when it is yame excellent service of the past if| jogireq that the people be heard from. the advantages offered are only im-lmyars re certaln appropriations that proved.

Make it what it should be. Do vour mart to make it a revre- sentativa gathering. It is unreasonab'e to expect that the town officials can bring the taxes down Aside from the certain fixed charges which must be met ahyway it rests with the taxpayvers to say what will be spent during the coming year and there- fore what” the tax rate will amount to, and it is at the town meeting that such action must be taken.

Beef cooked in a fireless cooker is not salted until done. Bread sponge that sets the least bit too long may be sour. Browned breadcrumbs and cream are delicious for breakfast. The salad dressing should be added just before serving. A soft soap eraser will remove mer- cury from gold jewelry. Old paint stains on a carpet can be dissolved with spirits of turpentine. Use very fine wire for sewing but- tons on heavy overcoats. Stand potatoes in hot water a few minutes before baking to. hasten the process. When darning a large hole sew net over the hole and darn through the net. Asparagus and shrimps, marinated with French dressing, make a delici- ous salad. When you light the oven to do your baking or roasting, fill your teakettle and set it on top of the oven. Then you will have hot water without us- ing an extra burner. In making tomato salad with gela- tin add celery cut into fine pleces and the flavor of your salad will be much improved. An excellent pie material may be added to the winter store of canned goods by combining one-third rhubarb ~=a two-thirds elderberries. This com- bination is many times mistaken for huckleberries. WATER TEST OF EGGS As an egg gets older the water con- tained in the white evaporates and this causes the empty space at the thick end of the egg to become enlarged. The more the egg rises in the water, until in the course of time it floats. Placed in water, an egg, if remain at the boitcm of the v , if not quite fresh, the big end will rise higher than the small end, and the higher the big end is raised the older the egg is.

A DAMP CELLAR You can cure cellar dampness in the following way: Take one pound of rough kitchen salt, powder it and di- ide into four portions. Procure four old tins and put the salt in them and stand in the cellar. The salt air will attract the moisture from the aij As soon as it becomes saturated with moisture stand the tins on the warm stove. The heat will cause the water to evaporatg and leave the salt dry and The ready for use again. When potatoes have to be stored in a cellar this plan | should always be adopted, as it helps tc prevent the potatoes sprouting. HEALTH AND BEAUTY Straws may be used in giving li- Guids to sick children when they can- not be moved. Glass tubes are casily broken but a bundle of straws such as used at soda fountains may be pur- ed at small cost. Lemon juice is good for hair, par- ticularly light bhair. And it tends to sions of | treaty that we should | give it that clean look and smell whizh i5 desirable. The pulp of the lemon can be fubbed right on the scalp with- out injury. Many women who weigh about what they should and who live moderately active lives are badly developed in the calf of the leg and the ankle. There seems to be no particular reason for this unless it is that they have never taken sufficient leg exercises. Usually weaning of a baby from the breast should be begun at 9 or 10 months of age by substituting one fead- ing a day for one nursing, later two feedings and thus gradually the child is to be taken from the breast al- together. Generally at 1 year the weaning should be completed. In summer it may be advisable to nurse an infant a little longer rather than wean in weather; but in quality, it is advisable to complete the weaning. MADE OF RIBBON A twine- ball cover may be made from an odd piece of silk or ribhon. Use six pieces of ribbon or silk and make them one and one half :inches wide and eleven inches lo Two pieces of different colors may be us- ed. Whip the strips together close- ly for the depth of the ball to be in- closed, leaving loops at the top and fringed ends at the bottom. Gathér the double loops with a strong thread and draw down securely. Suspend with a piece of narrow ribbon and place the nual town meeting. The man on the corner says: Cooler weather will make the corners less at- tractive for the busy idlers. —_— “Japan stops smoking,” says a head- line. But from indications there are times when it gets vretty warm. Don’t forget that the adjourned an- nual town meeting is to be held tonight. The business before it is your business. It is through the town meeting that the citizens give expression to their likes and dislikes. That is the time and place to he heard. e T National Fire Prevention day should deve'op a quickening of interest in its purpose to such an extent that more thought will be given to it. Professor Pickering found that fislds of foliage on the moon vanished after cleven days. Perhaps Jack Frost is hanging around those diggings. When the prosecuting attorney of Bristol sets out to clean up the town regarding liquor selling he tackles a hard job but he apnears to be in ear- nest and he shou'd get the back of the law-abiding element. ‘Word to the effect that there is no danger of a coal shortage is a bit cheering probably to the fellow who hasn't or cannot put in his winter’s sup- ply, but no assurance is given that the price will néot advarce.

Stripes of colored lining were laid over the fur and the mend- tissue and the joining was accomplish- ed and proved strong enough for the purpose for which the fur was in- tended. BLOUSES LOOSE AND FLOWING With the aid of the sleeve, the ef- fect of most of the blouses shown are a flowing one, though the models are built on fairly simple foundations. The collarless type is paramount, wita ov er the skirt finish. In the latter de= tail there are the straight overblouses the simple tie-backs and the banded styles. In the straight blouses the most frequently noted are thosz that are made extra long. In addition to the sleeve for added grace of line, cape backs are noted with deep bertha. CHILDREN'S DRESSES Bright wool frabrics either in one { color or in checks or plaids, are much used for children’s dresses, with em- broidery and_ braiding as the trim- ming. One chic frock recently seen was of red dnd white in about a half- inch check. It was§ trimmed with a scrool design in narrow red Soutache braid. DICTATES OF FASHION Plitinum caractl is miuch in ‘de- mand for coats dnd trimming this fall. Fitch js used for and dresses. Almond green is a ing in favor. Velvet is much in it collaring coats new color gain- vogue for the is heayily bead- ¢ fed, but mote often rlain. Al shades of rose and red are ing. : Low-heeled shoes are the rule ex- cept for dress wear and even then -heéls are nothing like as high are for- merly. ey Trailing scarfs and draperiés are features of the newest evening gowns and seem to argue a return of the train, Many fur coats have the bishop sleeve. The petal bodice has arrived; petal skirts having been exceedingly popu- lar, the petal bodice now bids for fa- vor. Much velvet is anticipated for fall, velvet suits and dresses as well as hats. Flying squirrel is being used ex- tensively for trimming suits and coats. All-black costumes of net, char- meuse and Canton crepe have selid black accessories. Bodices are trans- parent and sleeves short. It is an interesting trick to wear a narrow ribbon about the waist to match the ribbon on the hat. Long sleeves, with open underdrm seam, fall away from the arm and are held to the wrist by a narrow band. Canton and crepe de chine onepiece dresses are popular worn with match- ing capes lined in georgette of a con- trasting shade. 1 modish for even- o e * GOWNS OF CREPE AND VELVET Crepe, velvets and brocades are, the specialties of one manufacturer. Sev- eral of their black evening gowns are made up with lace, while after- noon frocks are shown plain and some- times with beads. Side drapes of lace, . which ex- tend from the shoulder to the hem and form tiny sleeves, characterize a black costume of Canton crepe which has in- serts of the same lace in straight lines down the front. A navy Canton srepe has side drapes heavily beaded in red. Lines of the same beads outline the collar, cuffs and shoulders. Three tiers of white crystal beads in long loops cover the entire skirt of a Cantoh crepe gown built on straight lines. One tier of loops covers the waists supplemented with bands of designs in the beads. A black chiffon velvet with long bodics straight in front and gathered at the sides, features a curved hem, longer at the sides than in the back and front. In brocadede chiffon, two deep turquoise frocks are shown, one with a scalloped tunic over an underskirt of the same color in charmeuse, and the other with the flower design of the brocade on the lower part of the skirt emphasized by blue beads. A dress witlf a separate cape is shown in brown Canton crepe. The bodice is long waisted and plain with a corded belt and long side panels. he cape is of the gsame color and also ain, except for the ecordel border of the wide collar and the bottom. NEEDLEWORK NOTES A pretty pair of curtains for the pink bedroom may be made of white dimity, hemstitchéd and picot-edged in pink. If there is a jagged tear in your um- brella, instead of trying to darn it use court plaster on the inside. This will last quite a while unless rains are too heavy, and will show less than darning. ~ ‘When a rip has come in a rain coat which is good otherwise put a piece of adhesive phaster on under side just a bit larger than the slit and the coadt will be as good as new. ‘When a coat is frayed on the ‘front edgeés remove buttons.

On heavy -cloth and where shank buttons are used the end of the slit nearest the edge is rotinded so the button will rest flatly in the buttonhole. GOWNS RECENTLY SEEN Black chiffon and black lace were combined in a smart dinher gown re- cently seen. This wa$ a panel -frock according pleated panels of chiffon be- ing hung over a satin foundation, with shorter panels of lace over the wide sleeves falling away from the arms. They were of chiffon and edged with lace. Another gown of Grecian type seen at dinner was of georgettes in a love- ly shades of gray, the skirt banded with silver and the girdle of cloth of silver. Lace and beaded robes for evening wear are being revived for the com- ing season. This style means that the home dressmaker may have things her be draped or fittéd over a foundation dertaken. These robes simply have to own way when an evening gown is un- and the frock i# ready to be worn. LINGERIE AND LACE A ney French collection of lingerie dresses is soon to be brought to thi. country in which it is said that bro- derie Anglaise and Valesciennes laces are especially important. In both man- ufactured and exclusive groups laces and chiffons are quite prominent again the latter in bright colors and soft drapes and the former more often in black or metal effects. The dance frocks are reported selling well. A collection of models recently brought from Italy, introduces the cape or hood style of the Capucine as well as some ecclestical ideas and dress- makers of Turin and Milan are quoted as creating goyns of distinctive charm.

ODD iNCIDENTS IN AMERICAN FISTORY lic press are filled with stores as to how the Christmas Day was spent throuhout the land, and it might be interesting to look back upon a Christ- mas Day at Mount Vernon, with the Father of His Country as host, and his charming wife as hostess .Christ- mas at Mount Vernon in the peaceful day which follwed the Revolutionary war was always exceedingly merry. The Virginians of those days being cavalier made the most of the holi- day which the grim Pilgrim of New ‘England practically ignored. Though invariably stern, Washing- ton could unbend considerably on such an oceasion. Mount Vernon was al- ways crowded at this period, and thé celebration was of a luxurious char- acter. The Christmas dinner was serv ed at 3 o'clock in the “banquet hall” and probably no fewer than thirty persons sat down to the repast. For this special occasion the host- ess alway got out her handsome ser- vice of pure silver, most of which-had belonged to her when, as the widow Custis, she married Mr Washington and there was also a big display of cut glass. An oddly as nowadays it wou'd be table, upon which all the dishes to considered, was the arrangement of thé be served ineluded even the puddings and pi were placed at once. No wonder that in such days the festive beard was said to ‘groan’ beneath the weight of the viands. As a matter of course, at the Chr mas dinner, as well as all other occa-: sions, the table was waited upon by glaves, who did duty as house servants Two were allotted to each guest, so that quite a numbeér were required. All of the ecatables had to- bé conveyed a considerable distance, the Kkitchen being detached from the mansion with which it was connected by a covered way . At the housese of the great Virgin- ia families at that period it was cus- tomary for the slaves to wait on the table in the ordinary plantation garb. But at Mount Vernon many things were on a scale of exceptional lux- ury and the negroes who performed such service were clad in Washing- | tons livery of red, white and gold. which was handsome and striking.

Af a cértain period of the meal it s Washington's custom to rise hi§ chair, Holding a glass of Ma- deira in his hand, and bowing right and left to say, “Gentlémen, 1 drink to my guests!” The natural reme at the instance of the most distin - @d guest presént was & healtn dfunk to Lady Waskington. I'ollowing the dinfer a good, long evening was m:Culzed in wih 8- tiniés appropriate to Christmas. Kind mar’s tuff and hunt the slipper were not safficiently undignified in the eves of Washington to be indulged :n. The Washington family Christmas gifts were exhilited, and Neilie Curtis was always calied upon to play on ker vischord. A colored fiddler, one of the slaves n the plantation, in picturesque plantation garb, would be called in at a certain périod, and when he would start some merry music the youhg people ¢hoose partners for the dance. But the 6lder ladies and gentiemen pre- ferréd cards. Small stakes wére usval- 1y indulged in. but gamblirxz for mon- éy to & considerable amount was al- ways most objectionible to Washing- ton. As for Mrs. Washingion, she would inariab! nier into none of host to part of her guests wiho would not care to indulge 1a elther dancinzg or cards. It was at a late hour on the morn- ing following Christmas that the guests would take their departure and the ‘Washington household wouil quiet down to their ordinary routine. (Tomorrow—Royal Visitors to Ameri- ca.) READ YOUR CHARACTER By Digby Phillips, Copyrighted 1921 Vertical Handwriting Fow would you wake your appeal to a man or woman whd wiites a ~ettical hawi? V'Fat methods wouid you adopt to persuade such a person to anything. Would a dramatic appeal to sympa- thy bé effective, or the stimulation of an immfulse or feeling at the psychol- ogical moment? h Such tactics might stand a fair chance of achieving the object, but not so good as in the case of the person who writes a normal forward- slanting hand. Vertical writing indicatés that the writér is more than normally infla- enced by reason, judgment and salf- interest, in most of his or her actions. That is, it indicates it providing the vertical hand is a natural one and not merely the result of training. The way fo catch the difference between the twé is in hastily written messages. It i8 then that the natural tefidency creps out in a slght variation of the slaat of the letters from the writer's nor- mal hand. Vertical writers, however, are by no means lacking in the average amount of sympathy ,or impuise. But their writing indicates that reason and judg- ment also eénter into their decisions.
