The prospect of maintaining the milk supply seems about at satisfactory. Dairy and Food Commissioner Thomas Holt was engaged Monday in making a survey of the milk situation throughout the state for the emergency committee. He has found that not only can the needs of the larger cities in- Connecticut be met but that the farmers need not fear that they will lose their market as cities within truck distance outside the state will be only too glad to send trucks into Con- necticut to collect the surplus local sup- ply. Th applies particulaly to the eastern half of the state, where the farmers are now dependent on rail ship- ments to Providence and Boston. Milk produced in the western portion of the state cen easily be shipped to New Haven, Bridgeport, Waterbury or Hartford by truck and in centra: Connec- ticut most of the millk is handled by truck already. Commissioner Holt has every confidence that no one in Connecti- cut need go without a regular milk sup- ply because of the strike. In the report on the activities of the chamber of commerce, the governor was informed that the state chamber has al- ready written to each local chamber in the state requesting its co-operation in the general effort to break the strike, The local chambers Rave been asked to canvass their territories for men who 1will be available as railway workers in case the New Haven is obliged to make extensive use of new men. The committee wWhich reported to the governor consists of Robert Scoville, chairman; E. C. Buckland of the New Haven, Thomas W. Russell of West Hart- ford and Howell Cheney of South Man- chester. _— HELPING HANDS HOLD FIRST SOCIAL'OF THE SEASON The Helping Hands, auxiliary to the Spiritual Union, held their first social event of the season Monday evening in the parlors of the Spiritual Academy on Park street.

The parlors were prettily decorated wi§: jJack-o-lanterns and witches, the color scheme being yellow and black. All joined heartily in the games, the winners being awarded priz- es.

In the Hartford Times, they describe some of the experi- ences as follows “During our stay in Paris, the French national holiday, July 14, was celebrated and for mearly a week the traffic from the section of ‘Heaven and Hell,' 80 called, as far as Sacre Coeur, was seeth- ing mob of merry makers. In the fash: jonable quarters of Paris excitement was high with fireworks, cheering or parades, but in the poorer section which we visited with a bodyguard of French friends, wild, almost maniacal gaiety abounded. Ev- erywhere there were merry-go-rounds or carrousels, groups of wild-haired women and soldiers who walked seven or eight in a row, arms around each other or inter- locked roughly breaking through the crowd, swaying an dsinging in half drunkenness. “The cafes were overcrowded, their tables and chairs far out into the street, where women and children sat with the men drinking foaming glasses of beer. blond et brune. Hgre and there a ghast- 1y creature was sech smoking a cigarette, the carmine on her lips making a brilliant stain on the stub of what in London would be called a Woodbine. “And then there was the dancing! The mausic was Bacchanalian, wild, to which men and women, with cries and shouts, swayed in a small cleared space on the street corners. The odors were 'terriffic, garlic predominating and making one think of the odors of the city of Cologne. ‘We heard the merry-makers going home about 4 o'clock in the morning. “The battlefields were .thrilling and horrible. We saw Chateau Thierry, Belleau Woods, Rheims, Soissons and many ruined villages where the inhal tants were still living in holes in a hill or wandering through ruins, endeav- oring to collect the stones belonging to their homes. “We crossed the Marne on-a tempor- ary bridge the original bridge having been blown up by the Americans to keep the Germans from rushing down the hill, crossing the river and getting into Cha- teau Thierry. It was here that some of the terrible fighting took place and the river ran blood for seven hours. “Up on the hjll,\near Belleay Wood is a large Amerighn cemetery where many bodies were being - tinterred, piaced in rough boxes, packed in a huge truck rushed down the hill across the rattling | bridge over the Marne to the railroad station in Chateau Thierry. We saw a sreat number of American cemeteries, many of the graves being decorated by the peasants with poppies and other wild flowers. “At the bottom of the dugomts which we entered, near the Aisne river, is a section which had been no-man’s land. There “were bits of decaying clothing, leather straps and an overpowering stench. Here, on no-man’s land the ruin' and devastation were absolute.
