Big rision makes big men If Christ had a vision for the Jews only he would have been a small Christ; his vision compassed the world. We need to sing a mnew song. that s we need, to sing with a new spirit, and that with the spirit of joy, that God through Christ has sawved us from our sins We read of a new Heaven and a new earth, and while some day there will be a new Teaven and earth, if we are In the right relatioh with the infinite, wa Wil certainly have a new appreciation of these things and to us truly the heavens will e- clare His glory, and the firmament will show His handiwork We must put mew emphasis on the passage, “Love thy neigh- bor as thyself” and we must realize that many of our neighbors are far away from our immediate neighborhidod We must remember that we, if we are fully saved are indeed creatures In Christ, and there- fore our lives should be far different from the unsaved about us, The Bible speaks of God glving His children “a new name’ not that the name by which we are known will be changed, but we must so Hve as that when our names are mentioned they may stand in the community for all that is highest and best.

Between $50 and $60 was ralized from the members who had earned the money for this meeting. It was very amusing to hear of the @ifférent ways in which the mon- ey had heen ralged. A vote was taken to contribute a sum of monev to the W. W. Rackus hospital. A committe was appointed to take charge of the re- freshments to be perved at the annual meeting of the church on the 17th of this month. Refyeshments were served by the hostesses.

The morning hours of court were wcuplbd With conferences between State Attorney’ H. A. Hull, Public Dé- fender Charles L. Stewart, and attorneys for the prisoners, but in the afternoon a number of accused men were presented for sentence. George Arel, accused of theft of an automobile on Sept. 28 from William . ‘Thomas at Groton, was given a sentence of not less than 18 months nor more than five years in (e oo al Weth- ersfield. * Arel had denied t_o the court on Tues- ‘day that his real name was Joseph S. Coster and that he had been i & raform- atory in Massachusetts, but. he admittea it Wednesday. In pronouncing sentence, Judge James H. Webb said he could see 1o grounds for showing leniency to a man who had deceived the court and his own counsel. ' Stole Jewelry and Clothing. Fred Stamm cha his plea to guilty of theft of a quantity of jewelry and clothing from Rhis brofher's home in Baltic on March 30th. Public Defender Stewart asked for a reformatory sen- tence for the man. but Major Hull toid the court Stamm had a Jong record, that had included forgery, escape from jail and deserting his wife and living with another woman. ' Stamm had been exam- ined by Dr. F. S.

Becanse of Jewett City Liquor. Daniel Cahill, 43, of Monson, Mass., and Frank L. Kennedy,.23, of Manches- ter, were each ‘given_.nine months in jail for the theft of $60 from Frank Grenier of Jewett City on Nov. 7. They Dbeen charged with robbery with a stipefying drug, but they were allowed to pleac guilty to robbery. It Was indicated that the smell of a drug which permeated the Grenier house came from the lquor that the two men had been drinking and which they said was the canse of their downfall. © Attorney Thomas M. Shields spoke for Cahlll and Attorney A. B. Davies for Kennedy. Cahill gave the court quite an explanation of the efr- cumstances on his own account, and Judge Webb said he was disposed to think the viclous liguor they had been drinking was largsiy to blame. Another Jewett City Case. Libby Deviller ~leaded guilty to simple assauit and was Jiven six months in jail, with sentence suspended, and he was put in charge of Probation Officer Mansfield. Fublic Defender Stewart explained that the man had Doarded for two years with Mrs. Mary Potts in Jewett City and that last September he attempted, while drunk, to cut her Wwith a knife, but she blued for these muu-n.

Joseph Dumas, 23, a carpenter, was given four months in.j=fl, with sentence suspended under _probation, wWhen he pleaded guilty to attempted burglary at Azarie Dion's store in Glasgo on the night of Sept. 13. Attorney Stewart told the court that the man had an excellent record and was working as a carpenter in Glasgo when he went to the Dion store to get some- thing to eat. He had a plece of a spring from an automobile and was trying to pry up the window with this when the window broke and alarmed Mrs. Dion, who recognized the man trying to get in.

A ve y great interest was manifested as he spoke con- vincingly and with much interest. He said in part This is an age of reason. Man more than gver says “Give me a reason for the hope that is within you.” Man has ceased believing simply because somcons else believes. I believe the Bible to be God's book because it has stood the test of the ages. It has been attacked, mocked, criticized throughout time, and that by some very sharp intellects. You man search all lit- erature but in vain for a literature that has had such severe attacks as the Bible The accused man, siid Attorney Stew- art, had been in the clutches of a disso- lute woman who was taking all his eal ings and had driven him to desperation. Fortunately neither of them had died from their wounds although Pastore stlll car- ried a bullet in his head. His record haa been excelient. The public defender agk- ed the judge to be as lenient s possible and give a jaii sentence. State Attorney Hull remarked that it was always proper. he supposed, to blame it on the woman, but this man was mar- ried, had left his wife and taken up wit! this woman. He thought a shert jail sentence would be extremely improper. If it were to be a jail sentence it should be the limit. Florence Joyce was in eourt with her father. bas had. You cannot destroy it.

The story, as'it is told on the streets, does not re- flect a great deal of credit on the In- genuity of the local men connected with the affair, The story is, that only a short time ago two men from out of town approach- ed a local man or men in regard to pur- chasing jsome whiskey or near-whiskey. The mbn were informed that the “hooeh” could be procured for them and they readily agreed to pay a price re- ported to be far in excess of the mar- ket value. The temptation of a little easy money quieted the fears of the lo- cal men that everything was mot all right. 'The deal was made with one proviso. It was this proviso that caused the local men much chagrin and put a substantial crimp in the profits from the illegitimate business. The buyers insisted that in .order to complete the deal and the delivery of the goods they must be transported to beyond the city limits as the visiting men sald that the Norwich officials were always on the alert and they desired to take mo risk in oarting the liquor through the city. The local dealer agreed and an automobile was loaded with thg alleged “hooch” and driven to the out- skirts of the city where the transfer was to take place. The automobile of the buyers followed closely the machine carrying the contraband liquor. The driver of the local machine assisted in the transfer of the goods from one ma- chine to the other and was then ready to recefve the price ‘of the Mquor. The game at this point stood two to one in favor of the buyers of the li- quor, an advantage they made good use of, One of the men, while the other was making a pretense of counting out the money, slipped around to the front of the local man's machine and stealthily stole the switch key from the machine. Then he quietly returned to the rear of the machine, wWhere his partner was still counting out the mon- ey and took his position directly in the rear of the loeal man. Not a word was spoken hetween the two men, but sud- | denly the man with the money gave the local man a, violent push and a conven- fent leg completed the local man's down- fal, Wil the Worwich man was re- covering himself the other two men got into their car and drove off., The local man ran for his machine“and climbed in ready to follow the other car but was unable to start his own because of the stolen switch key. It is reported that two unknown men have about $1,560 worth of liquor that cost them only time and gasollne while Norwich is rfd of just that much hooch. It is a sadder but wiser dealer in ‘con- traband lquor that is looking for two men ih an automobile who want to pur- chase his wares_for high prices. This local man is not the only one.who has been made the vietim, of dishonora- Dble bootleggers, for In the little borough of Jewett, City the bu{é‘ and not the seller was the victim. If this case a cer- tain Jewett City man purchased In good faith a number of five-galion cans of What he supposed to be alcohol. He was given the privilege of tasting the goods before he paid for them. Appar- ently they tasted good for it is said he passed over the meney. But hewas due for a rude awakening from his dreams of quick and largyg vrofits for when he more thoroughly inspected his purchase he found that each can contained an- other ean cleverly soldered into the big container. The little can held about a quart and a pint of alcohol while the largpr comtainer was filled with water and not spring water at that. ett City man paid a good price for h@‘ mixture of alecohol and water.

ICE-COATED STREETS MADE TRAVEL FULL OF PERIL A slight drizzle which started early Wednesday evening and continued until late in the evening put the streets and highways in the eastern. part of the state into a condition that filled the hearts of those that had to travel them TEACHER AND CHILDREN in automobiles with fear.

Thig publication, called the New Woman boldly states as its object the reform of the old society to give a more hon- orable place to women and the new woman is described as “a joyous be- ing, of honest oocupation, complets personality, fr'-e. independent and mu- tually | helpful,” says the Pittsburgk Dispatch . Yet the new woman o f China comeg in for some criticism, for among the things she is exhorted to cultivate are piain living and dressing, which, the writer goes on to say, was the rule ia old China, but that now women wish wear clean clothing. Another ad- monition to the new woman of China ! whicn mikht indicate she, is prone te err, just like the new wdman of any other land, is that she put far away from her the desire for empty glory of “face.” In other respects the things eom- mended for the new woman seem tq be along the same lines as in other lands—the cultivation of strength of wil 1 to go cutside the home anr min- gle with others and tak e part in pub« lic affairs and to discard the clinging vine habit of locking to the men for everything.
