POWER PLANT Beer vats were the cause of consid- erable trouble to Contractor David Ahern of Willimantic in Rockville. The trouble occurred at the Rockville-Willimantic Lighting Co., where Mr. Ahern has a contract to set up six beer vats as ofl containers. His contract stipulates that jthe vats must be taken from the rafl- road tracks at West street to the gas plant and set wp. The second vat was being taken there Wednesday and came near destroying the plant. The vats hold 15,000 gallons and are ten feet six inches in dlameter and 20 feet long, weighing seven tons. While one vat was being rolled into the statlon yard 't got away from the ten workmen handling it and struck a guy wire which holds up the new 75-foot smoke stack. This stack is connected with the 75. horsepower boiler which is used durfi the summer. Being unable to stop the rolling vat, the men had to let it take its course. The guy wire snapped. The stack fell and crushed the new roof on a coal shed. If the stack had faller. in the opposite direction the slate roof would have been crushed. The stack narrowly missed the 23,00 volt high ten- sion power wires. The vats ‘were recently bought at a brewery in Worcester. A special per- mit was necessary to transport them over the raflroad because of their size. “The damage to the plant was estimated at from $400 to $500.

Many were the expressions of approval of the blll at the Davis theatre for the last half of the week after Thursday evening’s performenc(. Many said it was the best bil they had seen in some time and that it was worth seeing. The general opinion was that the trained dog act on the bill was the best that had ever been seen in Norwich and others remarked on the clever and unigue He- brew sketch “Getting the Money."” The whole bill at the theatre is well balanced” and there is not one poor act on the programme. The opening act. which on any other bill would be a headliner, is ight Life tn Paris” en- tirely acted by dogs. The act is in two scenes, gpening with a cabaret scene and closing with the arrival home scene. The dogs take thelr parts without one word from their master and act with almost human intelligence, The headliner is the Hebrew act, Har- rv Mason and Co, in “Getting the Money.” This act is one of unual merit and is filled with real clean hu- mor from start to finish and corftains a varfety that is hard to equal. The Royal Four, a rube quartette, with good voices ‘have a good singing num- ber with several solos had a gcod line of rural humor. This act took well as did the single varlety entertainer. McCluskey is a nov- el ventriloquist with a finish that has hardly ever been seen on the local stages. The fifth act is John and Babe Milly In.a novel singing and dancing act.

Sections are being reserved in the auditorium so that all guests will be sure to have seats. In his sermon Thursday night Chap- lain Kernahan said in part: Every person who is determined to ltve a_suocesstul Christian life in.the year, 1922 must be able to see God and to hear Ged and obey God. We must be able to sae God. Wa say that “seeing God” i3 the source and sa- cret of all true courage. What do we mean by really seeing God? As soon as we own that the sight of the bodily eye is impossible, we own that thera Is a fig- urative clement in the expression. T see God may be separsted Ints these three elements: First, it Is to recognize His character as the ruling law of the universe. The qual- ities of God we know. He s righteous!. Just loving, trife, pw Now when yout €YeS aTe ovened ; you seo these divine prin: ciples running averywhere, We see that God's character is the rul- ing factor of the universe when wa ob- serve His justice. God 1s just. In spita of many experiences which seem cruel, God is loving. The measure of greatness In any Iving thing is sensittveness to suffer- ing. A stone suffers not at all, it has no Ufe. The oysten- suffers a Mttie, it has a single nerve. The bird is higher and suf- fers for two or three days when its nest is robbed. Higher still the deer, who gne everywhere, moaning for its fawn, #nd whose suffering lasts for weeks. The Indian mother is higher and re- members her babe' through the summer and winter. But what sensitiveness comes when the Christian mother ap- pears. Her mother-love worships her babe ‘almost as a form of divinity. God doth not forget His sinnipg sons and daughters. Higher than the mother's and more sensitive is the heaft of God. Another quality of God is truth. One quick observation forever closes the ar- gument as to whether God is true or not. God's greatest beauty is his sublime and fragrant purity. We do not nesd to Awall long upon these qualities of righteousmess, justi ael Cherrick, old son of Mr. and Mr: of Salem, who had hand amputated at osoital while the nurses wers not watching.

The two are fne in essence but different in apprehension. Thirdly, and still more to ses God is to be conscious of our own spiritual rela- tions to Him, to know as a comfort and a motlve that he loves us, to be surround- ed with his comopanionship, to find that what we do depends not merely upon what he is but upon his being present with us; in a word, to love cur Father with an, active love that is a life for which the devout soul finds no adequate ! description but that it is “sesing God."
