Coples of the annual handboek of Quinebaug Pomoma grange have been issued and are now being made available to the membership of the organization. The, book is filled with information per- taining to the osganization. It contains much statistical matter relativé to mem- bership, Hst of officers, bydawws, list of regular meetings for ‘the year and other information. Having eonedal something as the re- sult of protests here, and re-established the custom of opening its passenger sta- tion Sunday everings just before train time, citizens are hoping that the New York, New Haven and Hfrtford Ralilrdad tompany will go a step farther and per- mit the baggageman to unlock the v-u- ing room of the station ings while people are there wumn‘ tur the early northbound train. At Mrs. W. A. Colwell’s State avenue, Goodyear, at the weekly meeting of the whist club, John Buckley and Mrs. George Fairchld won first honors, while Mrs. J. W.

Some bed clothing-served as a wrap for Mrs. Williams until she could be brought to the home of relatives in Dan- ielson. Mr. Williams managed to save his barn and stock. It is understood that the house, which was burned to the ground, was imsured for $300 and the furniture that it contained for $500. The glow of the flames could be plainly seen in Danielson, but those who watch- ed belleved the fire was much farther away frem the borough than really was the case. This is believed to have been due to the fog that was prevailing at the time. The impression gained here was that the fire was somewhere in Pomfret. No definite idea of how the fire start- ed was advanced during Tuesday. but there is a theory that it might have been caused by a defective chimney. Attention is called by one of Killingly’s well known citizens to the fact that there is more than one side to the matter of the tuberculin test for dairy cows, about which considerable has appeared in The Bulletin's colurrns of late This citizen points out that the tuber- culin test is mot always an infallible guide to show the condition of a cow's health, and that in advanced cases of i la of a herd may mot be a herd free from dis- ease. It is held, too, that the chance of con- tracting bovine tuberculosis by the use of milk from a tuberoular cow is so re- mote, if at all possible, as to be almost negligible. This question has been discussed at length in a recent issue of one of the best known farm publications in the country, and views radically differing from those of test advocates set forth. The matter is one in which the public has become more keenly interested than anything within recent memory pertain- Goodyear Sunday. Sunday school will foliow “this service.

The Israel Putnam school is over- crowded at the present time, as it has been for several years. That the pres- et condition cannot be allowed to exist indefinitely and that some provision must be made for expansion is fully realized by members of the town school commit- tee, which body will have provided an opportunity for the cltizens to pass at least upon .the matter of procuring ad- ditional land through the speclal town meeting that probably will be held in the near future.

We have a great document called our Constitution, many wise men say it is the greatest human document ever writ- ten: doubtless Almighty God-by His spirit influenced the men who wrote it.

The human will oftimes stands in the way of harmony. T is the Lenten geason and we. are supposed to think especiallv during these days of Jesus Thrist, the great Son of God. What was His programme for harmony? Was it “every man for himself, and the devil take the hindmost?* No, no, His programme of life was, “whatsoever ye would that men should do unto you, do ye_even so to them.” ‘We certainly have a great America, but how much greater she would be if every man Instead of thinking of him- self so much should begin to think more of ‘the other man. If we dld this would it make any difference in our country, in our town, in our shops. In our homes? The foundation of our gov- ernment is not in Washineton, it is In Why this dis- the homes of the country. Suppose when we go home tonizht that we begin to practice the Golden Rule, and by so doing contribute our full share of har- mony to the home life., You may ask How can we do this? T reply thers is but one secret and that secret is found in the following of Jesus Christ: let us all swing Into line with His will, and then we will contribuute our full share to the harmony of our will, &nd then we will contrfbute our full share to the harmony of our country, our shop, our home and to life generally, and when we are gone someone' wil say that we made the world better for having lived fn it.
