Then Mr. Davis resumed his argument and when he mentioned standard time there was faint applause, succeeded by shouts of “question.” Again Chairman Pettis’ gavel quieted the meeting to allow Mr. Davis to pro- cede, and the leading die-hard continued, ralsing another laugh when he told about 2 lawyer who had to sit down to figure out his appointments. Mr. Davis read a letter gent. him from FEast Orange favoring standard time, This man signed his name, said Mr. Davis. When the speaker proposed to read some poetry from the letter the town hall shook with laughter again, and repeated the uproar when he told them he would soon be through. But he read the poetry anyway. Mr. Davis went on to speak of what Wwas going on in New York, and what a California legislator said. There was another outburst of ‘laughter when he read something about the children fall- ing asleep in scheol. Mention of Plain- fieid gave the signal for more laughter, Mr. Davis told of children being foroed out of bed to go to school and asked your home hampered that way?" got “No “Well, I guess you sleep out- doors,” he retorted. Shouts of “Good !” grested his remark that he was going to close though there was much more that he might say, and he sat down amid more applause. H. H. Gallup took the floor, hemarking that this was the largest and finest town meeting he had ever seen In Norwich, but he didn’t suppose the people present had come here to be entertained by be- ing told about what was going on in New York, Washington, California, or even Plainfield (applause.)

They gave her shells. Wishing to give them something she asked them to come pick flowers with her. The nymphs said they coild. not I'va o lard. “'rosverpina had. pieked a1 amrnst of flowary and was re- turning to the shore, when she saw a very beautiful flower. She stooped\ to pluck it. Suddenly the earth opened and Pluto came up in his chariot of gold, drawn by aix coal black horses. Seelng Prosperpine, he pulled her up on the seat beside him. whipped up his horses and dashed down under the ground. ‘When Demeter returned to her home Prosperpine 4id not rush out and meet her, She started looking for her daugh- ter. When she came to the sea she found the nymphs crying. In excited tones they told her all. Demeter hid in @ dark cave and would not come cut. The plants and animals began to dis, the grass turned yellow. Tt looked as if the land would soon be in a desolats state if ghe did not go around and make things grow. Zeus became alarmed and sent his messenger. Hermes, to Pluto. Pluto agreed that- Prosperpine could g6 to her mother eight months and the re- maining four months with him.
