Education of the public to the nec- essity of this step was the most con- structive action which the commis- sion could take at the present time when it is definitely known that there will be no anthracite coal on the mar- ket for winter consumption, he declar- ed. Those persons who delay buying in the hope that later they will be able to procure their ordinary supply of anthracite, are likely to get “stung” altogéther. “There is nothing more constructive that the state can do,” said Thomas W. Russel, advisor to the commission, “than get people to realize that procrastination will be useless and that resignation’to the inevitable is the best policy.” During the war, he said, people with the money were able to get anthra- cite at prohibitive prices at the ex- pense of the less prosperous consumer, whereas now there is no anthracite ayailable at any price for rich or poor. The commission is considering a} plan whereby demonstrations will be given under its direction of how to use soft coal alone, or soft and an- thracite mixed in household furnaces built for anthracite consumption. Reghrding the flurry of surprise which the announcement that the commission was considering the ad- dition of an extra charge of twenty- five cents per ton to pay expenses had evoked among persons who wondered what use the commission could have for so much money, Mr. Russell said that the problem of fuel tl‘ansporla—’ tion was & highly technical one which | required a great deal more expense! than people thought. “From the time the coal is mined in West Virginia by the government unti lit reaches the furnaces of the domestic consumer, it passes through 4 great many hands and how to get it 1o the furnace of the domestic con- sumer is no small problem,” he ex- plained. NEW WILSON LINE STEAMER EXPECTED TODAY The new Wilson Line steamer, the Major L Enfant, will probably start in commission on the local line to New | York city today (Saturday). Word to that effect was received from New York | Friday at the headquarters of the W son line at the Fisher’s Island Naviga. tion Company's pier in New London The new craft supplants the steamer Norland which has been in commission on the line for some months. The new craft is said to be larger, | speedier and more up-to-date than the | Norland and one that will assure better service and permit expansion of the company’s business. Since being acquired by the Wilson | line the Major L. Enfant has heen tied | up at New York city where some alter-! ations of a minor nature have been made. FLETCHIZR POST ARMISTICE PAY COMMITTEE MED The extcutive committee of Fletcher Post, No. 4, America Legion, held a meeting Friday evening at the Legion room with William A. Anderson. com- mander, in the chair. Several import- ant matters came before the meeting which was well attended. Preliminary steps towards the annual armistic day celebration were taken. It was apnounced that Webster D. Copp 'has been appointed general chairman of the post’s armistice day committee with power to appoint his own committee. Mr. Copp, who served as chairman of the committee last year, has named the following to assist him this year: Wi liam A. Anderson, John De Brunner, W. R. Denison, Harold T. Robinson, J. JI. C. Broadhurst, Louis Hawkins, Wm. Skelly and Raymond Sherman. TUBBS’ BAND GIVES CONCERT AT UNION SQUARE In spite of the unfavorable weather several hundred people gathered at Union square Friday night where the| first of a series of four public concerts was given by Tubbs' Military band un- der the direction of Aubrey W. Jarvis. The concert numbers were pleasingly rendered by the band and frequent en- cores were given. From the attendance at the concert there is little doubt but| that Norwich people still like to hear the oldest band of the city. Future con- certs should draw large crowds. The second concert by the band will be given on Friday night, Aug. 18th, and | he week following the Friday night coticert will be omitted as the band is to play at the roque grounds on the eve- ning of Wednesday, the 23rd. BILD DOUBLE SHOWER FOR BRIDES-TO-BE | At the meeting of the Sunshine class of the First Baptist church held Friday evening at the home of Miss Helen Woodworth of Spring Garden avenue two of the members, Miss wianche Arm- strong and Miss Ruth Robertson, were pleasantly surprised when they wers given a double miscellaneous shower. Both expressed their pleasure upon opening their gifts. Prior to the double shower the regu- lar business meeting was held. Later in the evening games were played and re- freshments were served. Th class is taught by Mrs. Arthur Howard. and fifteen members attended the gathering. Seouts Go to Camp Twelve Boy Scouts, members of Grot- | part of the estate of A. H.

Morse, sister of Charles W. Morse is soon to renew operations seems to be an assured fact as alter- ations and changes, to make the plant] suitable for lines of work other than have been carried on there, are al- ready under way, a small force of men being at work. Harry F. Morse has spent consid- erable time at the plant of late and it is understood that he was enthusi- astic about the future of the plant as a boat storage yard as well as a ship| building plant. The plant will operate under the name of the Noank Ship- yards Inc, and will build, repair or store small boats, yachts and larger craft. One or two sets of marine railways for the handling of the smaller boats are to be put in while the large rail- ways, already there, are to be repair- ed and put in shape to take out large yachts, steamers, barges etec. The Noank shipyard, which always used for the cohstruction and repair of large boats, is an ideal location for a plant such as is planned, there being a sufficient depth of water on either side of the property for basins for the storage of boats. There is plenty of land upon which to store boats of any size or description. in M SAMUEL JOHNSON GUEST OF RELATIVES HERE Mr. and Mrs. Henry D. Johnson of Lin- coln avenue are entertaining Mr. John- son’s father, Samuel Johnson, of New Haven, who is known to older residents of Norwich as one of the leading busi- ness men of the’city back in the middle '80s, when the grocery firm known as the Johnson Brothers did business in the Rockwell block. now occupied by J. M. Young. at the corner of Main and Market streets. The business in 1860 was run by Mr. Johnson and his two brothers, Chauncey and Gilbert. In later veacs they soid out to the Peckham Brothers, and not desiring to re-enter the grocery businesy entered the coal line, establishing their coal business on Franklin street or the property now occupied by The Bulletin building, in those da¥s an open lot, a In 1885 the business was sold put and the Johnson brothers left Norwich to en- ter the hotel business, which field they have continued to occupy until the ores- ent time. Samuel Johnson for yenr! op- erated the Grove Fall, Grove street, New Haven, also hotels in New Britain, An- sonia, Westerly, Watch Hill and Narra- gansett Pier.
