TORRANCE, 24 Thames St, Xarwich, -Oonn, ] e i st it NEW LONDON COUNTY POMONA GRANGE HOLDS ANNUAL OUTING ing out of the war, and this dlsregard for law must_be wiped out. People in rural sections of our state, are the balance wheel of the state in poltics as in state government. In our state one out of every 20 or less cannot read or write, and_a majority of these people live in the cities. Of these people who have the vote many of "them are easlly ied by politicians .and vote as intsructed, not as they think right. Ths rural peopls are different, they are slow to accept a change.and believe more strongly inupholding~our laws. ‘We have heard criticisms of the meth- od In which prohibition . has been ‘en- forced, but let us look over the situation. Today there are less drunks and less saloons than in former years, and a ma- jority of those who_do break our laws are either not citizens of our country, or people who care nothing for the eduntry or jts laws. The record of prohit enforcement can stand the test of in About 150 members of the New London County Poména Garnge held their an- nual fleld day Thursday at Happyland, Poquetanuck Drawbridge. The members, who came from Granges in all sections of the county, arrivel at the park shortly before moon. A clam chowder with basket lunches was . cn- Joyed at noon. In the afternoon there were brief talks by members of the various granges, the two principal speakers being Allen B. Cook, state master, and Arthur E. Tar- bell of Hartford. Mr. Cook in part spoke as follows: 1 desire to emphasize that the grange Is in no way connected with any labor union, although much has been intimat- ed of late by the unions that they are one with the granges. The two could never be together. The grange never did and never will sanction any act, such as those that pre- | vent the public from obtaining the ne- | vestigation, “and ~with succeeding gen- cessities of life. erations will become stronger until a The grange stands first of all for 1aw | time will' come when prohibition. en- enforcement, and this means that grang- | forcement will be easily taken care =f by es everywhere are for prohibition en-|a few officers.

Everywhere there is a growing desire to make the laws more stringent and give jail sentences where fines now satisfy. When this time comes there will be more regard for the laws of this country, mot oniy as regards prohibition, but every law of the land which have been held sacred by our forefathers. At the conclusion of the addresses. of the afternoon members prepared for .the return trip, having enjoved one of the most successful fleld days of tae nstory of the New London County Pomona. The arrangements for the outing were ably taken care of by the lecturer, Mrs. Maud E. Bliss of Lebanén, assisted by others of the grange. We must always bear in mind that the grange stands for everything that is for the good of the people in general. I actually believe that the vote being polled on prohibition by a national mag- | azine is misleading, and does mot repre- | sent the true sentiment of the people of our nation. In closing, the ~speaker urged all grangers to stand hy the laws of the country and make it possible for easi law enforcement. The second speaker of the day, Mr. Tarbell, spoke principally on prohibition, pecially in regard to law enforcement. It is true he said that much of the dis- regard for law is due tg conditions aris- CAMP MASSAPEAK MINSTRELS DRAW BIG AUDIENCE “There was a hot time tonight in the old home town,” sounds something like an old time song, but it refers to the | minstrel show given Wednesday nlght {at the Community House vy the boys of { Camp Massapeak, Gardner Lake A well filled house applaud=d frequent- the well rendered song hits by the welve soioists with the show and showed their appreciation of the hits and wise cracks of the six busy end men, whose | duty it was to make everyone forget the | heat.
