NORWICH IS TO HAVE BIG INDUSTRIAL EXPOSITION December 5th to 9th inclusive have ‘| been chosen for the days of the indis- trial and mercantile exhibit of Norw: made goods. These dates were selec*: ed by the newly elected-board of dire- tors of the chamber of commerce, fol- lowing their meeting Thursday noon. at the Wauregan House. At the meeting J. P. O'Connor and P. B, Rockwood of Springfleld, Mass., spoke on the subject of an industrial and mercantile exhibit of' Norwich made goods. - The board was told how an ex- hibit of this kind could be handled by the. organization represented by these two men, and at the close of their re marks the members approved the holding of the exhibit at the state armory. As the last éxhibit of this kind was held at.the state armory in 1908 unfer the auspices of the old board of trade, ths ‘exhibit in December will rove a surprffe to Norwich people, when the hundreds of articles manufactured here are placed in exhibition, at the state armory from December 5 to 9.

Colchester-Bozrah highway was also taken up with State Highway Commissioner Charles J. ‘Ben- nett, and Mr. Bennett stated that cv- erything possible is being done to.spesd p the completion of this road. Delays have been caused by labor conditions but the commissioner 'is ‘visiting the work weekly to ascertain that the work is speeded up by the gang employed on the highway. . The .treasurer, George A.

This will be asked for and statistics will be presented to show why it should be granted at a supper to which Major V. L. Peterson of Prov- idence will be invited as he is the gov- ernment officer who is to make the in- vestigation of the need of improvement of the Thames river. The meeting had an_ attendance of about 25 when it was called to order by President H. M. Lerou who stated that it was of great importance to 'every business interest in Norwich that the river channel should be maintained at such depth as to keep Norwich a port in- stead of an inland city, for freight rates for inland points are from 50 to 75 per cent. higher than for ports. Secretary John J. O'Rourke opened the discussion at the suggestion of President Lerou by stating that he was convinced the tonnage on the river would be great- ly increased if Norwich could get a re- sponsible boat line that would give real service to shippers. Increased tonnage would be a strong argument for the government to spend money to;keep Nor- wich a port. e Lucius Briggs spoke strongly of the value to every industry and every busi- ness house in Norwich of supporting this effort for a deep channel in’ the river. At the present time the channel depth is 14 feet from Allyn's Point to this city, but bas not Leen kept, at that depth. This is not merely a lumber or’coal ship- ment problem but is a general merchan- dise problem that affects every indus- try and merchant. ‘ William H. Cruckshank advocated that every man should put his shoulder to the wheel to push this thing through and D. E. Ackroyd advised that statistics of total tonnage be secured to show Ma- jor Peterson. It was suggested that this be done by a questionnaife to be sent out by the secretary and this suggestion was adopted. The question was raised whether de- pendable freight service by boat could not be secured for Norwich by inducing the New England Steamship Co. to run a boat here, or even to make Norwich the terminus for its freight line, where through freight could be taken on as it is now at New London. C. J. Isbister reminded the meeting that a 20 foot channel in the river would undermine some of the docks, as had been brought out when this ques- tion was considered several years ago, and Mr. Briggs gave it as his opinion that a 16 foot channel was all that was needed. H. J. Dawley stated that his firm had expgnded considerable money to deepen the water at its dock and needs a 16 foot channel to get to the dock. On motion of Mr. Cruckshank the vote was passed for a supper at 6.15 at some date in the future where Major Peterson would be present and the whole subject would be presented to him. Some of the old steamer captains are to be invited to the supper to speak and in- vitations will be sent to every manufac- turer and merchanc. This concluded the business and the meeting adjourned at 5.30. DEMOCRATIC WOMAN SPEAKER CRITICISES REPUBLICAN ACTS 1f you believe that the republican par- ty is the best, then vote for it, but in these serious times consider that the re- publican party every minute it remains in control of our government is jeopard- izing this country within and without, and get out and work for the democratic party, which stands for the things that mean the safety of America, was the keynote of the political speech made by Mrs. Robert Gadd of Hartford Thurs- day night speaking to about a hundred ladies at the town hall, under the aus- pices of the Norwich-Wide Democratic Women's club. Sl Public opinion is one -of -the biggast things in politics today, said Mrs.' Gadd, and both parties are out striving to sway it towards their particular party. Many of our people have not yet learned to vote intelligently ‘and to give these people opportunity ‘to learn about the issues of the campaign the parties pub- lically announce ‘their platforms and spread the truths among the voters. “From 1912 to 1920 this country saw its most profitable years under the dem- ocratic control by the greatest man who has held the president’s office, Woodrow Wilson. Now under republican control we find the privileged class enjoying prosperity, while the people enjoy coal at $16 2 ton and mone to be had, tarifts that put a tax on everything you use, from the time you arise in the morning until you go to bed at night. “The republicans went into office with an overwhelming vote, and have had a case of auto-intoxication, never thinking for 2 moment that the country expectéd them to carry out their campaign pledg- es. It has been 2 wiggle wobble govern- ment conducted by men who worked for no definite ideal, and under their man- agement our national wealth has decreas- ed, industrial depression is seen every- where, a bonus bill with no ‘money to pay it was sent to the president and ve- toed for a good reason, lack of funds to pay. Once a statesman said, “Mil- lions for defense, but not one ‘cent for tribute.” The republican slogan for the ex-service men is “Millions for , tribute to the privileged class and not one cent for tribute to those men who held their lives cheap when our nation was in danger.” “The repuklican congress and govern- ment is like a ship. President Harding stands with wobbly legs, asking others to help him guide the ship..| His crew, congress, is looking about to. see how the country. likes thé government, and forgets to Jook for the chart, and we Bsee the ship dMifting with nothing to guide it, no definite port in sight. ‘Republicans can always get money for propaganda and, they are spreading it about the country hoping it will be swallowed by the voters. They. talk about the tariff."but we know it means ruin for this country if the tariff is continued and Europe which has no money, can- ot éxport to this country and pay for her imports in’ this way. Our shipping W.lis affected and the republicans talk of the ship subsidy biil'to sell millions of dollars worth of ships for almost noth- ing and - then -loan money, thtee quar- ters of a billion to ‘aid the shipping in- dustry. .. 5 “The - republicans to- block. . President Wilson held Senator Newbury in his seat, a disgrace to' the country, as his vote was needed on committees‘to block democratic acts for .the_good of the country. = . ““The republicans téll of the great dis- armament conferencef but ° know . that President Wilson gained . the signatures of all of the nations but America in the League of Nations, while President Hard- ing has gained the signatures of only a few countries. All their propaganda is along these misleading lines, and wh they quote merchants and manufactur- ers as saying that these are prosperous times, we know the times-are not pros- perous for the people and if this: is re- publican prosperity then’ give me demo- cratic hard times The speaker closed by speaking about the various democratic candidates stat- ing that they should all be elected to of- fice for each and every one was pledged and would vote for the things of henefit to the country, one great thing being the tariff questions which the democrats. charge of a_co} the subject and levy a fair tariff that will not be of peril to this country |and favor a special few, like Mr. Mellon, the’ aluminum king, who gave 326,000 to the republican cause, for the protec- Mrs. Elizabeth F. speaker and called for a rising vote of thanks. Seated -on the. platform . with the speaker and president of the wo- men’s ‘club was Miss- May " Kilday, ‘rep- resenting the National Alliance of Dem- ocratic 'Women. An invitation was ex- tended to all to come to the Wauregan house, Room 5, next Tuesday e: to hear the election returns as they coms | tay in’ by special wire.. ENGAGEMENT I8 ANNOUNCED 4 AT HALDOWEEN PARTY | Your' little-actress-wite-to-be. GAVE CORDIAL RECEPTION TO GUBEENATORIAL CANDIDATE Lieutenant-Governor Charles . Teri- pleton of Wdterbury, who is the repub- lican candidate for governor, reached Norwich in his campaign tour of the state Thursday afternoon, accompan‘ed by Mrs. Templeton, and a reception was given for them at the Wauregan house parlors from 2 to 3 o'clock. During the reception hours there was a steady stream of citizens who, came to shake hands with Mr. and” Mrs. Templeton and give him cordial greet- ings and best wishes for success at the polis next Tuesday. Recefving with Mr. and Mrs. Temple- ton were A. J. Bailey and Mrs. Frank A. Mitchell of the republican state cen- tral committee, who were assisted by Judge Arthur F. Libby, chairman of the town committee, Henry H, Pettis, Ste- phen H. Reeves, Casper K. Bailey, Wil- liam 8. Murray, George'Adams, E. La Rue Bliven, Mrs. Albert H. Chase, Mrs Willlah A. Norton, Mrs. Willis Aus! Mrs. Albert J.. Bailey and Miss Mary Richards. Representative C. V. Roy Bobbins, candidate senator, George H. ‘Bradford of Mortville and many others of ‘the leading republicans of the city attended the reception a gave cordial greetings to the candi- date, In a brief comment upon the cam- paign, Mr. Templeton said that he was feeling . very confident of the outcome and that he was having a busy but de- lightful time.in his tour that was bring- ing him into personal touch with the finest people in each community that he has visited and bringing him assur- ances of support of the republican can- didates. He has spoken as many as fifteen times in one day, giving brief talks on the merits of the republicaa platform and administration of staie and ‘national affairs. Mr. Templeton was accompaiied here by his campaign manager, Albert N. Colgrove of Waterbury, and Mrs, Col- grove. They had been given a recep- tion at New London in the morning. From here the party went on to Hart- ford - where .Mr. Templeton was to speak at a meeting in the evening. Pendleton, for Lee DEOPS $100,000 SUIT +AGAINST CLIFFORD HENDRIX Clifford R. Hendrix, a wealthy stock broker of Larchmont, New York, wao when & boy used to visit relatives hers at Bast Great Plain, had figured this week in 2 $100,000 breach of promise suit brought by Mrs. Maud L. Ceballos of Brooklyn, N. Y., known on the stage as Mona. Desmond. The suit came ‘to a sudden and unexpected end Wednes: day. ‘When Justice McAvoy's part of the supreme court in Manhattan opencid James M, Fisk, attorney for Mrs: Ci- ballos, told the judge that, at the ex- presé wish of his client, he wanted to have the complaint dismissed and the case dropped. Ng reason was given for this action and "no explanation was made. - Justice McAvoy granted the ap- plication, . the jury was dismissed, aad the case, ‘after a trial of two days, came at an abrupt stop. Hendrix joytully telephoned his young wife<at Larchmont the good news, and said he would not claim the $150 trial costs to which he is entitled. Before that the testimony had gone somewhat against the plaintiff. Loye postal cards purporting to nar- rate a “cavemin's courtship” were read in court before Justice McAvoy at the beginning of the testimony today. The postal cards read as follows: “My heart is all gone on atcount of your beatings, but I love you just the same.—Mon: “I Jove you‘in spite of ‘the black esye “Gets-It” Removes. Corns Quick No matter how tough or how stub- born jt may have been, the corn or callus that is touched with a few drops “Gets-Tt” is doomed to a quick, painless end. Never again can it pain you.

Osgood, | Pitcher & Service, Lee Osgood CHILD WELFARE MEASURES H WIN REPUBLICANS SUPPOKT The passage of the act providing for the department of public welfare, pro- viding protection and supervision t§ &% dependent, neglected and uncared fo children of Connecticut; the education-| ai bill which makes possible the educa- tion of children below par mentally and physically; and the bill providing for health instruction and physical educa- tion in public schools, are reasons glven by Miss Marjorle Cheney, state com- missioner of child welfare, for her sup- port of the republican party. That the possibilities of the bureai of child welfare have not yet been fuily realized and because of the fact that the republican party has accomplished so much along this line, it should have the suppost of the women of the state, is the oplnion of Miss Cheney. “The passage of the act pro the department of public welfare, Miss Cheney in an interview given out Thursday, “which brought under st protection and supervision all depend- ent, neglected and uncared for chil- dren of Connectigut, put Connecticut in line with the m modern methods of welfare work. It has had an important influence on.the commitments to the county homes. The fact 'that agents of the board of child Welfare have to ke notified and through investigation has to be made before commitment has ‘n many cases resulted in a disposition of the case more advantageous to the chiid and the tax payer.” “The possibilities of the bureau df child welfare have not yet been fuliy realized but it, offers an opportunity of immensely helpful service and the ju- venile court act takes Comnecticut out of the medieval position of havipg a merely permissive statute and hes made it mandatory for nine-tenths of the towns of the state to care for juve- nile offenders in a humane and intelli- gent Manner. The detestable custom of keeping children in lock-ups. is now ab- solutely forbidden and the machine for developing the best type of probi- tion service has been set up, except that $5 should be the minimum fee for pro- bation ‘officers. “Another bill of great importance to children was the so-called exceptional educational bill which makes it possi- ble to organize special classes for ch:l dren below par mentally and pHysically and which has given authority to the state board - of education to develop work for these children provided they can get the money. ' “The republican administration ds- serves credit for the bill providing for health instruction and physical educa- tion in public schools. This makes it necessary for the child to spend at lecst two hours and a half in each school week on its physical education and stu- dents at the state normal schools must be instructed how to give these cours: It is very important,, "Inasmuch as the republican party did this, it deserves-the-vote of all wo- men voters.
