Whlimantio, Nov. 2.—"In regard to my talk this evening, 1 ask all those present to think that is the resuit fdr whick I try to make you think upon this important subject,” said Louis Freetand Post, former assistant secretary of the U, S. depart- ment of labar, at the beginning of his ad- dress on The Problem of the Public Purse Community Foruam held in the town hali tonight. The grimary problem of course is how to fill the public pursy if one is needed, he said. The first question is the public purse. Of necessity tirat guestion is ome which is answered by the question, Do we -need 2 goverpment? L . We do need a government.

JEWETT CITY | A few of those wio emjoyed wams afield Sunday were able to find here and there scattered wh bushes, and returning borught bome large botiguets of the handsome red berries. Black atder, or winterbury, the Hex verticillata of the botanies, used to be ome of the com- monest low shrubs abooading in this Jocality. Especially all aronnd Tadpole pond at this season of the year its scarlet berries could be seen amywhenre. These red winterberries are as mear as these latitudes gets to the real hoily which a'Jittle later wit be semt here from the south by Jewett Clty people wio are there for the winter. It bejongs to the hoily family, znd proves a close second, lusing one advan- tage possessed by the somthern species, in that when its fruit ripens its leaves fall, cute our wishes. That is what a govara. need a publfic purse. How are we filling that public purse, and how showld it be Blled B Tafts have been deftned as emforced proportionate contributions of = wealth levied for the benefit of the contributors, bot they are levied regardless of the direct bemefit of the.government to any particalar ipdividmal. For example, one person may DPey a small tax amd Teceive a direct bemefit of $100 through taxes and ancther person may Pay a very high tax and receive only a $125 benefit.

All summer the jlex doesw’t came in for much attention as its blossoms are odoriess and inconspicuous. There is an American holly, ilex opaca, which local ‘flower lovers hawe found in these sections, but very sparingis. The solution for the local passing of this queen of nature’'s small fall berry exhib- its was seen in every passing automobile over the state rocad Sunday. No sooner is a winterberry handsome display" sighted than on goes the emerg- ency, and out ‘piles the party even to the last man. When ¢hey go the winterberry remains just.a common black bush ameng the thowsands of other varieties that skirt the western rim of the pomd. The funeral services for Johm C.
