"\ attempt was made to get a_boat from the submarine base, but without success. The firemen did all they could, but were glad to be helped by the rain at 8 o'clock. ‘They stayed at the bridge until about 10 o'clock using buckets, with water from the river, to keep the flames from spreading all ajong the structure which had been well saturated by the rain. P e HOW WESTFIELD SWAIN WROTE TO NORWICH GIRL Just how swains- of Westfield now compose their love-letters, one may not attempt to say, says.the Springfield Re- publican: .Such delicate matters do not, usually, see the light of day, or of pub- licity, at least..rot umtil years after they_ were written. Here, however, is a portion of a love letter written in West- field not quite 250 years ago by Edward Taylor, .a young minister, who lgter married the object of his. adoration, Miss Elizabeth Fitch, daughter of Rev. Mr. Fitch, one of the founders ot the then infant town of Norwich, Cong, “This for my friend and enly beloved; Mies \Elizabeth Fitch, at her father's house in Norwich. “Westfield, 8 day of “My Dove, “1 send you mot my heart, for that 1 trust is sent to heaven long since, and unless it, hath wofully deceived me, it hath not taken up its lodgings in any one’s -bosom on -this side of the Roval City of the Great King, but yet the most of it that is-allowed to be layed out upon any creature doth safely and singly fall to your shore. “So much my, post pigeon present you with here in these lines. Look not, 1 entreat vou, upon it as-ome of love's hyperbole some sparkling metaphor to illustrate my respects unto- thyself by, “for you hav- ing madée my breast the cabinet of your affections,’as I yours mine, I know not how to- offer agfitter comparisont to set out iy ‘love by than to compare it un- to a golden ball &2 pure fire, and then a0 spark like .a -glorious beam from the of the flaming sun.

But know that it is the coarsest thing that is chouchant there, for the purest is too fine to clothe in any. linguish huswilry, or to be expressed in ‘words.” In the old history of Norwich from which this fragmeént is taken one in in- formed that from this point the lover of 1647 ran “into the style of 'a ser- mon and the Jover*is almost ‘lost in the theologian.” . ‘So, being more interested in love letters than in theology, the his- torian does not give -the rest of it. But ithe portion given raises some questions. | Appdrently the young lover’s spelling of French was not so pure as his heart; r ‘“chouchant” one should perhaps read couchant.” . As for. “linguist ‘huswifry"” [the dictionary does not help with regard to the first of the two-words, From the context they appear to mean “bits-of womanis ‘finery” or something similar: But. did the.letter go by carrier pigeon or was .*post, pigeon”. just another lov- er's fancy? Probably it was the latter.. WATERFORD ARMERS DISCUSS COOPERATIVE COW BUYING - At a meeting ‘recently held in Water- ford Professor A. R.

At the present ‘time dairymen are buying cows largeiy ‘of inferior quality.” These cows are bought through a' system of ‘dealers but Professor Mérrill pointed out that a dealer must- necessarily safeguard 'his Interests ‘and 45 he is naturally buying 2nd selling cows « to make .a profit, whereas if. a group. of farmers ‘would get: together, pool their orders and. hire some good reliable men. in their locality {o purchase some hish grade cows there 5 become crossed, The fire was extin- guishod before any damage 'had ‘been done, Only &'wo Tickets For Yale Ablwmai.
