about 10 years. The chief output of
the plant is a paint Which is used for

y ON SUNDAY EVENINGS
Local Drug Stores Inaugurated . New
nuie i-ast iNignt.
During the winter all the local re
tail drug stores will close at 9 o'clock
Sunday evenings instead of 10.30. The
new rule went into effect Sunday.
They will also be closed from 10 to 12
in the forenoon on Sundays. The
hours of the drug clerks are excep
tionally long and the new rule will
give them another hour to themselves.
During the winter months there Is
not enough trade after 9 o'clock to
warrant remaining open. However, it
is probable that during the months
of July and August when the - Sunday
evening trade is heavy the stores will
go back to the old hours.

road. This machine was owned and
driven by Harrison Barber of Willi
mantic. Concerning the accident Mr. Bliven
said he had his- choice of turning to
the right, running the risk of collid
ing with two telephone, poles or going
down an embankment or of turning to
the left in an effort to avoid a colH-
elon with the Willimantlc machine.
He chose the latter course, swung
around iar.d to the left and tried to
shoot by. The Willimantic driver is
said to have been waving to men on
the freight with whom he is acquaint
ed, saw the Bliven machine as Mr.
Bliven was about to turn to the left,
and immediately swung to the right
in order to let the Bliven machine go
by. The Willimantic machine struck
the forward part of the rear wheel of
Mr. Bliven's machine and Miss Bliven
and Mrs. Himes were thrown out. Mr.
Bliven's touring car was extensively
damaged.
CONTRIBUTORS TO THE
PATRIOTIC CELEBRATION
Total ef $91.25 Has. Ben Raised to
Data by Local Committee.
To date the local town committee
of the Connecticut State Council of
Defense have raised through volun
tary subscription $91.25 towards the
expense of the celebration held last
Tuesday evening in honor of the Nor
wich men drafted for the National
Army. This amount is somewhat
3bort of the actual cost of the cele
bration. The committee does not wish
to make a canvass to raise the money
as they feel that the public- spirited
and patriotic citizens of Norwich
have pride enough in the city to help
along the cause.. Henry L. Frisbie,
treasurer of the committee, announces
the following list of contributors to
date:
H. R. Branche, G. W. Carroll. C. P.
Eushnell, C. D. Greenman J. L. Mit
chell. A. H. Brewer, H. L. Frisbie, C.
H. Frisbie, L, O. Smith, B. P. Bishop,
H. F. Dawley. F. L. Osgood. Miss Jane
Bill. P. T. Welles, C. E. Lane. Mrs. L.
Brown, C. H. Osgood, Grosvenor Ely,
W. T. Olcott, F. A. Robinson, F. T.
Sayles and Hon. J. H. Barnes.
For the work which the committee
has mapped out for the coming year
approximately $500 will be needed,
this of course including the expense
of the recent celebration. The biggest
Item of expense will be the erection
of the roll of honor which will b lo
cated in the enclosed space tin fron
of the ponce headquarters at the
southeasterly end of the court house
building. The roll of honor will face
down Broadway, and It is planned to
have It illuminated. A roll of honor of
most attractive design has been se
lected by the committee and It will
entail a cost of approximately $800.
It will contain the name, of verv
Norwich man in the service, all
branches included, and the letters will
be an inch and a half or two Inchon
in height.- Along with his name will
appear the branch of the service in
which he is enlisted and there will be
provision made for later additions
fisch as honorably discharged, etc It
is estimated that the erection of bulle
tin boards In various parts of the
town will mean an expenditure of a
hundred dollars. These are to contain
bulletins on matters of interest to
every patriotic man, woman and child
in the state.
