.' ' IN PRESENT" FORM
Local Organization .-Now Numbers To
tal of 128 Members.
At a meeting held"ih the headquar
ters of -the Xationai League, for Wo
man's -Service,- in the Thayer build
ing, it was decided to. continue the
organization of the Housewives' Army
in its present form, - as a branch -of
the League for .Wcman'i Service, ra
ther, than reorganize as . the House
wives' League. In the absence of the
permanent chairman, Mrs.Harry- Hig
gins. the meeting was-, presided over
by Mrs. Edward -J. Graham.
. - -Miss Louise Howe read the treasur
er's report. The Housewives' Army in
Norwich mumber 128 members and
much work has ' been accomplished
during the summer. ,The work of the
Community Canning club was touched
upon. : '
A' programme of work mapped out
by Mrs. Hayward.. state 'chairman of
the Housewives League, was present
ed and it was voted to ' take it up,
meeting the third Wednesday in each
month for that purpose. The' course
includes talks on practical subjects
and voluntary discussion of the same.
A paper was read by Mrs. Channing
M. Huntington on the suBject of pur
chasers carrying home -all. possible
bundjjs. The annual amrfcp.it of
money spent on delivery is appalling
and at the present time the money
so spent might be diverted to much
more necessary service. The call on
cur young, men. into thearniy is de
pleting the ranks- of workers and it
it becoming rapidly more difficult to
accommodate customers in this re
spect of deliver- If . each woman
would voluntarily - offer to release the
store keepers, from -this burden and
would use her influence to that end
it would be - a great- economic? gain.
Mrs. Albert - Chase- spoke on the
Liberty "Loan. She alluded to the ty
ing up of commerce and shipping re
sulting frbm "this: war 'and " the con
signment effect on ' the farmer and
the producer. The "money needed to
earry on the war is; to. be raised now
by about one-third direct taxation, and
two-thirds by the Liberty loan.' Those
who are unable to shoulder a sseond
bond should seek the advice, of 1 their
bank as to selling their first hond to
re-invest in the' second. . The .first one
heing n on -taxable, , it is readily sold,
as ..to the person of -large means it
peciires him . exemption from -taxes on
that part of his property. t
The woman's committee selling these
bonds is absolutely non-sectarian and
neither suffrage nor anti-suffrage, but
is merely a- body -of women trying to
do their share., for fthe government.
Mrs. Chase announced that at the
mass meeting to .be held next Tues
day evening in the town hall, Prof.
Bacon of Tale will be the principle
speakeor and Tubbs'- band will fur
nish music for the evening.
Miss Howe then spoke of the Hoo-
er pledge. ; From - Connecticut only
UjQO pledge cards were received in
Washington. This is partly explained
by the faulty style of printing, the
first cards with no city or stite there
on and by the absence -of pushing, in
s-ome'of .the districts. -But after all
Germany's achievements unless one
wishes to indulge in, satire.

her grandmother, who felt that ahe
could not get along without her. Mrs.
Marshall stated that on -Jan. 1, 1893,
her. grandmother told her that if sh
stayed with her and took -care of her
ahe .would pay her. and pay ner wen.
and she decided to stay. ' '
In .1908 the plaintiff was married to
George - Marshall and her grandmother
never disapproved , of ner marriage.
After a wedding trip- of three or fou
weeks, she- returned to her grand
mother's house, her husband, who was
employed by Armour & Co.. remaining
in Worcester. She stayed in her
grandmother's house- about a year and
a. half, continuing to do the work and
take personal care of her.
At the expiration of that time Mrs,
Marshall went to live on a farm about
two miles from ' her grandmother'
'arnuwhich the latter had bought for
her but she still continued, to take
care of her grandmother, going to her
house every day and returning late a
night. .This continued until her grand
mother's death on Jan. 2S, 1916. .

missioner B. M. Bruce has called for
a meeting of all the troops tonight
(Thursday) -at 7.45 in the Chamber of
Commerce rooms. The object of this
meeting is to get every troop' in town
organized for the part they are to
take in the advertising of the loan.
Boy Scouts all over the country are
expected to assist in the distribution
of six million posters. Ralph H. Flske
of Providence will speak briefly to
the boys on the importance of thor
oughness in this part of their work
to which they have been . recommend
ed by the government at Washington.
A brief time will also be spent . in
learning some special songs to be used
at the coming rallies.
Tbe national official campaign by
the Scouts will take place from Oct.
20 to 25th inclusive . In Norwich,
this campaign will be ushered in by
a big public meeting on Friday, the
19th. Plans are now being consid
ered which will make the event the
most interesting of its kind ever held
in , this city. One important part of
the programme will . be the awarding
of the war service - emblems earneu
jr - the boys in the first Liberty loan
vampaign. The presentation will be
made by a representative of the gov
ernment. -
The total amount subscribed to the
Liberty Loan in Norwich to date is a
little over $1?3,000. Flske, the
Providence man who has ccme here
to assist in the local campaign, ad

of the pastors in the city requesting
that thev make appeals in their
t-hurches on cne of the remaining two
Sundays for the need of. purchasing
it is not a record to be proud of and
Washington has apportioned to the
state of Connecticut 200.000 pledges
to be signed. This has been cut down
from a much higher figure given at
first. Those who have already signed
in -Norwich will not be asked to do
so again as a ; record has been kept
of their names. The campaign for
new names, will begin the thjrd week
ot October. Let U3 hope Connecticut
may then make a better showing o:i
this matter. A nation-wide move
ment as it is. put forward by the na
tional government and under the di
rection of the man appointed by
President Wilson as the one to carry
us successfully ; through the coming
year, who -can refuse to support it?
JSven if we are doing our best and in
tending to always do so, can't we give
our government the support and en
couragement of knowing that every
woman stands, behind -it! In soma

After some discussion of these mat
ters the meeting adjourned.

be made at both services.
The Liberty Loan committee have
made arrangements -to erect a 20-foot
thermometer on the . pole loeated a
the Toung block corner on Franklin
square this week 'Friday. From then
on the public of Norwich will be able
to watch the progress of the mercury
snowing ine daily amount ot bud
scriptlons to the Liberty Lpan cam
paign in Norwich as well as the num
ber of subscriptions received each
day. The Norwich., New London Sign
company have given their services in
the erection, painting and daily tab
ulating of the sign, the Chappell com
pany have donated the lumber and
the Peek, Mc Williams company the
making of the large thermometer.
This speaks well for the patriotism of
the Norwich conoems. Everyone in
Norwich is greatly interested in the
local ' campaign, to raise the allotment
of ?1.2o0,000. A strenuous effort will
be made to bust the thermometer.
pushing the mercury completely over.

Another very kind offer to helD
along the campaign comee again from

pany which have taken the balance
of the Liberty- loan posters and will
place these on their bill boards

EIGHTH BOX OF
KNITTED SETS PACKED.
Woman's Service League Sends An
other Shipment 'to Navy League
Headquarters.
At the rooms of the National League
for Woman's Service the eighth box
of knitted sets was packed . and sent
to tbe headquarters of the Navy league
Wednesday.
Mrs. John D. Hall, chairman, stated
that since the first week in June there
have been 899 finished pieces returned
to the rooms,': In addition to the eight
Boxes sent to the JNavy league, our
own boys have been supplied since that
became possible, and very apprecia
tive have they been, as is evidenced
from the many letters received ex
pressing their gratitude.
The women of Norwich have re
sponded nobly to this call for service
and every day sees new ones enlisted
in the ranks of the knitters. Too
much credit cannot be given them for
this eager response and it cannot . be
estimated how far-reaching is the
comfort given by them. As cold
weather approaches, however, the
need grows greater for every sweater
and scarf,. every helmet and every pair
or wristlets and socks.
