The best years that Groton ever had in
"A business way were those in which the
business men advertised most literally.
Bus iness conditions may have accounted
for the advertising. On the other hand,
advertising may have accounted for some
of the business.
We do not hunger and thirst after adj
vertising patronage, ii IL is TO be doled
out as you would throw a bone To a hun.
CRY dog. IL you think advertising is no
benefit to you personally, or to the gen
eral business of the town, pass it up.
The time for a business man in trade
to stop using printers ink is when his
business ambition has reached its limit:
or when he has secured all the business
he can handle; or when he has SO fixed
prices with his competitors that compe-
tition is out oil date.
After a man has for years drilled him
self to pinch u nickle until he rubs it
smooth, there is doutless more or less
uncertain JOY TO be obtained from his
way of looking at things. He may think
it economy not to spend accent in adver-
Using from one years end 10 the next,

Thus far we have seen no report oil a
death from small pox, though there have
been thousands OF cases OF IL, or what
was called sit" in the northwest. We
venture to guess that the sum total Of
personal discomfort caused by vaccination
has been greater than That caused by il
and that the time lost by quarantine has
bee, more than the total time lost by
small pix. However WI cannot tell how
much time and discomfort has been
saved by the avoidance Of small pox by
quarantine. 1t is better to be safe than
sorry, though a few OF our ~vaccinated
friends have been both.

WATERVILLE DAILY TALK

Tonight at Brides pool rooms an interesting game in the pool tourna- Inent will be played between teams representing the Berbecker & Rowland Co and the WaterYille Cutlery Co.

 The residents of Waterville are complaining much of the electric lights in that place. For the past few nights only about half, if that many, of the electric lights are lighted. Sunday night only one of the six lights on Main street was lighted and the same was true the night before. The condition that prevails on Main street is the same on the other streets in that village. Such a condition of af- fairs is very annoying to the residents and they are making much complaint. It is rather peculiar inasmuch as each lamp is looked after every other day by an employe of the electric light company. If one light is in condi- fion to burn. it is funny why the oth- CTS on the same street are not. It would be a different case if only one light on one street wasn't lighted, but when there are several lights on sev- eral streets not burning, well, it is strange.

Imposing Ceremonies Held at Charles

 CHARLESTON, $. C., Dec. 3.-With imposing ceremonies, embracing pa- rside of federal forces, state militia and Confederate veterans, beautiful women and cheering cOllegians, pro gramme of exercises graced by distin- gniShed speakers and with words or greeting from the president or the United States, the South Carolina h. terState and West Indian exposition was opened officially yesterday after noon. The day was set aside as hoii- day, and all places of business were closed.
 In the auditorium at the exposition grounds, where the exercises were held, an audience of 1000 people cheered the name of the president of the United States, gave hearty applause to Hon. Chauneey NJ. Depew, the orator of the day, listened attentiveiy to the after noon's exercises and then joined the crowds inspecting the grounds and maryeled at the audacity of Charles ton in undertaking an exposition of SNCA
 About 300 people, including the gov ernor Of South Carolina and staff, the officers of the exposition, the board or lady managers and the city council of Charleston, were on the stage of the beautifully decorated auditorium when the exercises began.
 Senator Depew on entering was giv- en an ovation by the audience, the cheering continuing for several min utes. After welcoming addresses by F. ". Wagener. president of the expo sition company, and Governor M. E. McSweeney Senator Depew was intro duced by J. Adger Smyth, mayor of Charleston.
 The exposition on signal from the White House, where President Roose- welt touched q key connecting with the exposition, was declared open.
 The fair, while not as large as other expositions that nave been given, is an exhibition of much merit and is al ready an artistic success.
 The exposition is not in the state of preparedness, however, which its pro- jectors had hoped for, chiefly owing to the scarcity of cars to transport exhib- its here Between two and three hun- dred carloads of exhibits are on the tracks at the park, but they are rapid ly being unloaded and put in place by an army of men working twenty-four hours q day.

PRODUCTION FOR NAUGArUcK

The Young Mems Catholic Institute
 Preparing Great Dramatic Event.
 One of the most difficult dramas that has ever been produced by anna teurs in the state of Connecticut will be undertaken by the members of the '. M. 0. l. of Naugatuck on December 13. when the play. ''A Celebrated Case" will be introduced to the lovers of good drama in Naugatuck and vicin- Hy. Tickets are selling rapidly and there is no doubt but that Columbus nah in that place will be filled on the night Of the production. The society has been to a very great expense to produce the above play and the mem bers of the cast have labored very di- ligently to make the effort q success ful one. The play will be costumed ID to date and no performance that has been seen in the state can surpass it for the beautiful stage costumes and dresses that will be worn It is one of the most interesting dramas that q person could wish tO see and the peo- pie who attend will be surprised at the excellent manner in which it will be produced. The admission to the entertainment is only 35 and JO cents, so that 1t will come within the reach Gr all Tn all probability there will be theater party from Waterbury on the night Of the production. for it has been presented here on two occasions by the members of the St Joseph soci- ety. In case the theater party is or ganized an effort will be made to have seats secured for them in one part of the house where they can view the play to the best advantage. It will be the greatest dramatic event that has ever been attempted in Naugatuck.
