master and commIssary. The team quartermaster is directed to arrange for these details
 From Middletown it is reported that Governor Weeks is anxious to go to Massachusetts at the time of the war manoeuvres there and if it is possible for him to do so he will be with the soldier boys for a part of the time they are engaged in playing war on the Massachusetts coast. It is so un- certain when. the legislature will ad- journ that he is unable to make any definite plans. If the legislature re- mains in session this week he will probably be unable to go at all. If there is an adjournment, as seems probable, he vii perhaps leave with the militia on August IA and remain with them for the greater part of their stay. He is very much interested Tn the whole movement.

Secretary of War Dickinson. himself a good shot with both the military rifle and the shotgun, will be at Camp Per- ry for several days. Chairman John A. T. Hull of the house committee on military affairs, will probably spend two or three days on the range, while
  committee on military affairs is ex- pected at the range for one day.

 AUTOMOBILE LICENSES.
Owners Worried About Renewals
 None Needed Till January 1.

Norwich automobilists. whose li- censes expire this month. haxe been figuring where they would come out if the new automobile law were signed by the governor. There had been an announcement to the effect that they would be obliged to pay for a new li- cense now and another January 1. This, however, was denied at the sec- retary of states office. Saturday morning, according to a Hartford pa per. where it was explained that mo- torists whose licenses expire this month will be gathers by the new law instead of losers.
 By the new law all the licenses will be re-issued to date from January l. It Is provided, however. that licenses taken out after September 1 will pay only a pro rata fee. This was taken to mean that licenses renewed before September 1 would have to pay the full years rate and those renewed after September 1 only a partial rate. At the licensing bureau it was ex- plained, however, that the clause re- ferring to licenses taken after Septem- ber l would refer only to new cars or new licenses and that no licenses which expire between the enactment of the new law and January 1 need be renewed at all-that the old licens- es would be allowed to run until the time when new licenses would be is sued all around.

DOUBLE POSTAGE
 FOR FOLDER POSTCARDS
Two Gents to Be charsed-Affeets
 Local Senders.

The popularity of the double post card in folder form with Norwich post card devotees is expected to dimin- ish as the result of an order which has been received at the local post office. The order comes from the de- partment at Washington and raises the postage on such cards to two cents.
 There is a provision, though, which mitigates the seeming harshness of the order. If the cards contain no writing the one-cent stamp will suf- flee. If the card contains writing a two-cent stamp must be used.
 Particularly of late the double folder post card has become popular. The form of postal allows of giving a good view of a large Building and the ac- companying grounds. The order af- fects the entire country.
