The annual election of officers was
held and Notwithstanding that the
president. Henry c. Rowe. had request
ed all members to select someone else

ed for seventeen consecutive years, he
was unanimously reelected. He re-
fused, however, to serve, unless he
should be relieved of the responsible
ty and care as chairman of the COM
mittee on legislation. The meeting
then voted UNANIMOUSLY authorizing Mr.
Rowe as president to appoint a chair
man of the committee on legislation
who should relieve him from this part
of his duties. Many points of import
ance and interest to all oyster grow

TESTING MILK BOTTLES.
Meriden's Town SeaIer Sees to 1t That
Full Measure is Given.

H. E. Kapitskie, town sealer of
weights and measures, notified the
milk dealers of the community last
week that he desired to examine their
quart and pint bottles and measures,
and eighteen of them presented him
their stock the other day, says the
Meriden Journal The sealers in some
of the big cities about the country have
started a campaign against the milk
bottlees, claiming that invariably the
amount of milk put up in those bottles
was short of the correct measures. The
fault lies with the manufa cturerS, the
mflkmen assert. Among the bottles the
local sealer measured some were as
much as four tablespoonfuls short and
others a tablespoonful below correct
measure.
Only recently the sealer's outfit was
made more complete by the purchase
of a. modern set of standard liquid
measures by Selectman Gedrge w. Mil
Ter, and the sealer is now equipped to
examine liquid measures to see that
they come up to the standard.
There are forty dealers in Meriden
and Mr.. Kapitslle intends to look over
tehir measures and bottles. Just what
shall be done in the cases where the
bottles have been purchased and found
to be below the oSandard is soon to be
determined by the town officials.

Letters by Telephone.

A suggestion that seems to have
considerable merit comes from a pos
tai official in Kansas City It is based
upon the plan in general use by the
telegraph companies of teIephoning
messages for the, purpose of expedit-
ing their delivery, where the distance
is long enough to make time a factor.
The Kansas City suggestion is that a
similar plan might be carried out by
the government in the postal service.

telephone letter" and when such a
stamped letter reaches the postoffice.
instead of q special delivery. it is to
be opened and it's corr ents read over
the telephone to the addressee.
AS the suggestion says, the length
of such letters would have to be linn
tied. But why wouldn't their use be
of advantage to the public? A DELAY
of several hours attends the delivery
of letters in the residence district of
cities. The telephone letter. would
be d sort of intermediary between the
mail and the telegraph service. There
would b plenty OF occasions for its
use.
knowledge of the mail service might
interpose fatal objections, but the pro-
posal seems worth considering=St
