RURAL PASTORS ARE
PAID Low SALARIES
w. H. L. Irion, aSenior. Speaks
on Decline of the Coun-
try Church.
is A PREACHERS SON
Clergymen and Congregation
Are Too Far Apart in
Social Life.

The salaries of rural pastors range
from S. to $50 month while their
living expenses amount to more than
$500 year. This is the direct cause
for the decline of the rural church,
according to William T. Irion, senior
in the School of Education, who spoke
to the short course students, Sunday
club at the Y NJ. c. A. building Sun
day.
In his address on THE Relations
Between the Country Pastor and his
Church, as Seen by Country Pastors
SON." Mr.. Irion further declared that
not only is the clergyman's salary too
small, but that it is uncertain and
difficult to collect. AS a result the
good clergyman either leaves such
community or becomes so engrossed in
earning a living that he has to neglect
his church duties.
and his congregation are too far apart
socially. That is, the members of
congregation begrudge their pastor
many of the pleasures which they
themselves enjoy daily. Too many
still believe that the pastors life
should be spent settling minor dis
putes and his money given to charity.
The purpose of this Sunday club is to
study country church problems and
to solve them Systematically as its
members are taught to solve agricul-
tural problems Systematically.

ARTISAN WELL GIVES
 3e GALLONS A MINUTE.
Will Be Sunk to the 500 Foot Level When It Will Be Stepped, as Will the Second We'll.

On Thursday morning the members of the water board Surerintendent Corkery and Engineer C. E. Shandler went to Meadow brook, where every thing was in readiness for the test of the first we'll It was made by pump ing the water and filling a three gal lon bucket. and the result showed that there were 36 gallons of water a min ute secured. This is II gallons a min ute more than was secured on the previous test. but does not equal what was expected or desired. The well is down 415- feet.
 The board has decided to sink the well to the 800 foot level and when that is reached to stop work on the second well, connect them up and pump whatever amount they are able to receive from the two. Although no test was made in the second well, it is believed it will show more water than the first well. It is now down 40 feet. 1t is expected that the work will be completed by next Tuesday.
 Mohegan lake has shown a drop of four inches only since the taking of water from there was started, while F'airview reservoir is now down 335 inches, the drop there being no greater than before, though the quantity is less. There is a small stream flowing in from Meadow brook.

STATE CHEMISTS REPORT
 ON MOHEGAN LAKE WATER. Sees No Reason Why 1t Should Not Be Used With Safety for Drinking Pur- poses.

Last Friday Health Officer Dr. N. B. Lewis took Q, sample of the water from Mohegan lake and sent it to the state chemists office for analysis. Thursday he received the result of the examina- tion, which was turned over to the su- perintendent of the water department. The report is very pleasing to the wa ter board and will no doubt be to the residents of the city.
 The report says: This water con- ter and is quite soft. The figures for organac constituents are not high and the chlorine figure is about normal.
 t'TTlle number of bacteria are moder- ate, and no objectionable forms were found. This water appears to be free from objectionable drainage contamin- ation at Ithe present time, and from the description of conditions on the drain age area given by Mir. c. E. Chandler can see no reason why this water should not be used with safety as a drinking supply. I would suggest, how ever, that the pond be carefully pa trolled and that fishing and boating should not be allowed, as any contam ination of such a small supply would be quickly carried to the city and might have a serious effect
 J. A. Newlands was the chemist who made the analysis.
 Supt. Corl1ery stated that he had previously carried out the recommend ations regarding a patrol at the pond and such has been maintained since the taking of water was started from the pond

MORE THAN EVER Increased Capacity for Mental Labor Since Leaving Of Coffee.

Many former coffee drinkers who have mental work to perform. day after day, have found better capac- ity and greater endurance by using Postum instead of ordinary coffee. An Illinois woman writes:
 "I had drank coffee for about % years, and finally had what the doctor called coffee heart l was nervous and extremely Respondent; had little mental or physical strength left. had kidney trouble and constipation.
 'The first noticeable benefit dsrived from the change from coffee to Post um was the natural action of the kid neys and bowels. In two weeks my heart action was greatly improved and my nerves steady.
 Then I became less despondent, and the desire to be active again, showed proof of renewed physical and mental strength.
 T am steadily gaining in physical strength and brain power l formerly did mental work and had to give fl up on account CT coffee but since using Postum I am doing hard mental labor with less fatigue than ever before.'

SIXTY YEARS OF MARRIED LIFE
Anniversary Observed by Mir. and Mrs. Michael Me- Qurk Their Home in Division Street-Fami1y Gathering with Many Callers During the Evening.

The anniversary of 50 years of hap py welded life was delightfully."- noted by MT. and Mrs. Michael McQuirk on Thanksgiving in their pleasant home, No. 46 Division street, surrounded by those they love. A family dinner was served at o'clock. at which children and grandchildren gathered and in the afternoon and evening many relatives and friends called on the happy cou- pie and congratulated them upon be- ing able to celebrate such an unusual event in life and many tokens of kind regard were proffered.
 One feature of the affair was that both MT. and Mrs. McQuirl1 are in good health and possess all their fac ulties and entered into the spirit of the festivities with almost the en- thusiasm of youth They were able to do their full share of the entertain ing. The house was decked with flow CTS and plants from the greenhouse of William H. McQuirk the eldest son of the couple.
 MT. and Mrs. Mcouirk were mar ried in this city on November 24 1S50 The maiden name of the bride was Anastasia Princely and she is a na- tive of New Jersey. The officiating clergyman was Rev. Peter BlenI1in- sop. In those early days Norwich was part of the Catholic parish of Wor- cester and the people of that faith in eastern Connecticut were ministered to by the Jesuit Fathers of Holy Cross college in Worcester.
 The Rose of New England has al ways been the home of the favored couple and they have shed an influ- ence for good in the community.
 MT. McQuirk was a, carpenter and became builder and contractor and for long time was a member of the building firm of McQuirk & Bacon, who were the leaders in their line NIT. McQuirk takes pride in his past work and especially in the fact that he located the elegant Catholic church on Broadway with an ample ground in front, for the architect had plan ned to place the edifice near the side walk and have it entered from a long flight of steps
 He was the contractor on the church until it was roofed in.
 Mir. McQuirk is republican in poli- tics and keeps well read on the top ics of the day. He filled minor town offices and served in the court of com mon council when young man. He took deep interest in the life of the first small Catholic parish of Norwich
Norwich bulletin., 1910-11-25

and aided in improving by work and advice the Catholic church, which was at that time only the rear part of the old St. Mary's church on North Main street. He was instrumental in hav ing the caTnetery located in Greene vile, as it had been planned to buy and use for burials in the vicinity of the fair grounds. Mr. McQuirk can talk in an edfying and instructive manner of the struggles of the early Catholic settlers in this section.
 During the administration of PreSi- dent Grant MT. McQuirk was made supervisor of the erection of govern ment buildings through the influence Of his personal friend, the late Con- gressman Wait. He was located for the most part in the south and had charge of many buildings. He met General Grant, President Arthur and many of the prominent men Of the land and can talk entertainingly of them. MT. McQuirk was so valuable to the government that he was not disturbed under the first administra tion of Cleveland and served almost through his second term. He was with the government r years. For number of years he has lived a re- tired life and has found pleasure in moving about among his old friends.
 Mrs. McQuirk has ever proved loy- al helpmate to her husband. She made her home happy by her kindly disposition and affable, metherly ways. She is always a friend i'll need when the hand of trouble has pressed heav- fly on her neighbors, and all bear tes- timony of her worth. She keeps up her interest in affairs and can talk en- tertainingiy of Norwich and it's peo- pie in the long ago.
 Seven children were born to the hap py couple and four are still living. There are two daughters, Mrs. Rich lr6 nf nJf6 If 11-Jy ne Nnl z n and Mrs. M. c. Higgins of this city, and two sons. William H. McQuirk, well known here as a carpenter, and Richard McQuirk, who is in business in Texas. There are four grandchil- dren Mrs. McQuirk has a sister in Montello, Wis, and another in Somer- vile. Mass. MT. McQuirk has nieces and nephews in Norwich.
 The anniversary proved a happy af- fair and it pleased the elderly couple to know that they still live close to the hearts of relatives and friends, whose earnest wish is that they may live and love together through many changing years.

LIVE GLOSSY HAIR
 ON HEALTHY SCALPS

To prevent dry, thin and falling hair, remove dandruff, allay itcl1- ing and irritation and promote the growth and beauty ot the hair, frequent shanpoos with Cti- ticura soap, assisted by occasional dressings with Cuticura oint- ment, are usually effective when other methods fail. In preserv- ing, purifying and beautifying the skin, in preventing minor erup- tions from becoming chronic and in the treatment of torturing, dis figuring humors, rashes, itchings and infammations, from infancy to age, these pure, sweet and gentle emollients have no rivals.

MISFORTUNE IF EXPERIMENT
 IS NOT GIVEN CHANCE
Governing Cities fr=-n Capitol Hill
 Steadily Losing Popularity.

The Courant has received the full text of the new city charter proposed for Norwich by a special committee consisting of Henry A. Tirrell, Charles H. Haskell, Hubbard R. Norman, Fred erick w. Cary and Herman Alofsin 2d It is one of the most interesting doc uments which which this office has been blessed for long time, and we hope most sincerely that the pressure of public opinion in Norwich will make possible it's approval by the general assembly. The fundamental principle is home rule, and it is time that the legislature recognized the right of this principle. Governing cit ies from Capitol hill is steadily los- ing popularity.
 The last chapter provides that after five vears of trial. if 9 per cent. Of the electors petition to that effect the people may by majority vote decide whether to continue the new scheme or go back to the charter at present in effect. It will be a misfortune to the state if this experiment in self government is not given it's chance.- Hartford Courant.

 The usual hills, where barrels have been burned for years, were bright spots last night. as well as the other lots which the boys usually pick out wherein to have their fires. That there had been a big haul during the season was evidenced by the large number burned. The weather was eX- ce1lent in every particular and many were out to see the fires.
