Mrs. Frank a. Roath Hospitality
opened her beautiful home on WASH
ington street to the ladies' auxiliary of
the Y. NJ. G.. A. for meeting on
Tuesday afternoon, at which an excel
lent address was given by Charles r.

Nearly $50 members Of the auxiliary
were in attendance and We're cordially
received by Mrs. Roath, assisted bv
Mrs. Frank A. Mitchell, president, and
Mrs. Henry F. Palmer. secretary of the
auxiliary. A song by Miss owen of
Taftville opened the meeting after
which Mrs. Mitchell introduced Mr..
Towson, who gave an interesting talk
upon the Y. NJ. G. A. in connection
with Industrial work He gave a
broad outlook upon the whole great
work of this organization which was
encouraging and inspiring and held
the close attention of his audience
He spoke first of the many brilliant
centers like this place of meeting, in
which the best and highest minds were
showing interest in the work There
are other centers not so brilliant, but
more rornantic-in coal mines car
barns, and cotton mills, where the
same interest is shown. Business
men everywhere are recognizing the
economic value and the socializing
force of Christianity and are giving
literally and helping in every way to
give impetus to the mighty movement
to it's first aim-to carry the message
of salvation from sin.
He gave many personal incidents,
giving the unanswerable testimony of
these giants of finance to the value
of Y. M. c. A. work. Copper compa-

Y. M, C. A. INDUSTRIAL
AND EMlGRANT WORK
c. S. Towson of New York Tells of
Its Accomplishments Here and in
Canada.

C. S. Towson of New York, who is
at the head of the Y. NJ. G. AS in
dustrial and emigration work in the
United States and Canada, visited this
city on Tuesday under the auspices
of the Norwich association for a Sc
ries of conferences with the general
purpose of showing what the associa-
ton is doing for men in the Industrial
world.
In the evening at o'clock at the
association building, Mr.. Towson took
supper with the committeeman of the
association, 40 being seated at the ia
bles. Ladies from the Trinity Metho-
dist Episcopal church served the sup
per- which was in charge of Mrs. Will
liam r. Denison, assisted by Miss Amy
F. Burlingame, and the following wait
resses, Miss Viva Hines. Miss Grace
Lathrop, Miss Myrtle Hines and Miss
Elizabeth Lane. The attractive menu
comprised tomato bisque cold tongue,
potato salad, rolls, cake, coffee, and
ice cream. An orchestra played DUR
ing the supper hour.
The thanks of the company were
presented to the ladies by Noah Lucas,
after Vice President James L. Case
had called the meeting to order for
a few words from Mr.. ToWson at the
conclusion of the supper.
Mr.. Towsons vigorous words to the
committeeman were based upon the
BIBLICAL PASSAGE. lie lHdl Is SldCh Is
brother to him that is destroyer. He
pointed out how the demand of the
industrial world is twofold now, call
ing for the maximum of output with
the minimum of waste. The great de-
mand today is for efficiency in men.
The association has 66 million in prop
erty but more important than that
are the sc thousand committeeman. 1t
is the committeeman of the Norwich
association that will make possible
the conservation of manhood in Nor
wich against the destroying forces.
They should not be neglectful or slack
of placing within the reach of men
the opportunities for their help and
betterment. The message of the Cos
pei. the thing that the church stands
for, is what is making the associa-
ton powerful, he told his hearers. It's
a big thing to be connected with and
proud of and it's winning because the
best men are in it and because God
is back of it.
General Secretary w. A. Morse
spoke briefly and the meeting closed
with three cheers for Mr.. Towson.

THIN FOLKS MADE FAT.

Good, healthy flesh can only be
gained by the use of the proper food,
together with natural action of the
organs of assimilation Nine people
out of ten in order to weigh as much
as they ought and be perfectly healthy,
should use Samose, the great flesh
forming food and health restorer.
Weigh yourself before commencing to
use these little tablets. and see how
your weight increases from week to
week
Samose does not contain a particle of
starch or pepsin, nor is it any nause-
ating preparation, such as is usually
recommended to make people fat, and
which does not build up good healthy
tissues. Samose has valuable flesh
forming properties. tones up and
strengthens the whole system. helps
the food that is eaten to be assimilat-
ed in a natural manner, and absolutely
restores health to all the organs.
If you are not perfectly satisfied with
the results from Samose. Utley e
Jones will return your money without
any quibbling.

An increase in 1910 over 1909 of
s6,9S0.93 in the postal receipts of the

ceiptS, which means the sale of
stamps, stamped envelopes. etc, were
$67,646.52 as compared with S60,965.60
the preceding year. The month of
December, 1910, made a big figure in
this department. exceeding the cor
responding month in 1909 by $1,000.
As an index of the city's prosperity,
the postoffice business certainly shows
no lost ground. Inside of the past
IL years, the Norwich postoffice bus
mess has doubled.

Everything being ready a test of
the machinery in the pumping station
was made on Tuesday afternoon about
$50 O'Clock. Supt. J. J. Cookery and
Engineer c. E. Chandler being in at
tendance with a number of others.
Engineer Stephenson had charge of
the pumps, and it was found that there
was plenty of power and that the
motors and pumps were in every way
efficient, doing their work to a point
belond which it will be required when
the pumping into the mains is start
ed.
The pumps were run singly and to-
gether and the water pumped was sent
out the waste pipe into the brook
again. A half to three-quarters of an
hour was taken in making the tests,
the pressure secured being % per cent.
more than will be necessary. The
pumps were run at the 125-pound
pressure point for some time and they
did their work splendidly. The test
showed that everything is in readiness
for the use of the pumping station
when it is required, but it is possible
that it will not be required right

The third pump for the pumping
station has arrived and will be taken
to the station today, it is expected.
This is the same as the second, being
direct connected with the motor. Ev-
erything is ready to set this pump and
motor, and it will not take very long
before it can also be made ready for
use. In case it is decided not to keep
three pumps, the one to be returned
will probably be the belted one.

the measurement showed that the wa

benefit the reservoir is getting from
it's own springs and brooks is serving
to supply as much water as is taken
from the reservoir daily.
