 Beer Before the War of Independence.
 Over century and a quarter be- fore General George Washington, the father of his country took command of the armies of the Revolution, Fath- CT Knickerbocker, through his Dutch settlers built breweries and brewed beer in what was then known as New Netherlands, at present New York. During the war for independence the brave sireS and sons of liberty who fought to free the new world from the letters of foreign bondage were sup piled with beer brewed in old New York. The Ruppert Brewery today stands as a model of perfection and is one of the greatest breweries in the of it's kind in New York. Seeing is believing and we invite you to see how we make and handle our beers, especially in our bottling houses, where everything is handled with such perfect sanitation and scientific cleanliness. Ruppert's Knickerbock- CT Beer is the chosen beverage be- cause it is made from the choicest material that can be produced from the fields of nature. and brewed by the most modern methods and ma chinery ever invented by the art of man for the brewing and bottling in- dustry. Knickerbocker beer is health full, appetizing and satisfying. Have the Bridgeport branch send a case of this brewery bottled beer to your res- idence. Telephone 577

bang0r Te1epn0ne Servlce New Exchange Equipment Started in Very Short
 Time

The fire which devastated the city of Bangor on Sunday was not consid- cred under control until well along in- to Monday morning. At 11:30 Sunday night a new telephone exchange to re- place the one which had been wiped out by the flames had already started on it's long, journey from a New York factory.
 In this case, as in the case of many other disastrous fires, one of the first thoughts was the restoration of tele- phone service. Without telephones the people directing the work of re- construction in Bangor were sadly handicapped, and 1t was with the real 1zat1on that every possible speed was necessary that steps were taken to re- build the burned out telephone sys- tenn long before the flames had begun to subside.
 As soon as the fire had reached the telephone exchange word was dis patched to the Boston house of the Western Electric Company, the con- cern which supplies all the Bell tele- phone apparatus. From Boston a telephone message was immedfately sent to the executive offices at New York, where emergency equipment is Kept for just such a purpose. Not w1thstanding the fact that it was on a Sunday, and it was late, so that the difficulty of assembling a working force immediately was doubled, it was not very long before activities com menced at the conlpany's factory, and seven trucks with drivers and suffi- cient workers were speedily assem- bled. The emergency force worked all night. At S:52 p. m. the men had received instructions to ship the board to the New England Telephone and Telegraph Company
 The equipment, weighing 50.000 pounds, occupied two cars. It was dispatched on the first passenger ex- press leaving early Monday morning on it's way to Bangor via Albany. The switchboard, which is considered ade- Qlate to take care of the telephone needs of the stricken city until new exchange can be planned and built. is being installed temporarily in a dance hall. It consists of seven sec tions and hasa capacity of 5000 sub- scribers' lines
 This record-breaking action is con- eidered a remarkable feat. It is an illustration of the fact that every pos sible care, even involving the expen- allure of a large sum of money, as in this case, in keeping on hand a costly emergency stock. Is taken to prevent any serious Interruption to the public service A complete cessation of tele- phone service would be a calamity.

them, but the circular contained little
or no information more than what the

wish you would come in and pay US,
and when we are prepared to act we
will pay the depositors what We owe
them, or pay them in pro rata.

v. I. s. MEETING

The Society held the most enthusi-
astic meeting of the year last Tues
day at their club rooms. All commit
tees were represented and reports
showed increased interest in plans
outlined few weeks ago by the pres
ident.
The cemetery committee working
in conjunction with the city cemetery
committee have made arrangements
by which individuals may have their
lots watered by the sexton for SO
cents per month for one lot, Is cents
for two lots, 81 for larger lots. The
sexton will have owners desiring this
service record their names with him,
making payment in advance. Any
complaints for lack of attention
should be made to the V. l. S., or
Mr.. Peck, who is chairman of the
city committee.
Mr.. Biethan called during the ses-
sion, representing the water company,
to say that so much trouble had en-
sued from disobeying rules in regard
to sprinkling that the company had
thought out plan that might ad-
just matters satisfactorily to all con-
cerned. At present the water users
rules call for fine of $40 imposed
upon any person using the hose for
sprinkling at other than fixed hours,
from to 8 in the evening, also for
using hose without nozzle or sprink-
ling attachment. A number of water
users claiming this fine is imposed in
the way of graft to fill the Golfers of
the company, Mr.. Biethan proposed
giving all money accruing to the COM
pany through this cause to the v. I.
s., thus disabusing the minds of all
who doubt the sincerely of the COM
pany. While the Society will not
wish to see people made subject to
the fine, they will cheerfully accept
all cash from this source and put it
to good use. 1t Is useless to say
very hearty vote of thanks, accom-
panied by broad, cheerful smile,
was given Mr.. Biethan for the gener-
osity of the company.
