THE CAUSE OF CRIME
Sc. Capt. J. L. RandalI Brands the Saloon-urees Campaign Against Rum Traffic,


 Capt. :. L. Crandall of Groton gave an address on Temperance, Sunday evening, at the First Congregational church. ClCse attention was given by the large number present to the facts brought out by the speaker.
 through the enactments of the state legislature, he said, the saloon is li- censed to break mothers hearts, ruin homes, destroy the youth and fit men for the lower world. If we vote for legislature to grant licenses are we not responsible for what they do2 They are our agents. The saloon is the most deadly thing in this country and today is doing more damage than any other one agency to all that makes for good citizenship and civic better ment. If you could blot out the sa- loon you would remove the cause of crime, misery. despair and Ghe break ing of law.
 This nation cannot exist half drunk and half sober any more than in Lin coln's time it could rot exist half slave and half-free. How can the foreigners understand our laws? The thing that is legal one side of the river is illegal the other side what is legal one year is illegal the next.
 If we get together we who are against the saloon, we can destroy it. Gird on the whole armor of God Fight all along the line. It will mean a battle. l believe we each may have a part ir the campaign. I don't believe that God will let the awful curse of 1 the rum traffic continue to exist. We must get ir touch with the divine | power. You who are members of the church of God stand true to it and when you vote think what He would | have you do. Who knows but that these churches are here for this fight! And if we fail I believe the work will l be done in some other way.

WILL FLUSH THE
 BRICK PAVEMENT Public Works. Committee Arraness to Have it Done Instead of Sweeping.

Arrangements have been made for the flushing of the brick pavement in stead of sweeping it each night. This work will be done by the public works committee, wno have arranged with the water department to use the hy- drants for this purpose, but It is prob able that 1t will not be started until next week.
 The flushing will be done each night and the merchants will be glad to have the change, inasmuch as the sweeping Btirs up a thick dust to set tie on the windows and walks and which gets into stores through tran sons ard under doors. With the res ervoir practically full, 1t is consid- cred there is sufficient water to take care of this work. Only the brick pavement will be thus treated.
