BALTIC. :
St. Mary's Parish Starts Temperance Society with Twenty two Members Game with Hanover Team Sat- urday.

meeting of the men of St. Mary's parish was held in the Sodahty room at the rear of the church Monday eve ming, for the purpose of forming temperance society. A large number were interested in the plan, as at pres ent there is no temperance union in this town and the need for one is bad ly felt. The pastor, Rev. U. O. Belle rose. spoke earnestly to the men. John Norton of Norwich also spoke to the assembly present stating that he had not touched a drop of liquor in the past forty years, and what he could do, these men ought to be able to do.
 The chief speaker of the evening was William H. McGuiness county society of Norwich. MT. McGuiness said that he would like to get the men together and form a good sized temperance society and that by this he included every man in St. Mary's parish over the age of sixteen and of any nationality. Also. he said. the society need not necessarily be made up of fnveterate drinkers. but that men of temperate habits should join the society, for many of the men in the temperance societies throughout the state have never drank in their life and these men are needed in the so- ciety to set a good example for the rest of the members. This speech was applauded vigorously: twenty-five men handed in their names signifying a de- sire to belong to the society. The pastor and members intend to fit up rooms where q social evening can be spent in clean, legitimate amusement.
