 Local president, David Hillson. inz troduced the speaker, who spoke of the many lines of work that are plan ned for to be carried out through the national organization. One of these in which the Norwich association is an- ticipating much from is the plan to have 8 number of speakers of the high est prominence at the service of the Young Mems Hebrew association who will be sent to the local associations to deliver lectures upon topics of gen. eral public interest.
 MT. Goldsmith also spoke along lines which the local association is already pursuing. especially in it's purpose of influencing Jewish men to become cit izens, with the intention that every. foreign born Hebrew shall become a citizen.
 The '. M. H. A. here has a mem bersllip of 80 now. and over half of these attended the meeting.

A junior society is a possibility of development and assistance to the needy and deserving is another branch of the work that it is the intention of the local officers to carry out.

EAsTERLY GALE suFFErEp
 THE SOUND STEAMERS
Steering Gear Broken on New York-- 0answay Doors Smashed on An other.

Sound traffic felt the force of the storm heavily Sunday night. Steamer New York of the Central Vermont line, Captain Strickland. broke her Sarah's ledge buoy at s.30 Monday morning. The steamer anchored at once and the engineers began repairs By signal whistles steamer Tasco of the Scott fleet was called and taking the New York in tow brought her up Fort Trumbull in New London har- Dor.
 Captain Strickland sent word ashore to Superintendent McCraw of the Central VermoLN railroad that the force of engineers would be able to make the repairs without sending out machin1sts and that the steamer would be ready to leave again between 10 and II o'clock. She got under way just before Il and went down the har- Dor.
 Steamer New York did not leave her wharf aat New London until s.so. At 2 o'clock the wind was so strong that there was danger of the steamers breaking her propellors in swinging away from the wharf and Superin- tendent McCraw ordered a tug from the Scott Co, which was used to hold the steamer away from the wharf un- til the New York could be worked far enough into the stream so there would be no danger.
 Steamer New London of the same line came from drydock at Erie basin Saturday and loaded her quota of freight at New York. Captain Dur kee brought her ftp with the wind from northeast blowing a gale. The seas that broke into her side smashed Tn the gangway doors and freight around the gangways was slightly damaged.
 SSta9rna. rzaa~s-s. <,e +hA rsa. Sst9fa line to Fall River was driven in to New London and sent her passengers overland to Providence and Fall River. The Georgia came along through the Sound safely, reporting no damage but a rough trip and many seasfck pas- senRers. The prospect of getting through the Race were not alluring and the danger of rounding Point Ju- cith was too great to warrant the Georgia making the hazard.

MUST PRODUCE PAPERS. New Regulation Affecting old soIdiers
 Drawing Pensions.

Veterans of the Civil war who are pensioners have received with their pension checks payable Dec. notice of new regulations for the payment of the quarterly check due in March and all succeeding checks. They will be obliged to produce their original pen sion papers and the numbers on the papers will have to conform to the numbers on the checks. The checks will have to be endorsed by two per- sons who vouch for the identity of the payee. No notary public will have any right to execute pension order unless the pension certificate is produced.
 The department says the real pur- pose of the new order Is that the vet erans may keep track of their pension papers. If they have to producer them every three months, they will know just where they are, say the pension officials, and they also say that 1t will save much work in supplying new pa- pers to replace lost ones.

George Riddle read the follow ing brief paper on Individuality:
 No two blades of grass, two grains of sand, or two flowers, are exactly alike; it is equally so that no two persons are exactly alike It is not probable that we shall ever lose our own individual ity, for if we did it would really be the destruction of our personal iden- tlty, and without personal identity there would be for us no immortality.
 Now since we are, above all things else, individuals, let us each and every one be at our very best; every one known in history as a leader, whether for good or bad, are known as men or women of marked individuality; their mental, moral and even physical make- up has been peculiar to themselves. This marked individuality is not even destroyed by grace, and we very much doubt if it is by death.
 The practical duty is for each one of us to strive to be our best and noblest self; not aiming to be like anyone else but Christ Let us make full sur render of ourselves to God.
 Let us individually bring ourselves to the foot of the cross of infinite sac r1hce, there every stain may be washed away in blood; purged with fire from off Gods altar; then we may so forth, each one of us in our divineIy appoint ed place. to do for the regeneration of humanity what God from before the foundation of the world" destined that we should do.
 self in the most degraded; in each one of us there is a noble self struggling for a hearing. for greater freedom of action, for a nearer approach to Christ, its Creator. Redeemer and Sa- viour.
 Let this be the principal aim of our lyceum, to bring out. develop and vfss ualize the higher self saved by con- tact with the Infinite Spirit, cIeansed by faith in the blood of the Infinite Sacrifice, as we live the life in union with God which He from all eternity intended.
