doesn't guarantee a kind that will give

your oil from the Independent Oil Co.,
the kind that does not smoke or splut-

Don't vote the ballots being sent
out by the Tribune" is the word of
Margaret Haley, business agent of
the federation, to teaehers. Keep
the ballot for future reference, but
don't vote. Remember what Mr.
Dooley said, Let amy one vote, but
let me count the ballots"
Some one in the school board office
has furnished the Tribune with list
of the substitute teachers. The fed
Grafton is unable to learn by what
authority the Trib got this for

Trib is polling substitute teachers
though they are not eligible to mem.
bership in the Teachers Federation.
There's going to be fine mess for
Trustees Loeb and Rothman to
straighten out when it comes to a
strict working out of the rule they
passed by vote of II to to kill the
federation. Angus Roy Shannon, at
torney for the board, has written out
the kind of blank form he thinks
is meant by the Loeb rule. By the
strict language of the Loeb resolu-
ton, it's what Shannon says the
Loeb resolution means. 1t reads in
part:
81 am not and I will not become
a member of any of the prohibited or
CARNATIONS.
1t looks as though Atty Shannon,
takes the Loeb rule strictly to mean
that teachers are shut out from Join
ing any teachers organization with
paid officials. This means the Fed

Teachers will have to be busted. No

by the pastor, Rev. Joel B. Slocum,
D. D., the sons and daughters of the
Central. Baptist church observed on
Wednesday evening the 18th annivers-
airy of the founding of the church.

appreciation of the church and its
splendid history.
The meeting was called to order in
the lecture room at 7.45 o'clock by the
pastor and after the opening hymns,
George A. Turner, leading the sing
ing, DR.. Slocum read as the scrip
tural selection, Matthew 1s: 1920.
DR.. Slocum then referred to Jacobs
vision which prompted him to name
the spot where he saw the vision,
Bethel, Hebrew for Gods House. The
pastor spoke of the sacredness in
which Jacob held Bethel and he said
that if the people who have been con-
nected with the Central Baptist church
could ennumerate their emotions they
would speak of the sacredness in
which they hold their church.
An earnest prayer was offered by
DR. Slocum and a number Of those
present spoke very feelingly Of their
association with the church.
Mrs. Charles. W.. Gale spoke of the
interest her mother, Mrs. Anna w.
Hakes takes in the church. Mrs
Hakes is now 90 years old and is the
oldest living member Of the Central

The Central Baptist church was
organized in September, 1910, with q
list of 81 charter members. In that
year the Rev. Miner G. Clark, a
Baptist clergyman. came to Norwich
seeking health. His quick prophetic
eye soon fixed upon a strategic point
which might be occupied to the advan-
tage Of the denomination. He stat

quaintances. the thought took root,
and out of the prayer and consul
