Lady tombstone. wife Of the British
Minister to Holland, has sent cable
message TO Norman Hapgood, chairman
Of the Committee of Mercy, for funds
for Belgian refugees in Holland. Lady
tombstone was formerly Miss Antoi-
nette Pinchot. She is the sister of Gil
ford Pinchot.
There is one very great and press
ing need which | am sure will appeal
70 the American people" her message
says. at is to enable Belgian women
to obtain useful work. Perhaps you
know that in Holland 100000 Belgian
children and $4,000 women are at pres
ent fed and lodged by the Dutch gov
eminent.
"The Dutch have been noble in their
generosity. They have pressed them
selves to the very limit of their power.
They have had, at one time and another,
100000 refugees TO care for. The
government can only feed and lodge
the innocent victims of the war that
are forced into Holland. II cannot or
ganize work for them. II has no chance
to give them clothing. Therefore it is
particularly necessary that they have
an opportunity to make it for them
selves.

Student Returns.

1T seems to be very difficult to give
something to the town Of Westerly,
judging from this dilatory action" re-
marked Councilman Charles Craig at
the monthly session of the Westerly
town council Monday. The remark
was made after Councilman Haswell
had raised many points Of response
bllity in the part of the town in the
offer Of Mrs Frances G. Griscom to
present the town of Westerly as a
memorial to her husband. Henry A.
Griscom, bronze statue Of Chief Min
igret, made in Paris at an expense Of
$4,000. Mrs. Griscom has already pre-
pared a pedestal for the statue, which
represents Ninigret in a STOPPING po-
Sition with a fish in each hand, with
the intention of having water flow
from the mouths of the fishes, to
quench the thirst Of birds and dogs.
The offer provides for the location Of
the statue at the entrance to Mini
gret avenue, off the Watch Hill road.
Mrs. Grtscom states, however, that If
it ever became necessary, in the judg
ment of the town council to remove
the statue to some other location, it
be to some equally prominent place
within the boundaries of the Watch
Hill fire district. Mrs Griscom also
expressed willingness to bear the ex-
pense OF relocating the iron drinking
fountain, removed to make way for
the gift fountain and statue.
Councilman Haswell. chairman of
the highway committee, raised a ques-
ton as to the legal right Of the plac-
ing Of the original iron fountain at
the entrance to Ninigret avenue and
was of the opinion that the present
pedestal for the bronze statue was
there without authority. He. spoke at
length on these points and urged that
care and good judgment be exercised
before the proposed gift be accepted.
Councilman Thomas explained that
the Watch Hill Improvement Society
was given authority to remove the iron
fountain, and that the present foun-
tain which was to form the base for,
the Ninigret statue) was paid for by
private subscriptions. Subsequently,
Mrs. Griscom paid back the subscrip-
tions direct to the subscribers, and

At the several masses at ST. Mary's
church Sunday the Rev. E. NJ Hayes
announced the fact of his resignation
from this parish to take place at an
early date. This action Is taken upon
the advice Of physicians and friends
who recommend and advise a lengthy
vacation.
1t was with much regret that the
members of the parish and his many
friends outside the church learned Of
this decision.
Father Hayes will not at present
take charge of another parish, nor has
it been decided by the Bishop who will
be his successor here.
During his four years as rector here,
the debt contracted when the new
church was built has been lifted sew
era1 Thousand dollars. The Sisters
Academy has been inauguzated, and
many improvements made about the
church and rectory grounds.
In connection with the estab-
Eshment of the David Hale flaming
park and the purchase, and erection of
the soldiers monument, the wisdom OF
his judgment as a member Of the
committee was much appreciated by
the other members serving with him.

with many pleasant remeanbrances
