WANTS FIRE ORDINANCE FOR NEW LONDON.
Proposal to Establish Office of Fire
 Marshal at Salary of $1,00o.

Alderman Maurice B. Sherman, chair man of the fire committee of the New London court of common council will introduce at the special meeting on Monday evening an ordinance which, following months of careful investi- gation on his part, he is convinced will result in obtaining for New Lon don a standard of fire prevention on a par with the high grade of protec- ton which is now furnished after the blaze originates.
 He proposes to establish the office of fire marshal at a suggested salary of $1,000. the place to be filled by First Assistant Chief Charles H. Rose, who has given 40 years of faithful service to the city at a trif1ing renumera- ton.
 The duties of the new official will in- clude inspection of all building with in the fire limits at regular intervals, hay four times a year. Cellars, stair ways, courts and areas will be visited and the marshal will be empowered to enforce the removal of all rubbish.
 His inspection will likewise give the department a working idea of numer- ous premises which it does not now possess. The marshal, like the chief, will devote his entire time to the posi- tiOn,

NOANk KITCHEN BAR
 TRADE MUST CEASE
No Good Reason Why Dives Should
 Be Allowed to Continue.

An organization is to be made soon to rid the village of Noank of it's sev- eral kitchen bar rooms. In at least four places and almost certainly in one pr two others there Is no doubt whatever of the selling of liquors. The town is nolicense and the delivery of beer from New London has been made the subject of attention rom the state police of late and in some instances stopped or at least hindered in the delivery. There appears no good req son why these kitchen dives should be allowed to continue. In some instan- ces complaints have been made to landlords of noise at night when vil- lage people like to go to slumber early and it is probable that some trouble will be made in certain sections of Noank unless in change is made.
 The selling is. so far as known, con- fined to the Italian residents and, while they are in some cases quiet and unobjectionable, in other ways it is not pleasant to have the business car ried on.

MISSION OPENS AT ST. PATR|CK'S
Three Fathers of the Order of Francis Will Preach Weeks-Direct From Great Jubilee Celebration in New York.

Three priests from the Franciscan monastery in New York, Father Matthew, Father Seraphfm and Fath- CT Chrysostom. began a mission in St. Patrick's church at the high mass on Sunday. The mission is to continue for two weeks, this weeks exercises being for all the women of the par fish, next week being devoted to the men. All the exercises are public; and except that during the present pecial1y for women and during next we&k the evening exercises for men, there is no other restriction and parishioners and all others may attend any of the services.
 Now Is the acceptable time; now is the day of salvation" was the key note of all the services Sunday, which began with the opening sermon at the high mass by Rev. Father Saraphin. It is the first time that Franciscan Fathers have conducted a mission in the Norwich parish, so there was spe- cial interest in hearing the preachers from the celebrated community in New York who last week celebrated the di- amond jubilee of the order in that city. Priests who are sent out to preach during missions are selected for their eminent f1tnee; leaned men, linguists, since they must be able to converse
 with people representing many na- tions, priests of experience and won derful judgment, who have the elo- quence to reach the careless and indif- ferent: yet must at the same time have the gentle persuasion which their instruction of little children also de- mands.
 What a Mission is. The text chosen by Father Sera- phim for the opening sermon was Luke xii-49. I am come to send fire on the earth: but what will I, if 1t be kin dled?
 special visit of God to a parish. While God is always with us if we do not put obstacles in His way, at the time of a mission He seems to walk the very pathways of a parish, to come with special graces. knocking at the door of every home and at the heart of every Christian.
