RED CROSS CHRISTMAS SEALS.
State Tuberculosis Commission Making .l Plans /or Vigorous Campaign.

At the office of the state tuberculosis commission in the capitol plans have
 been perfected for the sale of Red
 Cross Christmas calls for 1916. Last seals were sold in Connecticut, and
 orders amounting to nearly two mil
 lion seals have already been received
 at the capitol this year.

 and towns, and with the aid of these
 agents it is hoped to make the sale of
 Red Cross Christmas Seals larger than ever before. In 1914 Connecticut sold 1,&00,00G seals and stood third in the interstate competition In 1915 Con- necticut sold 2,500,000 seals and stood
 second in the interstate competition. This year 1t is the ambition of the commission to sell 3,500,000 seals and to stand first in the interstate con- petition.

DIRECTOR CONN DEFENDS
 RAcTERtoL LoGiCAL ANALYSIS.
Says It is the Only Satisfactory Basis
 for Grading of Milk.

Meteorological analysis was defend ed as the only satisfactory basis for the grading of milk in an address be- fore the laboratory section of the American Public Health association at Cincinnati by H. w. Conn, director of the laboratories of the Connecticut state board of health. MT. Conn took up the various objections made by laboratory men, purchasers and deal- CTS and gave an answer to each one by quoting the results of an extensive investigation of the subject which he had made in Connecticut.
 For a long time the dairy industry has strongly insisted upon the retain ing of one price of milk by every possible means" said MT. Conn, sum marking the points he had made
 '"This they have done, doubtless, to protect the better dealers from the cut throat prices of those who are willing to produce milk cileaply and careless ly. Unfortunately, the result has been to bring all of the higher grades of milk down almost to the level of the lower. In no other industry can it be said that the poorer grades bring the same price in market as the higher grades. Under these conditions there is not any stimulus to produce higher grade of milk The better class of dairymen receive no stimuIus to pro- NuSC cl bSlICl oOCy S1Ii(S I.'CE CcII SCI no better price than their s1ovenly com petitor.
 The only remedy will come when milk can be sold upon its value. The difficulty, however has been in devis- ing any method by which milk can be
 graded in such a way that the public can rely upon getting what it pays for. The experience of the past two years has shown emphatically that even in a | large city like New York the public is
 not only willing to pay extra for a good supply of milk, but that it can be
 produced and properly guaranteed. The | dealer Is willing to pay the producer a little extra for furnishing such milk and the producer is willing to take the
 extra care if he can get the proper
 pay for it. The grading system of milk offers a way out of the present l cut-throat system by which the in- l dustry has been organized.
 | 'tWhen the time comes that I can gc 1 into a market and buy a bottle of milk i with a certain label on 1t that guaran | tees that the milk has been produced l under conditions that are cleanly and
 safe and that the milk IS fresh. I shall 1 be willing to pay an extra price fo1
 such milk. Experience in New York | in the last two years has shown that 1 this is absolutely true"

WATERFORD BRIDGES
 ARE IN BAD SHAPE,
Officials Are Putting Structures in the South Part of Town in condution.

Waterford officials have been busy making preparations to put the bridges in the south part of the Town in codi- tion for safe travel.
 The bridge at Jordan cove, known as the horse bridge, is badly in need of repair, and has been so for many months and the new planking has been on the site for many months to have the repairs made, but for some reason or other the work was not done Horses are liable to step through the planking, which is rotten The peo- pie that lived this past summer near by the bridge and had to use it every day have repaired the bridge with boards so that no one in the dark ness would step through the large cracks made by broken planking.
 Another bridge that should have been rebuilt many months ago instead of being patched up is the one at Keen ey's cove at Oswegatchie in the Mantle river road, which has just been thor oughly rebuilt. Every stick of timber that is in the bridge now is brand new. That bridge has been replanked in the past with old planking one on top of the other and no particular attention has been paid to the sleepers. When the Workmen took up the old planking and found the old rotten sIeepers they were unable to take them out without having them break all to pieces, they were so rotten, and it was considered a miracle that no one was hurt with practically all of the foundation of the bridge in such a rotten state
 The new concrete bridge at Sandy brook, on the New Haven turnpike, just | east of Jordan cemetery, is being re- built as fast as possible, and at the present time th eeast wall is all built and work on the west wall is progress ing rapidly. It will still be several weeks before this bridge will be com pleted.

OBITUARY.
Mrs. Elizabeth Gilioniy.

Mrs. Elizabeth Gillogly died at the morning at 4.30 o'clock after an illness of ten weeks. She suffered a slight shock and has since steadily failed. A strange coincidence is that a cathedral clock which Mrs. Gillogly was partic- ularly attached to and which she a1- ways kept in her room stopped at ex- actly the minute of her death. AS she breathed her last her son glanced at the clock and as his gaze fingered on it the ticking ceased.
 Mrs. Gillogly came to Norwich in the early 40's from Canada, her early home. She married the late James P. Gillogly and they resided in Norwich till the death of her husband, about l2 years ago. when she went to the

Important Announcement
 Made to Smokers

High Quality of San FeIice Cigars
 Maintained. Now Sell at sc Straight.
 Owing to the greatly increased cost of quality tobaccos, in fact every thing pertaining to high grade cigars, the makers of the San F'elice cigar, The Deisel- l-Wemmer Company. have advanced the selling price to the Jobbers and Dealers, and henceforth this cigar will positively be sold to the consumer at , cents straight in stead of six for a quarter as pre- Hiously.
 The SAN FELIcE is national in it's scope and character, having justly at tained this eminence through it's un- eXcelled excellence. To maintain this unequaled standard of quality, the advance in question is absolutely un- avoidable. The generous support of all men using quality cigars is earn estly desired.
