AN APPEAL FOR
 EUROPEAN WAR SUFFERERS. Local Committee Sends Out Circular
 Letter to People of Norwich.

The local committee working in CO., operation with the American commit tee for Armenian and European relief have sent out appeals to the people of Norwich in the form of a circular let ter. The letter states that out of two millions of people who one year ago had their homes and their industries in the Turkish empire. fully one-half are dead, either slaughtered outright or victims of the unspeakably cruel treatment received at the hands of the Turks.
 Large numbers of those who remain will die from starvation and exposure if not speedily helped It is estimated that $5 will provide food, shelter and some necessary clothing for one per son for a month. Can we living in comfort allow these worthy people to perish?

thorized the expenditure for addi- tional equipment over S4,500, GOO. The total amount involved in the equip ment ordered and authorized from Sept. 1, 1913, to Dec. 31, 1915, is s10,- 500,OOO.
 Orders have also been placed for three Mikado locomotives and for other equipment for the Central New England railway involving an ex- penditure of $2O0,00O.
 The company plans to spend addi- tional millions of dollars on various improvements to provide the facili- ties demanded by the business of New England. Expenditures for these millions however can only be author ized as rapidly as the funds can be provided and the necessary men and materials obtained. Deliveries of new equipment are slow because builders are having trouble in obtaining ma terial promptly. For example, B pow erful freight engines ordered in au- tumn of 1915 and promised to the company in January and February 1916. will not be received before April or May. Fifty of the most powerful passenger locomotives ever introduced into the service were ordered in Feb ruary, 1916, and delivery is promised by August. With eighty-three new and powerful locomotives the com pany will be able to improve the re- liability of it's service which has not been satisfactory to it nor to its pat rons for some time. The heavy en- zines will naturally be used on the main line where trains are heaviest and this will permit the engines now in use there to take the place of the lighter engines on the other parts of the road which are now too light for the volume of business and the weight of cars.

THE MIRROR OF GODS BOOK.
Rev. Joel B. SIocum D. D. Spoke at
 Y. M. C. A. Shop Talk.

A Mirror for Man was the subject upon which Rev. Joel B. Slocum, D. D., spoke at the International Silver Company's plant, Monday noon, under the auspices of the Y. M. c. A. Mrs. George T. Lord rendered a solo and Dr. Slocum and Mrs. Lord sang a duet.
 Rev. pr. Slocum said:
 We have our little joke about mir TOTS being especially for women, but I want to talk to you about a mirror for men. Paul, writing to the Corin- thians, said: For now we see in a mirror dar4sly." Tn another letter to these same people he wrote: But we all, with unveiled face behoIding as in 8 mirror the glory of the Lod are transformed into the same inase from glory to g1ory'' Transformed by a mirror. That is a nncrkable statement, and yet think it is entire ly trtic.
 What is this looking glass that pro- duces such remarkable resuitso I must have some magical qualities. It must be something like Aladdin's lamp. You know that according to the story, all that Aladdin had to do was to rub tho lamp and whatever he might wish would be granted. But

 DIVIDENDS WERE PAID.
Former State Treasurer's Letter Pre- scented at G. and s. Rate Hearing.

Denial was made in letter written by former State Treasurer Costello Lippitt of Norwich to Representative Charles T. Crandall of Groton, pre- scented at the public utilities hearing in Hartford Monday, of the charge that dividend had been paid on the stock of the Groton and Stonington Street railway in 1912 which had not been earned. The hearing was the third in an appeal of patrons of this trolley line from a new zone system fare sched- ule put in operation last November. Senator B. H. Hewitt of Mystic, who represented the Twentieth district in the last legislature, is acting as coun- sel for the petitioners.
 When yesterdays hearing closed all testimony had been taken with the exception of that of an expert con corning the physical valuation of the road at the present time. This will be used some time before the interstate commerce commission gives it's hear ing on the rate case at Mystic March 10

Trolley patrons on the Montvflie and Nortch line are up in arms over the adoption of the copper zone sys- tenn on this division by the Shore Line Electric Railway company. I've peti- tions are already in circulation protest ing against the action of the company and are being largely signed. Attor- ney John J. Lawless prepared them at the request oS numerous patrons of the road and he will be retained to pesent them in proper form before the public utilities commission.
 From Best View to Norwich itself there is apparent a very general re- monstrance against the new fare sys- tenn, which Attorney Lawless 2clared Tuesday virtually represents an in crease of from 20 to 50 per cent
 Any argument advanced by the trolley company that the new system is in any sense a reduction is merely a subterfuge," said Attorney Lawless. ''The change is made to increase the revenue of the company and for that purpose alone. The Norwich line is the best paying one in this section and there is no good reason why its pa irons should be heavily assessed to de- fray the losses on some other branch of the load"
 Attorney Lawless cited instances where passengers are walking several hundred feet rather than pay the extra

three cents which the trolley company now demands for that distance. Num- erous patrons, he continued, who for raerly paid five cents to ride to New London are now charged eight, mak- ing. a daily increase for those who make two round trips Of 12 cents and Q percentage increase Of more than 50 Fer cent.
 Attorney Lawless further fntimated that while the fare limits now hXed by tlre company might appear reason able theoretically, as a matter of fact they are so adjusted that if passen- ger left the car at what would appear to be an economical point, he would find himself in the woods, so to speak, and would be obliged to come across with another payment to get to point of reasonable civilization.
 Remonstrants to the new system de- clare they have still another friev- ance against the company in that they received no formal notification of the increased rates.
 Peter Taylor of Quaker Hill said Tuesday that he is paying 12 cents more daily for rides than heretofore. He cited a case of where two strang- CTS who wanted to go to point a few wards beyond Quaker Hill, to which they might readily have walked, had they known the locality, were charged an extra nicl<le for the brief trip.

the chief ference between his lamp
 and the mlrrO- that I want to tell you about, is that there never was such a thing as Aladdin's lamp, and there is such a thing as this wonder full mirror for men. I think each one Of you men must have one of these
 magical looking glasses at home. If you look into it often enough and tioughtfulIy enough you will be transformed. The mirror that I am talking about is a book. AS we look into this most wonderful of all books, we may see the outlines cf the most majestic character that ever lived Him and the more we look at Him in His mirror, the more likely we ae to be transform ed into the same image. The change will begin in our inmost character and 1t will not stop until iu shines out on our very faces.
 full article. 1t suggests to us our de- fects, and, if they are not too deep, it enables us to correct, at least some of them. Out in Indiana, a State Industrial school bought num- Der of mirrors in order to inspire the girls to fix themselves up.
 In an Italian city there was a beau tifUl statue. It represented a Greek slave girl, tidy, well dressed and at- rractive One day ragged, unkempt. forlorn street child, seeing the statue as she as coming home from her play, gazed upon it in great admira- tiGn Then she went home and wash ed her face and combed her hair. An other day she stood and looked at the statue as though fascinated. Then she went home and mended her clothes. And so each time she looked at the statue in the market place she got some new idea which she was able to apply to her condition. She came to be a transformed girl. So believe you and I will become purer and nobler by looking daily into the mir TOT of Gods book. We will see in the character of Jesus something to in- spire us at each step of the way; something to help us at each place of difficulty.
