life-boat was smoking, and ap-
parently enjoying the pleasant
morning.
What really happened was that a
big submarine came up about a mile
away and began Smelling us with two
four-inch guns. We were Zig-Zag-
ging and probably fooled him, so
that he niscalculated and couldn't
launch his torpedo. At least no one
saw one.
Shots Go Amiss.
His first shot went over the boat,
missing the bridge by about eight
feet. The next two went over the
boat, and in front of us. One hit
near enough at the side to splash
water on the men on the lower deck.
One exploded over the stern and
knocked two men down. They fired
As shots and we fired 3S, all but four
from our stern. Our four shots hit
close enough to him so that he sub
merged until his deck was awash,
which put one Of his guns out Of
commission. He hit fairly close to four
sides of us, but didn't touch our
boat. We were running straight
ahead and away. His last shot was
40 minutes after his first went
astern.
v 1T was good fun after 1t was all
over, as no one was hurt, but at the
time IL wasn't altogether pleasurable.

or two later, as nearly as we can

NEW RED CROSS AUXILIARY
Organized in Canaan, at Largely
Attended Meeting.

About seventy.five ladies and half
dozen gentlemen gathered at the town
hall Tuesday afternoon in response to
the call for a meeting to consider the
organization of the Red Cross work in
Canaan.
The committee appointed at the
meeting of the Visiting Nurse Associa.
ton reported that they had met and to
them it seemed advisable that Red
Cross Auxiliary be formed.
The various parts of the Red Cross
work was briefly described by Rev. L.
Q. Gillette who acted as chairman.
After general discussion it voted TO
proceed to organize an Auxiliary, the
membership to consist of all those who
had Joined or would become members
of the American Red Gross.
The committee then nominated the
following for officers:
Mrs. r. d. Peirce, Chairman;
Mrs. I. d. Cam, Vice. chairman;
Mrs. J. G. Adam, Secretary;
Mrs. J. H. Roraback, Treasurer;
Miss Mary Collins, Corresponding
Secretary.
They were duly elected and We're to
constitute the executive committee.
After a thorough discussion as to the
name it was finally voted that the
name be the North Canaan Auxiliary.
1t was voted that the executive COM
mittee be empowered to name such
subcommittee as necessary.
Miss @. H. Roraback was called on
to tell about the organization of the
Twin Lakes Red Cross. She said there
was largely attended meeting held
Monday afternoon at the cottage of
Mrs. J. O. Thomson on the west shore.
An organization was effected and the
ladies decided that whatever money
was made from their sales would be
turned over to the Canaan Auxiliary.
Their first effort was to be food sale
to be held Saturday afternoon, July 81
from to O'Clock at Mrs. Thomson's.
Any orders could be telephoned to the
cottage. A hearty vote of thanks was
given to the Twin Lakes ladies.
Mrs. Christine Grouse of Los Ange-
les, who is visiting in town, briefly
addressed the ladies on the possibilities
of the work. ..rf
DR.. Goddard, who happened in, also
spoke word of greeting and wished
the new Auxiliary success.
1t was announced that there would
be canning demonstration at Pilgrim
church tomorrow afternoon at o'clock
Miss Jessie Donalds, who has taken a
courHa in the work in Storrs. will show
how peas and beet green's should be
canned. Every woman was urged to be
present promptly at o'clock.

EVERY WEED AN ENEMY.

Every weed is an enemy of the 'sol.
diers of the commissary" who are max.
ing gardens.
All these troublesome vagrant plants,
that gain footholds in the garden,
forage upon the plant food and water
which should be available to built up
food plants.
They stunt some vegetables by steal
ing their sustenance and crowd out
and shade others.
From morning until night weeds
that are allowed to grow in garden
work steadily against the interests of
the gardener, and the longer they are
left undisturbed the greater becomes
their capacity for harm.
If you have not begun to free your
garden crops of the weed enemies that
are probably attacking them now, you
should lose no time in beginning your
campaign. It is a warfare that you
will have TO wage, off and on, all sea-
son, but if you bring superior force
into p lay early, you will be able to
confine the enemy to struggling guer-
rilla offensive that will cause little
destruction.

CUT RYE AND OATS FOR HAY.

With all grains at unheard of prices,
it is not necessary to call attention to
the need for growing all we can at
home. On the other hand, hay and
other roughage is absolutely essential
on most New England farms. Rye
makes fair bay or can be put in the
silo. Oats make very good hay, especi-
ally when grown together with peas.
Moreover, the prospects for large hay
crop are not the best. 1t would seem
wise then to consider carefully whether
~ e and oats sown for hay, cannot be
allowed to ripen for threshing. Grain
we must grow if this war is to end in
our favor-but COWS and other stock
also need hay. 1t is problem to be
settled on individual needs.-Agrono-
