HOME GUARD WILL
 PARADE OCT. 14TH. Norwich Automobile Owners Are Asked to Contribute Use of Their Machines.

The regimental staff of the Third regiment of Connecticut Home guard met at New London Friday evenins and voted to turn out in a body on Sunday, Oct. IA, at New London, at which time the regimental colors will
 be presented the Third regiment Those attending the meeting included the following members of the regi- mental staff: Col. E. T. Kirkland Lieut.. Col. Percy Morgan, Maj. Joan A. Hagbrg, Maj. c. P. Williams, Mai H. H. Walker, Capt. Harwood, Lieut.. H. P. Selden and Lieut.. w. Russell Baird.
 The companies in the regiment are Norwich, New London, Westerly, Ston- ineton. Mystic, Old Lyme, WilliWhntic, Putnam and Danielson. The affair is taking place in New London, that be- ing the regimental headquarters and a generous New London woman. The military authorities in New London have consequently been busy raisfn g the necessary funds to bring the en- tire regiment to that city and at pres ent there is about half the necessary amount procured.
 It is suggested that the Norwich automobile owners contribute the use of their automobiles for that day to convey the two companies from here to New London and return. The Nor wich companies will assemble at the armory and will leave, provided they go by automobile, at 1915 noon, and will return. probably, leaving New London about o'clock.
 All of the Norwich citizens who arc willing to provide machines for that day will please mail their names to Home guard auto headquarters, post office box 47. or by telephoning 3s3. There are a number of automobiles owned by the members of the two local companies and naturally these will be brought into use. There are 65 members in each of the Norwich companies and it will take quite a of machines to accommodate all and for this reason it is hoped that the Norwich automobile owners will respond generally to the suggestion so that plans can be laid to mpletely take care of all concerned.
 It Is expected that those who have to travel by trolley will begin to ar

 IMPRESSION oF~ CAMP George H. Auburn Writes Interesting
 Letter 10 Friends in This City.


 sGeorge H.. Auburn, one of the Nor wich boys at Camp Devens at Aver, Mass, has written to friends in this city describing the life there as far as he has seen it. AIr Auburn writes: We were used like kings by the Norwich people, and after leaving the station we were the happiest company of fellows you ever could See.
 We hftd one hours wait in Putnam but after leaving there we traveled straight through to Ayers.
 We arrived there at ' o'clock and were met at the station ley mounted soldiers. Then we started to march after forming in squads. After hay ing marched for over an hour we were halted and were examined by four doctors looking at our chest, mouth and eyes.
 Then we were told that we were to go in sthe Machine Gun Battalion. and again started on our march. Along the line of march We would at times see Norwich boys who came here two weeks ago. I don't know who were the happiest, they or we. but Norwich faces looked good to both..
 At last arrived at our destina- ton, and after entering the barracks our roll call was taken. Then we were divided, some going in Go. A, B. C, and D., but ali into the 301st Machine Gun Battalion.
