DOG OWNERS PAY
Constable RhoadCs Rounding Up vio-
 lators of Law.

Constable Rhoades, who was ap. pointed by the selectmen short time ago to enforce the law in regard to the keeping of dogs on a leash, has been busy the past week rounding up viola tors of this law. Two arrests were made and convictions secured on both. befo, Justice Ford
 Hyman Krutman had in his posses sion, a female dog, which he had failed to register. Constable Rhoades approached Mir. Krutman over week ago and informed him that he was violating the law, also warning him that he must get the dog registered at once. After nearly week had elapsed, Constable Rhoades again went to see MT. Krutman who informed him that he would register the dog tomorrow. "Tomorrow" was evidently too late, as the constable read warrant for Krutman' arrest, and he was brought before Justice Ford. After trying the case, Krutman was found guilty and ordered to pay fine and costs amount ing to $17.16 and also was ordered to have the dog registered at once, which cost him Sl1.25.
 In the case of Homer Coons, who had female dog, he was ordered to get rid of the dog by last sunday, and it is understood this order has been complied with. The charge against Coons was that he hsd a female dog which had not been properly registered. At one time Mir. Coons had a spayed female which he recently traded for another female, and not thinking to violate the law, he simply transferred the license tags. Fines and costs amounting to $l2 15 were imposed, which were paid at once.
 There are others who have and are violating this law regarding dogs, and the constable expects 60 make other arrests in the near future.

WAR RALLY IN HARTFORD
Opening of Rally Week by Noted
 Speakers. Thrills 1900 People.

Rally Week was appropriately in augurated last Wednesday at Hartford, under the auspices of the state council of defense and the state chamber of commerce.
 Fully 1900 people from all parts of the state, gathered at Foot Guard Armory, which was elaborately dec orated with flags of the allied nations. and bunting. Three of the country's noted orators. seconded by the first liberty chorus to be organized, which consisted of 400 pupils of the Hartford High School stirred the patriotism of the large audience to fever heat.
 Edward P. Jones of Winsted, presi. dent of the Connecticut Chamber of Commerce spoke briefly of the meet ings to be held Tn the cities of the state in the next few days, to kindle patriot ism, and then presented Richard M. Bissell of Hartford, chairman of the Connecticut State Council of Defense, who presided. Sitting with the speake; s were Monsignor Thomas S. Duggan, Rabbi Harry W. Ettleson, Rev. Dr. William Douglas Mackenzie, and Miss Caroline Ruutz-Rees, chairman of the committee on women's activities of the state council.
 The colors of the Allied Nations and the singing of "The Marseillaise'' as 1 the speakers advanced to the platform, preceded by the flag of Poland, drew the first applause of the afternoon and from that time until the close of the speaking three hours later, applause was freqeunt and hearty.
 Frederick O. Walcott, assistant to Food Administrator Hoover was the first of the three speakers. MT. Walcott quoted the words of Won Bissing in Belgium and of Ven Bessler, who showed him about Poland, to reveal the purpose of Germany to remove the natives of the land in order that Ger. many could have the land for her own people, and it was because of this an. nounced intention of Germany that Hoover brought about the feeding of Belgium, and attempted, unsuccess- fully, because of difference between Germany and England, of similar treatment of the people of Poland. He said that Russia had gone mad since the revolution and would have little to do with the former partners of their old i government.

PROCLAMATION BY PRESIDENT
Oct. 28 Day of Prayer for Success of
 American Arms.

President Wilson by proclamation declared Sunday, October 28 as a day of prayer for the success of the AIneri- can arms in the war, in accordance with the recent resolution of congress.
 Tn presidents proclamation is as follOws:
 "Whereas, the congress of the United States, ny a concurrent resolution adopted on the fourth day of the preseLt month of October, in view of the entrance of thIs country into the war. which now affiicts the greater part Of the world, has instructed me to set aside by proclamation day on which our people should be called upon to offer concerted prayer to Almighty God tor His divine aid in the successes of our arms and
 "Whereas, 1t behooves great people nurtured as we have been in the eternal principles of justice and of right, a nation which has sought from the earliest days of its existence to be obe- dient to the divine teachings which have inspired it in the exercise of its liberties to turn always to the Supreme Master and cast themselves at His feet praying for His aid and succor in their hour of trial, to the end that the great arms to which our fathers dedicated our power as people may not perish among men, must be always asserted and defended with fresh ardor and devotion, and through the divine bless. ing set at last upon enduring founda. tions for the benefit of all the free peoples of the earth;
 ''Now, therefore, I, Woodrow Will. son, president of the United States, gladly responding to the wish expressed by the congress, do appoint October twenty eight, being the last Sunday of the present month, as a day of suppli- cation and prayer for all the people of the nation, honestly exhorting all my countrymen to observe the appointed day, according to their several faiths in solemn prayer that Gods blessing may rest upon the high task which is laid upon us, to the end that the cause for which we give our lives and treasure may triumph and our efforts be blessed with high achievements"

Rally Week Closes But There
 Is Still Time to Buy e Bond
Statewide Meetings Show Purpose of People Will Help to Win War
 More Than 500 People Gather to Hear Hon. Chester Dewitt
 Pugsey of Peeksk N Y and Gather Patriotic Inspiration from Spirit Speakers. Final Drive to Sell Bonds Necessary

ferences might be characterized as the beginning, an arbitration court and some form of joint forces on the part of the signatory nations to such an agreement, to enforce the submission of disputes to such a procedure, and to secure sanction for the enforcement of international war, and interpretation of it by world court.''
 At the close of his address. MT. Pugsley was given hearty applause. after which MT. Roraback again ad. dressed the audience, stating that there was no better time than the present to buy Liberty bonds. He explained that the Canaan National bank was ready and willing to carry the bonds for any one on small weekly or monthly pay ments, and it had been figured out that if one purchased a $100 bond, they would, in the end only pay little more than $98 for them.
 Miss Saygers, Miss Collins, Miss Roraback, Miss Considine, Mrs. Ross and Miss Camp, then passed applioa' tion blanks among the audience which resulted in the sale of 38 Liberty bonds.
