MOHEGAN TRAIL PLANS
Orders for Friday Issued by Marshal
 A. P. Woodward.

A. P. Woodward.
 A r. Woodward, who will be mar shaI for the Narragansett tribe, rep resenting Danielson in the Mohegan trail automobile parade Friday, stated Monday that cars for the Danielson division are to form in Academy street and be ready to start promptly at 1919 Friday morning.
 MT. Woodward is now conducting a lively campaign to get the Danielson automobile owners into line that this borough may be well represented in what promises to be a grand opening of an automobile trail that is destined to become famous with tourists rom all sections of the country.
 MT. Woodward is anxious to have all car owners who are going to haV> their machines Ill line Iu nle their names with him as early as possible this week. He also will be prepared to furnish them with the Narra gansett outfit of banners and tomahawks-
 Automobile parties tha are going over the trail nthe special opening have been requested to bring a bas ket lunch.
 Mir. Woodward is anxious to have all the cars that are going in place in Academy street by 10 o'clock next Friday morning, so that the line may be formed and made ready to start without an instants delay when the Webster and Putnam cOnt1ngentS come through, heading southward in to the land of the Mohegans.
 Dividends to Red Cross.
 Attention was called Monday by Clarence A. Potter, chairman of the finance committee of Danielson chap ter of the American Red Cross to a practice that the society urges be fol- lowed throughout the country, i. e., the turning in through the local chap ter of any Red Cross dividends that may be declared by corporations.
 Hundreds of corporations throughout the country each year set aside a special dividend for the Red Cross. This year, under the stress of war, thousands of corporations will be gen erous in this manner.
 Many big manufacturing concerns, like the majority of those within the town of killingly, have their pricipal offices in nearby distant cities. Many times contributions from such concerns go to the credit of the cities that have the offices, not to the towns or cities where the plants are located.
 It is for this reason that the Ameri- can Red Cross society has urged upon the corporations that are to give so generously this week toward the work of the society to turn the dividends in through the local committee in the town where the companies are located
 MT. Potter has expressed a wish, in connection with this nation wide prac- tice, that the rule be given considera- tion also in so far as Killing1y is con cerned.

Giles Everett Woodson, colored, of Brooklyn, was taken from the Wind ham county jail in that place Monday morning by United States Marshall Hawley, brouht to Danielson, and thence taken to Hartford.
 Woodson failed to register in the military enrolment on June 5. The failure was deliberate on his part and at the time it created considerable comment in Brooklyn.
 Woodson was committed to the Jai1 last Saturday after having been round guilty of theft, of a bunch of keys. A fine was imposed, which he could not pay, so he was committed to jail Now Woodson will have 4he federal authorl- ties to deal with for having failed to register, and is liable to a sentence of a year in jail and will be obligated to register also with the prospect, as an alternative to the jail sentence, of being forced to enlist for military ser vice.
 Woodson has been something of a character around the town of Brooklyn for a period of several years. In the past he has advertised himself as a nd-writing expert and he has been student of law. He failed to register it is said, because he was convinced that the government could not force him to do so.
 His is the first non registration case to be taken up in this section of Wind ham county by the federal authorities. Jailer Albert S. Field said Monday that Woodson gave his age as 30 years
