Joseph w. Alsop of Avon, 8 mem

Joseph w. Alsop of Avon, a mem Der of the Connecticut State Council of Defense, in an interview with 8 representative of the council given out today in the series of "Made-in- Connecticut War Interviews" an- swers the question Why do we raise our army by conscription?" with the following statement:
 "The benefits of our government and the responsibilities for it's carry ing on should fall alike on all. The first duty of every person to our coun- try is to protect home and family and to sustain tho form of government to save which this war Is on our part be- ing waged.
 ''1n former days wars were fought by only a small part of the popula- tion. Each man, woman and child has his or her part of the burden to bear and must share in the war and it's results
 When we fight, we must fight with our whole power and energy or else we shall fail. To each individual there must be the task assigned for which that individual is best adapted
 '.In times of peace we enjoy in this land of ours, unexampled benefits and protection of our individual rights.
New Britain herald., 1917-09-04

We say we are Americans; that we belong to the United States of Amer ica. We should remember the re- responsibilities which these words carry with them.
 War has come and our government has stepped in and is engaged in the task of organizing our people and our resources to meet the emergency. To our men of fighting age must fall the burden of carrying arms. Each man fitted so to do must do his share. None shall be excused on account of position, family, or wealth; none shall be excused who wish to dodge their duty to their country. Only those shall be excused who are indispen- sable to the task of organizing our resources Or those whose absence from their usual daily tasks would throw too great an economic burden on their dependents.
 Therefore, we have the 'selectlVe draft so-called. It is measure founded on the very principles on which democracy is founded. Those selected under it to carry arms in defense of our country should be re- garded not only by themselves but by all others, as men chosen for the highest duty to which a citizen can be called.'

USEUM WEEK
 HERE OCTOBER SIS
Britain Believed to Be Orig
 inatOr Of Movement

That will probably prove, so far
 can be iascertained, the first at-
 pt in any city to have what is to
 known as Museum Week." will b, place at, the Museum of Natural
 Sory and Art of the New Britain @itute October 8 to 13. Curator Schurr has had the ' in mind for some time, and had stned to put the plan into effect fs month, but because of the diffi- ~ of securing materials to use in Barring specimens for new cases, Hhas been compelled to put 1t off The week as chosen in October.
 &he idea of Museum Week. H have it's origin in New Britain, Far as Is known, and it is planned &nnke it an annual event. The ob- AMof instituting such a week is to on display at the museum vari- recent gifts and new additions at the same time to create fur
 re interest on the part of the gen. l public in natural history and Special efforts will be made to F'e an unusual attendance at the scum during the specified time.
 Fhe Institute Museum opened its
 srs to the public a year ago last
 fe, filling a long felt want in New
 tain, which has not only been
 de manifest by the large number
 people which constantly visit it,
 also by the numerous gifts of a
 sntific and historical nature it has
 ltinuously received. From the day
 its opening it has grown in popu-
 ity and usefulness, and 1t also has ywn to nearly twice its original size skfe number of exhibits. Many per- is who visited the museum at it's ssning have watched 1t grow with Eight Boys and girls as well as Ellts have donated many interesting sngs. It takes small gifts and sge gifts, something from here and Snething from there, to make col ktions complete, and as time goes and more things are added, the alseum will prove of even greater s-vice to scholars and those inter- Eed in natural history, ancient his Ky, art and science.
 t"Museum Week" promises to prove novel and interesting event and 1t XII not only be the means of Stim- |atinS in the arts and sciences, but will afford the people an opportu- ky to observe to what extent their |useum has grown since its opening.

AUTOMOBILE DAY
 IN POLICE COURT
Other Cases Thrown in For Good
 Measure

On a charge of running down and injuring man on East Main street last evening and then driving away and attempting to evade all responsi-
 bility for accident Herman Splettz- toezer of Newington was found gull ty by Judge James T. Meskill in police
 court this morning and fined $50 and
 costs. There were several other auto
 mobile and motorcycle men arraigned
 and all drew fines ranging from s3 to
 $50.
 According to the story related by
 Splettstoezer, Labor Day of 1917 will
 be day long to be remembered by
 him. Yesterday morning one of his
 horses was taken sick on Winthrop
 street and had to be shot. Then fol-
 lowed tho accident and this mornings
 heavy fne. Omcer Gustave IAtke,
 who arrested Splettstoezer last night,
 testified that after filling his gasoline
 tank at Morrin's garage os East Main
 street he proceeded down the street,
 struck George Byke opposite Hart
 ford avenue and continued on his way, the patrolman following in an automobile he had communicated. Arthur Johnson and George Burgess motorcyclists, testified that they fol- lowed Splettztoezer down East Main street and saw Byke lying uncon- scious in the road. Tho crowd shout ed that tho car ahead had struck him 1 and the two motorcyclists started in pursuit At Elm street, witnesses de- clared, the tail light on the Newing- ton mans machine went out and was not turned on again until after Stan l ley street was passed. They caught l up with Splettztoezer at Laurel street l ad advised him of the accident. At l the time he professed ignorance of 1 having struck anybody. Other wit l nesses were positive, however, that it l was Splettztoezer who ran down Bly, ko. The accused had nothing to offer l in his own defense other than pro- fessed ignorance of the accident and l a denial of having turned out the l tail light on his machine to avoid l having his number taken.

American women to-day are winning
the attention of the French Ministry Of
War. They are Mrs. Mary Borden

New York. During the heaviest fight

leave their posts, and even have moved
nearer 20 the front, with their first aid
stations. taking several French nurses
with their units. Mrs. Turner arrived
in Paris to-day. responding to call
from the War Minister, and she leaves

She reorganized the American Red

THE organization of the battalion"
said Miss Fromenko to-day, will be
similar to that of the male hghting
forces. II will have a regular staff, its
own transport and medical service, It's
own signal corps and a machine gun
company with four guns, to the work
ing of which our girls take readily.
Finally there will be an expert scout
ing detachment of twenty-six Cossack
girls. magnificent riders since child
hood, all of whose fathers or husbands
are now at the front. In the battalion
are fifteen girls who already have seen
service in mems units, three OF them
having been wounded. These are in
valuable, as they thoroughly under
stand the drill and camp life.
MANY of our girls have been at the
front as Sisters of Mercy. All the Off
GERS of the battalion, of high rank, will
be men,"
Remarking on the efficiency Of the
recruits, their chief instructor, Captain
Loskoff, said:

diers, but | do not hesitate to declare
that these women learn with double the
speed. This is true not only of the
educated girls, but also of the peasant
girls, some of whom are entirely illit-

the patriotic desire to save Russia from
ruin. Many of them display zeal and
ardor worthy of Joan of Arc

tressing articles published in America
concerning the present situation in
France which did not take into ac-
count the French habit of loving to
Judge and criticise those directing af-
fairs whether they were civilians or
military men.
The morale of the French people
and the French army, he said. was in
no respect enfeebled, as proved by the
brilliant result of the offensive in
Flanders and the vigor of the resist
ance of the French troops upon the
