suR-sTATioA REMOVAL
 TO MEET sTHoNG PROTEST.
General Public Opposed to Govern ment's Plan to Transfer Postoffioe Service from the Boston Store.

It is evident that the Norwich public does not intend to tamely submit to the proposed disopnenuancs July 1st of the postofffce sub station in the Boston store. That this station is too convenient for business purposes to have it given up Is maintained by al. The government allows only one dollar yearly to maintain this sub 7ETta ton, because it is in a department store; the bond required of Frank J. King, representing the Reid & Hughes com pany, is enormous in comparison with this trivial government allowance of S1, and, besides, the company has to pay the two young ladies who are clerks.
 While it is, in a way. an accommo- dation to the Hore's customers, it is manifestly of small financial profit to the company.
 If. as believed, it is the plan of the posta. authorities at Washington to move the sub-station to some central drug store, the government will thes allow $50, making a difference of $49 between department store allowance and that to a drug store-just why, it Is not easy to figure out.
 Many prominent citizens. including Gen. William A. Aiken and others. have already protested against the removal of the station from it's present site, while the Norwich Chamber of Com merce has taken up the matter and Is to bring it to the attention of Con gressman R. P. Freeman of this dis trict. Other individuals and some or- ganizations are preparing to write per sonal and special letters to the con gressman expressing emphatic disap- proval of the proposed charge. This Is a matter which must be done promptly, since the first of July IS the date set for the government order to become effective. Many individuals have protested to Postmaster John F. Murphy against the change, which is not of his making

Y. M. C. A. MEETING.
Stirring and Impressive Address De-
 livered by Geo. H. Strouse.

Rev. George H. Strouse of the First Baptist church delivered a stirring and at the '. NJ. C. A. Building. on the subject Of "Niy Twentieth Hope"
 He based h.7 remarks on the scrip ture. Which hope I have as an an- chor to the soul.''
 He called the attention of the men to the fact that no human being in this world can tell what is coming next in this terrible catastFopay in the nations. that what was needed now is some great prophet, not historian, but a prophet.
 While we believe that Germany Is largely to blame. yet none of the na- tions have anything to brag about: there are splendid Christians in all the nations. but a a whole the nations are not exhalting Jesus Christ to any ex- tent.
 The speaker asked three questions and then proceeded to answer them: the questions were these: Do you need an anchor? Have you an anchor |? Will your anchor hold? Of course we all need an anchor no one will deny this, but the real serious question is will your anchor hold? That depends on whether you have the right kind of an anchor. Let me mention four men who had anchors, but some of them did not hold: Napoleon. the great war riOr, who almost crushed Europe with a tyrant'S heel. was finally exiled to
 
 which he was clinging failed him and he went down in the whirlpool of fail ure.
 Vo1taire, had a great interlect. and he poisoned Europe with his infideli- ty, and the potentates applauded him in those days. but his last words clearly indicate that his so-called an- ohor absolutely failed in the crucial test.
 Ciibhon. the great man who wrote "The rise and fall of the Roman Elm pire. said when his life was ebbing away the future seems dark"
 Paul, the wonderful man of the first century, was buffetted, and hindered in many ways, but he weathered the stormy voyage of life. and because his anchor held so gloriously he ex- claimed, T know whom I have be- lieved, ard am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have com mitted unto Him, against that day"
 Paul. though he had more storms than either of the others during his eventfuI life. yet his anchor held fast while the others failed, and all be- cause his anchor was Jesus Christ.
 Hugh Kinder officiated at the. piano, and slso rendered two solos, Tell Me the Story of Jesus and Softly and Tenderly Jesus is Calling" both of which were greatly enjoyed.
 Secretary Hill had charge of the ser vice and President Case offered the prayer.

As the wisdom of knitting scarfs, sweaters and wristlets for the men in our navy is sometimes questioned, the following letter from the Philadelphia Branch of the Woman's Section of the Navy League of the United Sta.es will be of interest.
 We are so anxious to have all these articles mentioned in our instruction sheets sent to us. The requests come to us every day for supplies for vari- ous boats, and at times we have nothing left on our shelves. Please do interest just as many as you can to do some knitting. If these people could see the many letter which We have received from the crews thank ing us for these helpful garments, am sure they would be glad to help us with this noble work for the men in the Service. We do not want one article more than another"
