Comforts for old Lyme boys in ser vice. Waterford gent in a splendid re-
 l port, the unusual features being q committee Of women who ok box the boys at Fort Wright, and that one family bought 30 worth of yarn and made 1t into sets, another family col lected clothes regularly to send to France. The other small towns in the county have been organized so recently that I was unable to get definite report from them but I knew they have been doing the same sort of good work.
 1 : New London and Norwich being the two largest centers of the county I shall speak of them at a little more length New London has the greatest
 l problem of any part, as she is sea port town and has at present a large floating population of officers and en- listed men. A large room in the court house has been given over to the men and has been comfortably furnished and provided with pool and billiard tables writing desks. etc. This is call e the Military and Naval Room and is looked after by a citizens committee Of men and women. The latter look after the entertainments and provide so- cial evening every other Saturday night. A great t>effort is being made to invite the men to private homes for meals and evening meetings. This lat ter form of entertainment is done in
 
 the Home Service League. Many of the boys have enjoyed & home evening in this way for the first time in five or six months. In connection with the work of .eIevating and safeguarding the morale of the men. work is being done among the girls through the Patriotic League, and the. highest ideal, of .wo- manhood is being held up to them. A large mass meeting was held in No- vember for this purpose. which was, most gratifying.
 The regular Red Cross work and knitting is also under way continually and three French war orphons have been adopted In response to the gov ernment'ss petition to have all coast hospitals in readiness, there was a campaign to enlarge and better equip the Memorial hospital besides New London, the towns of Lyme, Old Lyme and Waterford assisted mater, ial1y in, this work and. raised < large sums of money. -ti. 7 The principal channels through which women have been doing war work in Norwich are the Red Cross, The Council of Defense, The League

for Women's Service and the Home Economies Committee of the Farm Bu- reau. The Red Cross and Service League are particularly active branch es and could not begin to numerate all they have done. The Service League has well organized Canteen Division which has done excellent work. Practically all of the work for the enlisted men has been undertaken by the League. They have assisted the Red Cross by taking charge of the knitting department; at the suggeS- ton of the Council of Defense they sent the Travellers Aid Society. The Council of Defense assisted in the drive for the 2d Liberty Loan and LISA women responded with -snbScr1p- tions of $264,so0. They also helped with the Hoover Pledge and in orgaE- izing the surrounding towns. in com mercial economy work, etc. The Home Gardens and Community Canning were supported by the women and in, all 2543 jars were put up. At the end of the season, 472 jars of jelly. were dis tributed to the local hospitals and the cash balance of $269-59 was givei to the city mission, the United Work CTS and the Catholic Woman's club to provide food for the needy poor.
 Norwich is proud to have the very able Miss Susan D. Huntington work ing for the state as woman chairman of Educational propaganda.
 The church societies have taken a great deal of war knitting and have helped in filling comfort bags. The town is very efficiently organized and spirit of hearty cooperation exists between all branches of activity.
 In conclusion, may I add that with out our efficient and devoted chairman. Miss Katherine Luddington, much of this work could not have been done. Her spirit of devotion and incentive to all whoh have worked with her and her zeal has never faltered.

During her stay at col lege Miss Adams. was the guest of the Service League. Students who were interested in hearing Miss Adams point of view were given the oppor- tunity of conferences with her, which proved interesting and valuable.
