Norwich League Members Pray fol
 Mexico.

Norwich members of the world wide organization known as The Apostle ship of Prayer have devoted them selves during September to prayers for the afflicted church in Mexico, according to the following 1eafiet, sent out from the league headquarters, S01 West 1S1st street, New York:
 Persecution of the Church in Mexi- co began with the suppression of the Society of Jesus in 1773. The most successful of missions were left with out priests, and religious and educa- tional work fell into ruins. The In dians, without pastors and teachers soon relapsed into barbarism. After the revolt of Hidalgo there were con- stant attempts against the liberty of the church. and during the presiden- cies of Loredo and Benito Juarez those attempts brought untold suffering up- on Cathdiics. Under General Diaz conditions improved and unjust laws were not enforced. though still on the statute books. while the beginning of

Madero's presidency seemed to mark a spirit of conciliation
 With Carranza began a story of out
 rSges unsurpassed for barbarity. F'a-
 vored by the American government,
 and while seventeen million Catholic American citizens remained strangely indifferent, this man rose to power and started his brutal persecution of the church in Mexico. The record of his revolution is one of murders, loot ings, criminal outrages against holy women, sacrileges. and even death for Gods priests attempting to administer the sacraments to the dying. It has eliminated in the infamous constitu- ton of Queretaro which has taken from the church every vestige of free dom. While all this has been going on, the vilest lies have been circulated in the United States against the Mex ican Catholics, and their bishops and priests In order to blind us to the true state of affairs. The Catholics in Mexico are indeed in need of our pray CTS. Our Ignorance. of their affairs has helped to increase their suffer fngs.

POTATO THEFT|AIL
Michael Coleman Given 60 Days for
 PiIferinq From Garden.

In the city court Monday morning Michael Coleman was sentenced to serve 60 days in jail for having dug potatoes from the garden of Herbert Morse. not far distant from the Little Dam tavern. Coleman's capture was due to the alertness of Edwin Adams and Daniel Sullivan. Coleman was seen coming along the highway about 10.30 Saturday night and he was ac- costed and eventually turned over to an officer. He later stated that he had taken the potatoes because he could not afford to buy any Coleman is over 60. He had been under sus- picion for some time and a watch had been kept on him.
 His arrest and punishment is the first case of the kind that has deveI- cped in this county, action being taken under the war measure that provides heavy punishment for such acts as Coleman was convicted.

! they will be allowed to write home after arrival"
 The report to the council says: Life, insurance in force prior to a certain date covers war service with
 out permit or additional premium. American life insurance companies,
 during the month of April gave notice as to new insurances that the insured must within 60 days after leaving the
 United States for mi-4-ry service in
 territory foreign to the United States notify the company and pay such ex- tra premiums as the company may determine. It would seem that pru- dence would dictate that any man in
 the service and expecting to leave the United States would better pay the additional premium at once, but in the case of soldiers for whom the addi- tional premium is paid by their eM- ployers it would seem that the only feasible way in view of the secrecy surrounding troop movements would be for the employer to so instruct the individuals concerned that they will notify the employer of their transfe" to foreign territory soon possible after reaching such foreign territory, in which case the premiums might readily be paid within the time limit.

TWO YEAR COURSE
 AT sToRRs COLLEGE
Designed to Furnish Practical InstFue- ton on Principles of Agriculture.

Although not so widely known as the four year college course, a two year course for the practical instruc- ton of men not having had high school training is maintained at the Connecticut Horticultural College. This two year course is designed to fur nish practical instruction to men who are desirous of learning the princi- ples of agriculture and at the same time such fundamental science as they have time for.
 Although a separate institution, the two-year men have the use of the same buildings and equipment as haVs the four year men. Their courses of study, however, are entirely different ard especially adapted for their needs.
 Upon completing the course at Storrs they receive a certificate show ing their graduation from the school oe agriculture.
 While. this course is not designed to replace in any way the regular four year college course of study 1t gives the young man an opportunity to go direct from the common school into his chosen field for special study.

SOLDIERS ABROAD SHOULD
 NOTIFY INSURANCE COMPANIES
Action Necessary to Prevent Fossil
 biIity of Insurance Lapsing.

Connecticut men in the military ser
 vice of their country who have life in-
 surance policies are advised by the
 Connecticut state council of defens3
 in a statement made public to see tO
 it that the fact that they have gone
 abroad is reported within 60 days afte-
 their departure to the companies by
 which their insurance is issued. This action is necessary, the council has learned, to prevent any possibility of the insurance lapSing, whether it be an individual policy or insurance un- der the group plan.
 The question was raised by a large Connecticut concern. which insures it's employees under the group insurance plan. This company wrote to the council of. defense: Tt is very neces- sery that through some means we should obtain information within 60 the United States of the single fact that the individual has departed where or under what circumstances or when it is unnecessary1bu we are on our insurance policies until we re- ceive information that the man has left the United States" The company also said that there are thousands of employers in the United States who are in the same position, and millions of insurance for troops in dependent Upon the receipt promptly of that in- formation"
 The matter has been investigated for the council by one of it's members familiar with the life insurance busi- ness, who has reported that the only feasible way which appears for secur- ing information within 60 days of the departure of men from the United States in order that additional pre- upon their lives may be paid is for the men themselves to report as soon as permitted after arriving abroad.
 serhe war dena rtn,ent" his renort explained, certainly will not give mo- tice of their sailing and probably will rot permit the men to give notice upon the eve of departure. Presumably.
