WAR FUND TAKES BIC JUMP
Total Amount Raised Up Friday Night Was $179995O, Including $1325 Reported From Danielson- Hundred Dollar Pledge Received From Montville- Much Hard Work Yet be Done Before Goal is Reach ed.

The '. M. c. A. thermometer on Franklin square will move up to S17- ees.5o this (Saturday) morning as this was the total reported Friday night in the war fund campaign. This amount includes S1,325 reported Friday night from Danielson. Never has there been a campaign in Norwich when greater enthusiasm has been manifested than is noted in the present drive for the Y M. c. A. war work fund.-
 The interest has been growing every passing day and Friday evening en- thuSiasm was seen in every face: sev- eraI of the out of town workers were present, and they were heartily well comed.
 Oliver L. Johnson and William P. Young represented the Y. M. c. A. trustees. and Col Charles W. Gale. James L. Case and Leonard O. Smith represented the advisory committee.
 Promptly at 6.30 o'clock the men as- sernbl cd in the large hall and to pi- ano music sang the new prayer song just written, entitled Our Boys, Orr Men" set to the tune of America" after which Rev. J. H. Newland ask ed the blessing.
 The supper was delicious and was served by the ladies of the Second Congregational church. Just as the men finished eating Judge John IT. Barnes arose and after a very appro- priate speech. in which he stated that 2 certain gentleman in the room seem ed to have difficulty in getting enough to eat, presented Col. Gale. the chair man with a pretty cake decorated with a. soldier lad and a war work flag: this event brought down the house and Col. Gale responded with a big, broad smile.
 Methodist Pastor Speaks.
 Rev. J. H. Newland was introduced to the audience by James L. Case, and his brief address was one of the best of the week: he spoke Of the loneliness of .::e so!iser boys and stated that the only organization under heaven that could break this loneliness was the Y NJ. c. A. and he urged the workers to give to the last ounce of strength and the people to give to the utmost that this greatly needed work might be royalty sustained.
 Mir Case then called on Mayor Allyr T.. Brown, the campaign director, who asked the generals for their reports for Friday. The results of the days work was as follows:

MISS LOUISE HOWE
 HOME ECONOMIC CHAIRMAN
Chosen at. Organization Meeting in
 Farm Bureau Rooms.

On Thursday afternoon a meeting was called in the rooms of the New London County Farm Bureau for the purpose of forming a Home Economics committee as department of the Farm Bureau.
 Miss Louise Howe being director for Norwich was appointed chairman and the foilowin~ women comprise the committee: Mrs. Edward T. Ora ham. Mrs. Edrrnd Perkins. Mrs. Harry T1 Higgins. Mrs. John McWillia ms, Miss Elizabeth Huntington and Mrs. Daniel s. Haviland.
 Perhans it would he well to define just here what the position of the Farm BHreau is as it affects home economies.
 Tho Farm Bureau is the federal in sstitution in the country for conduct ing educat'S7a1 work along agricultur- al and home economic lines. It is .co- operative extension work. much of which is carried on by demonstration. work in the way Of food produc- ton and conservation is being done through the Farm Bureau.
 It bears much the same relationship to government work as the Red Cross and Y NJ C. E does For as the Red Cross is attending to the work of sur eical and hosnital supplies for the government and the 7. M. C. A. apply ire itself to the care Of the young men of tha armies, so the Fam Bureau,
 
 nent is giving the instruction and aid- ing in the movement of production and conservation of food suDplies
 As the local organization. the F'arrr Bureau employs the agricultural and home economics workers whose work IS directed by a board of directors made 1Ip of one man and one woman in each town and city in the county with a few members at large num- bering about 45 in New London corn- ty. The executive committee is tho central administrative body of seven members, including the officers The aerfcu1tura1 and home economics pol icies and efforts are in the hands of two committees of five members each.
 The members and public at large re- Ceive the services of the Farm Bi- reau staff through the town commit tees composed of as many members as the town needs, made up of chair man and representative won,e, and it is this committee. of which Miss Towe is chairman. that was formed on Thursday. The chairman Of the agri- cultural committee is Mrs. c. T. Sr,1it',
 At the annual meeting to he held in December in the city hall of Norwich the appointment of these chairmen is, confirmed.
 This meeting will be of especial in tere< as the subject What Can Do in My Town This Year." will be spok- en on by Miss M F. Sprague head of the Home, Economies department at Connecticut Horticultural college
 The county Home Economics boarI have adopted for the major project for the winter. food conservation and substitution. For a minor project the conservation of clothing and of health will be taken up.

NO REASON FOR IT
When Norwich Citizens Show a Way.

There can be no reason why any reader of this who suffers the tor lures of an aching back, the annoy ance of bladder disorders, the pains and dangers of kidney ills will fail to heed the words of a neighbor who has found relief. Read what this Nor wich woman says:
 Mrs. c. E. Fowler, 5s1 E. Main St., says: "I am very seldom without Deans Kidney Pills in the house and l buy them at the Lee & Osgood Co I have had attacks of backache which have come on from a cold Some times overwork has brought on those dull pains across my kidneys. haven't used Doan's Kidney Pills con- tinually but just when my back has ached and felt weak and then I have never failed to get relief. I recom- mend Doan's highly because of my ex- perience with them"
 Price COG, at all dealers Don't simply ask for q kidney remedy-get Deans Kidney Pills-the same that Mrs. Fowler uses. Foster Milburn Co-, Mfgrs, Buffalo, N. Y.

The special session will include the usual ceremonits of inauguratlng the vice president which compose about one-half the formaiities of the day.
 It seems to have been decided that President Wilson will take an oath of of flee privately in the White House Sun day, March {. but 1t has not been an nounced. whether he will take it again at the public ceremony March 5.
 It has been suggested that the Pres ident make the public ceremony merely the occasion for delivering his inaugural address.

People Told Situation Due to U-Boat Menace Very Serious and Drastic Meth Ods Are Necessary
FOOD SUPPLY IS LOWER THAN EVEN IN PAST
Farm Laborers Are to Be Speeded Up and All Luxuries Are to Be Pro hibited

London, February 23. David Lloyd George, the British prime minister, to- day presented to the House of Commons in a speech last ing an hour and a half his programme for coping with the problem of shortage of shipping space.
 The speech was a serious and grave arraignn1ent, the premier giving his audience little opportunity for en- thusiasm and endeavoring to concentrate attention on the serious situation with which the nation is faced, owing. to the shortage of food stocks, and the German submarine menace.
 The premier's programme for deal ing with the situation in some way
The Birmingham age-herald., 1917-02-24

Department of justice agents re- sumed with new energy their investi- gation of prices to determine if there was an actual shortage of foodstuffs at large cities where rioting has re- gently occurred. Attorney General Gregory announced that measures which may be of considerable avaiP' toward bettering the situation prob ably would be announced shortly.
 The interstate commerce commission, through it's field force of investigators and officials here, keeping close watch on the railroads efforts to unravel the tan gle of cars at congested points, announced the transportation west of many trains or empties, chiefly for relief at Chicago, and was reported to be satisfied that the gigantic task of restoring conditions to normal was progressing satisfactorily and as speedily as might be expected.
 The car service commission of the American Railways association dis all responsibility whatever on behalf of the railroads for contributing to the rise through failure to furnish trans portation facilities and announced that at nc time had any complaint been re- ceived which would indicate that there was a shortage of food anywhere in the
