ELECTRIC SUPPLY OF
 LOCAL PLANT cURTAuED
New England Transmission Go. Re- fuses to Supply Power Between s.3o
 p. m. and a. m.

The New England Transmission company, which has an agreement to furnish the local plant with pgwer, has teen forced to curtail the supply fur nished the city of Norwich each day between the hours of 9.30 p. m. and ,. m. until further notice.
 The New England Transmission company has high tension line run ming from Middietowns to Providence and has been in the habit of supply ing the cities and towns within s9- mile radius of that place with light. But owing to the shortage of steam coal it was necessary. to curtail the amount allowed to the cities. Six of the largest cities on the line faave been cut off about 2,oo0 k. w. per day,
 It was for this reason that the naef- chants of Norwich were requested to use as little ligh. in their places of business as possible.

THE NEW THRIFT STAMPS

4 new order just issued by the postmaster general makes it pos sible to buy thrift stamps with the small penny savings usually horded away by children so that in five years time SAP will bring $500 In return.
 Almost every child has a small smoun' Of money put away in the different banks with which children are 50 familiar, penny banks, dine banks, etc. This money is lying idl snd government experts estimate there are millions of dollars so stored away. The purpose of the new thrift stamp is to enable child whenever he has accumulated 25 cents to purchase g stamp. When he has sixteen of them, plus 12 cents, he can get a certificate, which he may keep in place of the money. The child is just as much pleased, the government is aided, and when the child gets old enough 10 use the money he will have 1t returned to him with more.

WomaA's lot is a weary one at best. But with backache and other distressing kidney ills life indeed becomes a burden. Doan's Kidney Pills have made life brighter for many women. Read what Mrs Roll Cookston, of 1909 E. First Ave, Spokane, Wash, says; "The grip put my kidneys out of order and I suffered with heavy dull pain in the small of my back which kept getting more severe. Some days l could hardly do my work for it was almost impossible to bend over. My kidneys were weak and annoyed ne a great deal, too. was worried because my feet swelled and because of the puffiness under my eyes. One box of Doan's Kidney Pills gave me relief and after l had used two boxes I was feeling fine tn every way" Statement given October 16, 191B.)

SKAGWAY RED
 CROSS NOTES

MT. A Reinert announces that he will give to the Red Cross ten per cent of cash sales at his store on Tuesday. December 11th.
 Two boxes of supplies were ship ped today to the Northwestern Dt- vision headquarters at Seattle, Wash. The large box contained 5O22 eauze surgical dressings and the small one 70 pieces knit goods. The accomplishment of this work has been made possible through the un- tirins efforts and enthusiasm of the Military Relief Committee. This committee is often referred to as th Work" committee which all agree is appropriate. Serving on this committee are: Mrs. Helen Lynch, Mrs. Martin Conway, Mrs. H, c. Scott. Ms. E. J. Shaw, Mrs. E. A. Rasmuson, Mrs. J. W. Shearer and MS. H. J. DdAeE
 The making of 5022 dressings means Q lot of work-every piece of gauge is first cut by a drawn U -ead, then must be folded accord ing to special instructions-it must Oe folded just so. Each is demand ed in an -pecial way by surgeons each fills its little part in restor- ing the wounded soldier to his home and friends.
 Alter being made the dressings were carefully examined by one of the committee and wrapped two doz en in Q package in a cover Of cot ton clotD or clean old undamaged cotton or line, securely tied and marked with printed stickers donat- ed by the Daily Alaskan. The gauge used cost $S6.O0.
 Splendid work has been done by the knitters. The value of the yarn III lOudS $ SuIpmcul lS SVO'VV- ~ lid not cost the Red Cross that much, however, since some of the
 meuts were donated outright. Comfort such as is brought by hand knitted garments has saved hun dreds of men from nervous break down. Comfort means much to the soldier-It lifts him out of the slough O despond and makes him look upon the future with confi- dence.

This country has been sitting on . powder keg and gOOd-naturedly TsseRtisg any suggestion that it could blow up.
 We have permitted our enemy aliens to go and come with little or 10 hindrance It was certain that they would kill Americans and destroy American property at the precise point where killing and de- Structi n would most hamper Ameri cans the firing line. The Balti- more fire appears to be another item in their long and ghastly Sount. They have destroyed shells and food. They have by just so much risked the lives and Gafety Oi our men In France.
 The Tribune has, day by day, for weeks, set forth the nature, the extent the location of this men see. There have been thirty-two suspicious fires along theB rock lyn waterfront since our entry in 10 the war. That is one item ina long catalogue. Only 0 nation gro tesquely unsuspicious and blind to ths facts of var could ignore the warnings which have come from every quarter.
 The measures which the authori- ties have taken would be a joke if they did not threaten a tragedy. The registration of enemy aliens be- gun la this city was never complet- cd. If completed, it would be a Esrce ?. attempt to control our S0,0OO resident Germans by any po- lice measures. When MT. Hoover learned Of the grave threat against our food stores, all that the To- cal authorities could do was to is sue sR order prohibiting enemy aliens from working on or visiting the waterfront of our city.
