 No Enthusiasm for Home Guard
 There doesn't seem to be much in terest in forming a Home Guard com pany in Danieison. up to the present about sufficient to fill Q corporal's guard. Why there is such a lack of interest is not apparent. but much of that seems to hover over @ ali plans % for the organization Of the United States armed land forces.
 The fact that Danielson has biz company of the national guard may have something to do with the lack of interest in home guard development, but rnany towns and cities of the state that have national guard companies also have Home Guard 'compan.es and some cities have several Home Guard companies.

 Taking Out Naturalization Papers.
 War may be taken as the omnibus circumstance that is bringing many of the subjects of the Central empires into the office of Judge Edgar NJ. War ner, clerk of the superior court, for the purpose of taking out naturaliza- ton papers. During the past few days 20 applications have been received and all but two of these were from per- citizenship papers. A majority of the men who applied are subjects of the Austrian emperor On Saturday Of this week others are expected to ap- pear and formally make their apph- cation for citizenship, for on that day special time will be devoted to this . work at the county clerks office. Father Suspicion Formerly at St.
 Mary's.
 The death of New Canaan of Rev. John H. Suspicion, 42, was sad news for many members of St. Mary's par lsh, in which Father Stapleton was an assistant for time.
 Father Stapleton was ordained to the priesthood in Paris in 1899 by the late Cardinal Richard.
 During his stay in this city he en- deared himself to the members of his congregation and it was with the deepest regret that they heard of his call to go elsewhere. He also made great many friends among the poo pie of this city who were not mem bers of St. Mary's church and to these, too, the announcement of his death brings sorrow.

 Mobilization for crop growing is the subject that is getting serious atten- ton from many prominent cftfzcns of Putnam. Planting time is almost at son is really here. With the country at war. a fact that doesn't seem to be sensed by the public at large, and the at a dangerously low ebb, 1t has come home to many of Putnarn's people that something must be done at once to interest the public here in planting, in accordance with the presidents iatest what is being done throughout the country.
 In an informal way, the matter of arousing the people here to go in for gardening, was discussed at Monday afternoons meeting of the trustees of the Putnam Savings bank. but no de- finite action was taken.
 President Chester E. Child Is one of those who is very anxious to see some organized movement started Co spur on crop growing interests here. One of the suggestions made by John C. John son was that school boys be urged to give an hour a day to agricultural work with a half day of work on Sat- urdays. If the school boys of the city could. be mobiiized. it is felt that they could contribute wonderfully in aiding experienced crop growers in the work to be done, and, of course, could in most cases get compensation for their work, which would be as truly patrio- taic for them as enlistment is for their older brothers.
 This week may bring developments that wilP result in definite program being laid out, for various interests will combine to get concerted action.

 Mother of Jesus, Whatsoever He saith unto you. do it. I am glad for this account of the wedding feast for sew eral reasons he said. Jesus ministry was different from that of John. Je- sus came to santify the common events Of life. He was more often found at Joyous occasions than was John. This was Jesus first miracle. Just as sud- denly as He told the servants what to
 do, so He speaks to us through His
 word, through the Holy Spirit. The world gives of it's best first, in the end is disappointment The Lord gives us good all the way throush and at the end comes the best of. all. In 50 many ways we can obey this com
 nand, we can hear God speaking to us in the resurrection of the spring. Let us love Him more and watch for chances to do kind deeds. May we all be as ebedient as those servants were then shall we have the wine of glad ness and joy
 : Much enjoyed was the singing by a choir of twelve members Miss Bes- sic Riddle was at the piano. There were solos. ,Tis So Sweet to Trust in Jesus Is He Yours? and The Lord Is Ny Shepherd. Among the hymns were Blessed Assurance. There Is Glory in fhe Blessed Home. and Love to Walk With Jesus
