OLD LYME PREPARING FOR THE FOURTH.
Second Regiment Expected to Be in
 Camp by That Date.

Social events this year in Old Lyme have no standing unless they are founded on a war basis and many and varied are the activities started this spring to aid in the great cause. With the coming of the summer people these patriotic efforts are given new impetus. When Mrs. Allan B. Talcott of Hartford arrived she organized the Red Cross workers. A building was secured which is open every day, morning and afternoon. in charge of regularly appointed workers where the work of making the Red Cross sup plies goes on without interruption.
 Just now the big event of the hour is the parade to be held on the Fourth. As many other successful things have begun, this affair also originated with Rev. K. B. Gelles. The parade is just one feature of the day. athletic games, patriotic speeches and cfher tradi- tional features of the national holiday will all he on the program
 First in the order of march in the parade will be the Spirit of '76:" next prOba bly, will be the entire Second regiment of the Connecticut National guard, which is expected to be in camp at Saybrook at that time; the old Lyme Home guard will follow, appear ing for. the first time before the pub lie eye in it's new uniforms.

WOMEN MAY WIN WAR
 AS WELL AS MEN CAN
Duty of Ending Waste and Exercising Economy in the Household Set Forth by Rev. Peter J. Cuny, at St. Pat rck's Church.

The last high mass until Septem Der was sung in St. PatricIl's church Sunday by Rev Myles P. Calvin. Dur ing the summer the third service of Sunday will be a low mass. and there will be no music. Afternoon vespers will be suspended also.
 Yesterday, the regular choir sang, under direction of Organist F. L. Far rell. the solo portions of the service being well interpreted by Mrs. Far rell and John Sullivan. Following the mass, Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament was given by Rev Peter J. Cuny.
 Father Cunv preached also, his theme being the spiritual phase of the food conservation which President Wilson has recommended to the na- ton, in order that America may help win the war. This topic, he said, is no new one in the Catholic church. which for centuries has legislated u1 the matter of self-restraint as regards eating and drinking. It has been the fashion of the minimizing world to ridicule the abstinence from meat en- joined by the church on Friday; but now mankind is coming back to this sage practice, and "meatless days" are observed in the nations
 So, too, the custom of abstinence, of regulating the quantity of food dur ing Lent to one full meal, breakfast and supper being light collations, is also being copied throughout the
 
 but because dietists will declare that one full meal daily is the hygienic rule for man.
 The church. has ever held that man was to eat to live: but from earliest centuries she has advocated restric- tion of appetite. as the certain means of restraining passions. What she has ruled has been strictly in accord with reason.
 Statistics were quoted to show the ethical obligation of American women, in particular to end waste in the household and exercise frugality. The waste of so much as a single slice of bread daily means the waste of mil lions of loaves in this great, prodigal, careless nation.
 As President Wilson has implied. women well men can help win the war through increasing the food supply for the allied nations, by dO- ing their part in these respects. Thus the evil which men have brought upon themselves by war may, in Gods way of brinying good out of evil, result in lessons of lasting value to a wasteful nation. While women can in this man ner serve their country, it is the part of man not to be fussy about his meals, but to cooperate by agreeing 70 simple modes of living; in this way each will help toward the greatly to be desired end.
