is no doubt as to the decision that will be reached.
 The committee in charge of the dance and social at St, Paul.a .r,.h nall on Saturday night have haen hard at work making arransem ents for the decorations and musical entartain- ment. All that take part in the na- rade as well as visitors are invited 10 take part in the evenings celebra- tion.
 Chance for Model Gardens.
 Now that the thoughts of the peo- pie are turned toward home gardens It mas been suggested that tho men in charge of the state fair, which is held at the Berlin fair grounds each fall. should take a section of the grounds and turn them over into gar dens. As the fair Is a state event. several acres of model gardens would be one of the main attractions in the fall. and 1t is felt that the, officers would not be taking the wrong step in following out the suggestion. There is plenty of land within the fair tgrounds which could very well be used for. this purpose and, with an instructor in charge at the fair itself, any that so wished could gather in . fund of information for their next years planting. It would hardly be amiss if the state college at Storrs should take a hand in the planting and thus show just what is being ac- complished at that institution in re- gard to the garden proposition.
 Land Transfer.
 The Middletown Trust company, trustee of the estate of Henry W. Bulkeley. late of Cromwell has trans- ferred land and buildings in Berlin to Robert Cole, bounded as follows: On the north by land of Luke Turn CT; east, land of R. o. Clark; south, by the highway, and west by the land of R. Q. Clark.
 Berlin Briefs.
 Several cases of smallpox have had the quarantine released during the past two days.
 This evening at St.. Gabriers church in Hast Berlin there will be connrma- ton services at o'clock. Bishop Acheson of Middletown will confirm the class. Choir rehearsal will also be held tonight.
 Rev. and Mrs. Dodge of the East Berlin Methodist Episcopal church were rendered a reception in the par sonage last evening by members of the congregation.
 Any person wishing to become a member of the East Berlin Lawn Ten- his club should make application to Victor Benson or Milton Gaines. The Holy Name society and St. Pauls T. A. B. society will meet at the parish hall at 1:30 o'clock Satur- day.

AUSTRIAN PAPERS BITTER TOWARD U. s.
Penheld Back, Tells of Offensive
 Cartoons and Reading Matter

New York; May 17.-Frederic c. Penheld United States Ambassador to Austria, who has been recalled to Washington, arrived yesterday at an American port. Passengers on the ship which brought him. confirmed reports that the French liner Roch- ambeau was attacked by German submarine on her last eastward voy- ase and narrowly escaped being struck by a torpedo. <
 MT. Penfield is on his way to Wash ington. He is accompanied by his wife. In an interview. he said the ship on which he came was escorted acrosssthe Bay of Biscay to the Atlantic by fast French destroyer as a. compliment to the American government.
 "I was very glad, for the sake of all on board that our ship was under es- cort through tho danger zohe," Mir. Penfield continued. because the cap- tain told me later that the Bay of Bis- cay was bristling with submarines on every side. Seven steamships he said, were sunk on day we crossed it on our way to the United States"
 Of conditions in Austria at the time of his departure MT. Penfleld said:
 T have plenty of information on that subject, but there are only two persons in the United States to whom I can relate 1t.
 Diplomats of tho old style used to go abroad and sit on rod velvet cush- ions and devote their time to attending social functions. After I went to Vienna four years ago I spent one year in putting America on the map and the other three years in a con- tinuous struggle to keep it there.
 Tn the last two years not one word has been printed in the Austrian newspapers favorable to the United States. You know that tho papers are supposed to be censored, and whom articles and cartoons appeared in them reflecting on President Wilson took the papers to tho Foreign Min- ister and asked if he had seen them. The reply was that in a general way the government c = sored the articles in tho newspapers, and that these must have slipped in without the knowledge of the official censor. Then for a week afterward the editorial page, where the offending articles. appeared. would be blank on account Of the strict cen- sorship exercised by the government.

 Celebration Preparations.
 Preparations for the celebration in connection with the flag raising in Kensington on Saturday afternoon are going along in fine shape and all plans are expected to be completed at the various society meetings this evening.

The Brotherhood is in favor of the flag raising and wish to support the Sons of Veterans in every way possl- ble at the coming celebration. Tonight the Sons of Veterans asso- , citation will meet at the home of !: Harry Hodge, Pine street, New Brit ain and the final plans for the cele- i bration will be made. The line of : march will be decided and also the positions of the various organizations that are to take part. Just what hours the stores will close has not been decided upon but a decision in , this matter will also be reached at , the meeting. Other societies that 1 will meet this evening to make final ] arrangements for the celebration are 1 the Foresters and the local unit of 1 the Home Guard. This is the first i meeting of the Guard since a week ago last Monday. and the members 1 have yet to take a vote on the ques- tion of turning out.
