 The route of the planes in getting into this section will be from Hart ford to Putnam. following the tracks of the Midland division and then, turn ing south. following the Norwich line tracks to Alexander's lake. The land ing field will be suitably marked for the aviators.
 While at the lake the aviators will give demonstration of stunt flying. and will do nose dives, loops and
 many other sensational tricks in aero batic flying.
 It has been especially requested that all who go to the flying field to see the exhibition keep off the space re- served for landing, this both in the in terest of the aviators, who must not be unnecessarily endangered and for the special protection of the spectators.
 The aviators are coming here as an aid in booming the Liberty loan.

 Agents of the state dairy commis sioner watched Berger, and it was found that while en route to the rail- road station with the milk that he carried from farms his wife would come out and meet his team by the roadside and dip out quantities of the contents of each can, taking the haul away. Complaints had been received e, shipping the milk that it was not
 proving up to standard and this led tc
 an investigation.

day, arriving here about noon.
 They come to boom the Liberty loan and what they are scheduled to do in the way of fancy flying stunts is expected to impress many who have not bought bonds of the current issue to do so, that their money may go toward buying more planes and tringing thereby closer to hand the final finish of the kaiser and those who serve him.
 The fliers are from Mineola, where hundreds of aviators now fighting in France have trained The men who are bringing the machines to Dan ielson are expert aeronauts and dur ing their visit here will do all sorts of fancy flying stunts. looping the loop, nose diving. spiral dives, glid- ing and many other favorite tricks of the daring birdmen.
 Their landing field will be in the big field near Philips grove on the north shore of Alexanders lake, and it will be over this field that the stunt flying will be done. All who go there to see them are requested not to go on the landing field before the aviators descend, this request to be needed in all circumstances. There will be ample opportunity after the planes land to inspect them at close range and under safe condi- tions.
 Leaving here the planes will fly south. following the course of the Quinebaug river to Norwich and then that of the Thames into New London. A rifle team of the Ninth Separate company.

COLUMBIA

For some time the Columbia Bury ing Ground association has desired to improve the roadway leading from the highway to it's cemetery. A resolu ton that the improvement be made when the necessary funds were in hand was passed some time ago. The opportunity to make the improvement did not present itself until this sum- mer, when Mrs. William H. Yeomans, whose residence is near the cemetery, became interested. With the advice and consent of the finance committee, Allison L. FTink was engaged to do the work Two stone walls between the cemetery property and Mrs. Yeo mans land were taken down, put into the roadway and covered with earth and gravel making one of the best roads in town. Two piers at the en- trance from the roadway to the ceme- tery have been constructed, hollows filled up, the trees trimmed and the bushes removed. In the past this road has been quite muddy in the spring, when most of the burials are made, but now it is a solid stone road from the highway to the cemetery The townspeople are indebted to Mrs. Yeo- mans for her unaided efforts in se- curing the necessary funds, also to MT Brink for his interest and energy in prosecuting the work to a successful termination. None of the persons to whom Mrs. Yeomans appealed for as sistance are at present residents of this town, but they either have been in the past or are owners of cemetery plots which are benefited by the inn provement. Mrs Yeomans mentions that Mitchell S. Little of Hartford and Walter W. Sawyer of Portland, Ore, were especially liberal in their dona- tions for the improvement, which has cost about $400. Some years ago the cemetery was enlarged and the inn provement to the avenue leading to it completes the contemplated better ments to an already beautiful resting place of the dead.

BETTER THAN CALOME[
Thousands Have Discovered Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets are
 aHarmless Substitute.

7 Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets s-the substi. tute for calomel = are mild but sure laxative, and their effect on the liver is almost instantaneous. They are the result of Dr. Edwards determination not to treat liver and bowel complaints with calomel. His efforts to banish it brought out these little olive-colored tablets.
 These pleasant little tablets do the good that calomel does, but have no bad after effects. They don't injure the teeth like strong liquids or calomel. They take hold of the trouble and quickly correct it. Why cure the liver at the expense of the teeth? Calomel sometimes plays havoc with the gums. So do strong liquids. It is best not to take calomel, but to let Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets take it's place.
 Most headaches, 'idp}lnesss and that lazy feeling come from constipation and a disordered liver. Take Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets when you feel 'Ioggy'' and "heavy." Note how they clear clouded brain and how they "perk up'' the spirits. 10c and 25c box. All druggists

 Only one death was reported on Thursday Tn the town of Killfngly that of Mrs. Henriette Ouilette, 70. ol Ballouville. The number of new eases of illness was reported as less than on any day since the inflnenza cpl demic began to make itself manifest and the signs were strengthened that normal conditions are fast being re- stored.
 Complaints are heard that the Sat urday afternoon and evening trolley service, under the curtails1 schedule now in force between Danielson and Wauregan and Central Village is not sufficient. Points in PIainfield fur nish much trade to Danielson, this trade built up by persistent advertis- ing on the part of local business men and the curtailment of it through in sufficient trolley service is an injury to merchants here. One of the worst faults in the present schedule is that there is no $40 southbound car out of Danielson for the places mention ed. This means that shoppers, es- pSCld1ly women, InuSL walt lrOn 6.zt to 1920 to get car. Many of these shoppers do not get here until early in the evening. They cannot crowd shopping into a few minutes, nor dc they find it convenient to wait unti 1920 for a car that will get then home very late-and riding on late cars Saturday night is not alway: pleasant for a woman, especially ii the joy boys are aboard.

Our old friend Rheumatiz is having his inning this year, and few words of caution from one who knows about it may not be aniss
 Wear rubbers in damp weather, keep your feet dry, and avoid alcoholic drinks.
 If rheumatism gets you. or sciatica. and you have sharp twinges, gnawing pain or swollen joints or muscles, you can usually get rid of all agony in just few days by taking one teaspoenfui of Rheuma once a day.
 All druggists know about Rheuma It's harmless. yet powerful; and a 75- cent bottle will last long time. The Lee & Osgood Co. will supply you with the understanding that it must rid you of all rheumatic pains or money back.

GENERAL HAIG PRAISES 49,. ,
AMERICAN TROOPS.

The following from The Army and
Navy Journal of October 26, 1913,
will be of interest to Abbeyille pee
pie:
The 9th and 3Oth Divisions, u.
S. A., operating with the 4th British
army have received special praise
from Field Marshal Haig il. an Off
cial statement given out in France
on Oct, 10. This. statement said:
IN the course of the Last three
weeks the 27th and s0th Divisions
of the I'd American, Corps, operating
with the 4th British army, aFmry, have ta-
ken part with great gallantry and
success in three major offensive op-
erations, besides being engaged in a
number lesser attacks. In the course
of this fighting they displayed sol,
dierly qualities Of q high order and
have materially assisted in the sue
cess of our attacks.
Having fought with the utmost
dash and bravery in the great attack
of Sept. 2s, in which the linden
burg line was broken, and having on
this occasion captured the villages OF
Bellicourt and Nauroy, with a large
number of prisoners on Oct. 8 the
troops of the I'd American Army
Corps again attacked in the neigh
berhood, Of Montbrehain. T.
'In three days Of successful fight
ing the completed an advance of ten
miles from Montbrehain to st Soup
Ilet, overcoming determined resist
anee and capturing several strongly
defended villages and woods
Throughout the last three days the
1.-TWO American divisions have, again
attacked daily and on each occasion
wifi complete success, though the
enemy's resistance was most obstl-
nate. .} -'-N'
Fighting their way forward from
St. Souplet to the high ground west
Of the Sambre Canal, they have bro
ken the .enemy's resistance at all
points, beating off many counter-at-
lacks and realizing an advance OF
pearly five miles. Over 5000 prls,
bners and many guns have been ia
Ken by the two American divisions
n the several operations" -

TO THE PRESIDENT

Speak out for this people now, Sir
No bandying of words!
This is no game of shutte7cock-
This is the hour of swords.
By the cries Of the murdered children
Whom the great sea swallowed down;
By the cruel glare of the flames that fare
Tonight from the slaughtered town;
By the feet of our sons out yonder
That forge through the ways Of death
We never will pay our triumph away
For the wind of Teuton's breath!
Let the hell-born Hun surrender!
Let him lay his arms on the ground!
Shall we let him creep to his dungeon deep
And wait till the sun comes 'round9
Shall we let him go back with his punder9
Shall we let him get home with his skin'
When Foch by the blows of ten long weeks
Has hammered his barriers thin;
And the food of victorious forces
Is bursting to lay them low,
Shall we take our good pen in fingers again
And quietly write, "You may go2''
They shall not withdraw from Flanders!!
They shall not retire from France!
They shall for their lives, each man who survives
And the devil shall lead the dance!
You cannot persuade this people
To sit down for friendly chat
You cannot hold these spirits bold
Dividing this from that
They know full well who's speaking:
The hands are Esau's hands,
But the voice is the voice of jacob
The schoolboy understands.
And they know full well his meaning.
They know he means to lie,
To promise all he must until
1.-THE evil hour runs Bly,
But the people, thank God! the people
They will not have it so.
With the voice of their two grand oceans
They thunder their answer, NO!

CONCERNING "SAvIES"
People of State Pledged to Buy
Nearly $4,000, 900 Worth.

Charleston, Oct. 30.-The treas
ury department reports that about
$1,000, 100000 worth of war savings
stamps have so far been purchased
by the people of the United States,
and Of this amount South Carolina
has purchased about $7,500,0o0. On
"a Liberty Loan basis, South Carolina
would be expected to raise s5,0OO,-
900 on loan of $1,O00,0o0,00O
but the W. s. s. quota is based diff
ferently.
The, treasury department expects
the entire nation to invest in ST.
600, 100000 worth of W. S. S. by
the end Of the year, and OF this
South Carolina is expected to pur-
chase nearly s33,OOO,ooo worth
which amounts to $40 for every man
woman and child. This means that
whereas in Liberty Loan campaign
for s2,OOO,OOO,OOO this state would
have to raise only $10,OO0,000, it
must raise three times, that much in
the W. 81 S. campaign. The dis
crepency is due to the fact that in
general. the Liberty Loan quotas are
based on states banning resources,
while the w. S. S. quotas are based
on population, and the per capita
wealth of South Caarolina is far less
than most states. Thus many states
have smaller w. s. S. quotas than
this state, and had umch larger Lib
erty Loan quotas.
In the pledge campaign last June,
the people of South Carolina pledged
themselves to purchase nearly $14-,
900, 900 worth Of W. S. S. during the
year, and SO far these pledges seem
to have been kept faithfully although
some counties are tagging. The
South Carolina War Savings Com
mittee is confident that not only will
the amount pledged be actually pur-
chased, but that considerably more
will be purchased, and every effort
will be made to reach the quota set
by Washington-s33,0O 900, O,000.y An
aggressive wind-up campaign, prob
ably during the early part of Decem-
Der, will be undertaken, and as a re-
suit is is believed that the states W.
S. S. standing, now very low,< will be
vastly improved.
