CHELSEA GIVES UP TRIPS
 ABOVE NEW LONDON.
Steamer Will Not Attempt Battling With Thames River lee-Freisht Hauled Down by Five Autotrueks.

Steamer Chelsea of the Norwich New York Propeller line has given up the fight against the Thames river ice for the present at least. On her six hour trip down Sunday afternoon the steamer was damaged so that she had to be repaired at New London Tues day. =
 That day she came up as far. as Montville, a truck taking down her freight from Norwich. Thursday, how ever, the steamer remained at her New London wharf, all her freight be- ing hauled down from here by the H. K. P. trucks.
 Two 5-ton autotrucks were used, also 3 1-2 ton and 1 1-2 ton. An- other 5-ton truck will arrive nsxt week, so that Manager F. V. Knouse feels confident of being able with five autotruciss to give Norwich satisfac- tory service. while handicapped by zero weather and a frozen river. -,.y
 At present the ice in the Thames averages eight inches. Under such circumstances it was felt that at- tempting trips up through the frozen channel, where floating ice cakes at some points are piled upon the regu- lar ice, would be unwise and useless

ance of the war aims of this organiza- | tion, that a campaign for ten thous- and dollars (Norwich'S quota) is soon to be launched, support of the same l to come from the oftizens,i various or ganizations and industries of Norwich. |
 Ten thousand dollars seems like a | large sum-. yet taken from the great heart of Norwich, which has a popu- lationl of nearly thirty thousand, 1t is modest sum for an organization rep resenting over forty per cent. of the boys who have entered, the service, to carry on the great work of providing for the spiritual. moral, and physical welfare of those who have so recently been called to the front. The youth of Norwich, six hundred or more, who have already entered the service and whose names will efound on the hon. or roll board. are giving so much more | in comparison to anything that we who remain at home may be able to I give, that we feel that. the citizens of Norwich will gladly respond to this 1 call in as generous and prompt a man. ner as they have in the past, when
 called upon to render financial support l to worthy war objects.
 l The object of this letter is to take up that phase of the campaign work
 that has to do with organizations, and IL IS ITOIn InlS source that the execu- tive committee are counting upon certain amount of financial co-opera- tion. It would appear to us that the
 time has now arrived when there is
 an opportunity for social and civic or ganizations to render practical war
 service, and to doubly prove their use- fitness in the community. We believe
 we can truthfu11y say that there is no organization. which is not. proudly pointing to it's honor roll This being true, it should be equally true that
 they take pride in contributing toward
 the financial success of this campaign
 measure that has to do with service
 work.
 We are, therefore. asking you as an
 organization to take action towards
 appropriating sum of money in keep- ing with the needs of this campaign
 and within the financial ability of your , organization. Please make all checks ; payable to the Knights of Columbus , War Fund.
 Yours respectfully,

KEEP LOOKING YOUNG
It's Easy-If You Know Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets

The secret of keeping young is to feel young = to do this you must watch your. liver and bowels = there's no need of having sallow complexion = dark rings under your eyes - pimples-a a bilious look in your face = dull eyes with no sparkle. Your doctor will tell you ninety per cent of all sickness comes from in. active bowels and liver.
 . Dr. Edwards. a well-known physician in Ohio, perfected vegetable com pound mixed with olive oil to act on the liver and bowels, which he gave to his patients for years.
 : Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets, the substi' ute for calomel, are gentle in their action yet always effective. They bring about that exuberance of spirit, that natural buoyancy which should be enjoyed by everyone, by toning up the liver and clear ing the system of impurities. h You will know Dr. Edwards Olive Tab lets by their olive color. l0c and 25c pel box.
