Lieut.. Andrews was over the draft age, but he heard the call of his country and promptly enlisted. He gave up a lucrative position as chemist at the American Hardware corporation and on account of his technical ability he was assigned by the government to the Bethlehem Steel Works, where he is engaged in important chemical work in watching the output of Char lie Schwabs giant corporation, which has millions of dollars of government contracts The Taft club, it will be called, is composed of persons who pledge themselves to purchase 8 thou sand dollars worth of Thrift Stamps during the current year. New Britain is still behind the quota in the War Savings campaign, and 0 few more one thousand dollar memberships would be great help. Some people have an idea that the War Savings Stamps are only for children, but this is en- tirely erroneous. Everyone is expect ed to buy these baby bonds. People can save up money this way without feeling it at all and will be surprised how fast it counts up. At the same time they will he adding a great help to Uncle Sam in his tough job Of fi- nancing the war. No one is giving money in buying Thrift Stamps, but Is getting four per cent, on it. War Savings Stamps are the safest sim plest and best investment that can be made, and they are strongly rec commended by the New Britain Ma tional bank. the New Britain Trust Co.,. the Commercial Trust Co., the Peoples Savings bank and the Savings Bank of New Britain.

 How about potatoes at $2 a bushel?''
 At the conclusion of his talk he was greeted with applause.
 Schools Cost Mill Tax
 In opening his remarks the Mayor said that four years ago when he spoke at the same factory gates he told the men that if elected he would be mayor of the whole people and would try and give them q good gov ernment, free from cheap politics. T have tried 60 keep that pledge for a government for the people and not for the politicians" he said, and add cd that today the government of New Britain is second to none in the state. He recalled that his opponents charge that the tax rate has jumped to 20 I2 mills but, he said, the cost of ma in taining the school system alone has increased S150,000 in that time and this accounts for a three mill tax boost He said that the state tax is s75, 900 instead of $45, 00O, and that ia one-half mill more. He also eX- plained the costs of the various schools and parks. explaining that the assets of the city, over the in creased debt, are about $450,O00 on the right side

VASSALBORO
Oak Grove Notes

YAK 0Fov0 tNOI00
For two weeks Oak Grove has been
under a self imposed quarantine
which Prin. Owen placed on the
school before any cases Of influenza
developed. This was felt necessary
on account Of the large number Of
students coming in for the day who
could not be justly excluded while
there were no cases Of the epidemic.
The majority Of the dormitory stu
dents returned to their homes but
some of those from out of the state
have remained because their parents
felt the children were far safer at the
school than anywhere else.
Although nothing has been done N
the regular academic line since school
closed: Oak Grove has been a very
happy, busy place. The 20 who are
there are improving their time In va
tious ways. During the day teachers
and students separate into four or
FIVE squads and each squad takes up
some work. On the pleasant days
the squads work on the campus;
moving lawns, raking leaves, weed
ing walks, and pruning shrubbery.
The evenings are spent together in
the big living rooms. Prin. and Mrs.
owen are keeping the students in the
open air as much as possible and they
are a robust family. When the
weather is unsuitable the students
are working inside. The entire Ii
brary has been rearranged under
Miss Florence Clifford. The Junior
and Senior girls have nearly COM
pleted redecorating Class Room Two.
This has been the least attractive
recitation room in the building but
will soon rank first. A generous
gift of money from a friend of Oak
Grove in Winthrop Center for new
recitation chairs, was the incentive
for the girls to remodel this room. 1t
Is being done in old ivory with dark
oak furniture. The pictures will be
sepias. and the girls are taking the
greatest pride in the artistic effect of
their work.
The students are also preparing for
q big War Savings Stamp Campaign
when school reopens. and already
I've a large supply of attractive pos
tiers in conspicuous places to greet
the returning students.
The Y. w. c. A. girls have ordered
a supply of nuts and candy which
they will sell and give the profit to
Red Cross work. They also have
supply of yarn in readiness and ex-
pect to organize large knitting
class.
If conditions in this part of the
state warrant it, Oak Grove will re-
open with regular study hours on
Tuesday evening Nov. 5. REGULATIONS
will begin Wednesday morning.
