Contrary to the state law, an schools

Contrary to the state law, all schools
in the county are not flying the ma
tional emblem. The Battle Creek school
two miles west of Turner is pretty
close to the law. 1t has fine big
flag pole but just at present the flag
is floating from a small pole without
much dignity. The Union Hill school
near Silver Creek Falls has been doing
pretty well with its flag this fall but
recently a storm came along and blew
down the flag pole. Hence no flag IS
flying today. The Pleasant View school
four miles south Of Turner has the flag
and pole but the teacher was under ths
impression that the right place to show
the national emblem was in the school
house. The law says the flag pole Is
the right place when school is in ses-
sion. Silver Creek Falls district is up
and coming with new flagpole and
new flag Summit school about four
miles southwest of Turner has no flag
pole and its flag is in pretty bad con
dition, hardly fit to fly. But in gen
eral, rural schools are complying with
the law which provides that the school
must have flag pole and flag and
that the flag must fly when school is
in session.

and to Miss Cumming more than to
any others that this library possesses
one of the finest selections of books
of any of the smaller libraries of the
state.
She was a lifelong member of the
Congregational church, first at East
Canaan where she was long the or
ganist, and later of Pilgrim church
of which was a charter member and
to which she gave most literally. She
was most devoted to the services of
the church and has been for years
treasurer of the Woman's Missionary
Society. She will be sorely missed
in her church.
In her younger days Miss Adam
was an expert and daring horsewom-
an, a musician of marked ability and
of discriminating taste; and always
she possessed great zest in life, an
unusual vitality, rich humor, a great
capacity for friendship, and a mind
familiar with the best in books and
life. In earlier years she wrote some
under the pen name of "Wangum".
1t was an interesting commentary
on the character of her home life and
her power to command the devotion
of others that she had in her domes-
tic service one woman for seventy
one years and an old English gardner
for over forty years.
Miss Adam was the youngest of
three children, the others having
been Robert Adam, a prominent
bankryof Pittsfeld, and Mrs. Hiram
Eddy whose death saddened many
hearts in Canaan a few years ago.
Miss Adam leaves neice, Mrs. H. E.
Lyles of Canaan, and two nephews,
Samuel A. Eddy of Canaan and
William L. Adam of Pittsfeld, and
four grand-nephews.
The funeral was held at the old
home on Tuesday afternoon at five
o'clock and was conducted by the
Rev. r. M. Timberlake and the Rev.
E. C. Gillette. The bearers were
William L. Adam, Samuel A. Eddy,
Harry E. Lyles and Everett Eddy
Lyles. The burial was in the family
plot in the lower cemetery.

LABOR CRISIS

Every individual who has given the
matter any thought, realized as the
vast majority do now, that there
must come time when the nation
must face a serious shortage of
skilled and unskilled labor. The out
come was inevitable when it was de-
cided that this country must send two
million men to the battle fields in
France. There was no alternative.
The first great consideration of the
government was to place an army of
such formidable numbers in the field
that the tide of battle might be
turned, and this it is reasonable to
think has been accomplished in very
satisfactory manner. Now we must
have more men in France and Italy
to insure victory.
While we are sending these hun
dreds of thousands men to war, GER
tain industries must not be over
looked, as their uninterrupted opera
ton is as necessary as soldiers. Con-
necticut, one of the smallest states in
the Union, is one of the largest when
it comes to manufacturing, and at
the present time is practically serv-
ing as an arsenal to the nation. Here,
I'm this state, is where the labor
shortage must not be felt, except in
such industries as are non-essential
to the winning of the war.
Last winter rumors came to this
country that our men did not have
the equipment necessary for sold
Ter and some went so far as to say
that many of our men did not have
even a revolver. Whether these ru-
mors were unfounded or not is beside
the question. There is one fact
which everyone must know: our men
must have unlimited supplies OF
equipment and ammunition, and in
order to give them these supplies
we must have men and women who
will consider it their duty to ou1
country and our allies, to keep thu
factories running day and nigh
which manufacture these products.
Connecticut today is facing
shortage of over one million un
skilled laborers in war industries an
when the draft ages are extended
this shortage will become almos
double. There can be only one solu
ton of this gigantic problem, an
that is to draft sufficient labor fror
non-essential industries to overcom
the shortage that is causing seriou
delay in the manufacture of war ma
terial. The farms, railroads an
mines are equally important and
give these, together with the factorie
