The organization of the local cam
paign for the United War Workers
campaign is going steadily on. A
special meeting Of the executive COM
mittee of the general committee will
be held this evening. The slogan in
this town for this campaign will be:
Give a Days Pay. All those who
give a days pay will receive an honor
ing. Special subscriptions from
larger number of citizens will call for
amounts materially in excess of a
days pay but at least that amount
is expected from every wage Garner.
Questiomaires Sent Out.
The local draft board is working
hard in its attempt to get out the
missionaries for men between IS
and 81 to 5 years of age. The first
of these were sent out on Saturday
and it is planned to send ten per
cent. of them for ten successive days
or until the entire number have been
sent out. At the present time the
board is working under great diff
culties as the clerical force is not
large enough and part of the force
is out sick. At the present time the
board is in need of four more clerks
but there is no prospects of obtaining
them unless some volunteer. Ac-
cording to the number of question:
naires sent out on Saturday the
board will have to send out 400 a
day in order to have them out in
the ten days.
Must Replace Sick Men.
Because there were so many men
sick with influenza at the time that
the last draft quota left this district,
the local board received instructions
to send enough men to make up for
those sick. In accordance with these
instructions the board notified the
men to be ready to leave this morn
ing. Eight men left this morning
and they will go to Fortress Monroe,
Va, the same destination as the last
quotas. Mr.. Miller has received a
card from Raymond Roberts who
captained the last quota to camp
stating that the men arrived O. K.
and all are in good health at the
present time. The men like the warm
climate Of Virginia. The men who
left this morning were nptained by
John J. O'Leary of Avon.
Autos in Collisions.
An auto accident the seriousne ss Of
which is not yet determined occurred
on the New Britain road at a point
near the stone crusher at White Oak

REPLIES TO QUIGLEY.
Smith Says People Have Been Lynch
ed for Less Cause.

Thomas j. Smith addressed a meet
ing of democrats at the rooms of the
Woodrow Wilson club Saturday night.
He backed the president in his ap-
peal for democratic executive body
and scored Mayor George A. Quigley
for his statements made in Unionville.
He cited the similar appeal made by
President Mckinley in 1898 when he
requested a republican congress to
work in unison with him and told of
the response of the democrats at that
time.
Speaking of the remarks of Mayor
Quigley the speaker said that people
have been lynched for much less.
Attorney P. F. McDonough was to
have addressed the meeting but was
unable to attend because of a rush on
filling out missionaries

ported this morning in a dying condi-
ton. Mystery surrounds the accident
and the local police are withholding
the names of the parties concerned
until the condition of the men in the
hospital changes. One thing is known
about the affair and that is that the
accident was a bad one and how the
occupants escaped death is little less
than a miracle. The two automobiles
were reduced to scrap and were
towed to a New Britain garage TO pc
sold as Junk. There were three girls
connected with the affair but the only
statement concerning them which the
police would make was that they
were from Glastonbury and are
known in case they are needed.

Radcliffe #. Livingstone Dead.
Pneumonia claimed another Plain
vile boy yesterday. Radcliffe Fuller
Livingstone, the 16 year old son or
Mr.. and Mrs. George Livingstone,
died at his home early yesterday af-
ternoon. Radcliffe was one OF the best
known youths of the town ana MS
death comes as a distinct shock to
all who knew him. He was a bright
lad, we'll liked by every one, and es-
pecially by his teachers at school.
During the last summer vacation he
worked at the Henry Baum factory.
The funeral will be held from his
parents home on Pearl street on
Wednesday afternoon. His parents
and two sisters and brother survive
him. The family have the deepest

After a recess of three weeks the

To End Dandruff

There is one sire way that never fails
to remove dandruh completely and that
is to dissolve it This destroys it en-
trely TO do this, just get about four
ounces Of plain, ordinary liquid arvon ;
apply it at night when retiring; use
enough to mo5ten the scalp and rub it
in gently with the finger tips.
BY morning, most ii not all, of your
dandrulf will be gone, and three or four
more applications will completely dis
solve and entirely destroy every single
sign and trace OF it, no matter how much
dandruff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching and
digging Of the scalp will stop instantly,
and your hair will be fluffy, lustrqus,
glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel
hundred times better.
You can get LIQUID arvon at any drug
store 1t is inexpensive and four
ounces is all you will need. This simple
remedy has never been known to fail.

The CHAMPION BOND BUYERS

If Liberty Loan subscriptions aiiotd
any fair standard OF Judgment, those
who have questioned the loyalty OF
German communities in this country
must revise their opinions.
From recent reports OF Liberty
Bond sales. one might get the impress
sion that our German citizens have
been furnishing more war sineWs
than any other class. Certainly they
have covered themselves with honor.
Official government figures given out
April 30, showed that the federal re-
serve districts making the best show
ing were those generally credited
with the biggest proportion OF Ger
man residents.
The Minneapolis district had sub
scribed 125 per cent. OF its quota, the
st. Louis district III per cent the
Kansas City district 40 per cent,
and the Chicago district 81 per cent.
The lowest percentage 81 all was that
of a southern district inhabited al.
most entirely by native Americans
Our citizens Of German origin seem
to have set out deliberately to con
vince the country of their American
ism. And they have done il in a
very obvious and effective manner
The story of Hilshoro Kan, though
not exactly typical is Illuminating be-
cause it shows the trend.

chant was threatened with a general
boycott for putting an American flag
in his window Most Of his fellow eli
