TOLD SAILING DATE;
 OFFICER ARRESTED
Army Man Disclosed to Relative Name of Vessel and When It
 Would Leave.

Washington, Feb. "A young army officer, who confided to a relative the name of a ship on which he was going overseas and the date of sailing, is under arrest pending an investigation of whether his superiors properly in structed him concerning the require- ment of secrecy.
 In announcing the arrest the War department did not disclose the off, cers name. The purpose in giving publicity to the incident is to empha- size the departments determination to prevent the spread of information con- corning the movement of transports
 This statement was issued:
 'The War department authorizes the announcement that a young off, cer is held in arrest because he di- vulged to a relative the name of the vessel upon which he was about to start overseas and the scheduled date Of departure. AS a result of this pro- hibited information, the relative of the young officer, a first lieutenant sent 9 telegram to him at the port of em- barkation. This telegram, which was not in cipher, furnished information which, in the hands of the enemy might have endangered the vessel and all aboard.
 "The disclosure of such information by officers and men about to sail is strictly forbidden in general orders No. 94, War department, 1917, and warning is again issued that officers and men must not acquaint relatives or friends with details of arrange ments for departure. Disciplinary ac- tion faces offenders.
 'The case of the young officer in arrest in this instance is before the war department for action, allow ing an investigation at the port of embarkation.
 There is also to be further in- quiry to ascertain whether the i'm mediate superior of the officer held in arrest properly instructed this of. ficer as to the requirement Of secrecy concerning the names of vessels and sailing dates.'

FIRM FOUNDATION
Nothing Can Undermine It in New
 Britain.


 People are sometimes slow to rec ognize true merit, and they cannot be blamed, for so many have been hum bugged in the past. The experience of many New Britain residents, ex- pressed publicly through newspapers and other sources, places Doar's Kid ney Pills on firm foundation here.
 s. Molander, carpenter, 28S Maple St., New Britain, says: "Backache had been bothering me for nearly a year and I think the trouble was brought on by my work. My back felt weak and often sharp pains caught me when I stopped. My linn bs ached, too. I doctored and used med- icines but got little relief. After us- ing four boxes Of Deans Kidney Pills, my back was as strong as ever.'

Wants Wood Choppers.

Col C. M. Jarvis has a number of woodchoppers at work on his farm, but there is still need of more. To remedy this, and also to furnish em ployment to those men who do not care to remain idle on Mondays, there is an opportunity to cut wood at the farm for $2 a cord. Many of the ex- perienced choppers have been known to cut two cords @ day. At this time, with the fuel situation as serious as it is, there will no doubt be many To- cal men who will take advantage of this offer to work and in this way recover in a small measure that which they are losing through the closing order.
 There will be a. meeting of the woodchopping committee this evening at the town hall. President Garner ! Goodwin has called the committee to- 1 gether in order to perfect the plans ! for tho coming woodchopplng bee which is to be held in the near fu- ! ture.

FOR THE RED CROSS.

The Southern Division Of the Red Cross viii
hold important conferences in each one of the
five states throughout the Southern Division
The conference has for its object the Christmas
Roll Call which means that during the week OF
December 10th to 23rd the Red Cross hopes to
enlist every adult person in the division as
member of the organization.
It has been planned that this will be accom-
plished by the spoken rather than the written
word hence special roll call committee has been
appointed from each Red Cross Chapter.
This is not drive for funds, it is an opportun-
ty for every person in the five states which COM
pose the Southern Division to become affiliated
with the Red Cross and thus to have part in the
gigantic task of reconstruction, which confronts
The Red Cross overseas, and also to lend helping
hand in continuing the work of the Red Cross for
the soldiers and sailors in this country and over
seas.
No less than 100000 men took part in the last
great offensive before the armistice was signed;
his means a vast percentage of wounded and
permanently disabled men. The Red Cross seeks
20 give the people of the country chance to help
IN showing these men and every other man in the
fighting forces abroad, as we'll as in the army
camps at home, that their wonderful work has
been fully appreciated.
The Red Cross has not participated to the ex-
tent of single penny of money in any recent
drive or campaign for funds. The Christmas Roll
Call means that the Red Cross wants the coopera-
lion and Endorsement of every person in the
United States. The conference will be held in
Florida at Jacksonville on November 25th From
1ivsic; headquarters there will be present Guy
