 Local officials connected with the in spections of bakeries under the state food administrations declined to give instructions. but it is understood the complaints involved refusal or eva sion on the part of bakers to use the proper amount of substitutes, and that these first cases will not he the last complaints to be given hearings.
 The officials who were in charge of the hearings came here from Hart ford with their own clerical and stenographic force.

DOLLAR DAY POSTERS
 INVITE THE RuYERS

All over the city on Friday mer- chants were preparing for the opening of Norwich Dollar Day this Saturday, morning at g o'clock. In the window of every store that is o-operating in the Dollar Day plan appeared the Dol lar Day posters, bearing the words This is an official Dollar Day store" !"
 With the fair weather that is prom ised, the store keepers. are anticipating large influx of visitors from all East ern Connecticut while the attractive special bargain offerings and unequal ed values that will be found in the goods on their counters and shelves will make every Dollar Day store a point of attraction to local people.
 It is confidently predicted that this will be Dollar Day in Norwich that will surpass all previous experiences in similar plans in this city and that when the stores close their dooors at night, it will be with a feeling that both customers and merchants have profited by the Dollar Day plan.

FLAGRANT ABUSE OF
 CANNING CERTIFICATES

Because they are unlikely to get certificates tor any more sugar until about October is no reason, in the opinion of the Food Administration, why Connecticut retailers should re- fuse to sell sugar for legitimate can ming purposes. It was made clear at the office of the federal food admins trator for Connecticut on Friday that the recent warning to retailers to go easy on their present sugar stocks because they might not get any more during September, could not properly be construed as an excuse for refusing to sell sugar for proper purposes or for any technical hoarding by the re-
 tailers themselves.
 As for canning, at this time of the year, the food administration is well aware that unfortunately there is
 very little fruit In Connecticut which may be canned and surplus fruit can
 not be claimed as a reason for obtain ing unnecessary large quantities, of
 sugar for catning. The food admins tration's liberal canning certificate
 system, founded on the honor of the person who signed the certificate has been f1agrantiy abused in Connecticut and throughout the country and the food administration says it has a mass Of evidence to prove this contention. It is claimed that people who never before bought
 sugar for canning and who this year did no canning or preserving what l ever. made frequent use of the sugar 1 canning certificates on which to se- cure Is or more pounds of sugar at one time. Some retailers aided and | abetted these evasions of the regu lations hy care'essly failing to police | their own business.
 | For this reason the food admins | tration says that the whole sugar sit
 nation is up to the retailers and te 1 the consumers, both of which classes
 "o7 orally speaking are known to be i fairly well equipped with &ngar fol 1 weeks to come.

CAL0MEL SALEVATES
AND MAKES YOU SICK
Acts like dynamite on a sluggish
liver and you lose
days work.

There's no reason why person
should take sickening, salivating Gallo
mel when a few cents buys large
bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone-a per
feet substitute for calomel.
1t is a pleasant, vegetable liquid
which will start your liver just as
surely as calomel. but it doesn't make
you sick and can not salivate.
Children and grown folks can take
Dodson's Liver Tone, because it is
perfectly harmless.
Calomel is a dangerous drug. 1t is
mercury and attacks your bones.T Take
a dose of nasty calomel today and
YOU will feel weak. sick and nauseat
ed tomorrow. Don't lose days
work. Take a spoonful of Dodson's
Liver Tone instead and you will wake
up feeling great.No more biliousness
constipation, sluggishness headache
coated tongue or sour stomach. our
druggist says if you don't find Dod
sons Liver Tone acts better than
horrible calomel your money is wait
ing for you.

shells miles long that the Germans
had stacked in the woods we captur-
ed, they opened our eyes to what
their splendid victory saved US from.
The huns were prepared to the last
notch for drive that would have
put them within good shelling dis
lance of Paris. Those millions of
shells would have put a heavy toll on
our, armies. The best defense is to
knock out the enemy.
