WOMEN WILL AID FARM
 BUREAU WORK

In a letter issued to the county chairman of their organization, the Woman's Committee of the State and National Council of Defense calls upon their local organization to do everything possible to assist in the County Farm Bureau membership campaign. The letter is in part as fellows;
 We women of the state do not wish to lag behind in supporting an agency upon which at the present juncture so much depends. I, there. fore beg you to do all in your power to help your local Farm Bureau in its campaign. As the Council of De- fense said in its letter, this campaign offers the best opportunity which the people of Connecticut who are not actual producers of food will have to contribute directly to the solution of the food production and conservation problems within the state.
 Many Connecticut women are pro- ducers of food and more are con- servers. These will know enough about the subject to support the Farm Bureaus in every possible way; but there are many others who are neither and to whom the words of the State Council should go straight home. Please do all you can to educate the women of your community as to tha value of the Farm Bureaus.
 Yours faithfully,
 (Signed)
 CAROLINE RUUTZ-REES' ''
 The County Farm Bureau exists for the women as well as for the men as has been pointed out by State Leader I. G. Davis of the Connecticut Agricultural College. At least 1OO,- 900 women throughout the state will be reached by demonstrations during the coming year and as many ore will be reached by other means.

Noonan Now In Franco.

In letter to his cousin J. NJ. A.
Mack. manager OF the Postal Telegraph
Company, w. j. Noonan. formerly of
this city. writes from France telling of
soldier life over there"
The last heard Of Noonan was thru
a letter to Mr.. Mack, last September.
when Noonan was stationed at Char
lottc, S. c. The long period of silence
led to the belief that he had been sent
to France, but the first definite word of
his transfer abroad came in the letter,
written Jan. 10. which Mr.. Mack re-
ceived this week.
Noonan is a member of Company b.
one hundred sixteenth field signal
corps, and evidently he had been in
France all winter. Owing to the fact
that a month elapsed between the time
the letter was written and the date of
it's receipt, it is believed Noonan is in
service near the first line Of trenches,
or actively engaged in operations
against the Germans.
