G. A. R. MEN ATTEND
 TWO CHURCH SERVICES
Sedgwick Post Men Accompanied by
 Kindred Patriotic Societies.

Members of Sedsdick post, G. A. R., the Woman's Relief corps, Sons of Veterans and Daughters of Veterans atetnded Memorial services at two churches on Sunday.
 Tn the morning they were at the Church of The Good Shepherd (Uni- versalist), where they heard an ex- cellent sermon by the pastor. Rev. Jo- seph r. Cobb, who spoke upon The Element of Sacrifice. He paid tribute to tic sacrifice that the men of '61 had made with such glorious results and reminded his hearers that never be- fore had there been a memorial sea- son just like this one for today we hold in grateful remembrance the boys of the Civil war, of the Spanish Amer ican war and of the youthful patriots of this country who have given or are giving their lives in the international war.
 Al Baptist Church.
 In the evening the. veterans attend ed the Central Baptist church where the pulpit was recorated with flowers and flags, the American, Italian, French ond English flags occupying prominent places in the decorations.
 Rev Arthur F. Purkiss pastor of the church. delivered the Memorial ad- dress. Rev. Mir. Purkiss reminded the men of '61 that had it not been for what they had done we should not have been the great triumphant united people that we are. marching forth as a mighty puissant people to save the world from the hellishness of a Ger man peace. You men are responsible for this, he said, and we cannot thank you too much for it.
 This is 9 erraaf war MnSt wars 6aTn two sides to them This has but one.
 Germany is anti Christ Anti Christ in beginning the war, anti Christ in her method of earring it on, anti-Christ in her dealings with sur rendered countries like Russia and Roumania. We used to wonder if there were not two sides. But poison gas. robbing of banks. raping of women and shouting of helpless and defenceless men is record never before equalled by any nation in human history. 9th CT nations have been cruel in warfare but not in organized Hellishness. There is now no question of hoy, why. or where we stand in this war. There is not room enough on this earth for Germany and civilized human beings So one or the other of us must die. It is either surrender your freedom, your democracy, your minds and your Christ. or crush the Germans. We have no choice in this war. You veter- ans of the Civil war fought for the freedom of the slaves and now our boys over there are fighting for the freedom of the world. Jesus Christ died upon the cross to redeem men from sin and not to set men free. We are the Fessiah nation. We are giving eur4 felves that the world might live. Car " on is the watch word and we at l home must do this.

Saturday sent the Red Cross cam paign to raise the Norwich quota of s40,000 up to within just a few notches of the top on the thermometer on Franklin square, for the official report on Saturday night was that there was over S35, 900 in sight and every pros pect that Norwich would go booming over the top on the last day of the drive today (Alonday).
 When the Norwich boys in the trenches and lover there" receive the heartening news that their home city has come forward once more and has responded generously to the appeal of the American Red Cross in it's cam paign for war funds. our boys lover there will understand that every man,
 woman and child iii the community is behind them, ready to back them to the very limit in everything that is essential in providing the necessary comforts and the necessary safeguards so that not one life will be sacrificed rieedlessly.
 And that is the message that must go across if we are to maintain our self respect said Chairman Eben Learned in summarizing the progress of the drive to date. Every team, every committee, and every agency employed in this campaign has done wonderful work, but we enter upon the last day of the drive with the al lotment of S40,000 which was set for the goal of this campaign just a step ahead. But we are not discouraged. Instead we. are more determined than ever to accomplish our purpose and to that end there will be a most ac- 1 tive campaign waged in every depart ment from now until the closing hour iCbf i7IN ceed in raising its allotted quota" On Sunday the workers took a rest except for those who were stationed at the Norwich Savings Society corner to secure contributions from automo i bilists as they had done on Saturday | with the help of the traffic police men.
 Today all the teams will take ur l the drive again prepared to make the 1 last day send Norwich over the tor i with a handsome margin to spare.

Letter from Jean cIavsrie.

April 21, 1918. Dear Sir:
 I am up for two hours today and feel pretty good, so will take advan- tase of it to write you few lines.
 Monsieur R. Magnus tells me that nevertheless, this will prove to you that I am not only out of danger but feeling considerably better.
 Doctors don't want me to write much yet. for I have lost my left eye and my right is still weak. 1 felt bit shocked when, after a thorough exanP- ination, the specialist told me that my eye would be entirely lost, for I had hoped it would get better. I am gaining strength every day and hardly suffer any more from my wound, that is physically, for I have a terrible gash on my face, almost from ear to ear.
 have been told that will be dis charged from active service as soon as l am strong enough to go home. This has hurt me more than anything else You see, it is so long since I have stepped out of civilian life that, all though I always looked forward to the day when I would be able to get back to work and to liberty, I am quite staggered now that am on the eve of regaining my freedom
 I give myself good scoldings for feeling this way. but that does noi seem to help any. I suppose I vii | feel different once I get home and get strong again.
 Thank you for the magazines re. ceived some three weeks ago. They surely do keep me company in this l lonely place. Some ''Sammies" are ir my room and have passed few tt them They. too, have enjoyed then immensely.
 MT. Magnus tells me that you cablet 1 him to help me out, if I needed. Mill, l fois merci. But, for the moment, don't need anything. I still have "A | F. left at the Farmers Loan & Trus company from your last check I sen for it yesterday, as the bill of far, 1 here is rather light. I had used tn other half of the money to dress ant get the most necessary things after VI were burned out. They cut my uni form to pieces after I was wounded anyway, it was all stained with blood so I'll have to start again Enfin e'est la guerre! I don't know hoy long I will remain here. so please ad dress me care of MT. Magnus. or a my home. En attendant le pIaisir d vous voir bientot. Croyez moi, Votre devoue
