Artillery Officer Writes.

Lieut.. Joseph w. Albiston has also written to 'The Stanley Workers He is with Battery B of the 53rd U. S. Artillery in France. He writes:
 April ', 1918.
 Copies of "The Stanley Workers have been coming to my ever chang ing address with great regularity and it Is high time I thanked you for it. Although there are some names that are unfamiliar one always has that peculiar satisfied feeling, known so well by those in the service, of get ting som ething from home.
 Just at present I am with the heavy artillery regiment, but only for a short time We are within sound range of the big guns at the front on a still day or when the winds comes from over the lines.
 For month I was with a French escadrille, learning the fundamentals of observation under some of the best aerial observers in the French serv- ice. The French captain has enough ribbons to start ribbon counter and he required an extra length on his "CroiX de Guerre" ribbon to pin on

LETTERS FROM ARMY

Lieut.. John F. Connors of this city, now with the 165th U. $. Infantry in active service in France has writ ten the following letter to the Stanley Workers, a paper publisred by the factory at which he was formerly employed
 April 21st, 1918,
 Your last letter was well received here, because it had real news con- corning the things l am interested in. A quality that nearly every one seems to forget Were it not for newspaper clippings and '"The Stanley Workers, 1 would have to confess a total ig- norance to all of the many things you are doing at the Works.
 A while ago I passed out a num- ber of trench lnives very good piece of work, and of course the workmanship interested mo as they were made from our own steel with Ianders, Frary 6s Clark stamped on. it. Apparently every New Britain factory is a government workship.
 I am still making excellent use of that "Dry-Foot." This is the third week of rain, and the mud is thicker than ever. Rats and mud demand incessant attention Between the two, it is the easiest thing in the world to lose a boot, or days ra- tions or days sleep. The rest of the time we pay attention to the Boche.
 The drive must have stirred up lot over across. It did here. We have been very much on the alert, 'in and out for two months now. There are, of course, many things to put in l,,,4 n, will always stick. It is the biggest surprise to learn how much space there is oh all sides of me. I never knew that before.
 To cope with the various phases of this life, one should be a rare bird. When a plane is close by or the big ones have the range, I worry more about how small I can make myself 1 than anything else, and when we 1 have been close to, I want it just the 1 other way. That tin hat seems the 1 size of an umbrella when there is no imm ediate use for it. but as soon as 1 that occasion arises, the thing feels 1 more like a coat button. I am now taking a few days of 1 rest" but that terms is a whole lot l deceiving. It usually signifies a clean ing up to get ready for the next one 1 and work as hard or harden than ir the trenches. The real redeeming fea- | ture is that bath. and a change. I haven't heard from Rodmar 1 Cham berlain, Or any of the men o1 l the old regiment, except for a letter from Ashley Griffin. They have beer doing good work. I am mighty glat to hear of the good returns coming in from them.
 Between scattering letters and "The Stanley Workers 1 hope I car 1 keep abreast of the many things tha | are new to the Works since I wa! with you last. I'll keep an eye fol all of that

Seven German Singing Societies Offer Services to State Council
 of Defense.

Hartford, May 20.--Gratifying evil dencc of loyalty to America and the cause of the war is being shown by citizens of German birth or cxtrac ton who are lending their voices in war work through organization into Liberty choruseS. Seven societies which in former years have devoted their time and training to vocal eff forts in the German tongue have a department of the publicity commit tee of the Connecticut State Council of Defense, coming into the state $ patriotic activities as individual sing ing organza tions
 These new Liberty choruses and their unit numbers are: Sangerbund of New Haven, No. 116; Arion society of South Norwalk. No. 117: Turner Leidertafel of Stamford, No. 11s; Ger mania and Arion societies of Bridge port, unit numbers 119 and 12O, re- spectively. Some time ago the Schwabisher Maennercbor of Bridge port No. 7S. and the Hungar society of New Haven, No. S3, became affili- ated with the division.
 All of these choruses consist of male m mbership and, recognizing the need ties, the council recently authorized the npilation of such a book which it is expected, will be ready this month

Of machinery. In Florida, the value
OF implements for each farm is s3O43:
the annual income of each worker in
the same state is $119.72. In Alabama,
the value of implements on each farm
is $23.4O; and the annual income of
each worker is $143.98. In Iowa, the
value of implements is $196.55 for
each farm; and the corresponding an
nual income of each worker is S611.11.
In North Dakota, the value of imple-
ments for each farm is $238.84: and
the annual income for each worker
is S155.62. 1t is seen that the greater
use OF implements increases the in
come of each worker, which may be
interpreted as AN increase in the pro-
