NORWICH TO RAISE
 SeoO.ooo IN WAR STAMPS

Norwich isn't through. She has just
 found out that she is a mine of ufl- exhausted possibilities when patriotic needs are concerned. It is necessary that very large sums of money be raised through the medium of the war savings stamps. It is to be done in this month of December. A five , dollar stamp will cost you just S4.2S tbis month, and an investment of s42.S0 will bring you in the nice fat sum of $50 when the stamps mature Z We are not to be asked to pledge our selves for a purchase Of these stamps
 to be spread over 8. number of months, but we arc going. to be asked to buy ourselves a Christmas present, and do ! if this month. the Christmas month 1 says the local committee in charge of ! the drive.
 Of course you needn't keep this
 gift for yourself. One nf these hand - l some stamps, or ten of them, or fifty of them, or hundred of them would make fine gift for you to make some member of yous, family. Beginning ] Saturday of this week, you will be approached by patriotic women of this lccnmunity who have volunteered to 1 undertake this mission. Speakers in the theatres will bring the message to you. The need for this money is real, even 1T the war is at a halt, and we know that Norwich will respond as she has responded in the past. But l bear this in mind, that while we have responded nobly to the many demands
 that have been brought to us, we haven't bought Sthe war saving stamps as we should. Let us get busy. then, this month, and prove that we can carry, and more than carry our share Of all the national burdens,
 The time to do things is when they
 seem impossible Of accomplishment
 The busy man Or woman is always the one who can find the time to d9
 the work of the world. You have been busy. Don't stop now and say it is time for someone else to do it Don't spend too much time cheering the happy ending of the war. but put ycuI shoulder to the war stamp wheel, anf

DOING WRONG TO DO HIGHT
Manufacturer Form Combination 70
'Asslst Government Directly In vio-
latlon Of Sherman Antitrust Law.

A manufacturer connected with one
of the biggest plants Of Its kind in the
country told O writer for the philadel-
phia Ledger recently that the govern
ment wanted one of Its products, but
wanted II in such enormous quantities
and in such haste that II would have
been impossible for any ono plant to
turn It out. IA
/ The manufacturer wanted to help
the government. so he called together
the representatives of more than o
dozen other large plants In the same
line Of business and explained the
situation to them.
"We must agree on price, a low
price, so the government can get what
It needs"
All were competitors, but they came
to the governments assistance and
agreed to make the product and de-
liver It for price so low that there
not only would be no excess profits to
tax, but there was a strong belief that
there would be no potts at all.
aThis combination remarked the
manufacturer, ''was directly In viola,
ton Of the Sherman antitrust law, and
at any other time we might all be put
In jail. But II was the only way"
