NTY.THREE sAlloRs


 It was certainly happy company of sailors that pattook of the Sun day breakfast at the local Young Mems Christian Association. The menu con sisted of escalfoped potatoes, meat loaf, bread, butter, coffee and dough- nuts.
 The breakfast was graciously serv- ed by members of the Y. M c. A. Wo- mans auxiliary and several young la dies.
 Before the boys sat down they sang heartily, Keep the Home Fires Burning and this was followed by the blessing.
 A brief and timely talk was given by Leonard 0. Smith. and his words were heartily applauded. Among oth- CT things MT. Smith said:
 "Boys, we have good news this morning, and you hardly need a talk from me, but will avail myself of the privilege of saying a few words to you. I speak to you as comrades, for l was one of those who answered the call to my country back in the sixties; I remember how I pleaded with my father and mother to permit me to volunteer; they hesitated at first, be- cause I was so young, being then 8 student in the Norwich Free Academy Finally they gave their consent ant I proudly gave myself to the service | of Uncle Sam.

sailors and soldiers in this section, but also to conserve as much as pos sible the health of the thousands of workers in the county who are en- gagged in the production of essential war materials, including both guns and ships. That the government con- sfders this important is shown not only in the above regulations but also by the fact that only pastuerized milk Is being used for consumption at the naval base. Due to the fact that pro- ducers are not able to meet the re- quirementS of the navy, several hun dred quarts of milk are being brought into the county daily from outside sources, a market right at our doors which we are not able to supply.
 It is proposed to establish CO., operative milk plants at Norwich and l New London which will be equipped 1 to turn out products meeting the re- quirements of the government and also will be able to handle all the surplus product for its members. A co-opera- | tive association of producers, properly l managed, will not only enable it! members to market their product un. | der the new regulations but will als'
