MUST KEEP BRITISH
 REGISTRANTS SEPARATE

Major John Buckley, state director of the draft, notified all local boards on Friday that they are required to examine the registration cards of all persons who registered Aug. "A or since in pursuance of President Will sons proclamation of Aug. 13 and place in a separate file the cards of all British subjects, including Canadians, whether declarants or non tieclarants. Until further notice such cards must be made available for inspection by properly accredited representatives of the British and Canadian recruiting mission.
 In order to comply with the terms Of the conventions this country has ratified with Great Britain and Canada the involuntary induction of every such person must be suspended until and including Sept. p. 1918. The statement of registrant on his regis tration card that he is a subject of Great Britain or Canadian shall be sufficient evidence of his nationality unless the local board is satisfied that such statement is untrue.
 Major Buckley also directed the at tention of local boards to those para graphs of the selective service regu- lations which direct the stay of in- voluntary induction of any registrant who is a subject of neutral in the present war, and who has declared his intention to become citizen of the United States.

CATTLE AND HORSES

Sunday was a busy day at the fair grounds, as many of the exhibitors and those having stands on the grounds were putting up booths and arranging their exhibits. No one was allowed on the grounds except those who had business there.

 The barn which was recently dam aged by fire has been repaired and will be ready for use today, the opening day. Many herds of cattle arrived on the grounds on Sunday, among which was the herd of Guernseys of J. B. Palmer, E. M O'Brien's herd of Ayr shires, J. D.

NORWICH AUTO|sTs CONSERVE GASOLINE.

Scores of Norwich families reverted to the comfort of their piazzas on
 Sunday instead of the usual spin over
 miles of this and surrounding states, or trips to the seashore. while down
 in their garages their faithful motors stood, cold and neglected, waiting for
 their masters to tuTn them over. Hundreds of pedestrians accustomed to stop. look and listen before step- ping into the street found the eau ton needless for the town had re- lapsed into the Sunday quiet that has not yet quite faddd entirely from the
 memory of the oldest inhabitant. Norwich was doing it's bit in gaso- | lene conservation on the "sasless Sun
 day. ordained by the fuel eommissoin for all the country east of the Mis- sissippi river.
 As the fuel administration figured that about two gallons per ear could
 be counted upon as the savings for the day, the patriotic Norwich motor | ists who remained at home can take the satisfact ction of feeling that they contributed saving of about 2,6o0 gallons, for the last tax list of the town gave an approximate registration here of 1000 autos and motorcycles. 1 Incidentally they have done their part
 towards derriviRg the oil lnagnates of
 the Sunday profit on 25.ooe.eo0 gal Ions of gasoline at ,25 or 30 cents per
 gallon, which is the estimated total for Sunday usage in the territory 2-
 fected by the order. And most impor- tant of all they have done what they could towards winning the war, which
 after all is the consideration most worth while
 1 Yet many local cars were seen eut
 on Sunday. While all Of them proba'
 bly, had an alihi that soothed theil
 conscience the appearances were against them in a number of cases Several auto truck loads of people
 were observed on their way to variou. l beaches several public service cars

 In canning from New London by troll
 ley the writer took the numbers Of forty cars OH the road but is glad to say that upon looking up the numbers finds that only six out of the number were owned by Norwich people, the re-
 mainder being out of town cars, There were many Rhode Island. Massaehu- setts and New York cars seen in town. Officer Michael Carroll. who directs Broadway remarked Sunday evening
 upon the small amount of traffic durs ing the day and further stated that nearly every other machine was of Rhode Island registry.
 Those that did ride on Sunday were constantly reminded that it was gas- cline day by the small boys who set 1 up the cry of Stacker whenever they [ saw an automobile. In some eases their epflien may have been justified but at the same time there were many people whose use of the automobile was necessity. In one case they found cut their mistake when the oe- cupants of large machine put on their uniform caps to show that they belonged to we'll known organization whose work they were on the way to 1 do.
 1 The auto-huSses plying between Nor wich and New London tebk day of
 which threw 8 large amount of traffic ] to the trolley company and forced | them to run many extras The public
 service cars at Mentville were all de- l ing business but their cause was s just oae as many people living in Pal mertown and other places distant 1 from the ear line use them daily.
 1 On the whole Nerwich's compliance with the government request is very creditable and if people will continue
 to conserve on gasoline many thous.
 ands of gallons will be saved right her'
 in the city.

Has Lost Ear and 5eed Badly Gut Up,
 But Goinq Back After Huns.

The following interesting letter has been received by Mrs. William H. Pot ter of Orient, L. l., from her son Irwin, a grand-nephew of Capt. Charles T. Potter of this city, and it. plainly in- dicates what plucky fighter he is:
 June IS, 1918. My Dear Mother:
 I am leaving the hospital tomorrow for duty again, and you can't realize how good feel, or the condition that 1 was in.
 Did you receive the letter that those Smith college girls wrote you? I ex- pect they put most everything in it. Well, it's all over now and r am so- ing back, and, believe me, you can bet there's going to be a dead Hun some where.
 I have some pictures taken and I will send them. Of course, they look awful but you see I had them taken with a lot of cripples. I am going to wait till I arrive in the U. s. before have new ear grafted on.. It's my left one and 1 certainly loog funny, for I am nothing but a bunch of scars, one about five inches long on my left face and a big one that went through my malor bone on cheek bone. There's one across my chest about eight and one-half inches and one on my back. Every body seems to think I was l lucky. l don't call it luck, but feel that it was the Lord who saved me. I i just heard about Burt, a fellow that's in his company is in the hospital and he said he was all right; that was the | last of May. I hope he don't ever suffer the way I have for the last two months. My arms are so stiff that can't raise them only about five inch es. But they'll Timber up later. How are all the folks? Give my l love to all and, mother, dear, take good care of yourself and see that father don't work too hard, for we may be home soon. One can never i tell. There's one thing sure, our boys are certainly proving what the United | States can do. We have plenty to eat and clothing. and what more could a person want these times? I must close From now on I'll be able to write once a week, so you will get a letter regu- 1 lar. Write often. Pray for us all.
 Love and kisses. Your son,
 IRWIN. 1 P. S.-I have six pieces of shell they took out of me and I am going to see if they will let me send them to you. ! Burt referred to in the letter was 8 brother of the writer whose death has since been reported.
