a perfect substitute for calomel. It is
guaranteed to start your liver without
stirring you up inside, and can not

PAY FOR VICTORY,
PASSMORE URGES

E. Pusey Passmore, governor
of the Third Federal Reserve
Bank, made the following appeal
to the people of the district:
"This Fifth Liberty Loan Is
officially designated the Victory
Liberty Loan and is in financial
sense triumphant celebration OF
the consummation of our hopes
and prayers for the winning OF
the war and the preservation OF
our liberties. The ideals for
which this nation fought have
been vindicated on the field OF
battle and the money price OF
that victory, the greatest and
most momentous victory of all
history, must be paid promptly,
cheerfully and in full share.
"The portion Of this great loan
allotted to this district is $780,
100000, and yet no one complains
that it is too large, for what we
have done before, we can do
again; but it is a herculean task
and will take the best effort OF
the entire community.
"Out of our abundance the loan
must and will be subscribed here,
as it will be throughout the cOun-
try, but the maximum Of endea-
vor must be maintained 10 achieve
the success at which we aim.
1T is said Love Of Country
Leads Then the supreme duty
of the hour is clear and from now
on to the close Of the campaign
on May 10 let it not be said Of
one Of us that we We're not equal
to.it. We have proudly met the call
to duty in the past and we believe
our grateful citizens, putting pa
triotism and citizenship above all
else, will again write their record
big and clear in the name of those
who fought for us and in thanks
giving for the Victofy they helped
to win."

 The water behind the structure, which had been Durrosely held down to a level two feet below the top by the use of sluiceways, rose quickly when the gates were partially closed and, with a tremendous roar dashed over 800 tons Of coal daily, and Not including the major volume sweeping through the sluiceways, about 1,500 cubic feet of water q second were passing over the dam yesterday, the delivery from the Housatonic river being unusually rapid on account of the heavy rains last week. On the Oxford side of the dam, there is a point where the water rushes over a secondary drop with such force as to leave clear a space large enough for a. person to crawl underneath the water. The swirling waters throw off cons derabIe mist as they rush down stream. adding much to the scenic effect from a distance.
