 request the assistance of the fair

 termine at what point price be-
 comes unreasonable When case of
 violation of this character has been
 established, I shall immediately insti-

 Tho penalty for violation of this
 section is s5,0eo fine or two years in-

 Second: The law forbids fioarding of

 CTS Heafding by hoaseh6lders is de- fined as the hoarding or contracting
 for any necessaries by any person in quantity in excess of his reasonable requirements for use and consump- tion by himself and dependents for a reasonable time. For household pur- poses, the having on hand of more than a thirty days supply of any ar ticle of food of which there is likely to be a shortage will be deemed prime facie hoarding. Hoarding f6r a deal- CT is the holding or arranging for a l quantity of neceSsaries similarly in eX- l cess of the requirements of his bus mess, provision being made for the 1 hoarding of nss'essaries produced ir surplus quantities seasenally, which
 may be stored against the period oi scant or no production. The statute | makes it my duty to institute hbe proceedings for condemnation o1
 hoarded necessaries. hope and be. lieve that it will be unnecessary foi me to exert this. power. I know tha' ! the citizenship of Connecticut will CD. | operate in the vital task of maintain. 1 ing an equable distribution of th,
 available food supply, but especially | in view of possible shortages at thi! particular time, I deem it rny duty ! to warn heuseholders and dealers alik, that violations of these provisions vii | be punished.
 The penalty for violation of thi

 an abstract from a circular letter to 1 the branches of the Needlework Guild | of America which was read at the meeting:
 At a meeting of the board of dfrec- l tors of the Needlework Guild in Phil l adelphia, October Sth. it was decided | to suggest to the branches that the l guild furnish a Christmas tree for the l people of St. Quentin, the local ar engagements to be perfected by our l foreign representative.

 The Christmas tree is to be placed
 in St. Quentin in some central suita ble place and garments arriving in time will be placed on it. If the wea-
 ther permit the tree will be in the
 open air and carols sung as in our
 great cities. and if electriicty is in-
