EXPECT TROLLEY TIEUP
 BY FOURTH OF JULY

Reports current in the city on Sum day that strike of the trolleymen of the Shore Line Electric Railway company would probably take place on Tuesday or Wednesday were stated on Sunday night by Harry F. McGlone to
 be without foundation as far as the
 date of strike. as he said that no
 strike vote had yet been taken.
 Conductors and motormen on. the cars, however. were reported to be
 discussing in a quiet way their ex- pectation that the road would be tied up by rhe Fourth of July.
 President McGlone said that the men had received a communication from the company that seemed to indicate very little possibility of a settlement being reached over the demands that the men have made for new wage | schedule to replace the schedule that was in force up to the first of June. MT. McGlone indicated that the possi- | bility of arbitration had passed and | said that there would be no arbitra- ton.
 The entire Shore Line trolley system | from Webster to New Haven and in- cluding also the Westerly. line is in- l volved in the new wage demands

FEDERAL JOB TO ENFORCE DRY LAW

Local police authorities will look upon the enforcement of the wartime prohibition law as a matter for fed- era1 officials, and will take no notice if any saloon keepers of the city de- eide to open their places of business on Tuesday. July 1.
 This was what Prosecuting Attor- ney Lee Loy Robbins said Sunday night would be his attitude in the matter, as the law was federal one and the state of Connecticut had passed no legislation on the sub- ject.
 Police Chief George Linton said Sunday afternoon that he would be very glad to receive directions or in structions from some proper au- thority as to what he might be exA pected to do, but as things stood now he did not expect to issue any orders to the officers to make any arrests ln case they found saloons open and doing business Tuesday.
 Attorney Earl Mathewson is the United States commissioner for this district under whose jurisdiction in- fractions of the federal laws fall. but he has not yet received any instruc- tions from the government ot the part he may be expected to take or the means to be used to see that the war time prohibition law is enforced. What the proprietors will do seems to be a question. though the predic- tion was made Sunday night that most of them would keep closed and

were now considering that their bus mess would take an enforced summer vacation of six or seven weeks with the expectation that they resume business again when President Will son acts after the army demobiliza tion has been declared complete. One proprietor pointed out that he did not want to face a federal prosecution for doing business without 2 federal license showing that the internal rev. enue tax due July 1 had been paid. The law provides that no one can do business unless they have this li- cense to show and no such licenses have been issued this time in return for payments of the tax. Instead of the usual license, the internal revenue collector has issued receipts 10 surh proprietors as have forwarded him their checks for the tax.
 The local Eauor dealers association has called a meeting for this fMon- day) afternoon, at which doubtless they will receive the latest informa tion to be given them by the state as- sociation and will decide upon what they will do about Tuesday.
 In anticipa tion of the coming dry time, large sale in bottled liquors was reported Saturday night. though the desire to clean out their stock has not resulted in any pronounced re. drction in prices, apparently, it wa: stated by those who were stocking III their private cellars.

WHISTLES, BELLS AND
 BONFIRE FOR PEACE

Bells and whistles in every section of Norwich heralded the news of the signing of the peace terms by the representatives of the allied nations and Germany on Saturday afternoon, and the celebration was carried on until late in the evening by the local Boy Scouts who had huge bonfire on Union square.
 The Associated Press despatch an- nouncing the news from the Hall of Mirrors. Versailles, was received in Norwich about eleven o'clock Satur- day morning. The city officials inn mediately got busy and decided to hold a demonstration at o'clock in the afternoon.
 The big whistle at the United States Finishing company plant in Greeneville was the first to start blowing and was quickly followed by whistles at other points. church bells, the court house bell and school bells. The school bell at the Falls rang for over a quarter of an hour.

All through Satur- day afternoon they were actively at work collecting boxes that were given them by the business houses in the center of the city which they stacked up in big pile near the curb in front of the Central Baptist church to wait for the time when they could start their fire.
 At S3o though it was still daylight they could wait no longer and the first i pile of boxes was touched off at tht l spot where they had been stacked uI 1 in the center of the square.

GIVES ADVICE AS TO
 FORMING RIGHT HABITS

Seldom has there been more enthu l siasm at the Y. NJ. c. A. Get To- 1 gether'' than was manifested Sun l day afternoon At 5S0 o'clock the l lections, and accompanied the singing that fol. wed, the sailors, civilians and ladies wno served all entering hearti- ly into the song service.
 Prayer was offered by A. S. Knowl- es, the "Y'' boys secretary, after which Allyn L. Brown delivered an address that held the closest possi- ble attention of the entire audience He selected as his topic, Choices and Habits He emphasized the great need of forming the right kind of habits, mentioning the habits of thrift, honesty and purity. and said that when young man was tempted to be dishonest. if he had formed the habit of honesty, he resisted the temp tation to be dishonest and won the. victory over the temptation; when a fellow has to combat the temptation to be impure, if only he has through the years formed the habit of purity, he is buttressed by the habit and the re-
 suit is that he is a victor instead of victim.
 The power of a bad habit is just as strong as that of good habit, and if man has developed the bad habits, when the test comes he goes down in failure and loses out. Theodore Roosevelt was splendid example of the habit of choosing the right and sticking to it until the victory was 1 won; in several cases MT. Roosevelt demonstrated that he was unafraid to i do the right thing even though it 1 might cost him popularity On one i occasion when a delegation of labor
 men asked of him a favor, they said 1 You are not going back on labor
 are you?" His reply was, T will do 1 anything for labor but that which is wrong." In closing, I want to urge | you to choose Jesus Christ, who can 1 and will help you to develop habits 1 that are right; we read in John 3:1e, ] that God so loved the world that he
 gave His only begotten son, that 1 whosoever believeth in Him. might 1 not perish but have everlasting life.'' This is the essence of the gospel and
 it is certainly wonderful how God loves us; no matter how bad we have been
 in life, He will forgive us if we will
 come to. Him in penitence" The au- | dience applauded the speaker. At the l conclusion of the address the n,e4, 1 sang heartily, Pass Me Not, Con 1 tie Savior after which the t.- 1 dies or the GreeneVIlle churches un- l der the leadership of Mrs. s. s. La i throp served a fine lunch of sandwich es. cake and coffee which was par i taken of with gratitude by the men. Just as the men finished eating General Secretary Edwin Hill intro, duced Galen Fisher, the national "Y' i secretary of Japan. who dropped il for few moments. Mir Fisher tolt briefly of the Japanese army in Si
 heria.. and of the work of the "Ret Triangle for them which was enjoyed
 ny the entire army. He closed by ex
 tending the greetings of Japan to tn
