DANIELSON

a pulpit in DanielSon Sunday agamSt the dissertation of the Sabbath by vendors and gamblers and men who drink more now than they did before the advent of prohibition" was fully justified by facts, as one who cares to may find them in I, Danielson at this time may ascertain. As must have been patent to many peo- pie who ever carefully considered the prospects a perverted man will find those 1 who will serve him and his desires, and it is being demonstrated here if man 1 cannot buy the old-time intoxicants | there are substitutes more deadly still, 1 as freely available as spring water if one has the price, and that seems al- ways available The Jakey vendors are those against whom Sundays protest was directed and justifable criticism made of the fact that stores where the stuff is kept in stock are open on Sundays as well as weekdays.
 The fact is that prohibition is not working as effectively here as many had hoped Men continue to get drunk, beastly drunk, and the charge is that Jamaica ginger is the beverage used. There is trouble in the homes of the addicts to the vice. Women and chil dren are being made to suffer. Machine made virtue has not reached multitude who are drinking a liquid on which one can actually run an automobile. To many the situation is pitiful. To others it is mere phase of a transition period. The great majority to not even give the mat ter 8 passing thought.
 The critics point with sarcastic com ment to a situation they have long pre- dicted would come to pass. ''The sale of hops and malt is now barred" they say,
 but We must be rid of the apple and
 the grape and all know the possibilities that rest in such terrible materials as
 corn and rye and molasses and sugar and certain meals
 Truly, this must be "a transition pe-
 riod." The trouble is that thousands of people in territory hereabouts are insist ing on delaying the game and laugh at the restraining legisla tion made to curb them. Youth as well as hardened man i is affected in the present period of de- i bauchery and the youth that drinks an
 intoxicant today is taking his initiatory 1 on beverages that would make beer or i whiskey look like innocent connections, 1 charge against these banned fluids what
 one may.
 A special meeting of citizens of the | borough this (Monday) evening will pass upon the matter of making a small ap- i propriatio nto meet part of the expenses | incurred in the observance of Armistice 1 day. As the sum asked for is not large | it was indicated here on Sunday that ii would be authorized without any serious i opposition, as was the case at the recent
 special town meeting.
 X new Catholic chapel will be opened 1 Sunday next at Warrenxille, in the towr | of Eastford. for the accommoda ton ot the approximately 500 Catholics who art

 The residence known as the wrigh | place. next to the Baptist church, wa, purchased some time ago and the uppe
 floor has been entirely remodeled for us as a chapel. Heretofore masses havt
 been said in Bakers hall
 Father Ginet has received the gift 0
 an altar for the new chapel and is busy
 ing himself, this week in an effort to To ] cate from some source about 100 chair needed to meet the seating requirement of the new place of worship. The chair are needed in time to he taken to War renville for next Sundays service. Use chairs will be acceptable to the arden pastor of St. James, who has expende great effort for more than year in mak ing it possible for the several hundre Catholics in the isolated section wher the new chapel is to be opened to atten ' out a real effort in missionary wor right here in Windham county, Fathe Ginet is arousing the real lively interes of many and this effort, it is hoped b } Catholics here, will result in solving tn problem of seats within a day or two. The new chapel is 45 feet in lengt and will make a satisfactory place fo holding services until such time as new church may be built at Warrenvill James B.
