BASE WILL
 OBSERVE NAVY DAY, OCT. q

Secretary of the Navy Denby has designated Friday. Oct. 27. as Navy Day and orders all ships and navy yards to observe the day as a holiday as far as the officers and enlisted personnel are concerned. Information to this effect was given out at the submarine base Wednesday. All routine. drills, exsr- ciseg, etc, will be suspended and ail ships of the navy will full dress ship. Definite details regarding the local base activities will be announced later, when definite plans have been worked out.
 In designating the day for special celebration, Secretary Denby says in his circular letter to all the fleets:
 The navy rendered vital service to the nation and to humanity during the World war No great fleet action WI. fought to give spectacular emphasis to it's vital contribution to the victory. BuT the convoy the anti-submarine patr ol the mine barrage were essential factors in the winning of the war and the saF- ing of civilization. So it has been In every crisis of our history-the nary has not failed. In the Revolution. the War of 1872. the Civil war. the Span !sh-American war victory without the navy would have been virtually impos- sible. Today our peace and prosperity are safeguarded by the navy. It is an agent of stability in a troubled world. It carries no threat. but 1t lends authority to Americas voice. speaking for altru- ism, justice and law.
 On Navy Day we would celebrate the consecration to duty of the personnel of the present navy. the glorious services rendered to the nation by the navy of the past We would emphasize it's unity with every interest and activity of the national life. It is good for the people to stop moment and consider what ha $ caused the nations prosperity and greatness The navy has played no small part in the progress of America to it's present state and influence.
 Those who proposed the celebration of Navy Day. who urge upon you what they believe to be an opportunity of pa triotic service are advocates of peace They believe in and support the policy of reduction Of armaments by agreement but reject as absurd the fatuity of dis armament by example. Living in s world of reality they would foster the instrument of their security while look ing forward the realization of the idea not vet attained when the only secu-- ity needed by mankind shall rest in the hearts and minds of men and nations

HONOLULU CLUB STUDYING
 CONNECTICUT MOTOR LAWS

In an effort to bring about an inn provement in the motor vehicle laws of Hawaii, the board of governors of the Automobile Club of Honolulu has begun study of the laws of Connecticut and other states considered to be advanced in such legislation.
 The Connecticut motor vehicle depart ment has been requested by the Honolu- lu organization to state whether auto mobiles are taxed here according to weight, factory price or horsepower i; whether personal property tax is as- sessed additionally by the state; whetn- CT Connecticut charges fee for an op- rator's license; whether this state charges a fee for annual renewal of number plates; and information con- corning the gasoline tax which was levied by the last session of the legis- lature.
 The system of determining motor ve- hicle registration fees by computation of the total piston displacement has been in operation III Connecticut less than a year. having been adopted by the 1921 session of the legislature. As the mem bers of next session of the legislature will not be elected until November. it is impossible yet to gain an adeouate idea of what changes in the motor vehi- ele laws, if any, will be proposed by them in January. Commissioner Rob bins B. Stoeckel made the statement at a recent New Haven meeting that, If the motor vehicle department made any recommendations for changes in the fees, It would be for downward revision.

MoNrvILLE ROY STOOD WELL
 IN DAIRY JUDGING CoNTE

Reports have just been received at the New London County Farm Bureau office as to the standing which the boys of this county made in the dairy judg- ing contest at the Hartford fair on Sept. :. Five boys went on the New London County Farm Bureau team an1 took part in the contest in which boys from six other counties were also pres ent. Of these five boys, Austin Lathrop of Montville stood first with otai score of 59S points. John Kahn of Franklin was second with sco'o of 4Ss points: George Woods of Water points Everett Wade and Sylvester Wade of srrague, had 3so and S65 points respectively.
 Five different classes of dairy an. mals were judged which included Ayr shires. Guernseys Holsteins and Guern- sey cows were judged on the farm of !. W. Alsop of Avon. Professor A. R. Merrill and Professor G. c. White of the Connecticut Agricultural College, were the judges in charge of the con test, while A. J Brundage, the state club leader, was in charge of arrange ments
 The total scored by the New London county team was l,4S1 points. Only the three highest men were included in this average Five other counties were ahead of New London with points as follows: Middlesex. 1,74s; Fairfield, l. 1.734; Hartford. 1,'so Litchfeld 1,649 :: New Haven 1888, Holland county had 1.47O and windhan county had no team entered
 This Is not considered g Tow score by any means since the New London county boys were younger than any 1f the other teams and they did not ha ye the advantage of being trained by a county club leader as was the case in the five. leading counties.
 The five highest scoring men il this contest were as follows: Erwin Kelsey, Middlesex, 62s; Gordon c. Willoughby Hartford, 5s5 : Frank Hopkins Fairfehl 591 Robert Wetmore, Litchheld, 5SI; Donald Darling, Hartford. 5S5.
