GET TYPHOID FROM
 POLLUTED SPRING
Workmen Employed in West Hartford Drink Impure Water

After several weeks of investiga- tion the local board of health finally has ascertained the cause of the threatened epidemic of tyephoid fever which had the local halth officials alarmed for some time.
 Dr. Fred T. Lee. superintendent of health, conducted several investiga- tions when several cases of tyephoid suddenly developed with in few days of each other in different sections of the city. Samples were taken of milk from the plant of every local dealer and were tested. Ice cresSl was tested and various foodstuffs from restaurants. Even the city drinK- ing water was tested but no evidence ot typhoid were discovered.
 Finally the discovery was made that the patients were in all cases men who were employed in Hartford The state health department was mo- tifed and ascertained that number of Hartford men also were sick with typhoid. All the men stricken were found to be employed on the con- struction of the foundation for a house in West Hartford
 Further investigation revealed the fact that the men had been in the habit of drinking watr from a nearby spring. The spring was found to be polluted from a street sewer under drain. A nearby swimming pool also is thought to have contributed to the deadly effects of the water the work men were drinking.
 Dr. R. w. E. Alcott, health officer of West Hartford, has posted mo- tice at the spring, calling attention to the fact that the water Is dangerous

(Continued From First Page.)

w. H. Blodgett offered the rules committee report and explained each change in the present rates. The report was adopted.
 A rule covering the Orange West Haven situation was offered giving each town an equal representation in delegates-four each. Judge Hall of West Haven objected because a 15,- 900 community ought to be better represented than rural community of 1,500. Hall moved to table the rule. Yea and nay votes were twice doubt ed, but the doubt was withdrawn and debate on the rule opened.

That's all! But as yet the leader does not ap
pear. No great corporation as yet fails to get the
best of the bargain if it can when making terms
with labor. No labor organization as yet has
considered the employing interest before it's own.
And if you ask Why the answer is plain; because
men are selfish, because men dstrust each other,
because experience has proved to each that neither
is wholly to be trusted.
Then the answer, the real answer, is an incu-
cation of spirit of unselfshness, and spirit of
trust. In other Words all those who stand in
church and admit the Fatherhood of God, must
stand in factory, at bench, beside desk, in bank,
IN farm, railroad, and in mines, and practice the
Brotherhood of Man. Then and not until then,
will the leader arise who will make capital and
abor truly fraternal instead of opponents,

The Brewers And The Last Eght

A drowning man will grab at anything, and SO
It is with the brewers because they are fostering
sinking cause. No chance of comeback for
these fellows, but their faith is astonishing. Their
pers'stency is to be commended. They attempted
to ride the Soldier Bonus Bill throug h Congress,
hut lost out. They have tried various other
schemes in their efforts to modify the Volstead
Act to permit the sale Of light wines and beer,
but some fellow calls them on every hand. While
they are Offering every conceivable argument that
they can scrape up, that is at all favorable to their
cause We wish to direct your attention to the few
facts quoted below:
In 1915, the last full wet year, the total con.
sumption per capita Of all liquors and wines was
ldlS gallons OF this amount 1913 gallons copsti.
tuted malt liquors; while so gallons constituted
distilled spirits whisky; and 40 constituted

height In 1914, the per capita consumption was
1"oS gallons Of beer out Of 2266 gallons of all
liquors, including Wines while LA gallons con.
Httuted distilled spirits
The brewery interests state that thew are
opposed to opening saloons again for the purpose
OF selling whisky. Of course we all believe this.
They claim that light wines and beer are harm.

are mountaineering. It's funny that they have
manufactured these beverages so long and have
never tried them ont The above statistics were

Pusheys Needed

The Chamber of Commerce has been reorgan-
ized This is, Or at least should be, good news to
every citizen of Arcadia, and every citizen should
feel the responsibility of very important part
they nave to play in this organization. 1t was
the leaders that called the meeting and caused
the reorganization, and the success of their effort
will be determined by the number of pushers that
fall in line 1t is true that followers are at sea
in any movement without leader and it is just as
true that leader is at sea in any movement with.

commercial or civic organization can do in town.
We know this because it has been proven time
after time in other towns. The greatest knocker
a town can have is the fellow that is always say.
ing, 81 know it can't be done here, because have
seen it trie1 too many times before" He is in as
bad shape as fellow who is sick and wont call
the doctor because he knows the doctor can't do
him any good.
Now let's join the "Pusher Department" of the
Arcadia Chamber Of Commerce, and start out
with this fact fixed in our mind, it can be done in
Areadia! When man begins task and is con.
WINGED that it is going to end unsuccessfully he is
sure not to be disappointed. So let's not drown
the Chamber of Commerce with cold water by
saying, "lt can't be DONE"
We can't all be leaders, but those who are not
leaders can be pushers. We can speak word of
encouragement, we can lend hand when called
upon, and if we can't boost we can remain silent
and give the fellow that is trying a chance.
Give some Of your time, little of your money
and little thought to this organization and in
