Few Flowers for Decorations.
A committee of Sedgwick women's Re-

no flowers to make the 500 more bouquets
that are needed
The committee issued an urgent call
for everyone who can to bring flowers tc

the shortage may be made UP and the
required number Of bouquets for al

MINISTERS THINK PULPIT
NOTICES GROW TOO 1rANv

At recent meeting of the Norwich
Ministerial association those present ex-
pressed the opinion that the calls made
on the pastors Of the city to give no
tees of various kinds from the pulpit
were far to numerous and in many
cases wholly unnecessary as the press
is usually willing to give wide publicity
to any worthy object.
1t is not uncommon for the clergy to
be asked to give notice of and make an
appeal for four or five different objects
on the same Sunday and thus a large
portion Of the brief time for the service
is given up to these outside matters.

j. Henry Harrison, prosecuting at

he was at loss TO understand the
grounds on which the New York Gov
ernor based his decision. He added -
II desire to say that the minutes Of

the Governors decision, in that the wit

insisted that there appears to be n uues-
