NORWICH TOWN

The first fall meeting of the Norwich Town Mems league brought together a good number Monday evening at 7.SO o'clock at the First CongregationaI chapel. The speaker of the eHening was Charles P. Learned, who gave very in- teresting talk on Cloth Making.
 Prior to the meeting Rev. Gurdon F. Bailey entertained with three selections on Victrola.
 In the absence of the president and vice president, Henry T. Frazier, chairman of the executive committee, presided over the meeting. Dr. Charles H. Lamb sec retary and treasurer. read the minutes or the May meeting, also letter of acknow- ledgment from Philip A. Johnson, secre- tary and treasurer of the Norwich Rural association. thanking the Mems league for gift of $5 in the spring.
 During his talk MT. Learned exhibited number of kinds of raw wool taken right from the sheep, also mentioned the many places from which it came.
 When wool is received it contains 50 to 70 per cent. of grease, and a person must be very careful in selecting it to detect whether it is desirable or not. Often times linen received wool bucs are in the specinlen; the large burs come out nicely, but the smaller ones break uu and get into the carding machine and cause much trouble. Samples were shown iron, South America, Australia, Scotland, and cape wool from South Africa.
 In securing this wool it is placed in 6 trough 30 or 40 feet long and washed with soap and water, using rakes in the process. The speaker took small piece of cape wool and felted it in about two minutes by rubbing it up into ball with soap. This compact ball was passed around through the audience for inspec. ton. One would hardly believe how firm this could be from such procedure.
 Mir. Learned explained in full the process of cloth making with sketchep or blackboard as to machinery, displaying raw material and piece after piece oi the goods before being dyed, also many samples of finished cloth.
 He was given rising vote of thanks for his talk, which lasted about two | hours.

 FOR SENATORIAL NOMINATE.

Three candidates for state senator are said to be in the field for the repuDl;- can nomination in the 20th or Shoe string district, for which the convention has been called in Norwich at noon next Saturday by George H. Bradford of Montville, member of the state central committee.
 For some time past it has been gen. erally understood that Harry Griswod of Lyme would seek the nomination, and more recently it has been noised about that friends of William G. Park of Srrague will bring his name before the convention. MT. Park, it has been re- ported, does not personally seek the place but his friends are urging him to let them present his name.
 Judge Marion R. Davis of Mantle is the third candidate mentioned for the nomination with predictions that he will have strength enough to beat out the other two if a contest occurs in the con vention. He represented the town of East Lyme in the legislature of 1905.
