NEAR EAST RELIEF DRIVE .
 WEEK DECEMBER 10th
North Canaan Must Raise $500 to Support Fifteen
 Orphans
PRESIDENT APPE AIS
Designates Next Sunday As Near East Day" to Open Organized
 Drive for Funds

President Harding has addressed an appeal to the governors of the states for the observance of next Sunday, December 3, as 'Near East Emergency Day" He suggested that through cooperation with the may ors of cities and other public and civic authorities the day be observ- ed with the special purpose of direct ing attention to the need for sub stantial relief through the Ameri- can organization established for that end
 "The need as revealed iE the latest cable reports from Grecian territory and the Near East far exceeds all previous calculations made for the relief of this crisis" the appeal said. "The response to date has been alto gether inadequate. I am sure the people of the United States will grasp the magnitude and pathos of a situation involving the absolute known destitution of over 1,25O,0OO women, children and old men.
 "I therefore make this supplement tai appeal, at this season of Thanks giivng for Gods blessing, for, the human beings who are sufferers in the stricken area.
 'I request the governors, mayors, business and philanthropic organiza- tions and all other citizens of the United States to hold this tragedy in mind during Thanksgiving week, and appeal again to you to make response equal to the emergency and worthy of the generous, heart and the humanitarian spirit of our great republic.
 "That this may be organized and definite, I hereby designate Sunday December 3, as a special day of mass meeting in our cities and the climax of this appeal extra ordinary"
 The drive for funds in thiss town will begin December 70th and cen tinue for one week. North Canaaa's GGota is $500, which will be required to care for the fifteen orphans dnriar tue coming year. T: sufering in the different countries devastnA by the T.lrKs latest exploitation. is most acute and 1t is hoped the people of our town will respond III the same generous manner as before.

BUSINESS IMPROVEMENT
 NOT YET GENERAL
Only HalS of Business World Affected, Says
 Roger Babson
I'M PORT ANT FACTS
Market Affected by Wall Street
 DiScounting Successive Business Steps

Roger W. Babson today called at tention to very important fact in dischssing the general industrial re- vival .t.4
 Expressions hit the country very much like storms" says MT. Babson, 'and just as they affect different To- calities of the country in regular se- quence they also affect the different divisions of our business world in different degrees and at different times.
 "The fact that a depression ordin- arily starts in the Northeast works South and West, finishing it's course in California, is clearly evident from statistical study of the situation. If we look at the busness world we find it dividing itself into four big divisions and we find that the business depression traces it's regular course thru this industrial fabric.
 First, there is the Raw Materials Group, or iron and steel companies, coppers and oils, crop and live stock producers. Second there is the Transportation Group, the railroads and steam ships. Third, there is the Manufacturing Group with its auto mobile factories, textile mills and the other fabrfcators of finished pro- ducts. Fourth, and finally there is the Distribution Group headed by the wholesale houses, mail order firms, chain stores, and finishing with the multitude of retail estab- lishments. IL& r
 |Now what happens to these Big Four Groups when a business de- pression hits the country? The first to suffer is the Manufacturing Group. This is partly the result of financial stringency. Take the re- cent depression, it appeared first among shoe factories, textile mills, and other factories. Tn a broad way these are concentrated in the North east section of, the country, and it was exactly in this region that trouble first, appeared. This was entirely characteristic. It is what ''&r0ened also in earlier periods of business depression. Farsighted exc cutiyes foresaw long in advance, that this would be the first part of the co2ntry to weaken, because it is the home of the Manufacturing Group.
 '"Then comes the next act in the drama of depression. As the logical result of cuetailed manufacturing, we geta slGnnp in the Raw Materials Group. When "a shoe factory shuots 3own, orders for leather shrinK. When textile mill closes, demand Scr cottonfand wool lies down. So the initial weakness in chs Northeast spreads to ,rhe. West and the South.

LEROY SMITH MIRACULOUSLY
 ESCAPES ELECTROCUTION
Was Working on Tower Carry ing High Tension Wires
 at Time
FALLS THIRTY FEET
Carrying Grounding Stick Which Came in Contact With Wire
 Carrying 44,OO0 Volts

That Leroy Smith, employed by the Connecticut Power Co.,, as a line man, is alive today is nothing less than miraculous. Working. on a tower just south of Falls Village carrying high tension wires to Thom- aston and Bristol, he came in con- tact with a wire carrying 44,0OO volts and was knocked a distance of thirty feet to the ground. Members of the gang with whom he was work ing expected to find him dead, but after being unconscious for an hour he sat up and wanted to stand.
 Smith with other members of the gang were working on one of the towers and were preparing to ground one of the wires. Roy was hugging close to the tower to keep as far as possible from the wires, carrying a grounding stick, which is about five feet long with copper hook on one end and wire for attaching to the tower~on the other end. NHe was warned by one of his companions to be careful and a moment later the stick came in contact with a wire which caused an immense arc and Smith fell to the ground unconscious.
 First aid was rendered by members of the gang and Drs. Sellew and Cobb hastilya summoned. An exam ination disclosed that he was alive and after about an hour he regained consciousness. He was hurried to the House of Mercy at - Pittsfield where an Xray| examination will be made to determine his injuries.
 Previous to his entering the eml- ploy of the Conn. Power Co.,, Roy" sls he was popularly known, was em- ployed as chauffeur for several years by J. c. Roraback. During the World War he entered the aeroplane service, enlisting at New Haven and being ordered to Kelly Field, Texas, Later he saw service ih England for several months and tn en was trans ferred to France. His home is in where his father, step mother and several brothers and sisters reside.
 At the Pittsfeh hospital Wednes- day morning an Xray examination showed that no bones were broken. Both arms and one hand are severe iy burned and he is suffering from internal injuries, the extent of which will be unknown for several days. The doctors caring for him state that he is as comfortable as possible under the circumstances and is apparently getting along well.

EXCHANGE SAVINGS STAMPS
Purchasers of Stamps Urged to Buy
 Treasury Certificates

''It is to be hoped that every per son who can do so will exchange War Savings Stamps, soon to fall due, for Treasury savings certificates" said Postmaster Roberts. "The large amount of money invested and the great number of persons who pur- chased war savings stamps showed that the people of this county could save money when the necessity arose. Now, if they will take the money they saved when they bought stamps to aid the government in the prose cution of the war and buy Treasury savings certificates, they will dem onstrate that the thrift lessons of the war have not been without effect.
 The holders of war savings stamps have seen investments of about $20.- 50 grow to $25> in five, years, and larger amounts in the same propor- tion. They can see the same thing repeated if they reinvest in Treas ury savings certificates. Interest accuIhulates at the rate of 4 per cent each year, compounded semi annually. These savings certificates are exempt from the normal Federal income tax, and from all State and >local taxation (except estate and in- heritance taxes), and may be held to the amount of $5,O00, maturity val ue, for each issue, by every member of family. They are backed by the credit of the United States Govern ment. and afford an easy and Sure method of saving"

KIMBLE's NARROW ESCAPE
While Hunting Recently in the
 Wilds of Norfolk

George Kimble one of a band of mighty Waterbury hunters who va cationed by camping out in the wilds of Norfolk, had a narrow escape from serious injury while iw the woods. George was kicked by a jack rabbit, nearly as big as a moose, according to the, possibly truthful statements of Jim Shantry and Oliver Yorke, other members of the expedi- ton.
 Shantry ''took a book along" on Natural History so that he could study the habits of coons, his early education on this important subject having been neglected, and Yorke is still at large, having successfully evaded arrest for speeding.
 One evening when the boys re- turned to camp, they were consider ably excited when they discovered a skull and cross bones painted on the door. Red raspberry jam was used for the painting.
 Various theories were advanced as to who placed the sign on the door and the question might have remain ed a mystery had not Kimble, who is better versed on tracks than Shan try, discovered Ford tracks" in the camp. He declared, Holmes like, that none other than Jack Sherwood's car had made these tracks and we hear his guess was good one, for Jacks "war horse" was seen in that vicinity about that time. Jack was probably in search of form 2s0-A covering the hunting job they were on.
 Our good hunters found plenty of coon and brought out of the woods one 24 pounder, among che largest ever caeght in the good coon hunt ing z. ny around NorfolE.-Tele- phone 3 .lletin.
