GLENDALE
By PAUL PRY

At last the religious fever among our
people has been aroused and large con-
gregations gather nightly to renew their
faith in no uncertain manner, and many
have professed to have found peace.
Many of the converts are of mature age,
and head of families who must know
what they want and need, and how to
keep, and enjoy it. Among those are O1lr
only son, which brings great joy, to the
heart of the old father and mother, and
great is the fond hopes of our beloved
OLD pastor, whose joys knows no bounds.
! Last week there suddenly appeared two
strange women evengelists, and with
/ their sweet strains from the violin, and
lovely voices brought a wonderful revival
spirit to the church. They disappeared
as mySteriously as they came but left a
great impression with the people, the end
OF Which is nowhere in sight.
IN our last letter we stated that Mrs.
Maggie Williams was suffering from an
atfectiOn in the throat, and that Dr. I,of-
land was attending her. Now it appears
there is another Mrs Maggie Williams
who is greatly disturbed, and makes a
frank denial. We beg of Mrs B. II. viii
Ifams our forgiveness for the error and
hope her heart is easy, with this simple
explanation. Mrs. B. +. Williams is in
perfect health, we say this for the bene-
nt OF her numerous friends, who called

While little Robert Nier was playing
oH the street, on Monday, he fell and
split his upper lip.
MI. ana Mrs. Harvey CoVerdale are
now moving to Milford. where he is
building on his lot recently purchased as
part of the Huttenlock farm. We all re-
gret to lose Mr.. and Mrs. CoverdaIe. as
they are good neighbors.
On Friday evening about supper time a
IRE alarm was sounded and everybody /
Went scurry1ng around to find the fire, /
and it was soon learned that George |
Reeds chimney was on fire. and great !
volumes of smoke and flames were speed- /
ing high into the air. The firemen re-
sponded, and Luther Shockley, one Of the /
ladqer men, ascended the roof with a
bucket of salt, and while in a dangerous
position threw the salt down the CHM
new which smothered the flames, then a
lew buckets Of water finished the Job.
Then Luther Shocl1ley was acclaimed
nero, and highly praised for his bravery. /
The firemen have installed in their
new firemen's hall, pool table, for the
moral entertainment Of the young fire.

HAzEN TALKS ON THE
 LOCAL WATER PROBLEM
(continued from First Page)

en million dollars was spent last year in 476 cities in municipal recreation.
 Miss Richards stated that 1t is dur ing the leisure hours that boys and girls have that they often get into trouble. With the aid of an all year round recreation center it has been possible to take up the time of the boys and girls by providing them with suitable places. to meet and giving them entertaining instructions.
 She thought that the schools Of the city could be used to better advantage in the evenings as community centers rather than to remain idle. Miss Richards asked for and received the Rotary endorsement upon plan for the development of the city's play ground system.
 President Leon Sprague gave a short address of welcome to Frederick M. Holmes, Ernest w. Christ, Stanley R. Eddy, S. P. Strople, William Muel- Ter and Clarence H. Barnes, who were admitted as new members of the Ro- tary club this noon. Two solos were sung by Mrs. Clara Birnstein follow ing the luncheon.
 Samuel Ferguson, vice-president of the Hartford Light company, was an- nounced as the speaker for next week. He will talk on the Canadian water system
