| About 200 members oi Seicheprey l Post No. 2, American Legion, and their wives attended the annual ban quet and dance of the organization last evening in Legion hall on North Main street. A turkey supper was served.
 Attorney Robert J. Stack presided as toastmaster and the first sneaker of the evening was Mayor John F.. Wade. He restricted his speech to a few appropriate remarks, during the course of which he promised Le- zion members that he would see that the interior of their rooms, To- cated in the city hall, is redecorated.
 State Commander-elect Kenneth c. Cramer of Hartford followed Mir Wade on the speakers stand and in his introductory remarks created a ripple of amusement by stating that it was Il usual to hear mayor or any other public official make a promise after election. Most of these promises were made during the campaign. Commander Cramer told of the activities of the American Legion and also gave 8 brief history of it's organization. He spoke of the difficulties encountered, what the or ganization had accomplished and mentioned specifically the fact that the Legion was now growing and prosperous, becoming more of power each year. Fractional differ ences which had existed at one time have been gradually ironed out. The Legionnaires in the country today numbered approximately S00,000 and within a short time it was expected that the membership throughout the United States would in short time equal one per cen of the population. He spoke briefly of the Connecticut department and informed his audi ence that at the present time there were over 500 members in the Nut meg state. It was expected that this numbr would be increased consider ably within the next year. He stat ed that many eX-service men, flush ed with the glory of victory, had joined the American Legion when it was started, believing that by so do- ing they could further their own selfish ambition, but upon finding that such was not the case, had re- linquished their m ,mbership. With their departure the Legion had start ed to, and at the present time was carrying out the high ideals, for which it was primarily organized, with less difficulty than ever before.
 Rev. F. L. Wismer. chaplain of seicheprey post, also delivered a few remarks, in which he mentioned particularly the high aims and ideals of the Legion. He believed that the members of the organization were fairly representative of the great body of ex-service men who had taken part in the world conflict.
 After the banquet and addresses dancing was enjoyed until midnight.

The captured German field howitzer secured from the United 1 States government was presented to the town of Plainville yesterday afternoon by Brock Barnes post, American Legion, as the high spot in the local celebration of Armistice Day. This gun. which was obtained through the kind offices of Governor John H. Trumbull, is placed in the center of the town green at the cor ner of Maple and Whiting streets and will remain there at least tenn porarily.
 The observance of the day began at 2 o'clock with parade through the principal streets of the town. The selectmen, Legion, Home Guard, Boy Scouts, school children and fire men marched, while the Legion la dies auxiliary. c. A. R., w. c. T. U., and Plainville Public Health Nurs- ing association rode in automobiles.
 The procession ended at the green, where a speakers stand had been erected. The New Departure band played The Star Spangled Banner" as the crowd gathered about the stand with barred heads. Past Commander Robert Craig of k-Barnes post was then intro duced by. Commander James Paul and explained that Armistice Day was primarily one of rejoicing at the conclusion of -four and a half years of he'll" Following the rendering of America the Beautiful" by the band and school children, the as sembly saluted the flag and then stood in silent tribute to the World war dead for 30 seconds Rev. A. A. Ball led in prayer, and the band played Nearer My God to Thee.' Rev. Charles s. Wyckoff, chaplain of Brock-Barnes post, made the speech of presentation and gave the howitzer to the town. While it was a grim and forbidding reminder of war. he said, 1t was not intended as a memorial to the conflict but was | meant to commemorate the deeds of | valor and spirit of sacrifice which | llle AIHeIlCdll peOple SHOWeu III those troublous times.
 In accepting the gift, First Select man John J. Kimmel regretted that | the present location of the weapon could not be permanent. At some fu- ture time, he said, the lot would have | to be used for other purposes, but until. then the cannon might remain where it is now located and later the town would endeavor to find a per manent location for it. He thanked the Legion for it's work in fixing up the green and for its gift of the howitzer.
 One verse of America" was sung, Chaplain Wyckoff pronounced bene- dction, and taps were sounded by bugler. The marchers then crossed to Legion hall, where luncheon was served to them.
 The Banquet
 The second annual joint banquet of the Legion and Home Guard was held in the Masonic temple in the evening and proved an even larger gathering than that of 1925. Con- mander Paul presided, while L. l.. Brastow showed himself very fine toastmaster. Rev. A. A. Ball offer- ed prayer at the beginning of the meal. Jacobs orchestra of New

Find Sweet
Clover Has Value

Experience has proven to $50
Roosevelt county farmers that a
sweet clover acreage is a very pro-
gressive move in building the
earning power of their farms ac-
cording to the last analysis and
rating made. They have found
that it is giving them a good bal
anced feed ration for milk cows
and growing animals, that it will
add the valuable supplement that
has always been lacking in a fat
tening ration. That is a pasture
it will increase the livestock car
rying capacity of their land; that
when cut for hay it always fur
nishes a dependable supply of high
class feed from a comparatively
small acreage. This experience
has further taught that where soil
blowing and soil fertility is a prob
lem it will add both soil fibre and
nitrogen and is very valuable in
that respect.
AS a result of this valuable ex-
perience that promises to be a fac
tor in developing the low cost
crop-livestock ration sweet clover
is destined to play an important
role. It's success on any farm is
unquestioned. It's feed value has
stood the test. The greatest mis-
take is made by not properly cur
ing the feed in order to get and
retain all the leaves as that is
where practically all the feed val
ne is concentrated.
This year a continuation of two
years work in increasing the acre
age in Roosevelt county will be
continued with a goal set for a
sweet clover acreage on 1000
farms with an increase of $50
farmers. A stabilzing factor in
the county's agriculture is a great
insurance in years such as 1919
20.
