 tain Last Night

R. Spicacci was elected president, c. Pasternak of Manchester, vice-president and c. J. Velte of Waterbury, secretary and treasurer.
 A league is to be formed at once for weekly or bi-monthly tourna- ments. The above cities are likely to enter a team as are also Bridge port, New Haven and Winsted. 9th CTS interested should ge in touch with the secretary.
 The state championship match will most likely be played in Water- bury at the Y. M. C. A. in conjunc- ton with the state checker cham pionship tournament on Good Frid- day and Saturday. This is the first attempt to bring together the best talent of the state.

 Patrolman Joseph Phelan was called and after a short chase Watt was captaured. He offered no resist ance to the policeman. Monday Harry A. Krasow. who represented the accused. requested continu- ance. intimating that his client was still affected by his drinking and experiences.
 To-day the case was contested with the accused taking the stand that he was under the influence of liquor and did not remember what happened.
 In view of his past experiences, Judge T. V. Meyer remarked that 1t was very evident that Watt had failed to profit by the jail sentence he received in superior court.

Wise To Head 1881
 Jewish Relief Fund
Appointment Announced By Felix M. Warbmg, Chair
 man of the Joint Distribution Committee

New York City, Jan 16.-Rabbi Jonah B. Wise, of the Central Syna- gogue of New Tor city, will head the national campaign to raise funds for the 1881 budget of the joint distribu- tion committee, it was announced yesterday by Felix M. Warburg, chairman of the organization. Rabbi Wise's appointment, as chairman of the effort to raise sufficient funds to carry on relief and reconstruction among the eight million Jews in eastern Europe, was formally an- nounced in letter which MT War dred Jewish leaders in the various communities of the country.
 In his letter to the Jewish lead- CTS of America announcing Rabbi Wise's acceptance of the leadership in the new joint distribution commit tee drive, MT Warburg pointed out that the condition of European Jewry is in such a deplorable state that continued aid is necessary to sustain them.
 Although we, with your help and the help of other American Jewish leaders," he stated, have accom- plished what might be considered q herculean task for suffering Euro pean Jewry during the past sixteen years, we find that the plight of our people overseas, and especially in eastern European countries is so de- plorable that we are compelled to continue our assistance to them.
 "The joint distribution commit tee, which has assumed this re- sponsibility since 1914, must ask American Jewry again to give it sufficient funds to carry on it's pro- gram permitting a minimum of re- lief and reconstruction work that will at least help sustain the lives of eight millions of Jewish men, wo- men and children to whom life is seemingly hopeless struggle for the, bare necessity of living.
 During the sixteen years of our activity we have aided Jewry the world over. Wherever our people were in need, we came to their aid.

We distributed food to the starving, provided medical care, clinics and hospitals for the sick, maintained schools for the growing generation, set up loan associations for the un- established colonization facilities for the declassed-in short we did whatever was possible within our means to make life livable for those who have been suffering priva- tion since the World war and longer. What we have undertaken, we must carry on; we cannot-dare not stop. Our people need us now as never before and, whatever our sit uation may be at this moment, it is nothing as compared with the lot of those in eastern Europe"
 Rabbi Wise. minister of one of the important congregations in New York, was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, son of the late Rabbi Isaac M. Wise, founder of reform Judaism in Amer ica and also of the Hebrew Union

TEACHERS ASKED
TO ORGANIZE FOR
i AID TO CHILDREN
Head Of National Body Says
Present Needs Rival
Those Of War

Teachers in districts where condi-
tionS are bad were urged to make
plans to extend immediate aid to
school children In q message received
by Miss Bertha M. Palmer, state SUI
perintendent Of public instruction,
from Florence Hale, president Of the
National Education association.
Miss Hale asked that early planning
be done to anticipate and prevent
worse disasters in areas where chill
dren appear to be in need.
The message reads:
I'VE note with pride that teachers
hre organized in hundreds Of places
to aid in carrying out the relief plans
of the Presidents National and State
Committees. Schools are also prepar-
ing to provide food and clothing for
children who could not otherwise at
tend school. This reminds us Of the
achievements Of teachers during the
World war in doing more than any
other agency could 10 to make q sue
cess of the food conservation move
ment, to render aid to the liberty loan
campaign, and to help in the collect
ing Of clothing, food and funds for
the use OF the Red Cross and govern
ment agencies in the Near East Re-
lief.
"The National Education associa-
ton commends the profession for the
outstanding service in 1918 and for
the spirit already exhibited in this
hour Of need and as its president I
urge that every member Of the pro-
fession extend immediate aid to make
effective the plans and policies of
regularly constituted relief agencies.
The situation Is serious. The needs
are so great as to call for sacrifice
and the subordination Of every selfish
partisan consideration to the pressing
problem of relief. The schools are es-
pecially near and dear to the people.
Their cooperation will NEAR much.
Early planning al do much to antici-
pate and prevent the worst disasters.
I'm order to be- certain that no
county, city OF rural district In the
nation is neglected I hereby request
the state superintendent In each state
to serve as chairman Of q state COM
mittee Of seven Of which the state
association secretary, the State N. e. A.
director, and the President Of the

FIGHTING TWISTING" BY LAW

Every citizen should be on his guard
against twisting" "a sales approach of un-
scrupulous life insurance agents
The aim of the twister is to dissatisfy
a prospect with his present policy in order
to sell him one in another company. To do
this he employs half-truths and downright
misleading statements, in the hope of per-
sonal gain. And in almost every instance the
policyholder is the loser if he consents to
the change
The state Of Texas has made twisting
illegal by law, and now the Superintendent
OF Insurance of the District of Columbia is
seeking legislation to permit suspension or
revocation of the license of any agent guilty
OF this pernicious practice.
1t is to be hoped that all states will
follow these leads The owner of a policy
in any responsible company cannot gain by
switching to another concern. He loses the
cash value of his policy and borrowing privi-
ledges, he must often pay higher rate be-
cause of advanced age, and the new COM
pany may not be as sound as the old one.
o millions of workers, life insurance rep
resents the sole savings of a lifetime, and
the twister should be prevented from taking
advantage OF those who are too ignorant or
too careless to guard against him for them
selves.

COPPER LICENSE PLATES

possibility of following suit, says the Butte

Every mining state should stand be-
hind the copper industry in any feasible
manner No other industry has contributed
more to the upbuilding of the west; and
few industries employ more labor, have a
greater purchasing power or are more es-

The mining industry is at present hav-

OUR PAST REGRETS

AT this time we do not hear about the
hundred of thousands of dollars that have
been lost to Sheridan county citizens during
the past few years through stock market
dealings. If our residents had kept away
from this "get-rich-quick' scheme, they
would today be in far better financial cir
cumstances than they are. Various reports
place our losses during the past four years
in this gamble at from one million five
hundred thousand to two millions of dollars
People like to forget about such things.
They hurt like the dickens However; let
us hope that as the pendulum swings away
from depression into prosperity these peo-
pie may remember the expensive course of
training they received and that they know
it is a get-poor-quick" scheme, dressed up
in misleading colors to lure the unwary into
parting with their cash.
There are less than 10000 people re-
siding in this county and the money lost
through grain speculation would exceed
$500 for every man, woman, and child. 1t
would pay all the taxes of this county for
tour years.
