many nearly perfect displays.
The receiving clerks checked in
100 exhibits covering approximately
80 different kinds of flowers.
The Ferndale Nursery donated all
the prizes and also put on very at
tractive commercial display in one
corner of the building.
Mrs. A. Henriksen's senior string
orchestra furnished music in the eve
ming and the committee did fairly
good business in their coffee and
lunch department.
The head committee consisted of
Mrs. Chris. Frederiksen, Mrs. j. AL
bert johnson and Mrs. Svend Peter
sen, and they were ably assisted by
several willing helpers. The COM
mittee states that they would be
pleased to receive suggestions for
making the annual affair bigger and
better.

DISCUSSING THE
 MILK QUESTION
Not Much Being Said With Reference to Right
 of Consumers

The milk question is attracting much attention in this state and all over the country. So far as one can learn through published reports the principal thing aimed at is to please the producers and dealers. How about the consumer? This question was put to dealer the other day and he had very ready answer. He stated that the average house holder has but a vague idea of the amount of money dealers lose on account of families not be- ing able to pay. He likened it to why the rate of taxation is so high here and every place else, and went on to show that were it not for the large number of people who for noe reason or another fail to square thei raccounts promptly with the collector and force the city to make temporary loans. tax es would be lower than they are.
 We'll, this may be true, but after all one hears very Mttue about the consumers in the reports of discuss sions held at meetings on the milk question. The only remedy for the consumer Is to supply their own milk. This would mean additional labor. something most people seem ta be fighting shy of in everything else as we'll as keeping cows and tiiling the soil. But the subject is being brought before the public more so than ever before. Whether 1t will amount to anything is doubt full. Tn any event. the back to dand movement Is being urged by some of the ablest men in the country, as the only remedy for the high price of things that enter into the cost of living.

Waterbury Man Says He Felt
 lOOe6 Better In Only 3 Weeks
Took the New Medicine Vendol which Quickly Relieved Indigcs- ton. Gas in stomach. and Con- stipation. Advises Everyone to Try It.

It is too bad that every person in Waterbury who suffers from stomach trouble or constipation does not know about the new Vendol medicine Vendol now being intro- duced by the vendol Man from Baltimore, Md. through the Water bury Drug Go. Every spoonful of Wendell Is loaded down with ex- tracts of medical herbs that act upon the juices of the stomach and give astonishing results.

For instance, Mir Albert Navickas, bet ter known as Benny" who resides at 49 Anderson Ave. employed at Scovill Mfg. Co.,. member of St Joseph's Catholic church. says, 'i feel hundred per cent better than did three weeks ago when start cd taking vendol. ''-'
 "I had become run down. nerves were iumpy and lost my appetite. l was eonstipated all the time and often felt dizzy and drowsy.
 My stomach was weak and seemed all my food turned sour as soon as I had eaten. This caused a lot of gas to form and often felt nauseated.
 T read what people said vendoI did for them for exactly the same troubles .as mine So I thought if vendoi hsiDed them. it would help me. 70 I got some.

The State Department crowd bore
down heavily on Ambassador Welles to
get him to approve recognition Of the
Grau government in Cuba. They
thought it was foolish to go on waiting
any longer for Grau to fall. Recogni-
ton would bolster him. It Is quite EVIL
dent that while his regime will continue
to have trouble, no one else would prob
ably do much better.
Welles has been holding out for weeks,
privately predicting Grau would be drop
ped at any minute, but Grau is still
there.
Mrs. Roosevelt did not originate the
idea of having afternoon tea parties for
Government women.
That was first done BY Mrs. Ruth B.
Shipley head Of the State Department
Passport Division. She started the
vogue several years ago. At 4:30 pm.
each day officials would drop into her
Office for tea.
The parties suddenly ended when a
facetious news man wrote a story about
the departmental tea hounds.
Likes Social Whirl.
The new Russian Ambassador is a
literary man, of good military family
and likes the social whirl.
Litvinoff's intimates say he was sorry
he had to concede so much, but he likes
the agreement.
