 The letter:
 Dear Joe:
 Someone stole the door of your house. The COW has been poisoned and the plaster in two rooms up- stairs has fallen down. A man came and said you promised him he could have 12 quarts of peaches. I gave them to him. Did you prom ise him?
 Some people are living in your other house and won't pay rent and won't get out. Ray and his family are well except Ray is in poor shape. We are trying to ready the house for winter.
 Someone stole the top of the stove and broke two windows. Your cross-cut saw is gone and so is that gallon of sorghum.
 "I'd have written sooner to tell you they stole your last four chick ems but I couldn't find stamp. The moths are in the clothes and two blankets. Both children have humps.
 Harry says he will sign your bond if the weather ever fairs up."
 Taylor is charged with theft.

YOUNG COP. ARE. NOT IN HARMONY
They Don't Like DictatiOn From the Older Heads
 of the Party

Des Moines, Ia., Nov. 9-(UP)- Smothering Q flareup ienited by friction with the republican na- tional committee, young republican leaders opened Q convention today they hope will influence party pc- licies in 1886. Delegates from 90 states expressed willingness to COG operate with the national commit tee 'f0r the good of the party" Re- sentiment against 'dictation" by the committee several weeks ago brought a statement that the young republican organization would not be dominated by "reactionary lead- ership."
 Harmony Missing
 Despite expressions of harmony today, the delegates indicated a battle would develop if the nation al committee makes a direct bid for control of the movement. Although presidential candidates are not to be endorsed by the convention, del- egates agreed a liberal" candidate must be selected if the republican party is to seek support of the na- tiOn's youth in 1886. Walter J. Ma honey, head of the powerful New York delegation, voiced the attitude of the convention.
 Want No Dictation
 we believe that a midwesterner of liberal republican views probab- ly will be selected to head the re- publican national ticket" he said. We are convinced the majority of republicans, regardless of age, are opposed to and will not be donlin- ated by reactionary leadership.
 The same attitude was expressed by J. Kenneth Bradley, Westport, Conn. @
 T know of no breach between the two organizations" Bradley said. I'm anxious to cooperate I'm not here to interrupt"

Irish-American Club
 Eulogizes Veterans
Plan 100 Per Cent Turnout Tomorrow for Armistice Day Parade-Dr. CondOn Guest Speaker at Meeting

While other people of other na- tionalities glory i1 war, we are glorified in peace" So said mem- bers of the Irish-American social club last night in planning to be the only civic organization to be represented in the Armistice Day parade to be held tomorrow after noon. Plans were made at last last nights meeting for 100 per- cent turnout. Leaders of the club praised the veterans, units stating that as American citizens we all owe the soldiers a debt that can- not be measured in dollars and cents, and the only way that they can be aided is to pay them a de- serving tribute on this one day in the year.
 Members of the club were asked to report at Eagles Hall on North Main street tomorrow afternoon at 1 o'clock, where they will be es- corted by the Mattatuck Drum corps to Central avenue and Grove streets, the place of their parade formation. Each member is asked t. wear a sash and in event that they haven't these, the committee will provide suitable emblem be- fore starting time. The Ladies Auxiliary has been asked to follow these same instructions. Thomas Reidy, chairman of the parade committee indicated last night that the Irish-Americans were being paid an unusual honor in having themselves represented as the lone civic group. It was pointed out that on last St. Patrick'S day the vet eran's organizations did not hesi- tate to march in honor of the pa- tron.
 Dr. COndOn Guest
 Superintendent of Schools Dr. Thomas Condon in an interesting culturla talk outlined the principles behind the Mattatuck College movement. He said that the insti- tuition serves a two-fold purpose in bringing educational facilities to the unemployed who could not further educate themselves due to financial disabilities, secondly, 1t provides unemployed teachers with work. Dr. Condon said that the fac- ulty consists of IA teachers, 12 of whom are men, 2 clerks, and a l- brarian. These 17 persons with col- lege degrees are now in position to provide for themselves. The speaker said that these teachers must be approved on according to government requirements.
 Questions Asked
 Following his scheduled talk, Superintendent Condon conducted an interesting question period ana obliged several of the members in their desire for additional informa- tion. The guest of the evening was rendered a most complimentary vote of appreciation.
 During the meeting which was held under President George Ryan, several new members were added to the roster of the organization.
 Announcement was made that the dancing classes conducted un- der the direction of Peter Crowley on Tuesday nights will be discon- tinued with the gathering of next week. Tn their place the entertain ment committee was instructed to hold regular Irish- American dances on this night. The committee is headed by Michael ]. Whelan.
