BACTERIA LURKS
 IN FLOOD WATER
State Dept. of Health Pre- ScribeS Precautions for
 Supply Owners

Dangerous bacteria are likely to turk in the flood waters now inun- dating large sections of Connecticut terrain, the state department of health warned in a special bulletin today, in which water system of1i- cials were urged to make certain that their purification plants are working with their usual efficiency, and owners of private springs and wells in the flooded areas were ad- monished to check these supplies and if necessary to treat them chemically.
 Flood water suddenly pick up de- bris and polluting material which have accumulated on the ground, and may wash them into streams and reservoirs or poorly located and poorly protected wells and springs.
 Where there is any question about the safety of drinking water, it should be boiled for five minutes to destroy any bacteria that may cause water-borner disease, the bulletin said. If wells or springs have been exposed to flooding, they should be disinfected with a solution of chlor- idle of lime and water. Half the con- tents of l2-ounce can of chloride of lime dissolved in a pail or two of water, strained through cloth and poured into an average size, dug well will disinfect it heavily. Such a quantity would be more than ade- quote for 6 well three feet square with 25 feet depth of water. Larger quantities of the disinfectant are not injurious. Colonization will im- part a strong chloride taste and odor to the water but this will soon disappear. An effort should be made to stir up the disinfectant in the well and the disinfected water should be allowed to stand for 90 minutes tQ insure adequate contact. If 1t appears that the well has been badly polluted. it is safer to pump 1t out after dislnfection and disin- feet the well a second time. Any debris entering the well should be removed.

M The Local TheaterS
STATE

Performances this evening provide last opportunity to see the mar velous show now being presented at Warner Brothers State theater.
 Heading the bill is the all-natural color screen triumphy, "The Trail of the Lonesome Pine" with Fred Mac- Murray. Sylvia Sidney, Henry Fon- da, little "Spanky" MacFarland and Fred Stone. Capacity houses all day Saturday, Sunday and again yes- terday cheered this picture as one of the supreme triumphs of the screen.
 The companion feature is Don't Gamble with Love-" starring Ann Sothern and Bruce Cabot.
 Tomorrow brings an all new show to be headlined by Showed Under romantic comedy drama starring George Brent and Genevieve Tobin with Glenda Farrell, Frank Me- Hugh. Patricia Ellis and John El- dredge. .
 It's the hilarious story of a play- right who h1es himself to @ secluded Connecticut farmhouse to finish a play and through a series of events finds himself snowbound with his first and second wives and Q young co-ed in love with him. It's packed with laughs and amusing situations that tend to make 1t one of the fun- niest comedy romances of the year.
 The companion feature will be "The Preview Murder Mystery" It's enacted by an excellent cast that includes Reginald Denny, Gail Pat rick, Frances Drake, Rod LaRoque, Conway Tearle, Ian Keith, George Barbier, and Jack Mulhall-and it's breath-taking from start to finish.
 "The Preview Murder Mystery" as the title indicates, takes place al- most entirely on the stages of a movie studio, where a fiend roams loose, leaving a trail of blood, as a dozen companies work on separate productions. Tn the hands of Direc- tor Robert Florey, this becomes an exciting, realistic drama whose tenseness will raise goosefiesh on the most hardened mystery fan.
 You'll probably enjoy the back stage glimpse of Hollywood at work as much as the story. You're of- fered chance to see pictures in the making-and it's genuinely fascin- ating!

 They base their predictions on the fact that they already have the prospective customers in their membership. They feel that with their huge reserves of cash, they can cut insurance costs to the bone and make the same success of this business that they have made of the small loan business.

op insurance and finance plans un- der way and in operation.
 The County Life Insurance was started in 1929 to bring low cost insurance to members of the 1lli- nois Agricultural Association. 1n the first 60 months of its existence, 1t wrote $50,000,00 worth of poli- cies. This since has been run up to $75 5,500,000 and is expected to reach $s5, 100000 before the end of the year.

Started in 1921, the movement struggled along. The lobbies of the loan companies made the sledding hard at first, for, it was necessary to get legislation enacted before credit unions could be set up. NEW DEAL AIDS CAUSE
 Then came New Deal legislation. The credit union leaders went to Washington and were successful in getting a Federal Credit Union law, under which any group in any part of the United States could set up it's own bank under federal charter.
 Therefore, any group of 20 or more people in the United States, workers in an industrial plant, members of a rural community, a lodge, @ church parish, or frater- nal organization can set up their own bank, make loans to their own members, and 50 banish the menace of the loan shark from their own group.
 Up till this time, the movement was headed by the Credit Union National Extension Bureau. This bureau was supported by MT. Filene, who paid the bills for or- ganization work. Following enact- nlent of federal law, the credit union movement stepped out into independence.
 The Credit Union National Asso- ciation was formed. Directors and officers were elected by the various state leagues. Then came the real expansion of the movement.
 MANY MILLIONS SAVED
 In the first IA years of its exist ence, the credit union movement built up some 300 unions with a total membership of around 750,o00. In the last six months nearly 1000 new credit unions have been added and the membership has jumped to 825, 1000. Savings total more than $50, 0,000,000.
 Membership is now growing at the rate of 5000 @ week. In 14 hAOk1Vlo V1iC NICUiU OlIOI CbtlOIldl Association expects to double the work of the first IA years.
 As the movement grows, more and more money flows into the cof- fers of the credit unions. And with more money 1t becomes necessary to open new fields of activity.
 One credit union in Massachu- sets, started in 1921 on a capital of $20, now is doing a loan busi- ness of more than a million and @ half @ year. But that business isn't big enough. The credit union to- day has $30o,000 lying idle. To use this, the directors are planning direct move into the installment buying business.

POLI'S

"Wife vs Secretary" with Clark Gable, Myrna Loy and Jean Harlow and taken from the Faith Baldwin serial story that ran in the Cosmo- politan magazine, is the feature at- traction now at Polls and which comes to the end of its engagement tonight, on the same program there is also Thelma Todd and Patsy Kelly in "Top Flat"
 Tomorrow brings program that has all the earmarks of the best show to be presented by any theater in New England, on the screen there is @ superb double feature program made up of Love On Bet" and as the companion feature there is Here Comes Trouble, while on the stage Wednesday evening only at 8:45 there will be presented the very popular weekly vaudeville show, an hour and a quarter of the best acts that the stage has to offer and with the addition of Gus Meyers and his fiddle in a special musical back ground to the show.
 Love On a Bet" is the same sort of g story as Tt Happened One Night" and with just as many funny situations, in the cast are featured Gene Raymond and Mona Barrie. Raymond bets that he can hitch- hike across the country, in his shorts, and land in Hollywood with 6 suit, $100 in cash and a romance, well maybe he does 1t but he sure has a hard time and while he is struggling you will be having the time of your life.
 Here Comes Trouble" features Paul Kelly, Airline Judge, Gregory Ratoff, Sammy Cohen and other funsters in 8 picture of hard-boil- ed sailor and his cuticle cutting cutie, and you know how hard- boiled Paul Kelly can be and at the same time we all know that Bridgeport's Airline is also no 'softie' and they surely pass out the hard words to each other.
 The stage show will be the best that has been seen at Polls this season, with a delightful added at- traction, Manager Ed Fitzpatrick, now makes weekly trips to New York and the acts that he selects are those that are appearing right on Broadway at the leading theaters and all of them are showing in theaters where the admission price is at least four times greater than at Polls. Make up 8 party and come on down you will be well re- paid in entertainment and it is @ foregone conclusion that you will never miss another great show.
 Saturday Sunday Monday and Tuesday Polls again leads all other theaters when it presents Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire in "Fcllow the Fleet" the most tuneful, girl laden, romantic filmusical the screen has ever presented. This film will be shown for four days only so you had better make your plans now to be on hand for this gala occasion.

WHEN IT'S SPRING IN IRELAND
BY THE MAN IN THE TOWER

 Sure we know it's Spring in Ireland Over hill and down, From Galway on the west coast And south to CaStletown. Hedgerows are budding,
 There's a green sheen OCT the land, From the Donegal highlands Far across the northern strand. Likely they're at Spring planting, The farmers in Cork and Kerry, And Hitting song on Patrick's day With spirits bright and merry. No Winter storms have devastated Or uprooted single tree; Through misty glow, can you see 1t, This island set in the sea? Sure we know it's Spring in Ireland From Sligo to Bantry Bay, And we send out greetings kindly On this St. Patrick's day.

 KEEP CONTROL OF FUNDS
 Back of this growth of insurance is the understanding of the CO., operators that insurance is the sec. ondary banking organization. 90 the "co-ops" are building their own scNcndary system, on the theory that whoever finances Q business controls 1t. So they intend to finance their own co-ops, and keep control in their own hands.
 The record of the credit union is little short of amazing with sin- gle failure. The people had proved that they could handle their own money better than could the bank crs tg
 This record has given them con- fidence, so they are building for the future. And that future, they de- clare, is one in which the people themselves will own. control, and manage their own business.
 These people are open in their declaration that there is money to be made in the cooperative insur- aflce business, and they are moving to get that money, even as they are moving to play a bigger part in the business of selling themselves lon time" the higher-priced commodi- ties they need.

Elinor was a brilliant scholar in grammar school, Wiby High and at St. Ezabeths College from which she graduated in 1926 with honors.
