War Mothers Fear Draft
Will Hamper Job Chances

The Bicentennial Chapter Of the
American War Mothers yesterday ex-
pressed the opinion that a year Of
military training would not be
harmful to the Nations young men
but that the draft might prove a
serious handicap to them If it takes
them out of job.
Holding their opening meeting Of
the season at the Raleigh Hotel, the
organization members said they
were not fighting conscription, but
from the personal experiences of
their children they feared the future
economic effect.
The group emphasized they were
not to be confused with the Con-
greSs of American Mothers who re-
Gently staged a death watch" at
the Capitol on the conscription
measure.
According to one member, I'VE
are for defense and preparedness,
but a good soldier who volunteers
with a whole-hearted desire 10 de-
fend his country is worth a whole
army of military slaves"
From the experience of her two
sons, both of whom left jobs TO
volunteer in the World War. Mrs.
Julia Hooker, president of the
chapter, warned of the difficulty of
getting employment when it is all
over. Mrs. Amelia Thiele. secretary,
reported the same experience for
her two sons who volunteered for
the Navy and served in foreign
waters

You'll get loads of use out of this
simple pattern. It's really two styles
in one and both interpretations are
so charming that you'll repeat them
time after time. The lovely, SWirling
hostess coat is perforated so that
you can make it in house frock
length, too. The wide, f1attering
collar, overlapping the revers, and
the belittling corset waiStline are
Just as pretty in the short as they
are in the long version! Make your
frocks with short puff sleeves; your
hostess coats with long, wide ones.
For the frocks, choose home cot
tons like percale, linen or gingham,
and trim them with ric-rac: for your
hostess coats, glamorous silk prints
or satins, and trim them with lace.

MAURICE DONOVAN
 SUES CITY, $l,5OO
Auto Accident Blamed On Negligent Condition of
 WatertOWn Avenue

Maurice A. Donovan, local insur- ance agent today brougt suit for $500 against the City of Water buhy as the result of an automobile accident, March 9, 1889, on Water town avenue at Garter Avenue.
 The scene of the accident which is just south of the junction of Watertown Ave. and Bunker Hill avenue is the same one involved in thre suits totalling $26,000 which the city settled last Tuesday at an llnannounced sum. They were the cases of Pasquale and Marie Rosa and their daughter, Thersa. These cases were brought as 8 result of Rosa's automobile crashing through the fence atop a retaining wall alongside the Naugatuck River. The plaintiff averred the accident was the result of deep holes in the Watertwon Avenue pavement, caus- ing Rosa to lose control of his car. MT. and Mrs. Rosa were submerged in the river and n1iracuously es- capped death.
 MT. Donovan's suit is brought along the same lines of alleged negligence as the Rosa cases. MT

Oak, pine. hemlock, maple and larch are all converted into marketable boards, scantling, and blanks by these ex- perts. Heading the outfit Is our first selectman, J. Edward Coer, III, who gained his experience in teaming through the rough country by travelling Southbury roads. Dave Marshall, Pootatuck citizen and war veteran, is another one of the timber crew. When Dave attaches himself to one end of a cross-cut saw, or a short-handled axe, fallen timber is sliced into logs faster than the mill can handle them.
