 According to testimony, 6 fire was started on Saturday, June ', by Anthony pelourde, foreman for Tardy, who maintained that 1t was extinguished before he and others left the scene. Edward Mccarthy, district fire warden, testified that the ashes from the piles of brush were still hot on Monday when the fire had spread. Others called to testify were William Atwood, deputy fire patrolman, Harry Saunders, superintendent of Black Rock state Park: Irving Reindeau of Teryville, patrolman ct the state park, Deputy Game Warden Hunyadi of Water town.

 Keep away from New Haven. A South Britain woman drove to the Elm City last week and had her car stolen In broad daylight. She got the car back but the windshield wiper, vanity case, cigar lighter, and other trinkets were missing.
 That's what happens when you trade out of town. South Britain has more stores and finer mer- chandise than almost any person can handle. Our shopping center has clerks with peasant manners, Indian relics and antiques to please the oldster, lollypops and ice cream dlnkies for the moppets. No- body steals cars here and If they do chance to drive off with the neighbOr's chariot, they usually return it with more In it than they took away. We know of one fellow who lost Q car here and found it with . pint of gin, two slightly crimped cigarettes, and four matches on the seat. We've known folks t0 drive miles here to return missing or misplaced property. In the cities, it's dffferent. Folks fin town have been on relief so long they just take things.
 Our defective hospital now has 403 inmates and 2i2 normal ern- ployes. Al Geddes, former director of cottage life, has packed up and left the institution. The Reverend M. E. N. Lindsay, pastor at the school, has shipped his family to Maryland for e vacation.
 Boom hits South Britain! The demand for traps has become so brisk that our trap shop Is work ing an hour overtime every day. National defense workers In oth. or communities are buying fur coats. Trappers in the wild rec giOns are planning for the big market ahead. We share the ma. tional prosperity In our own mod est manner.
 Sam Pierce is helping the car. penters on the Sam Pierce Apart. inerts. The Squire of Pierce Hollow carries no union card but he swings c mean paint brush. We expect the apartments to be ready for tenants shortly, after Labor Day.
 Our new iaostelry and eating house, The Wheel Inn, has not yet had to add Co the service crew but we predict liveller business there over Jaly Fourth. Bill Laut- enshlagcr is the contractor in charge of ell construction on this job. The joints are tight and the floors are smoother than that roller skating rink at Bellevue Lake.

pretty startling picture Of the war at
sea by looking only at figures for
three months Of the year.
240 Ships Reported Sunk.
According to Lloyds Register, the
Axis sank $40 ships, totaling 1,017,-
920 tons, in that period. These in
cluded ITO British ships Of 750,947
tons. SIS Allied ships of 249, ,724 tons
and neutrals of 17,249 tons.
1t is now stated that while losses
in the Atlantic during the following
month of April were not extremely
heavy, losses during the evacuation
OF Greece will make April one of the
heaviest months of the war. If this
Is true, then the figures should ap-
proach 100000 tons, giving a total
for the first four months of well over
100000 tons.
To the British and allied cause the
loss OF a ship in the South Atlantic,
the Mediterranean or the Indian
Ocean Is just as serious in the long
run as the loss of a ship in the At
lantic. From the short-term view
point, which must guide policy in an
emergency such as the present one.
