 The H. s. Liederkranz Male Chorus was organized February 19, 1881, by William Wehrle who since that time has spent considerable time and effort to make the chorus one of the outstanding singing so- cieties in the state. They have ap- peared before the public on many occasions and always gave a very pleasing performance.
 The officers of the Liederkranz Male Chorus are: Richard Kramer, president; John Waters and William Koch, vice-presidents; John Braxl, secretary; William Brauchman, treasurer; August Hildebrand, lib- rarian.
 The Women's Choral Club was or- ganized March IT, 1944, also by MT. Wehrle, who is the director. The chorus made it's initial appearance at 8 benefit for the Thomaston Branch of the Red Cross last year. Since that time they have given several other concerts and under MT. Wehrle's direction have improv- ed steadily to become one of the leading female chorus's in the Naug- atuck Valley. Besides directing these two societies, Mir Wehrle is also connected with singing organizations in nearby towns and cities in the capacity of director.
 He is talented musician and has the pleasing faculty of being able to weld such a group as the above named organizations into a we'll combined chorus.
 The officers of the Women's Choral Club are: Miss Edith Poit, president; Mrs. Doris Waters, vice. president; Mrs. Stephanie Fifield, secretary; Mrs. Christina McColl, treasurer and Miss Marion Sitkie- wicz, librarian.
 First Selectman E. R. Kaiser has issued the following proclamation against inflation:
 Whereas the price ceilings are es- sential to the war time welfare of the citizens of Thomaston and of the merchants who serve them;
 Whereas during the first World War military victories will not im- mediately remove the dangers of dis astrous imitation, and
 | Whereas for some time to come we will face inflationary dangers that could rapidly destroy from within the very security our armed forces are fighting to protect
 Therefore I, selectman of Thom- aston, invoke each citizen to par ticipate wholeheartedly in the town Grocer Consumer Anti Imitation Campaign by frank friendly ad- herence to our ceiling program.
