We shall soon be making a new tariff, the present tariff being admit- | tedly unsatisfactory. We are dis- Ji posed to go to. the extreme of experi- | ment in our tariff making. = One rea- i‘ congressional directory is the fact that of the fourteen democratic members of the ways and means committee that framed the Underwood tariff, fourteen were apparently destitute of any large or well ripened business ex- ! perience. |* Mr. Underwood was serving his i tenth consecutive term in congress and the other thirteen were lawyers and mostly coun‘ry lawyers. HEven as lawyers, they were more or less of failures. They put into the law a- provision which was intended to give a preference of five per cent. to goods imported in American ships. | What is actually accomplished was ! to..reduce the duties on all imports | five per cent. In other ways, its lan- guage was so 'inaccurate or uncertain that the courts have had difficulty in construing it. .

Plaln ville News PORTABLE SCHOOL MAY BE EREGTED More Adeqnate Accommodations Needed for Upper Grades | SCHOOL BOARD HAS PROBLEM Indications Are That There Will Be Congestion in Some Rooms Unless New Building Is jured When “Jitney” Overturns, Constructed—In. Again confronted by the problem of accommodations the school | board is considering the pian of erect- ing a portable building to relieve the congestion in the upper grades. That ! some of the rooms will be vvercrowded in the fall unless steps are taken to provide additional space seems inevi- table and the board believes that it will be necessary ejther to erect & | portable building or give up the kin- alternative would townspeople as dergarten. The hardly satisfy = the | there is apparently a sentiment against children out of keeping the little school, According to the secreary, Rev, F. Grant, the board has not as vet the proposi- tion, a motion for the crection of the new building having been tabled at the last meeting. Before making a cecision members of the committee : % | hape to ascertain the sentiment of the 1eople of the town. | There is every indication that the | registration in the upper grades will 3¢ So large this fall that difficulty will i be experienced in acceminodating the pupils. The congestion will probably be particularly noticeable in the eeventh grade and unless more room is provided the board feels that proper attention cannot be given to the pupils. Thirty-five children, the committee feels, should be the maximum num- ber for a single teacher. In some of of rooms in the school it is likely that ihere will be forty-three or forty- change is made it {s not thought the teacher can do efficient work. While the cost of constructing a building of a type considered by the toard would not be in excess of $700 or $800, the expense of maintaining the school would be increased as it would, of course, be necessary to en- gage an extra teacher. For this reason the beard is proceeding slowly, the members realizing ' that economy appears to bé' the wateiword of the taxpayers. The proposed building would con- tain but a single room. It could be placed near the Grammar school house and heated from the furnace in that building. It is thought that its erection would solve the problem of congestion and would be a decided im- provement. The boafd considers the erection .of {he portable building absolutely essen- tial unless the kindergarten is given up. Such a move is being considered by the board although it is not likely that it will be adopted. It has already been found necessary to admit to the kindergarten only children of five years of age or over, Some mothers apparently wanted to convert this de- partment into a nursery and applica- iicns have been made for the admis- sion of infants, hardly able to walk. It has been necessary as a result to make some restrictions. In many towns there are no longer any kindergartens in the schools, this feature seemingly having lost much ot its popularity. In Plainville, how- ever, there appears to be a demand for it and it.is likely that a strong pro- test, would be registered should the gchool board abandon it. The new building, if constructed, will be“used tor a kindergarten and the room in the Grammar schobl, which that de- partment now occuples, willbe utilized for one, of the upper grades, \ Taken to Sanatorium. Through the efforts of First Se- lectman Johnson, Mrs. Maude Dou- sette of Bank street was taken to Un- dercliff sanatorium at Meriden today. Mrs. (Douseite is in’'the last stages of tuberculosis and as she has not been receiving any care at home, the selectmen decided to send her to a sanatorium, Her case is a particularly sad one. She is a widow and has two children. The woman, until a few days ago, had not even been attended by.a physician, and even after the select- men had made arrangements to have treatment given her, she objected to having a doctor called in. She also protested against going to a sanator- jum, as she didn’t want to be taken from her children. Arrangements were finally made to have the young- sters sent to the home of their grand- parents in Boston, and the select- men pursuaded the mother to enter the sanatorium. There is no hope for her recovery. and her death is considered a matter of but a very few weeks. Russell Can’t Recover, H. L. Russell of West Main street i= in a critical condition at the New Britain General hospital, and hope for his recovery has been abandoned by the attending physicians. Mr. Russell has been ill for several months, He suffers from a complica- tion of diseases and his case is re- garded as incurable. At the hospital it was reported today that the patient is very low.
