Judgés in the Tri-County speaking contest held under. the auspices of | the. W. C. T. U. at:the camp grounds | K)'esterc\uy in connection with the | Chautauqua assembly gave their de- cision in favor of Miss Ruth A. Burr of Higganum and presented her with the gold medal offered as a prize for the best temperance oration. By win- ning yesterday's contest, Miss Burr is eligible to enter the- competitive speaking test to be held next summer at ‘which time the temperance people will offer a diamond award for the victor. There were a number of con- testants for the medal yesterday and their speeches were well given. The judges had difficulty in selecting the winner as all orations were of high merit but they finally agreed to con- fer the honors on Miss Burr. The advent of the white ribboners at the camp ground greatly augment- ed the attendance at the assembly and the crowd on the grounds was the largest of any day-of the session. The various temperance meetings were conducted with enthusiasm and the members made plans for a most vig orous prosecution of the fight against John Barleycorn before they left for home. Mrs. Mary E. Welles of Wethers- fleld was in charge of the gathering! The three counties decided to offer a prize of $10 for the best essay on tem- perance subjects written by a high school student.

Before the speaking contest, Rev. Walter E. Lamphere of = Hartford gave an interesting report ‘on the Anti-salooffl convention held recently at Atlantic City. Chautauqua Sunday is expected .to attract a large number of visitors to the assembly tomorrow. There will be services in the morning, afternoon and evening. Sunday school will be held at 9 o’clock. Rev. Carl F. Nor- throp of Waterbury will give a ser- mon at 10:30 and in the afternoon at 3:45, Rev. Roger A. Dunlap will be the preacher. “Bible Pictures” will be the | subject of an illustrated lecture to be given in the evening at 7:30 by Mrs. Truman J. Spencer of Hartford. Exorbitant rates charged by the op- erators of “jitneys” have given the Chautauqua officials a problem which they finally solved by inducing own- ers of cars, who are attending the as- sembly, to press their -machines into service as common carriers. Some of the “jitney” owners charged as high as 50c and 75c for each passenger riding from Plainville center to the grounds. It is the intention to start some reg- ular service when the Methodist camp meeting opens. Officers of the Meth- odist association insist that the rate shall not exceed 15c for a passenger. It is probable that two machines will be put in commission. Trumbull Help to Have Outing.

Sentiment in town apparently fa- vors the school board!s plan of erect- ing a portable school house to re- lieve the congestion in the Grammyr school building and at the next meet- ing of the committee i is expected that the matter of’awarding the con- tract will be considered. The board has - had the matter of erecting a small building in mind for some time, all indications pointing to crowded conditions in some of the upper grades when the fall term begins. To provide adequate accomodations for the pupils, the board realized that it would be necessary to either aban- don the kindergarten or make more room. The townspeople are apparent- 1y opposed to keeping the little chil- dren out of school and seemingly they concede that the alternative will have to e selected. The board ectimates that portable building of a type suitable for the immediate needs of the school chil- dren will cost about $700. The ex- pense of maintaining the school of course will be increased as it will be necessary to engage an extra teacher to take charge of an addi- tional grade which will be created. The kindergarten will probably. be moved to the new building and the room which it now occupies will be used - for the overflow from grades six and ssven. The need of additional room at this time substantiates the claims of some of the voters that the town was show- ing but little foresight when it fav- ored the erection of the Grammar school building a few years ago. At the time it was argued that this struc- ture would satisfy the needs of the commuhity for a least fifteen years and by that time conditions would probably be such that it would be necessary to have & building in some other part of the town. Funeral of Miss Prior. The funeral of Miss Lorena Prior, whose death occurred yesterday morning, will be held tomorrow after- noon at 2 o'clock from thd home of her father, Thomas G. Prior of South Washington street. Services will be held at the Church of Our Lady of Mercy. Burial will be in St. Joseph's cemetery. The funeral mass will be celebrated Monday morning. Brief Items.
