At the/monthly meeting of the school board héld this week there was little of importance for discus- sion. After a careful canvass of the town it was established beyond a doubt that there are no cases of smallpox that are a menace to the schools and unless future develop- ments warrant t! schools will\ not close until the date set at the last meeting. The board was very much gratified by the reports received from adjoining towns as to the qualifica- tions of the local pupils in attend- ance at the schools. The question of much needed re- pairs at several af the school build- ings was talked aqver and the board will visit each school within the com- ing week to decide what the actual needs will be in this directior. The children at the Beckley school have their garden all planted and are now waiting for the crops to appear so that they can show the grown-ups what they have accomplished. Fiag Presentation Tonight. All members of the local unit of the Home Guard are requested to be on hand at the Town hall this eve- ning at 8 o'clock. The regular Fri- day night drill has been changed to this evening in order that the ladies of the town can presént the company with a handsome American flag. The ladies of town have been busily en- gaged for somie time past in taking up & subscription to purchase the flag and now everything is in read- iness for the affair. Just how large a flag has been purchased and who will do the presenting has not been announced and will be more or less of a surprise to the whole compaany. The evening will also be observed as sort of a ladies’ night and many of the fair sex are expected to be on hand to see the men go through their paces.. The drill will be the regular infantry drill that the men have been going through for the last two months with the exception of the rifies, which were used Monday night for the first time. Briets. Miss Margaret Wilcox, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. F. L. Wilcox, has re- turned from boarding school for the summer vacation.

Committee members were enthusiastic today over the response made by the townspeople to their ap- peal and they believe that Plainville’s showing will compare favorably with that of any town of its size in the state when the list. of subscriptions is made known. There is particular gratification over the part taken by the working ‘People as there are but few families in town from which a subscription has not been received. The manu- facturing concerns have co-operated in patriotic fashion and in addition to subscribing as corporations have made it possible for their employes to participate in the lcan by paying for their bonds on the installment plan. Last night's demonstration which will be recorded in the town's his- tory as one of its m memorable ‘events was a remarkable manifesta- tion of the patriotism bf the men, women and children of the town. It attested to the loyalty of. Plainville people and demonstrated clearly that ‘Plainville has no -slackers and it is ‘willing to do its share in the fight for democrax ‘Although but a few days were al- lowed in which to make ' arrange- ‘ments the special committee in harge of the plans, which consisted of C. H. Newton, J. N. McKernan and P. J. Prior, accomplished won- ders and the parade and mass meet- ing which_ followed it showed the splendid results’ which tHey had ac- complished . The entire town par- ticipated in the affailr. It was easily the biggest parade and the most en- thusiastic demonstration in Plain- ville’s history. It was noteworthy in many respects. Men, women and children of all classes mingled to- gether turning out en masse to show their faith in the nation and to.give evidence of their willingness to do thelr “‘bit." Visitors and they were here by the hundreds were amazed at the show- ing made agd the clock-work man- ner in which the affair was handled. Everything was on time, there was o confusion and not a single hitch marred the success of the undertak- ing. The parade was the best pageant ever held in Plainville. Hundreds participated and while there was a large fleet of autos available prac- tically geveryone, women included, wanted* to march. The costumes of the women and the decorations on automobiles were conspicuous feat- ures and they evoked much favorable comment. o Considerable credit for the manner in which the parade was organized goes to Edwin H. Hills, the marshal, and James Simpson, P. N. Prior and Pearl W, Smith who served as his aldes. They had things under per- fect control and the procession moved over the line of march without a single delay. Special praise was given to the members of the Surgical Dressings commiittee, who were attired as Red Cross nurses and the Plainville Can- ning club, wearing the garments of the kitchen. The other organizations also made a creditable showing. The automobile of Mrs. Grace Diggle at- tracted particular attention along the line of march. It was prettily dec- orated and carried a Liberty " bell The float of the Ladies’ auxiliary of the A. O. H. also evoked considerable applause. Along the e e route large crowds were gatheréd to view the procession. Homes on streets through which the parade passed were illuminated from basement to attic. ‘After the parade the townspeople and many of the visitors assembled at the drill grounds of the Home guard on Plerce street, where elo- quent appeals for subscriptions to the loan sought by the nation were made by J. S. Taintor of New York and Edwin D. Wilds of Hartford. The speakers were introduced by A. A. McLeod, chairman of the commitiee. Clerks on the grounds received sub- scriptions during the meeting. Near- ly $2,000 was secured in this manner. The time for receiving subscrip- tions here will expire with the closing of the Trust company this afternoon. Telephone inquiries at the bank indi- cated that before night the subscrip- tions would reach the $40,000 total which the committee set out to collect. Numbered among the subscribers are the Church of our Savicr, Fred- erick Lodge, A. F. and A. M, the ‘Woman’s club, the Boy Scouts and Court General Lawton, F. of A. The last-named organization made appli- cation iast evening for a $500 bond. The Trumbull Electric company and its employes will undoubtedly have the distinction of leading the manu- facturing establishments in subscrip- tions. #Over 314,000 worth of bonds have been applied for in this plant.
