He walked along and instead of going onto the sidewalk, he walked into the ditch. He landed on! his feet and it was later found that the vertebrae in his back had suffered a distinct shock. He spent a rather painful night, but a specialist, Dr. Kingsbury, of Hartford, came down this morning and heled Mr. Deming considerably.

The balloting started at 7:30 o'clock and the last one was thrown into the box shortly hefore 9 o'clock. The hall was so crowded that the people had to wait for fully an hour before those ahead of them moved forward a step or two as the ones casting their votes were let out the back svay of the hall. That the women of the town were deeply interested in the matter was easily seen as there were equally as many of them at the hall as there were men. And they voted too, just how is not known, but judging from the majority of ballots cast for the pictures, it is believed they were in favor, The check list was used on the vot- ers and Join E.

Goddess of Amherst's Even Classes | Evades Her Foes, Amherst, Mass, Sept. 30.—The statue of Sabrina, Amherst College's goddess, for possession of which the odd and even numbered classes are rivals, flitted across the campus yes- | terday as the students were assem- | bled for an undergraduate photo- graph, then disappeared again. The statue was in an automobile in . charge of J. R. Kingman of Min-' neapolis, Minn,, B. J. Williams of Tulsa, Okla., and J. & Wood of | Brooklyn. Students of the odd class- ies, who lost Sabrina last year at Litchfield, Conn., where she had been hidden in the county jail, comman- | deered autorobiles and made an un- | successful chase. |COMMUNITY THEATER Duffy were in charge of this work. Edward Aspinall was chairman of the meeting and was commended on his excellent judgment in running the affair. Edward P. Prior, John Ives and Meritt O. Ryder were tellers. The long expected debates on the question were not heard, much to the disappointment of many who had just attended to hear the arguments presented. When the meeting started at 7:30 o'clock;, Chairman Aspinall started the balloting immediately as the hall was so crowded that there was not enough room to turn around. This cut short any arguments on the matter and from the start everything moved smoothly and like clockwork until the minutes of counting the bal- lots came, During the time the tellers were busy, the crowds awaited outside the hall, inside the court room, in the corridors and on the stairs until the final verdict was received. There was much enthusiasm displayed when the tellers announced that Plainyiile resi- dents had favored operating pictures on Sunday but this enthusiasm was only shown by those who had voted for it. The party who had opposed the pictures, numbering 76, did not ilsplay such a cheerful expression and it was not a difficult matter to pick them out from the others. Some grumbling was heard that the town was “going to the dogs' and “the peonie did not known what they were doing” and other remarks at- tacking those who favored the enter- tainment feature on the Sabbath. Election Monday. Monday will be the big day for Plainville voters when they will turn out to cast their ballots for town offi- cers. The main issue of the election this year is the naming of selectmen. While predictions are that William J. Johnson will lead the race, running on the republican ticket, it is prom- ised that there will be a surprise turned by the democrats who have put Peter J. Prior up against .Iohn-}na held in New London on Oct. 17 son. These two staid old politicians will have the first opportunity -of their | lives to run the race against one an- | other and the outcome will be inter- esting to watch for. The ballots will be counted after 5 | o'clock Monday afternoon. The poll- | ing places will open at 5 o'clock in the morning to allow the shop work- | ers to get in an early vote.
