Berlin News BACKING WOMAN FOR SCHOOL HEAD HERE More Than 500 Sign Petition Fa- voring Miss Mary Griswold WAS FORMERLY ON BOARD Many Residents Anxious For Selection At Farly Date—Berlin and Kensing- ton Men’s Bible Clubs to Have Field Day Tomorrow. A formidable petition has been in circulation throughout the town and in Kensington for the past few days supporting Miss Mary Griswold for the position of superintendent of school which was left vacant by the resignation ' of Mr. Showalter, two weeks ago. Miss Griswold is the sister of Judge Griswold and is well known locally being a resident of the town for the past 20 years. She was a member of the school board for three and one- half years and was oné of those who resigned from the board at the same time that Mr. McCormick and Mr. Sullivan did as she was not in har- mony with the policy at that time. Miss Griswold is a graduate of the New Britain High school and the state Normal school. She has taught in the elghth grade of the Arsenal school in Hartford for the past 15 years and is understood to be one of the highest pald grade school teach- ers in the state of Connecticut. Be- fore going to.teach in the Hartford school she taught in the school of Ber- lin and Saybrook. Msis Griswold was the sponsor of the ninth grade in the local school when it was brought back for the second time after having proved a fallure under other administration. In teaching in the Arsenal school in Hartford Miss Griswold has had the advantage of being under the depart- mental system, a system which is ree- ognized in many educational centers as being one of the most up to date and efficiént in existence. ‘Workers from both the republican and democratic parties have united to have Miss Griswold appointed to the position of superintendent of schools. They feel that a woman who has had the advantage of being both on the school board and also a teacher will be capable of seeing both the view of the board and of the teacher and in Piles Can’t Be Cured from the Outside. External treatments seldom cure Piles. Nor do surgical operations. The cause is inside—bad tion. The blood is stagnant, the flabby. The bowel walls are weak, the parts almost dead. To quickly and safely rid yourself of piles you must free the circulation —send a fresh current through the stagnant pools. Internal treatment is the one safe method. J. 8. Leonhardt, M. D., set at work some years ago to find a real inter- nal Plie remedy. He succeeded. He named his prescription HEM-ROID, and tried it in 1,000 cases before he was satisfied. Now HEM-ROID s sold by druggists éverywhere under guarantes. It's éasy to take and can always be found at Clark & Brain- erd Co., who will gladly refund the purchase price to any dissatisfied cus- tomen circula- veins $7.39 Each for ranging in worth that way be able to have the system of schools in Berlin run with a smoothness which many claim has been sadly lacking for the past few years, As the regular meeting of the school board does not take place until the second Tuesday in August there is much speculation as to whether a special meeting will be called, or re- quested, to act on the appointment of a new superintendent. Many feel the time is short and that some definite move should be made at once. Mr, North, a member of the com- mittee to select a new superintendent is on his vacation and it is belleved that the selection will not be made until he returns about the second week 'in August. Any of the people who have not been as yet approached by those sponsoring the petition may, if they care to, register their opinion on the matter by calling Miss Adele Murray. Field Day to Be Held The annual joint fleld day of the Berlin and Kensington Men's Bible classes will be held Saturday after- noon on the Community grounds. These two socleties have held such events in the past and it is hoped that the field day Saturday will be as well attended as the past meetings have been. It is the hope of the officlals of both these classes that the two societies may get to know each other and work up a spirit of co-operation by which the work of both societies will be increased and the interest in their affairs heightened. Invitations have been sent out for the men to come and bring their families and a god time is promised to all who attend as the committee in charge has been working hard. The program for the afternoon is as follows: 2 o'clock—Tug of war; 2:15, six- legegd race; 2:30 relay ball race; 2:46, sack race; 3, baseball game; 4, tennis doubles. At the close of the atheltrs events a lunch, which will be made up by the ladies, will be served. Foresters’ Meting At the meeting of the Foresters last night two applications for mem- bership were received. Records throughout the New England states show that the local court is rapidly surpassing courts of a similar status in increasing its membership. For the last quarter of the year the local Foresters have gained 88 mem- bers, a larger number than any other lodge in New England. Two candl. dates were initiated last night. The semi-annual election of officers was held and Louis Goodrich was once again elected chief ranger. Mr. Goodrich has proved to be a leader of a high order. The newly appointed court deputy, Daniel Malarney, installed the offi- cers for the coming term. Team to Go to Avon.

FIGHT IN GOURT ROOM Beverly, Mass, Police Chief Punches ‘Witness After Altercation in Which ‘Word “Liar” Figured. Salem, Mass., July 20.—During the trial of an automobile speeding case in the distriet court today. Chief of Police John E. Hayes of Beverly, an- gered by a remark by Thomas 8. Sul- livan, a former city solicitor of Bev- erly, counsel for the defense, in which “lar” was used, struck Sullivan twice with his fist and knocked him down.

July —advt, CUMMINGS' TALK ON LAW Lawyers, reporters and other visi- tors to police headquarters this morn- ing-here handed pamphlets by Chiet of Police Willlam C. Hart, whith were turned over to the department by the New Britain Civic Safety League. The pamphlets contain a speech dellvered before the Bridge- port Pastors’ assoclation and the Bridgeport Council of Churches by Homer 8. Cummings, staté's attorney for Fairfield county. The address is entitled “Liberty and Law"” and in it Mr. Cummings points out the duty of the policeman, the ocourts and the private citizens to help Plainville News THOMAS LAWRENGE DIES IN HOSPITAL Well-Known Shoe Cobbler Suc- cumbs to Brief Iliness RUMORS OF FACTORY SALE To Macadamize Cooke Street-~Under- goes Operation—Sunday School Ple- nio—Condition Slightly Improved— Platnville Briefs. Thomas Lawrence, age 77 years, of ‘West Main street, died at the Hartford hospital yesterday shortly after noon. He had been ill for some time, but the first his friends knew of his seri- ous sickness was when he was taken to the hospltal by First Selectman Willlam J. Johnson Wednesday. Xe was suffering from acute heart at- tack, and upon arrival at the Hart- ford Institution, it was seen that he had only a short time to live. Mr, Lawrence realized this himself, be- cause before leaving Plainville, he gathered his belongings and handed them to the selectman with the re- quest that they be given to his son who, he sald, was living in West Wat- erbury. Mr. Lawrence was born in England and was always a staunch upholder of that country’s political moves. He came to this country many years ogo and settled in Plainville where he became a familiar figure. He was én- gaged in the shoe repairing business on the old style, in a small wooden building on West Main street just across the rallroad tracks, and in years gone by, some of his friends would gather there to discuss the af- fairs of the day. The funeral was held this afternoon at 4 o'clock from the undertaking par- lors of W. A. Balley & Co. with serv- ices by Rev, George Hilton, rector of the Episcopal church of Our Saviour. Burial was in West cemetery. Rumors of Sale A rumor which had become quite prevalent about town this morning was that the Plainville plant of the Bristol Mfg. Co. was to be sold within the near future. No confirmation of this rumor could be seoured from the officials of the concern. It was stat- ed that an option had been taken on the place which held for several months, and the purchasing party is said to be a large woolen concern. Another report states that the factory is to be started up again with a full complement of help by August 11, with the same line of officers but a new management. This however, like the other, could not be confirmed. To Macadamize Street Information has been received to the effect that work will soon be started on macadamizing Cooke street which has been taken over as a state ald road. The voters of Plainville de- cided, after Senator John H. Trumbull had used his good offices with the state highway commissioner, that the present would be an opportune time to convert the street into a state ald road. This will entail the expenditure of money by the town, but it is con- sidered a saving because after it is Hnished; the state will keep it in re- pair and the town will be free from any expense connected with it. . Undergoes Operation George Bentley of Canal street, a well known employe of the Bristol Mtg. Co,, underwent a successful op- eration at the Hartford hospital yes- terday morning. He was admitted to the institution last week and after X-ray plotures had been taken, it was decided to operate. His condition to- day was reported as favorable, Sunday School Picnic The annual plcnic of the Baptist church Sunday school will be . held Wednesday, July 25, at Rockwell park in Bristol. A schedule of the time for departure and return will be published next week. Condition Improved The condition of Miss Nellle Harris, who has been ill for the past 10 weeks at her home on Broad street, was re- ported today to be slightly improved.

Shortens Schedule ‘With the installation of the cross over in the center and the turn out near Hanson's shop, the running time for through trolley cars will be short- ened by about 15 minutes, It is plan- ned to have the Meriden cars meet on the turnout at Hanson's shop instead of in the center of Plainville as they do at present. The short line cars will switch back on the crossover in the center instead of drawing up in front of the post office, and the right of way for traffic at this point will be entirely clear, The station for pas- sengers to board the cars will be changed from the present corner over Community Theater Tonight at 8:30 WEEKLY DANCE Special Attraction TIERNEY'S ORCHESTRA A Combination of the Best Musicians of New Britain and Plainville in the enforcement of all laws, stating that if persons are allowed to chose the laws they will obéy, they soon will not obey any.
