E. church yesterday afternoon when the Ladies’ Aid society entertained as their guests some of the older mem- bers of the community. A short program was presented under the direction of Mrs. G. W. ‘Tryon, president of the Ladies’ Aid soclety. After the singing of an old fashioned hymn, the gathering was led in prayer by Rev. May B. Lord, the former pastor of the church. Another familiar hymn was sung and Mrs. O. E. Edgerly, accompan- fed on the piano by Mrs. Tryon, sang, “Love’s Old Sweet Song.” Mrs. F. F. Hanford read a humorous se- lection which was followed by an address by Rev. A. L. Burgreen, pas- tor of the M. E. church in East Ber- lin. Following the singing of another hymn, small tables were set up about the room and refreshments served. While thus informally gath- ered about the room, Miss Eunice Lyman gave a very interesting sketch of the life of Senator Cur- tis, vice presidential nomince on the republican ticket, who was a pupil of hers while teaching at Topeka, Kansas.

Bristol News HIGH SCHOOL STILL PROVES BIG ISSUE Eight Room Addition to Be Dis- cussed at Meeting Attempt Made to Give More Protec- tion to North Side School Children —Forestville Gas Station Protest- od—Water Board Meets Action on the proposal to erect an eight room addition to the John J. Jennings school on Burlington avenue will be taken at a special meeting of the voters of the First School District, to be held tomorrow evening in the Federal Hill school. For the past two years lack of facilities at the Burlington avenue school has necessitated sending a number of children residing in that section to the Ilederal Hill school. This arrangement caused no incon- venience until this year when the Federal Hill school became over- crowded. When the fall term open- ed it was found that almost 100 pupils who lived on Burlington ave- nue and who should attend that school were forced through lack of room, to attend the Federal Hill school. In the event the voters decide to |erect the proposed addition, bids will be solicited at once and the contract awarded at a meeting to be held within the next month. For the past several months the question of re-establishing the dip- trict lines of the Federal Hill and the Stafford districts was considered and at one time it was proposed to extend the Stafford district as far as the top of Martin's Hill. Had this proposition been carried out, & school would have been erected in the vicinity of Jerome and Farm- ington avenues. The proposed ad- dition to the Jennings school will, however, eliminate the necessity of re-establishing the district bounda- ries and all children living west of Jerome avenue will be cared for in that school. Annual Meeting The annual meeting of the stock- holders of the Bristol Building and Loan association will be held at 7 o'clock this evening in the Arcanum building. At that time directors will be elected for the ensuing year and the annual reports submitted. Emmett Post Auxiliary A meeting of the Ladies’ Auxiliary of Harold ¥. Emmett post, Veterans of Foreign Wars, will be held at 8 lo'clock this evening. A luncheon | will be served at the close of the business session. “ Smith-Robinson Club Rally The first rally of the Smith-Rob- inson club of this city was held last evening in the democratic head- quarters in the Malone building. The speakers were Miss Edna Purtnell of the state democratic headquarters and William L. Barrett and Dr. M. F. Claffy, candidates for the general assembly. The gathering was attended by a large number of women. Warning Signs Placed To eliminate the danger to ehil- dren crossing North atreet in the vi- cinity of the North Bide school, the word “Stop” in large yellow letters has been painted on the pavement near the corner of West street. This action was deemed advisable by police and school authorities as a. result of an autoist passing through a group of children at this point about two weeks ago. Teachers at that time complained to the police department and the man responsible was brought befors the court but fwas not held responsible. Objection to Gas Station A strenuous objection to the loca- tion of a gas station at 87 Wash- ington street, Forestville has been voiced by several property owners in the vicinity and a petition has al- ready been circulated. This will be presented at a public hearing in the city court room at 9 o'clock tomor- row morning. Those objecting to the granting of the application of Oscar Ebb point out that a gas station at the point in question would constitute a nuisance, would lower property values and would increase the traffic hazard. It is understood, however, that other property owners have expressed themselves in favor of the gas sta- tion and the hearing tomorrow morning promises to be well at- tended. ‘Water Board Meets An additional appropriatien of $11,000 will be requested by the water board when the city council meets in November, according to ac- tion taken by the water commission. lers at fts regular monthly meeting last evening.

Lourie submitted to the board water commissioners last evening. At the present time all of thq reservoirs of the department are h“ with the exception of Reservoir No, 1 which is down 10 inches.

Many of the residents in the MI1 ity of the lake have complained about the bathers dressing in the woods at the east side of the pond and it is intimated that unless pro. per bathhouse facilities are furnish. ed, the bathing privilege will be, taken away. It is estimated that a bathhouse could be erected for $1,000 and the expenditure of amount is deemed warranted by t! commissionera. It is also prebable that a lifeguard will be stationed at the lake next summer to the numerous youngsters who there during the vacation peried. . A bathhouse for Birge's pond will also be recommended by the eom. mission at the next meeting of city council. During the winter months mest. ings will be held bi-monthly lutut" of monthly, & vote to this effect have ing been taken last night. H Park Board Progress was reported by Judge, Roger E.
