Hills, whose aggregate years of erv- ice to the district up to the present e one hundred and four. s Greene, following her gradu- ation from the New Britain Normal school, was engaged by the district and is at present serving her 54th year as teacher. When the new school was opened, she was trans- ferred to duty there from the Sarah E. Reynolds school on Academy street at her own request. | Miss Hills retired from active serv. ice in June, 1927, after having com- pleted 50 years service to the same | district. She graduated from New ‘Brlluin Normal school in 1876 and |after teaching a year in Rockville, | Conn., was engaged by the school board as an instructor in Forestville, and for the 32 years prior to her resignation’ was principal of the school. When her resignation was announced, the voters of the district at a moments 2% engaged her the that capacity at full salary. At the close of school'in June, 1927 she was ‘zendered a testimonial reception, | which was attended by many fermer | puplia, Mise Hills and Miss Greens, during their first years as teachers, were | amociated with Mrs. Sarah E. Rey. 'nolds, after whom the Academy street school was named. At that | time there were but 116 puplis ea. |rolied in the district, while at the present time approximately ¢60 are registered. | School Facilities Now Adequate ‘The present school facilities ia the | Forestville section, ia the opinion of school officlals, are adequute to care for the anticipated growth of that district for the next ten or twelve | years. The mew school is ettended i by children residing south of the rallroad tracks and the Forestville center and there is no longer any necessity for youngsters to dodge the heavy traffic on their way to and from their studies.. The entire cost of the building, ine cludihg all equipment, was slightly over $80,000, i Tonight the buidling will épen at 7:18 o'clock for inspection.

For several days previously the boys and girls of the departments had been bringing in their gifts for boys and giris in Por- to Rico, who suffered in the terrible hurricane last September. To help to relieve the distress, to assist in the rehabilitation of Sun- day schools and churches, the giving of these departments of the church WHERE (%”l. MAIN ST. — OPP. MYRTLE school has been Porto Ri aid th gifts consisted of a large quantity of clothing and materials for making clothes; pencils, notebooks and oth- or articles for achool use; toys and games for children, and story books together with money to assist in the rebullding of wrecked church build- ings. In the program which eccupied the early part of the evening, there ‘was Christmas music by the twe partments, and by the junior choir ' under the direction of Mrs. Robert Pattison, followed by stereopticon plictures of Porto Rico showing some of the beauties of the island and the lite of the people, and also showing some of the scenes of devasation fol- | lowing the hurricane of September 13. The gifts were arranged on ex- | hidbit in the rooms of the primary | department, and all were given op- | | portunity to see the hundreds of | gifts which had been brought by the children. Following the prograh the two departments separated and went to | their departmental rooms for a rec- reational program, which was fol- lowed by refreshments served by members-of the mother's class of which Mrs. Frank 8.
