- SCHOGL WARNING ~ SIGNS DEMANBED Unitod Parents and Teachers Want Children Protocted The lack of warning signs for mo- torists mear school buildings was condemned at a meeting of the | United Parents and Teachers' aaso- | ciation at the Walnut Hill school Jast night and the association voted to refer the matter to the board of police commissioners. The gembers were informed that there are no warning signs near the Elihu Bur- sitt, Washington, Bartlett and Ben- jamin Franklin schools. Many school children from the above named schools and also from the Sacred Heart, St. Mary's and the Nathan Hale Junior High schools pass through Broad street four times daily and it was felt that the traffic hazards in this congested dis- trict were great. It was voted to support the New Britain library committee in its re- quest for an appropriation which will allow it to continue the custom | of loaning books to the public| schools fer the use of the children. Harry Wessels, chairman of the teachers’ committee, which has been giving attention to this matter, ex- | plained that it has becn the custom | in the past to supply all the ecity schools with books for the recrea- tional reading ot the pupils, but this year, owing to lack of funds, the library had been forced to de- part from this custom and no books have been sent out. As a result many children have been deprived | of good reading material, especially the younger children, for whom a trip to the library is too far and the | lens, 35-year-old school teacher, and her star pupil, a farmer boy with lots of “it” hid in seclusion from the prying eyes of police. ‘The police are urged on by W. C. Chapman, father of Edwin Chap- man, 17, the boy who eloped with ha teacher. The warrant sworn to by the elder Chapman charges Mrs. Wellens with kidnaping, but accord ing to the boys and girls of Mount Holly school where the two met laat September, they were mutually at- tracted. « ‘The elopement was kept secret the missing pair having been gone for eleven days. They were last seen driving toward Atlanta in Mrs. Wellens' automobile.” They had money. According to police, Mrs. Wellens had her $200 salary and $300 she raised by mortgaging the old home stead where she .and her husband lived. Wellens is still at the farm, | doing his chores as usual and ap- parently unworried about his miss- irg wife. HAWLEY MEMORIAL LIRRARY WILI.

On January 1 of this year there were 215,000 horses in the six New England states. Last year there were 225,000 and the year before 239,000. But the individual value of a horse has increased. Where in 1925 the average value of horses was $116, it is now $133. With the exception of pigs, other livestock in New England is on the | increase. Milk cows and heifers over two years old totalled 764,000 on January 1, an increase of 1,000 over | last year's total. The galn was in| Rhode Island and Connecticut, | which offset a loss in Massachu- setts. The value of a milk cow is launching. It is now $111. Two years ago it was $84.
