The Westcott and ox Old People’s Home to Open Soon—Burglary at John A. Paine’s House—Danielson Wins in Checker Tournament. The Wescott and Wilcox old people’s home is about to become a reality. Arrangements are being completed that insure opening the home in a few weeks, perhaps next month. The ben- efits that are to accrue to the aged of Danielson are due to the generosity of various philanthropic persons who long since planned to provide a home for persons desiring such a refuge in their declining years, The site of the home will be on the Wescott estate, on Main opposite Win- ter street, which was given Dby the will of the late Miss Almira Wescott for the purpose indicated. The home itself will be in what was previously the Wescott family residence, ideal in many ways for its coming use, Placed well back from the street, it is fronted by a wide terraced lawn and flanked by pretty homes. The es- tate to the eastward covers seyeral acres that will present happy oppor- tunities for enjoyment of life in the open when the seasons permit. The neighborhood is quiet and restful and there is little lacking in the way of matural endowments that might be desired for such an institution. Some repairs will be necessary, but they can be made in a short time. The home will be in charge of ver- sons to be selected by the board of directors of the home. As yet all of thes funds that will eventually come to # home are not avaflable and for that reason, for a time, the inmates will be required to pay board. The income for the present, derived from the rents of the other dwellings and buildings of the property, will be of necessity used in paying for such re- pairs and changes as are contemplated. The home also has the income from $1,000 given by the will of Deborah Lapham, Another ‘prominent patron of the home is Betsy Wilcox, whose name is assoclated In the title. Eventually the endowments of the home will place it on a self-gupporting basis and permit of the enjdyment without cost to those it shelters. The officers of the home are: Pres- ident, Timothy E. Hopkins: secretary, Judge Arthur G. Bill; treasurer, Frank T. Preston: diractor. Timothy E. Hop- kins, Judge Milton A. Shumway, J. Arthur Atwood, Frank T. Preston, John A. Paine, Arthur G. Bill, Sydney Entrance was by using a lad- der, taken on ‘premises, to reach a window in the second floor at the rear of the house. The loss is a little less than two dollars in money, a watch fob and a pin. The evidence Indicates that one man did the work. Footprints in the snow would also tend to prove that he was of small stature. All of the rooms were visited, bureau draw- ers inspected and the house probably quite thoroughly searched, There were also indications that the illegal vis- itor intended to lunch after his work, ‘but had been frightened away. The family were out about two hours from 8 until a little after ten o'clock, I:lnd the break was made during that ime. ONE GAME Enabled Danielson to Win in Team Tournament at Creckers. Victory came to the Danielson play- ers by a margin of one game in the team tournament at checkers, held in the quarters of the Danielson checker and chess club In the Exchange build- ing Tuesday evening. The teams were of seven men each, one local, the other representing Williamsville. East Killingly and Attawaugan.

Merrill, general secretarv of the Norwich Y. M. C. A, who talked on Club Orgdniza- tion as a Feature of the Assoclation. The remarks of both visitors were highly_instructive and rich in sugges- tion.

Danleison and Mrs. George E. Daniel- son, who responded to the toast Hus- bands and Sons of Danielson. During the evering selections, were given by a male quartette composed of Messra. A. P. Day, W.
