Otis Warren, 11, Pulled Out of Quine- baug by Edmond Charbonneau. Otis Warren, son of Mr. Willis A. Warren of the West Side, narrowly escaped drowning in the Quinebaug river just above the Quine- baug bridge, Thursday morning. Otis, who is about eleven years of age, was fishing with his brother Clarence as a mpanion, from a canoe run in the r of the houses on the river bank. Otis dropped his fish pole in the river and in-trying to recover it he stepped on the wooden roller at the end of the canoe run. The roller spun around causing the- boy to lose his balance and to fall into the water. Clarence gave a frightened cry for' help, and succeeded in_attracting the attention of Edmond Charbonneau, who lives in one of the houses very close to the scene of the incident. When Charbon- neau arrived, the drowning boy had disappeared below the surface of the water. Charbonneau immediately: plunged in und was able to get the boy on' the first dive and eventually puil him out of the river up on the bank. A few minutes of vigorous work-were necessary ot clear the accamulated river water from the boy’s system, but and Mrs. | da; { That also means a pitchers' battle, if stinguished The memorial is a beautiful . al monument of selected ~Westerly granite, and arrived this week at the yard of a local dealer in granites anc marbles.

Townspeople in Doubt’ Whether New High School is to Be Endowed, if Not, by Increase in Tax-Rate. There seems to be a peculiar lack of information up in the town of Thompson_relative to the conditions that surround the proposed acceptance of the Tourtellotee Memorial High school by the town. The question that is perturbing the minds of some of | DANIELSON, - = - CONN the voters is whether the Tourtellottes, donors of the building, are to endow it or whether its acceptance is going to place a neavy obiigation of main- tenance uuon the citizens of this town without a debt. One citizen of Thompson on pre- senting the facts he possesses in the case states that without any endow- ment that the difference of cost in maintaining the present system of high school training and that of supporting a high school in town. will be the dif- ference between the $1.320.50 now re- ceived from the state, and which will be lost if the schoel is accepted un- ‘der the mon-endowniert plan. and the $5000- that it is estimated will be the | 12/zc, All of these goods are under price. yearly cost of maintaining the school by the town. y i The acceptance of the schiowl wili mesn an increase of abwut 25 per cent in the present tax rate of the town.

Legal notice has Leen given that the sources of information it has been arned that the people of Thompson werc under the impression that the beautiful building would be turned over to the town when it was com- pleted with a sufficient endowment to maintain it _without expense to the taxpayers. Now that there ls uncer- during the life of the donors, there is some hesitation about accepting it among the citizens, With_this sentiment prevalent, the school board" has made contracts with principal and teachers conditionally, dependent on the action of the voters in_accepting or rejectig the school. The probable outcome of the matter is that the school will he accepted, though there has been and will be much discussion of the subject. The chances afe that if the school is not endowed at once it will be in a very few sears and ‘he apportunity that Thompson has to secure such an ex- cellent school is too §0od to be wasted.
