What Mrs. Robinson Really Said. Mr. Editor: In The Bulletin of Feb. d I am quoted as saying “The women who are prejudiced against the federa- tions are women who are so absorbed in their own little family lot, becoming narrow in their ideas.” I did not use the word narrow. I did say that women who are indifferent to or preju- diced against the federations were women—often cultured and fine wom- en, too—but were so busy in their own corner lot thatt hey thought they had Three paid | no time to look over into the gardens of their neighbors and enjoy the beau- tiful roses, violets and other lovely owers.I objzct to the word “narrow,” because I believe everyone is narrow in some way or other.

PAUL FLYE Arrested in Leominster on Sensation- al Charges—Police Tales of Deprav- ity. ' E. Paul Flye, arrested in Leominster on the charge of abusing female chil- dren, was formerly a resident in Put- nam and {s well known here. A Leo inister press report says in part ‘The good people of Leominster were shocked when they learned that B. Paul Flye, aged 38, clerk at the Co- lumbia hotel, Leominster’s swellest hostelry, had been placed under ar- rest and released on bail of §1,000 for his appearance Saturday before Trial Justice H. C. Bascom on charge of abuse of four female children. “According to the police, the tales of alleged depravity and lewdness told them in connection with the chi made against the defendant are In- credible, because of their enormity, and rival those said to. have committed in Worcester.” Flye's arrest has caused a sensation in that section of Massachusetts about Leominster. In Putnam it has created a decided surprise. Flye was known here as a model young man—exem- plary in fact. That he should be guil- ty of the charges him can barely be belleved by his Putnam friends. In Leominster the public is divided in belief as to his guilt or in- nocence, \ Since leaving Putnam he has been employed in Boston and went to Wor- cester about three years , being employed by the Worcester street rail- way company, Two years ago he went to Leominister to becdme clerk at the Columbia house, remaining a few months and then resigning. About a year ago Fiye returned to the clerk- ship at the Columbia. Manager Gone, Hotel Closed. Because of the disappearance of Ste- phen A. Clark, the Lakeside hotel in Woodstock has been closed.

Although Noank produces almost every conceivable description of boats in wood, there is one class that has escaped the builders’ art, and that is the wherry, more commonly called the dory. This boat is used principally in connection with deep sea fishing and is carried in numbers by all of the large vessels of the Noank fleet. It is operated by two men or more on the shoals or other fishing grounds in time of cod or halibut fishing, or in the capture of other deep-sea fish, the schooner at such times serving as the base of equipment and storage of the fish. Of the number of wherries used at present or in days gone by not one was buflt here. The supply is ob- tained almost wholly from Newbury- port, Mass., where the builders seem- ingly hold the secret of the model of this particular boat. The wherry is peculiarily constructed and because of its buoyancy and. carrvine capscity serves its purpose admirably. almost a doubie ender, the stem ‘be- ing designated by its keystone shape, the bow coming to a sharp point. The boat stands high cuts in at a good angle to the water line from the gunwale. The craft has been known to weatlier severe gales when lost from the schooner for days at a time. The wherry is the only boat car- ried by the vessels of the local fleet. Friday Night Game Called Off.
