In & recent issue, The Club Worker, a_publication devoted to the interest of clubs for women, has the following to_say about the Haile club: “If a club produced new ideas in accordance with its size, one wouldn't be surprised to have eight times as ‘many from the Haile club of Norwich, Conn., as from most of our clubs, but frequéntly very large clubs are very unwieldy and content to_ repeat that which former experience has justified, €0 that the constant originality of our comparatively new sister in Connecti- cut never ceases to surprise as well as fill us with pride.” Especially favorable mention is also made of the part the club played in the 250th anniversary of the town and of its novel “Festival of the Chrysan- themum” held during the fall.

P SMITH| The Drug Man, Franklin Square, Norwich, Ct. spria 50 cents. Reeves, Lewis R. Church and A. W. Dickey—regarding the list of exempt Droperty which they made out by di- Tection and for which work they hav presented a bill of $500 to the select- men and have been refused ent: The law provides that we shall turn in to town clerk our complete ork by Jah 31st of each year, and there Is no menalty imposed on the assessors if It Is not done at this time. In October last the local board went to Willimantic and had a meeting with Tax Commissioner Corbin and the as- sessors of this part of the state. Our chairman, Mr. Reeves, stated to Mr. Corbin that it was not possible for the assessors of Norwich to go on with equalizing the tax list and_do the ex- empt list besides. Mr. Corbin sug- sested that we talk it over with the selectmen, and if we could get our ex- empt list'4n to the town clerk so he (Mr. Corbin) could get it by July st #t would be all right with him. Upon our return we had @ talk with Mr. Lillibridge and he sald “to go on with our regular work and do the exempt list later, send in our bill and it would be,paid.” We supposed he had con- ferred with the other selectmen and town counsel, but later it finally de: veloped that he did not do so. In 1903 the board of assessors Te celved for services in assessing non exempt property $1,000 and signed the abstract book on Dec. 9th. In 1909 they Teceived $1.200 and Tyler D. Guy re- ceived $125 for writing the abstract book. The board of assessors have worked about 45 days longer than their predecessors did in 1903 on the regular list. The town meeting should fix the compensation of the board of assessors as it does with other town officers, compensating them fairly for the work which they actually perform. By so doing. the present situation would be avoided. Town Counsel Fanning says we are not legally entitled to our pay for this of the law, with the town counsel's knowledge, ‘consent and advice. The Norwich assessors have never per- fected their list strictly according to When they put flfl’flt’ in the fair market value and lve @ description of the same they e carrying out another part of the stute law.” This with the advice of the town counsel no board of assessors has ever done. This is the first been a complete list property of the town as far as'we are able to find out. We visited all of the and put in 57 days in per- the list and charged the. town fect of about $50 for $800, with mI- teams and carfare. ‘This exempt jist was taken under a law passed by the last legisiature, making it absolutely necessary that it should be done. This was known by the town authorities and, as before stated, was taken after the first list was made. Under a clear understand- 'ing with the first selectman it was ab- solutely impossible to take it eatlier and in some of the larger towns the work is not yet completed. The ob- Jection to ing this reasonable bill 1s based purely on a technicality. On Wednesday Lewis R. Church, one of the board, was in telephonic com- ‘munication with Tax Commissioner Corbin, who had been written to in regard to the situation, and he ex- plained that he had not been able to get an opinion from Attorney General Holcomb as yet, but he staten that he believes the bill should be paid. He considered the action of the board of selectmen the most absurd he ever heard of and stated that in several towns the list of exempt property is not finished even now. He declared that the bill should be paid and at the same time took occasion to remark that the board does not get the pay they deserve for their regular work. He will get an opinion from the attor- ney general later. SERVICE CHANGES IN TELEPHONE COMPANY Three District Chiefs to Be Located Hers, R. H. Gray, C. W. Dow and M. D. Millard, A complete realignment of the serv- ice of the Southern New England Tel- ephone company, including both oper- ating and administrative duties will 20 into effect on the 2d of May, when the service will be divided into three operating departments, to be named the commercial, trafic’ and plant de- partments, There will also be an as- sociated engineering department, and each department will be under & su- perintendent. Heretofore the whole operating bus- iness has been centralized at New Haven. The offices of the superinten- dents will still be at New Haven, but the state will be divided into four dis- tricts to be known as the southern, eastern, central, and western districts. In each district the work of each operating department will be in charge of a representative to e known as district commercial manager, district traffic chief, or district plant’ chief, as the case may be. Special Agent H. C. Knight, who has been at the head of the contract department for a number of years, is advanced to the position of super- intendent of the commercial depar ment. Mr. Knight is a former Wall- ingford resident and at one time was connected with the schools in that Dborough. The District Chiefs. The district commercial managers and their headquarters will be: E. A. Smith, Hartford; H. W. Embler, New Haven; R. H. Gray, Norwich; J. D. Veitch, Waterbury. The ‘four district traffic chiefs, with headquarters, will be: W. F. Nicker- son, Hartford; W. L. Ronald, New Haven: C. W. Dow, Norwich, J. Put- nam, Waterbury. District plant chiefs with head- quarters, will be: H. W. Brown, Hart- ford; E. L. Simmons, New Haven: M. D. Millard, Norwich; and C. H. Par- dee, Waterbury. The three superintendents will be: Commercial department, H. C. Knigh trafic department, C. B. Doolittle: plant department, J. W. Ladd, all with headquarters at New Haven, where also will be headquarters of E. V. Everitt, chlef engineer, and F. W. Lewis, general agent. Reasons for Change. The reason for this change, in ad- dition_to the increase of the Southern New England plant and operation, are the standardization of the whole scheme of company organization and operation so as to conform with the Bell system. A prominent officer of the Southern New England company, when asked whether this step was not preliminary to the meyger of the Southern New England company with the Bell com- any, denied that such was the case. he Bell compahiy owns about 14 per cent. of the Southern New England's standing capltal stock of $7,693,700.

The will of Calvin L. Harwood has been admitted to probate and Francis Harwood has qualified as executor. MT.

WOMAN’S COLLEGE. D. A. R. Chapter Making an Effort to Have One Near Meri Emma Hart Willard chapter. D. A. R, of Berlin, is making an effort to hive a certain women's coliege lo- cated in that town, on a site known es the Norton Hill, just a short dis- tance north of Meriden town line and on the main road from Meriden to Berlin and Hartford. It is understood that the college, If erected, will be in the nature of a me- morial to Emma Hart Willard, whose name the Meriden D. A. R. chapter bears. It is possible that former pu- pils of Emma Hart Willard will ald in financing the project. One plan is to have the college located on a ridge whish is included in the Norton prop- y. This site would place the proposed college about as near the center the state asis possible. A stake was driven on the Norton ridge by survey- ors some years ago to mark the exact central point of the state of Connecti- cut. This location is considered an ideal site for the college. The other site which has been con- sidered has Dbeen offered as an invol- untery gift by a prominent resident near Berlin street. This second propo- ested. A Lifter or a Leaner.
