JEWETT CITY Hllly Day at Baptist Sunday School Lawless Drivers Fined—Accident to David Hardman. Rally day exercises at the Baptist church Sunday were very interesting. In the morning there was an attend- ance of 160 to listen to the Rev. E. ‘W. Potter’s talk on What Is the Use of Sunday School. His principal point of the great necessity that the young members of the schools shail make the right selection, as they start on life's road was aptly illustrated with crayon sketches by G. H. Prior. The fourth anniversary of the Men’s Bible class ‘was celebratéd. There were thirty present who thoroughly enjoved the remarks of the teacher, Deacon John #. Phillips. He occupied the time in Sllustrating and explaining in a pleas- ing way the parable of the foolish vir- gins, found in the 15th chapter of Mat- thew. In the main Sunday school was the record attendance of 171. Af- ter the regular lesson there was an especially interesting programme, con- ducted by Supt. yron C. Willcox, which had been arranged hy Miss Ida 1. Foster, Miss Alice A. Brown and Mrs, Arthur M. Brown. There was a wong, Tribute to the Flag, by a double quartetie, pranos, Mrs. R. A.

The men were Ed Hartington of Stone Hill and Pete Morse of Voluntown: They were arraigned in the town court on Sunday before Judge H. H. Burnham and were fined $1 and costs in each case for intoxication, which they paid. Horace Knright, who owns the horse, made no complaiit of abuse of the amimal, and as it showed no marks of ill usage the complaint of cruelty to animals was not lodged. About the Borough.

A Big Breakwater, After ten years’ work and the ex- penditure of many miliions, the gov- ernment has at last completed its big breakwater at San Pedro. The break- wader is naarly two miles long and has a width of 200 feet at the bottom and twenty feet at the top.

The “romance of the reaper” has been written graphically and interest- ingly in sundry and divers magazine and newspaper articles to the enduring { glory of Cyrus H. MeGormick. Certain relatives of Cyrus M ™ick now have come to the front with certain charges and accusations which are well calculated to take some of the glamor and glory out of the romance aforesaid. Briefly speaking, the allegdtion is made | that Cyrus grabbed the laurels that should have decorated his respected father’'s prow. Chicago papers are making extendad mention of the publication of a serie of letters, statements and affida tending to show that Robert M. mick, and not his son Cyrus FL, the inventor of the reaper. It is set forth- in these statements that Robert McCormick after many yvears of ex- perfmentation built a successful reaper {in 1831; that during -several | thereafter he built ’\nd 50 son's d a lar, chines: that III‘! wife in h wvention to Cyrus, and that in rus obtained letters of patent on ention. In later -years: it is said Cyrus declared that his father's inven- tions ware failures and set up the claim that he himself built the first success- ful reaper in 1831. R.

Mr. Editor: A few days since there was a note in the editorial column to the effect that the socialist vote hod decreased 21 per cent. in Maine in the recent state election. According to in- formation received from.the state sec- retary of the solcialist party in Maine, the socialist vote for governor in 1908 was 1,416, the vote for Debs running ahead of the gubernatorial vote.” The ‘comparison should be made on the vote for gpvernor, and this year a few small towns yet to be heard from, the social- ist vote for governor is 1,568. With a smaller total vote, and in an off year, the socialists not oply held their own, but increased over 10 per cent. In Vermont in 1904 the socialists cast 1.15 per cent. of the total vote; in 13908, 1.29 per cent. ,and in 1910, 1 88 per cent. EDWIN PERKINS CLARKE. Mystic, Sept. 29, 1910. Attention of the Voters Solicited. Mr. Editor: T would call the atten- tion of the veoters of the town of No wich to the fact that a question of vital importance is to come before the town meeting on Monday night: Shall the town of Norwich appropriate a sum of money to pay the tuition fee charged town pupils at the Norwich Free Acad- ’]'hls is a question of large import; in fact, no question. of greater concern has been placed before the voters of this town in many a year. The im- portance of it, I fear, has not impress . ed itself uvon the. average voter. The fact that no such provision for a free high school education has existed here, and that this condition has been allow- ed to exist for some years, seems to many sufficient warrant that such action is uncalled for at this or any time. In my opinion, the longer such non-existenve has prevailed, the soon- er ought its existence to prevail. Prog- Tess does not consist in mere imitation of our worthy forbears, with all due regard to them and their wisdom. Progress consists in changing action to suit changed conditions. But is this a progressive step? If not, Norwich is in a class by herself; she alone of the many cities and towns in the United States is the progressive, up-to-date city educationally. The cities and towns of our-country, sup- porting some 9,317 nigh schools at pub- lic expense, according to the last re port of the ited States commission- er of education, are making needless, unwarranted = expeditures of public money through false conceptions of their dutiés to the boys and girls of {‘'our country, through misguided good intentions, and possibly through a false valuation of'the invdluable return for uch expenditure. In our own little tate, Connecticut. according to the re- ! port quoted above, there are 65 free public high schools. In towns and cit- ies with a population exceeding 8,000 there are 15 public high schools, and in 50 places numbering less than 8,000 people there are these schools main- tained at public expense. If. publiz provision for a secondary education is wrong, these cities and towns ought to be educated upn to a better conception of right and wrong in the expenditure of public money. Recent statistics from the report of our own secretary of the state board of education show that only six towns ~Clinton, New London, Norwich,North Stonington, "Winchester, Woodstock— which have free private schoels; that there are only twelve towns—Bethle- hpm Bridgewater, Canaan, Eastfiord, on, Killingworth, Lyme, Roxbury, §u](m Union, Warren, Westhrook— wiich did not maintain a high school or pay tuition at a non-local high school. T will not vouch for the a curacies of these statistics in toto; | hevertheless, they are sufficiently ac- | curate to show how Norwich compares with other towns in our own state.

The Torrance-Bennett disbarment hearing was taken up Wednesday at the point where it was left off Tues- day, with D. B.

He sajd that he understood Dr, Minor did very well on the matter of aale that he himself “got his” and the “boys” made out all right. He had never heard of an. offer of $6.000 for the Derby .property which had been referred to earlier in the hearing. Nevyer had talk- | ed with Musgrave over division of the profits, as he did not know Musgrave. Sullivan denied “that the gang were to wrack the estat Attorney J. P. Goodhart went on the stand to tell about a mortgage known as the Frost mortgage, and he said that the loan given in cennection there- with was paid by Dr. Minor, who was . managing the affairs of Mrs. Bassett and Miss Lillian. Mr. Sullivan, recalled, told of laning money to Lillian Basgétt, but-aid mot know how much. He took ths mont- gage to protect himself, and deeded the mortgage back to Miss Lillian because he had an agreement with her. This was that Sullivan should haveé a rea- | sonable sum for services, and he had been paid $250, and $325 te comne when the note which Dr. Minor had was set- tied. | James I Torrance, one of the re-| spondents, was calied and he said he was 35 years of age.
