THE PRINCIPALS’ CLUB PETITION The movement upon the part of the Principals’ club to have the town as- sume the cost of incidentals to pupils of the Norwich Free Academy doubt- loss finds much favor among the peo- ple, These term fees have been the sourece of considerable complaint for many years, and there i8 no question but they are 2 hardship upon man workingmen who have one or more chfdren attending the Academy. ‘What it means as a permanent tax has not heen stated, but at present it would not be likely to exceed a quar- ter of a mill tax. There are a great many arguments to be made In favor of this change, and few that can be made against it, except the regular check-sentiment that the tax rate of Neorwich 1s too high, and i1d be reduced, rather than be ,..inanently added to. This question will become an lssue for the first time in town meeting this evening, and it will come to the front in shape to be approved or rejected. Tn view of this, it is important that all who are interested in the question <hould be in attendance and be ready to act upon the question. It may be made ciear that there is real economy ‘n the town's assuming this expense. 1t should be treated as a live issue and not be allowed to go by default. IN THE TOWN RE- PORT, “On April 1, 1910, a new superin- tendent was appointed for and took charge of the almshouse. Besides tending properly to the ordinary du- ties of the position, he has given spe- cial care to the farm, which has been made to yleld probably more than the E. Con- A8 STATED at- combined crops produced in the ten preceding years.” This may all be true, bul it reads nwre lika a reportorial fluke than an official report from a bhoard of select- men. When statements are being made to the people from public officiuls they should certainly be marked by definiteness. If a statistical compari- son had been made it would have been of some value to the citizens, for it would have been incontrovertible; but in this shape we have an averment which is unproven and which on its face does not bear the semblance of a fact, Ten years is a long while, and the crops must have been mighty short in all those years, or else this crop is worthy of being held up to view as a bumper crop in its full statistical va- riety and value and exploited for the credit of the new superintendent and for the satisfaction of the taxpayers. If anything marvelous has been done over to the almshouse it should be giv- en such a positive and digunified form that all could see it and, seeing, be- lieve. This lovse way of stating things is not te be commended, even though the selectmen may be able at the meet- ing this eveuing to give the story in satisfactory detail. Official réports call for comparative statements, not for unsupported declarations which appear W be high-colored, but doubtful. We learn that the Pacific coast ar- tilierymen made nine hits ot of ten shets at a distance of three milles with Ave-inch gums in a fog. It is safe to mfl..l’e-mk;m- months; A year. 2 e ‘When' it comes to the Otis library appropriation at the town meeting to- night, it should be borne in mind that it is not second in importance to any other educational question to come be- fore the meeting.' As an auxiliary institution to all the schools of the town its influence reaches to the boundary lines, and this vote is of assistance to the children of every family if they will avail themselves of it. It has been con- tinued for so many vears and taken such a hold upon the family that lit- tle argument is needed to convince the voters of its real value to each and every one of them, as a school help and as a family source of edification and entertainment. All that is neces- sary is to warn the people of the dan- ger of its loss through the negligence of duty of thoge most directly inter- ested. The workingmen should attend the meeting and see that this measure is carried. AN EXPLANATION IN ORDER. When the selectmen sign a report making a general statement “that among the delinquent taxpayers are several whose abundant resources serve to emphasize the infjustice they do to the taxpayers who settle prompt- ly, ané the annoyance they cause the authorities who are often obliged to borrow money because of ,these inex- cusable delays,” it appears to be in order fo openly Inquire who ‘these neglectors of duty and annoyers of the seloectmen are. Since there Is no man above the law, all should be made to observe the law; and if there are rich citizens here who can pay but will not, they should be made to pay. The Bulletin was surprised to see such an official statement made, and if such an allusion was deserved thére is no reason why their identity should be kept a secret. If inexcusable delays are the cause of official annovance, Why should not those who are acting so ill-advisedly be officially shown up? THE st S8IZE OF THE TAX. The Bulletin believes that the tax to be levied by the citizens this eve- ning should be made adequate to meet the expenses for the coming year, whatever that may be. Tt does not readily comprehend why the tax should be larger for the com- ing year than for the past year, when a miil additional was made in 1909 to meet extra appropriations made in 1908 in excess of the tax voted. These extra expenses have not only been paid, but in excess of the sink- ing fund $12,000 has been used to re- duce the town debt, which shows that an 8-mill tax last year would have more than met the regular expenses. If under such cenditions a smaller tax would have been suficient to have met the expenses of the town, what is the mnecessity for increasing the town tax this year? If there is an extraordinary expense to be met it certainly should be stated. EDITORIAL NOTES. Vice President Sherman seems capa- ble of greeting adversity as a friend.

CHARLES SWANSON, JR,, MYSTERIOUSLY VANISHES Asked His Wife to Wait on Walk While He Spoke to a Friend in a Store. Stamford, Conn., Oct. 2.—The police ed today to make a search for Swanson, Jr., a civil engineer , who mysteriously disap- péared while out walitine with his wife Saturday night. Swanson and his wife, to whom he was married but fiv weeks ago, went to a physician’s 1 night, and on leaving there walked down the street a short way, when Swanson asked her to wait on the sidewalk a few minuies while he went into a store to e a friend. Mrs, Swanson waited for three liours, and when he did not make his appearan returned to her home, thir he would perhaps return during the evening.

As the coats will be shorter, many women are now shortening the coats of their last eseuson’'s suits, which brings the suit strictly up to date. Tt is likely that we will see a for- ward movement of Spanish allovers and edgings as the season advances. Signs are not wanting that Spanish lace will soon have a vogue not unlike that of days gone by. ‘With the advent of-fall, beaver hats are putting in an appearance. They are shown in outing shapes, being made of soft beaver in the dark shades. The hat brim is of medium width and is stitched with numerous rows of machine stitching to give it stiffness, but the crown is soft. With the beaver outing hat is worn a long chiffon veil to match the hat in color. Persian and Indian printings are so in the fashion front nowadays that endless beautiful trimmings in those colors are shown.

Printed cottons made rich with hed: braiding in gold or colors are origi -looking and well suited to the banded effects of this season’s dress. HEALTH AND BEAUTY. v, irregular eyebrows should be brushed lightly with a camel's hair brush (fippod in olive oil. The same treatment is good for stiff and harsh eyebrows and it is said to make them glow. For a sprained wrist or ankle, beat together salt and the white of an egg until the mixture is of salvelike thick- ness, then wrap about the sprained part, sprezading on a stout piece of cloth. It will make quite 4 strong and not uncomfortable brace. Bright eyves have a great deal to do with youth, so be careful of the eves. Don’t sit facing a strong light.

A clever hoisekeeper has solved the problem of econoiny, at the same time increasing the attractive elements of her dining room table. From Jume 1 to October she dispenseg with table- cloths, thereby cutting down the laun- dry bills and making the work of lay- ing the dinner table a little less. More- over, the mahogany table and chairs are put away and In their places are substituted a square table of soft wood and w chairs, all painted green. It may not sound preity, but the effect is charming.

TUnder each plate there is a doily. Except for these there is no linen on || the table and as the surface is not a large one there is no effect of barren- || ness. All the china used, having been Dbought for the house, has.-been chosen with regard to the green and brown color scheme and includes yellow, green and cream, with gold bands. None is expensive and the difference between this and a winter table is so great as to make it highly desirable for a summer house. NEEDLEWORK NOTES. Black silk mousseline plaiting for collar and cuffs and a sash girdle of similar mousseline de soie give a very French touch to certain simple frocks in bright or light coloring.

Nervousness affects the di- gestion, dulls the eyes, gives a strain- ed look to the muscles of the face, and, it allowed its course, will even make the hair thin. So the woman who wants to be bzautiful must keep an eye upon the state of her nerves. The best oure for nervousness is reat. And resting is an art known to few women. Man finds inducement to repose in his pipe and his trousers pockets. Womankind, having neither the narcotic influence of the pipe nor the trousers pockets to imprison her nervous fingers, is ever active. The only way she may get repose and re- lax tha body and nerves is by actual will power. Carrots are prescribed by physicians and beauty doctors alike as a cure Baked beets served with a little melted but saucs, salt and pepper make a delicious vegetable course. When a hurried but good dessert is needed, try chezse crackers. Put grated cheese on the crackers, set them in the hot oven or put them under the broiler until the cheese toasts a light brown. Serve either hot or cold.
