Had to Lay Off Saturday and Steamer Lowell Took Her Place. A very beavy fog hung over the har- bor on Saturday morning, and when the steamer Block Island, which had gone to the middle of the new dock to coal, as is the custom, started to come up to the steamboat dock it was almost impossible to pick the way. In man- oceuvring about the rudder of the boat was struck against the piling. injuring the rudder post, the boat having been sent up backwards from the coaling point. It was impossible to use the boat and the Lowell was sent from New Lon- don to Block Island to make the trip. The Block Island was toweil to River- side Saturday afternoon about 1. o'clock by tugs Miles Standish and Cassie, where she was hauled out and the repairs completed so that it was here ready to leave Sunday morning, and made the trip without incident. Becauge of the uncertainty of the service, the postoffice department has taken the mail carrying privilege away from the steamer Block Island. Thur: day the department sent orders to that effect. * The mail has been carried by the steamer to Block lIsland and Watch Hill. Every season the steamer con- tinues carrying the mail until the end of the season, but it was suddenly tak- en away Thursday. It is said that the steamer has been late several times and then there was dissatisfaction because recently _the steamer has omitted several trips, owing to stormy weather. The mail under the new arrangement goes via Providence. POQUETANUCK NOTES. School Opens Tuesday Morning—Per- sonal Notes. Mrs, William H.

The vounger children have been un- der the care of Miss Katherine M. Lavin of Boston, a student in Miss Si- mond's_kindergarten school of _this citv. She has shown marked ability in her work and has given valuabie assistance in the conduct of the play- sround. Her knowledge of »askel weaving enabled her 1o give lessons [ to the older girls and the specimens of their handfwork in that art are in- teresting and ‘attractive, Mrs. F. M. Hollister has had gen- eral charge of the plavground, being ably assisted by friends of the children who hate given some of the lessons incooking and sewing and helped in other ways. Some article of food pre- pared by the older girls was served almost every day to the boys and girls present, thus affording opportunity for learning the womanly art of pre- siding at the table and serving re- freshments fo their friends, Lessons in plain sewing, hemming and darning were given. Dish towels and holders were made for use in the playhouse, and a rag carpet for. the playhouse' floor. The kindergartners had mat weav- ing, clay modeling angd crocheting, be- sides enjoying the sand box, swings and seesaw and learning somie pretty motion songs and kindergarten games, The older boys had a number of games of baseball which they greatly enjoyed, and Rey, J. Howard Adams, pastor of the Baptist church, gave a few practical lessons in carpentry, which, with the werk done by the boys on the playhouse, introduced them to some of the uses of \the more common tools with which every boy and man should be familiar. The successful Tea Garden held in July netted $65, which met all ex- renses, ineluding the building and fur- nishing of the playhouse, and pur- chasing the boys' tools and the kinder- garten material. A number of visitors during th summer expressed great interest in the work and compared it very favorab with the more familiar and extensiv experiments which are being tried in cities and larger towns. The North Stonington playground is one of the very few attempts in that direction in rural communities and has therefore attracted some attntion from those who are interested in the movement throughout the country. It is planned to have an exhibit of the playzround work at the Grange fair which is to be held September 20 and 21 One of the most gratifying features of the movement in the town is the hearty. co-operation and fellowship in the work by so many people in the communit; Everything that brings neighbors and members of churches and other orsanizations together in some com- mon effort for the welfare of the com- munity is valuable aside from the di- rect good which comes to those who are the &pecial object of the effort.
