This number will bz augmented by three more entrants today. The attendance at the high school is the best broof pgasible of the place of im- portance olds with, the people of this IO\\n mu those surrounding, and it is steadily increasing each year. This year)s senior class, with 55 stu- dents, is the avgest number of pros- pective graduates the high school has eyver had. In the incoming class Prin- cipal E. A. Case has not as large a registration as last fall, there being but 110 first year students. This is ex- plained by the fact that the eity gram- mar schools did not graduate as many pupils as usual in June. On the other hand, ‘the number of out of town stu- dents attending high school is larger than ever. The school orchestra met for its first rebearsal on Monday afternoon at 1.30 -o'clock under the direction of C. Clinton Hebmold, and they will meet at the same hour weekly during the vear.

Prosecuting Attorney Bugbee said that the statutes made the offense a felony and he favored placing the accused before the higher court. Attorney Danahey wished len- fency in view of Murphy's respectable past and of the fact that Murph: wife was willing to take him back, after a talk they had had Sunday night. Murphy, he said, was willing to pay the costs as soon as he could get work and earn money. and the attor- ney asked that Murphy be vlaced in the hands of the probation officer.

Willimantic was filled with a smal army of men Monday night awaiting the opening of the Willimantic fair. Fakirs seemed to be around by the dozen. Ten licenses were given out Monday by Chief Richmond to people who wish to carry passengers, al- theugh scme of these were tauken by local liverymen who are in the husi- ness the year around. City Clerk Seripture gave out a similar license to the driver of a four seated auto 'bus who follows the fairs for revenue there 1 sin carrying passengers.

To Vote on License. The petition for the vote on the li- cense question -in the town of Kill- ingly is completed, 8o there is no long- er any doubt about having the usual contest over the issue. Post-Season Games. ‘Wauregan and Tri-Village teams of the Eastern Connecticut league are to play a series of three games, the first one at Wavregan Saturday of this weck. Tri-Village finished one game ahead of Waurezan,. but Wauregan claims a tie, this based on’a game over which there has -been dispute. The series will probably be a hotly contest- ed one. i VISITOR TO CANADA Some Enlightening Information as Election Draws Near, Gets Local Canadians are much interested in the general elections in Canada on September 21, with reciprocit: issue. The liberals, whosc cause most of the local Dominionites espouse, are in favor of ratifying the pact passed Dby congress: tka conservative, or tory, party, is bitterly opposed to the pro- posed trade agreement. A local man Wwho has just returned ~from - New Brunswick, found the province aflame with the Issue. Politics are “taken mighty seriously up there.' The de- Dates. arc commonly bitter, Out of personal curiosity the local man asked a party made up of liberals and conservatives if it were true, in their opinions, that reciprocity would result in reducing the high cost of liv- ing in the states, stating to them that this was a popular belief across the border, The replies were a surprise. All wére agreed that in the case of meat. eggs, butter, efc, reciproeity would probably not help’ force down prices in the United States. And to substantiate their claim they Invited and took the Danlelson man on a trip of inspection through-'the mar- ket place of the city of St. John There ford products were ticketed in cess, : Persconals. John Logen of Pawtucket, R. In plain_figures. Prices for meatsiwere practically “the same a8 i eastern Connecticut; much of the beef was the Amerjcan produet; butter, T s aurzonndlnx counlry wu sx cents a pound—the same price as charged in Danielson Monday; nfml\y lrelb eggs were 32 cents a dozen—they, 35 cents. in Danielson Mornday. “Therghl.l beerr an_increase of 100 per cent” in the cost of living fn the maritime provinces in. {Ne' Dast v years,” said one of the conservatives, “that lofg ago reciprocity might have helped reduce the cost of some products to “the population of New England, but I-doubt-if it would do it today: 5. “Six or eight years ago 1 could g0 down to the slip and pick out a fine big lobster and pay the fisherman 4 cents for it; today a similar lobster costs me forfy cents.’ I could buy had- dock that would drag on the ground as 1 carried them home, for ten cents apiece: now the price has more’ than tripled. - I think you people of the states will be disappointed in what you expect reciprocity to do in cutting the cost of living.” ~And the liberals did not dispute these claims, +They favor the agreement because they see other advantages to Canada in_its op- eration. So it would seem that Connecticut farmers need not worrk a whole lot about ruinous prices prevailing on their products if “reec-iprocity,” as they say up there, becomes a reality. The cost of living in New Brunswick is as high today as it is in Connecticut —fancies to the contrary notwith- standing, this applying strictly to food products. There was a time in eastern Canada when potatoes, and good ones, could e bought for 20 cents a bushel, chickens for 49 cents a pnir ‘but those days are no more, T pay for what they eat up there now. Ask them why and they cannot tell. They only know that it's true, Briefs and Personals. Mrs. John Greely attended the milli- nery openings in Boston and New York last_week.

In the city court Monday morning, Deputy Judze Mahlon H. Gelssler pre- ‘siding, Eugene Laparle, 20, and Fred Brassord, 18, both of this city, pleaded Builty to a charge of rape on Agnes Logan, 14, of Thompson. The affair happened here last Fri- day cvening when the girl, who, it is “said, has made frequent visits to Putnam, and is known familiarly as “Irene,” came here for a trolley ride. Agries is not oyer-strong mentally, has previousiy been noticed by the po- lice when she came here at night, and was ordered off the street by Sergeant Hayes previous to falling in with La- parle and Brassord, who took her to a building on Sthcol“street, Laparle having a key. Both pleaded gullty to the charge ‘when presented in court Monday morn- ing and, cach, in default of $500 bonds, was committed to jail to await trial The police did a good piece of work in bringing them into court. The Logan girl was an inmate of the Windham county home for chil- dren, where she was sent from the town of Hampton, up to about two years ago, when she was placed with a family in Thompson. WOODSTOCK FAIR. Entry Day Monday—Rain Does Not Intorfere With Receipt of Exhibits. Monday was entry day for the 53d annual fair of the Woodstock agricul- tural society. It rained, too, Monday, but the way in which the entries, at- tractions ‘and exhibits came. in only went to prove that it s going to take more than a little weather to spoil what is a consistently good show—the only really old-fashioned fair that Windham county can now boast. The officials who had in charge the matter of receiving exhibits and allot- ting a space had what might safely be termed a busy day. There was an all-day demand for their services, which were cheerfully given, as the officials were pleased “with the indica- tions for & very, successful exhibition. Every ‘deparimént will have a full quota of exhibitors. sonfe of them more. This is true of the poultry de- partment, which will be crowded, and of the ladies’ department, where the displays are more complete and com- prehensive than ever. Secretary Leonard H. Healey, who is master of the state grange, was op- timistic Monday night over the ’pros- pects of having a fair fully- as satis- factory to the society dnd pairons as has been any of recent years. » WATER COMPANY Wante More Money for System Than Officials Have to Spend. The matter of the city of Putnam purchasing the water system of the Putnam-Water company is one that i not rapidly coming to a point where a transfer of the property can be brought about with satisfaction to both sides conce d, The water com- pany wants more money for the piant than the commission representing the eity in the negotiaticns is willing or has offered to pay and until the ome side and the other get mearer together on price than they have up to this time, there is little prospect of the city getting the property without going through the legal process provided for in the special act of a previous legi ature empoweging the city to acquire La water works system. The committee representing. the city has offered a certain amount for the water company's property: the water company has named the figures that thev feel they ought to receive. The water company's figures are man, thousands of dollars above the com- nijttees appraisal and there the situa- tion: rests and has rested for some time. It is possible, it is said, that the city’s committee, as a matter of busi- ness acumen, might pay a little mor than their original offer on behalf of the municipality to get the plant, if litigation, always cxpensive, could be avoided; but up to this time conces- sions in price have not been forth- coming from the water company.
