A most interesting meeting of the W. C. T. U. of the city, over which Mrs. S. Howard Mead presided, was held in the chapel of the First Con- gragational church Friday afternoon. After the devotional service, the hymn For God and Every Land, to the tune America, was sung. A paper on The Object of the Organization was first given. lis object is to interest others in our work in a way they have not thought of before. It has been hard to get people to join a practical work- ing organization of this kind. It had its origin in Hillsborough, O. Miss Frances Willard devoted her life to its work. The solos Sometimes Between Long Shadows and A Spring Song were ren- dered most beautifully by Miss Pearl M. Jackson. The statement was made by Mrs. Mead that during one week at Madelra, Africa, there were 78,000 cases of lig- uor, 36,000 barrels of rum, 800,000 dem- ijohns of rum, 24,000 butts of rum, 960, 000 cases of gin, 15,000 barrels of ab- sinthe passed the port of registry, thus making darker Darkest Africa. Among facts of importance brought out were: Students of the University of California recently voted five to one against the use of any form of intoxi- cating drink at any of their functions; during many strikes where saloons have been closed in this and other countries the militla have not needed; the temperance ideals of the president of the University of Veér- mont; he siates that the time will come when no college professor using liquor and wines on his table will be retained. A telling poem, It Couldn’t Be Done, with the refrain He Did It, was read. A Dboy's composition on prohibition full of wit and humor brought to a close a meeting rich in incident and fact and power to hold the close at- tention of those fortunate enough te be present. YALE FAVORS AMERICAN SHELL FOR THE RACE. 'Varsity Crew Made Time Row Fri- day Night in 22.03. An hour after the Harvard crew had gone over the four mile course on the Thames in record time Friday evening, the Yale 'varsity elght, un- der conditions not to favorable, row- ed the four miles in 22 m'autes and 3 seconds. Denman, one of the strong- est oarsmen in the s 1, was out of E t bec of a sli , and his place wos taken by Bug- which hade the boat somewhat slower. he water was choppy at the start and there was a heavy swell from the harbo) hich made it necessary B0 upstream further to start. The stroke for the first mile was 34, but it was dropped to 30 and 32 for the last mile. The freshman crew was waltinf at the three miles mark and with a rae- ing atart heat the 'varsity at the fin- igh by over a langth, A flotilla of ten pusited up to power boats folllowed the 'varsity over the course, making swells which sorne- w arded progress, It I8 now likely that Yale will dig- card 18 pew English shell in favor of an Americai boat, as e former boat does nto ride so easily. Among the isitors today were 2 Cagrbin, of football fame, and half a dozen mem- bers of the reunion class of 1897, THERMOS SCHOOL FOR NORWICH MEN.

President Walker has taken this step to carry out his statement that he would be manufacturing goods in this city by July 1, and will have a force of New York and Nor- wich men to put to work.

Presldent Joseph T. Fanning, who was concluding his term of a year, called the meeting to order, and Clerk C. Leslie Hopkins, who has held this position for 24 years successively, read the warning. Distriot Report. In this the first matter was to re- ceive the distriot committee report, which was presented in printed form and read by Clerk Hopkins as fol- lows: The school of the Falls district will close its labors on June 20th, under the management of the same efficient corps of teachers as last year, with the exception that Miss Elizabeth T. Hayes retired from the school some weeks afo. This she found necessary to do on account of her health. Miss Alice M. Mullin, the regular substitute teacher, immediately assumed charge of Miss Hayes’ room and will continue the work until the close of the vear. The work which the district com- mittee mapped out to do under orders from the health officer, Dr. Lewis, has been completed. As a result a new hard wood floor has been laid in Miss Stetson’s room, and new seats install- ed, so that the room is in excellent re- pair at the present time. This work was paid for out of our regular income, and as a result the committee will not be able to close the school year with all obligations pald without asking the permission of the taxpayers to borrow a sum sufficient to meet a part of the teachers' payroll, wich will be due the latter part of the month. This is probably the last report that will ever be made by the district com- | mittee of the Falls district, as before another vear rolls around the commit- tes will have been legislated out of office, and the burden assumed by the town school committee of Norwich. ‘We hope that the management will furnish to the children of this com- munity as good an opportunity for a graded school education as they have had in the past. While we as a district cannot turn over to the town of Norwich, in com- pliance with the recent vote, property free from debt, as some of the districts do, we feel that the school which has tem reflects credit on those who have had to do with the management. Treasurer's Report. He also reported as treasurer as fol- lows: Recelpts—Balance on hand June 16, 1911, $487.89; of Norwich, $2,323.12; from Jerem Lynch, collector, 1911 list, $1,510.7 1910 1ist, $48.60; tuition, $15.

Con- nor, whose terms as members of the board were expiring, were re-elected | for three years, and Herbert B, Cary re-elected for one year. Jeremiah Lynch was re-eleeted collector, the clerk casting one ballot in each case by direction of the meeting. The compensation of clerk, treasur- | er and collector was fixed as the same as last year, and the committee of three to fix and approve the bonds of treasurer and collector was re- elected as before, consisting of A. A. L. Beckwith, ¥. H. Pullen and . Woodard, Authority Given to Borrow Money. Upon the item in the warning as ing for authorizing the district to bor- row such a sum of money as needed to pay final debts, Treasurer Hopkins explained, at request of the president, that the necessity for this arose through the need, of doing the work ordered by Health Officer Dr. Lewis, which cost about $300, an amount which the district had not anticipated, so that probably about $100 would be needed to pay some salaries and a few small bills. A vote was passed to authorize the proper officers to borrow the needed money. President Fanning Explains Consolida- tion. This concluding the matters in the warning, President Fanning addressed ng with an explanation of was necessary in view of the it | approaching consolidation for the dis- why | trict to meet and elect officers as if it were to continue for another year. | He referred to a recent decision pub- lished in the papers which sustained | his views that the vote of the town | for consolidation had wiped out the districts, although some had held oth er opinions because of special char- ters under which school districts were formed, and he said that while he aid | not anticipate any trouble in Norwich, since all districts seemed to be com- | ing in graciously to the comsolidation, | he thought to go on with the elections | and maintain the organization of the ! districts just as if no consolidation | were coming. | trict in a position | business necessary July 1. Whether there should be any furth: maetings of the board or not, the di: trict had made a good history in the past and could be congratulated, since it had acted generously towards the young entrusted to its care and had produced results that had been sat- isfactory in the education it had given its pupils. He felt it an honor that he could say in after years that he had at orie time held the presidency of the poard and he thanked those who had served the district in any capacity.
