KED ABOUT AT WESTERLY — ' Much Business at Tuesday’s Session of Probate Court—Fu. i neral Services For John Deady—Improvements in Pen- dleton Residence. A prominen: ciuizen of Westerly, one of affluence and influence, interested in the success and progress of his native town, is not in favor of applying city methods to a village, even, he says, if . advocated by members of a decadent church, who of necessity must go out- side to do a work that they sincerely believe will elevate the moral and so- cial condittons. He said Tuesday aft- ernoon, in conversing relative to the empoyment of a professional settlement worker for Westerly: s “Say, Westerly has its People's mis- | siom, its district nurse, its anti-tuber- culosis society, its Girls’ club, Campfire Girls, Boy Scouts, Kxchange for Wom- en’s Work, and all those sort of organ- izations, all deing well their specified work for the betterment of the people and the community; but, in my opin- ion, there is no more need for a set- tlement worker in Westerly than there is for the proposed plan to keep half a dozen horses stabled near the fire house in readiness to draw fire appa- ratus to an occasional fire. Sure, West- erly is & lively, up-to-date place, but the slze does not warrant modern city innovations. Not yet, but .soon—I Hope™ Many friends and relatives attended the funeral of John Deady, Rev, Dr. John Neal celebrating a mass of requi- em in St. Michael's church Tuesday.
