C. Murphy has just succeeded in disposing of the entlre issue of $479,000 at par. They are taken by the Boston firm of Her- rill, Oldham & Co. In communication with the brokers by telephone, the sale was made on Thursday, and Saturday Mayor Murphy received written con- firmation of the agreement of sale, The bonds are to be issued in denom- inations of $1,000, running 25 years, with interest at 4'1-4 per cent. 'They will be ready for delivery about March 1st, and will bear the date of delivery. In the condition of the money market the sale of bonds has been no easy matter and they have been disposed of at par, which is recognized as a good sale by those conversant with money conditions. The sale of the bonds saves the city over $3,000 a year in interest expenses as otherwise the money would have had to be borrowed on notes on which the interest would have been at 5 per cent. In the bonds sold there are two 1s- sues, the first authorized under an act of the general assembly approved June g S . At J 2 R% " 21, 1911, and the second under an act approved June 22, 1911. The first is- Sue was not to exceed in the aggre- gate $160,000, of which $75,000 was to be called and known as part of the water fund of the city of Norwich, and the remainder to be known as floating debt bonds. The floating debt bonds will gate $54,000, thus making the total of this first issue $159,000. The second issue was not to exceed 1in the aggregate $320,000, and the funds realized from its sale were to be ap- plied to the payment of the expenses incurred in providing an additional permanent water supply for the city, which was the Stony Brook reservoir. This expense was $820,000, 60 that the amount of this issue will be $320,000. With this new issue of $470,000 the total bonded indebtedness of the city will be $1,415,000, comprising the foi- lowing previous i City water- ‘works, maturing Jan. 1, 1923, $150,080; city waterworks, = maturing = April 2, 1931, $65,000; floating debt, maturing June 1, 1925, $125,000; courthouse re- funding, maturing April 2, 1931, $143,- 00/ sas and electric plant, maturing April 2, 1931, $227,000; gas and electric plant improvement, maturing April 1931, 3$60,000; floating debt, maturing December, 1948, $125,000.

Saturday was the last day of The Bulletin Cooking schol, which has been beld for a week in Olympic hajl, and although there was a pouring rain all the afterngon the interest was so great | that the hall -had a good sized crowd and the session was an enthusiastic once, That Miss Emma Hanko, the domes- tio science expert, who has given the demonstrations, has won the approval | of the women who have listened to her ‘was evident when she was presented a beautiful bouquet of flowers and also a purse of money, both coming as an | entirely voluntary expression on the part of those who have enjoyed the sesslons. In the course of the lesson Saturday Mis Hanko was interrupted again and again by enthusiastic applause. She has won the approval of all Norwich | and bas made many friends here. The | comments on the school are most com- | plimentary, and Norwich ladies are ex- travagant in their praise of Miss Han- ko and of The Bulletin Cooking school. One of the well known women of Nor- wich who has been attending each ses- sion of the school said: “All women | should study housekeeping problems | with the idea of gaining household effi- ciency, and the housekeepers of Nor- wich have had a most unusual oppor- tunity in this direction in the instruc-| tion given them by Miss Hauko. She has brought before us ideal methods of living which are none the less prac- tical and workable,and her work among us has been worth any trouble and ex- pense incurred in bringing her here.” Another one of the leading educators 8t Norwich said of Miss Hanko and the cooking school idea: “One purpose of a course in home, economics is to make women more efficient and valuable so- clally. The great work Miss Hanko is doing is just along these Hnes, and its | value cannot be overestimated.” Club women of Norwich have been actively engaged in the movement making for greater efficiency in indi- vidual homes and in civic housekeep- ing, and one of the leaders in this movement said that “anything like the domestic science course which has been conducted under the auspices of The Bulletin, and which teaches do- mestic sclence principles to the public, is most excellent and deserving of the most earnest support.” Answered Many Questions. ‘The concluding session was devoted almost exclusively to answering ques- tions. These covered every phase of | Miss | Hanko was able to .unravel many housekeeping tangles and solve many culinai problems for her cooking school guests. The menu was a par- ticularly fine one, and every dish was| thoroughly enjoyed. At the close of the lecture-demonstra- tion a regular siege of women waited to say good-bye to Miss Hanko and ex- press appreciation of the services she | has rendered. { The Bulletin Cooking schaol may not | rid Norwich of all cases of poor cook- ing, but it should certainly tend to im- | prove the health and_comfort and the enjoyment of many Norwich homes.
