Frank Tillinghast of Central Village an 1llimaptic, the senatorial committee, sounded the call this week and the delegates are to convene in the town hall, Willimantic, Saturday, October 3, at noon. If there are candidates for the honor of senator from Williman- tic, they are remaining securely in the shade, for the men intimate with the lozal situation don't talk, Perhaps, and wery probably, they thimk that the Test of the district deserves a chance at public office, and so the six indi- viduals who are named, with a vary- ing amount of certainty are: Attorney Bradford W, Danielson of Plainfield, Charles O. Thompson of Pomfret, both members of the last legislature; Elmer E. Bennett, who has represent- ed Canterbury in the legislative halls several tims; Urgele Lafranc, Plain- field, representative at Hartford in 1909, Charles H. Blake of Brooklyn, the “senatorial nominee in 1912, and William H. Burnham of Scotland. He L3 the fact in his favor that Scotland ‘hasn’t a_ senator for ages, but S0 has Mr. Bennett of Canterbury. And there may be upsets in ten days. The democrats of the 29th antedate their political opponents four days, holding their senatorial convention in Willimantic Tuesday, Sept. 29. Frank . Fenton of Willimantic and Merritt aliup of Pomfret are the mames in e fleld, with the balance in favor of indham’s. affable town clerk. SIX WEEKS LONGER Will Be Require to Complete New Hinh Schoel, Although All Rooms Can Be Occupied by Monday Next. ‘At the Windham High school the builders and the sub-contractors are excellent progress and by Fri- day of this week, or by Monday of next, Principal E. A. Case is planning to occupy all the rooms of the.capa- clous and beautiful new building. Up to this time the classes have been oc- cupying the same rooms as at the beginning of the year, and because of the crowded conditions, the schedule has been somewhat modified. Next ‘week, however, the high school will have the whole educational plant at its disposal and then the normal schedule will be possible, The blackboards will all be in_this ‘'week in all the rooms and the floors are mnearly all laid. Men have been Plli(inl them down in the chemical aboratory this week and the room is all in readiness for the tables. which are on the way. This department, therefore, will soon be in activity on its_practical side. But while the“school rooms will be ready for use by next week, the build- ing in its entirety will not be com- pleted for six weeks. There is much work to be done in the basement, where floors are to be laid, and paint- ing to be done. The work left how- ever, will interfere very little with in- struction and order and system will succeed the rather unprecedented con- ditions of this fall, which, it. may be said, have besen met efficiently and successfully by cooperation between teachers and student body. TO SAVE $2,000 INTEREST.

The earnings of the city water de- partment- in the past few years are noteworthy. Five vears ago, in 1909, a sinking fund of $50,000 was estab- lished and used to retire bonds that came due at that time. Thereupon another sinking fund was established and the earnings of the water depart- ment were put into it. That in half a decade they have totalled $42,000 speaks for judgment in planning and efficiency in management. And it is even thought that to meet the bonds which, issued in 1885, come due next month, a sufficient number of collec- tions may be made by that time in the water department to reduce the sum the city must borrow from $8,000 to $7,000. As soon as this borrowed money is restored by the carnings of the department, the procedure will be to establish another sinking fund. , Substituting at Owing to the illness of N Davis of the commercia in the Windham High s struction writing is being given by department hool, the in- in stenograrhy and type- Miss Bar- num, who comes here from Springfield.

He attended the common schools in Vol- untown. His father was a carpenter, and the son very early in life develop- ed ability in the same calling. Much against his father’s wish, he learned the trade with him, and showed such a faculty that he was encouraged to con- tinue in the business. He went to Spring Valley, N. Y. continuing to learn the trade in the finest work. Later he returned to Voluntown, doing a great deal of work in Jewett City, finally locating here in 1891. A large per cent. of the buildings in the bor- ough, including the Jewett City cream- ery, were erected under his contracts. In January, 1903, he entered the coal business in connection with his car- pentering, and later formed a partner- ship with his son Leland, under the name of the Peoplé’s Coal company. Mr. Green acting as the treasurer. Mr. Green was an Eplecopalian, be- ing a. member of Christ church in Nor- wich, and often attended the services held at Slater: library hall. In poli- tics he was a conscientious democrat, maintaining_strictly in political lines what he believed was right. He had served the borough as one of its bur- gerses arid had been one of the town assessors for several years, being nom- inated on the ticket this year. He had also served on the board of relief. In Voluntown he had been a member of the school board and for several vears acted as school visitor there. Mr. Green was a member of Mt. Vernon lodge, No. 75, F. and A. M. having first joined the Widows' Son lodge in North Stonington. He married Annie Rowena Davis of Rockville, R. I, in 1885, and is sur- vived by his wife and four children, Anna Belle, Leland and Lemuel Green of Jewett City and Jessie Green of ‘Willimantic. He leaves leaves two sis- ters, Mrs. M, E. Wilson and Mrs. E. A. Ray of Jewett City. Mr. Green was of an estimable disposition, possessed many traits admired by all who knew him.
