LANE, Leiephone T31 17 Chestnut Street From Long Society Building to Greeneville — 26 Voted Against it at Conference With School Officers—Rail- road Crossing Danger and Increased Distance to Travel are Reasons Given by Opposition. Vigorous opposition to_the proposed | consolidation of Long Society sthool with the Greeneville grammar school marked the conference held at the Long Soclety schoolhouse Friday af- ternoon. In response to an invitation from the town school committee, about 50 parents gathered in one of the school rooms to hear the plan proposed by the committee and to be heard in turn. The main points raised by those in opposition to the plan were the in- creased distance the children would have to travel back and forth from the Greeneville and Bridge district schools and the danger they would be subject- ed to in crossing the railroad tracks at the foot of Eighth street. The conference was called to order by Supt. Edward J. Graham at 3.30 o'clock, and he presided throughout. Superintendent Graham briefly stated the plan proposed by the town school committee. He said the town school committee feel that they can offer greater educational advantages at the Greeneville grammar school than they are able to provide at the Long Society school. At the Greeneville school one teacher has one grade and is able to devote all of her time to that grade, while at the Long Society school one teacher has two grades to look after. The consolidation would also conserve the time of the supervisors, as the music and drawing teachers would have two less periods a weck. From the standpoint of the educational ad- vantage, Superintendent Graham thought it advisable to consolidate. The superintendent also spoke of the economy the consolidation would af- ford to the school system as a whole. Regarding the distance the children weuld have to travel back and forth, he said it was no greater than in other scctions of the town. In closing he ed for expressions from those pres- ent regarding their feeling towards the matter. G. Warren Davis Led Opposition, G. Warren Davis was the first per- son to be heard and he thoroughly op- posed the plan, Mr. Davis said he believed that his views toward the matter coincided with the views of the majority of those present and that if they did not he was willing to stand correction. To all appearances the parents present substantiated his statements, for none offered contradic- tion. Mr. Davis said his forefathers theought it best to locate a school at Long Society and it seemed to him that they chose a very good place. He stated plainly his position, which in his own words was: “We want this school continued here in this com- munity.” He said he believed that if a vote was taken it would result in unanimous opposition to the commit- tee’s plan. “Consolidation,” he continued, “is detrimental to the community because the people do not have the opportunity of getting together at a community meeting. We want the schoolhouse kept here because we want to make it more of a community center than it has been, and we want the schoolhouse here because the children are here.” In regard to the greater advantage in going to Greeneville, where there would be one teacher to a grade, and where the time of the supervisors would be conserved, Mr. Davie said the people of Long Soclety are paying two teachers, that they have never complained against the expense of paying these teachers, and that they are willing to pay two more teachers, if recessary. Economy Not a Question. Mr. Davis said the matter of econ- omy to the taxpayers should not come into the question at all, but he also sald he didn’t mean to go to the other extreme and exercise extravagance, He spoke of the children who have at- tended the school from his own home- stead in the past half century and said they have numbered about 30. There are homes on Corning road, he continued, that contain about 35 children, and these children in order to get to the Greeneville school would have to go to what is known as Knapp’s corner and then across the bridge. GLIMPSES INTO LIFE OF MRS. LYDIA H. SIGOURNEY Given by Papers at Meeting of Park Church Congregational Society. There were over thirty in attendance at the regular meeting of the Parish House association, held in the Osgood Memorial on Friday afternoon, Mrs, A, N. H. Vaughn presided. After the usual reports and business, Miss Helen B. Royce favored with two well rendered violin selections. Miss Annie Taft accompanied. Miss Louise C. Howe read am inter- esting parer upon Mrs, Lydia H. Sig- ourney dwelling principally upon Lydia Huntley, the little girl. So many places in Norwich are associated with her memory that one can easily wand- er over her familiar haunts and im- agine the child of long ago. Al- though her writings are now almost forgotten and her style would seem pedantic, she was then esteemed sec- ond only to Mrs. Hemans as a fem- inine writer. Even abroad she was re- celved with great honor and distinc- tion. She was born in September, 1791, and her childhood was passed at the home of Madame Lathrop in the house now the home of Mrs. George 'W. Lane. She was a_precoclous child and books were her delight after she learned to read at the age of three. Not the kind of hocks young people of today are used to, however. The names seem strange in these days. No wonder she never used a short word when she could find a longer onc. She did fing the attic a good place to play in, with its two big chimneys and chim- ney closets and she was fond of the stories told her of Revolutionary days in Norwich. Her father served in the first regiment sent to Boston. Then there was the story of the burning of New London and more peaceful tales of distinguished soldiers—Washington, Lafayette and others, and their visits here. The garden with its old-fashion- ed flowers was described, the Sabbath as it was then kept amd the school days in the two ancient school houses still to be seen at Norwich Town. From the ages of ¢ to 13 these were ‘where she studled. Tho: like all true students, her studies did not end with her school days. After Miss Howe's paper, Mrs. Isa- bel Thomas recalled her personal rec- ollections of Mrs. Sigourney at whose home in Hartford she had often visited with her mother when stili a She recalled the gracious and elegant mannered lady with the silver curls and also her son and daughter, and old black mammy, almost as stately as her mistress. The meeting closed with two more delightful violin selections by Miss Royce, after which tea and cho- colate were served by the social com- mittee, Miss Mary A. Avery, chair- man, Miss A, N. Trumbuli, Mrs. Frank H, Pullen and Mrs, C. F. Sultemeyer. Oil-fire locomotives in operation at Buenos Ayres have shown an, economy of 20 to 30 per cent. over coal, At this point Superintendent ham stated that the children on Corn- ing road would be allowed to attend Bridge district school if it was nearer for them to go there than to the Greeneville school. Mr. Davis answered that even then the children would have to go out of their community. This would take care of the children on the lower end of Corning road, but the children on the othér end would have to go a much faither distance than they are going now. In answer to a question from Superintendent Graham, as to what the distance was from his (Mr. Davis’) home to the Greeneville school, he sai it was one and a half miles over road and a little over a mile across lota. Dangerous Railroad Cressing. Mr. Davis also spoke of the disad- vantage of being at a distance from the schoolhause, as it takes a long time to get there, and a long time to return home after ol, and this time could be more advantageously spent Another disadvantage of attending the Greene- ville school was the fact that the Greeneville bridge across the Shetucket is a very cold place in winter. A little farther aiong there is a grade crossing which Mr. Davis said he felt sure was the worst grade crossing in the state. Is it any advantage for the children to be subjected to that danger? he asked. In addition, the speaker continued, there are two more tracks which must be crossed before the children can resch the Greene-ille school. The speaker went on to point other disadvantages which would through the change. Included in these was the fact that some of the children would have to carry their dinners or else there must be some conveyance to carry them back and forth during the noon hour. Decrease Land Values Through School Removal Following Mr. Davis came M. K. Harvey, who also spoke in oppo: He toid of the disadvantages of clos- ing the school and said the land values in the neighborhood would greatly de- crease if the plan was carried out. He touched upon the improvements made in the building recently and said he believed the school should be main- tained. He did not believe in consoli- dation and eaid it was a detriment to the community. - Vote for No Change. Superintendent Graham then asked all in the Troom who had children in the school at the present time to rise, ani 26 responded. Mr. Davis then made a motion that all who favored the maintenance of the school signify by rising, and there was unanimous re- sponse. Chairman Murphy Explains Commit- tee’s Stand. ’ C. O. Murphy, chairman of the town school committee, was next heard and in his remarks he brought out the po- sition of the committee. He said the town school committee is desirous of offering the people the best educational advantages possible at the lowest pos- sible expense. It is acknowledged, he continued, that the larger schools can offer better advantages that the small- er schools. He said the committee was not desirous of taking away the Long Society school, but that they wished to find out the needs of the district and take them under consideration. Mr. Murphy said he knew of cases where parents paid taxes and then sent their children to the Greeneville school, paying additional tuition, and said this bore out the fact that there are better educational advantages there. He admitted the fact that there is danger in crossing the tracks at the foot of Eighth street, but said that these are conditions which face every community and over which the com- mittee has no control. In addition to Mr. Davis and Mr. Harvey, several of the parents present were heard during the course of the meeting, and all spoke in opposition. The matter will come befors the town school committee, who will con- sider the question and render their decision. at SOCIAL EVENING BY ORDER OF VASA.

Murphy said on Friday that he was the father of the bill, con- sidering it advisable that the city should have such authority, and at his suggestion the bill had been drawn by Corporation Counsel Joseph T. Fan- ning. Mayor Murphy said that he had not definitely nsidered what streets the sidewalk improvements would be made in, if the measure were passed, although he thought there were several streets where improvements could be made. After the bill has been passed by the legisltature it must be voted upon the electors of the city within two ears of the time of the passage of the act in order to make it operative. The following is the text of the pro- posed act: Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General A sembly convened: Section 1.

POLICE MATRON TESTIFIES IN THE ANGLE CASE. The Accused Told Her That Mr. Bal- lou Was Always a Gentleman. Bridgeport, Conn., March 12.—When the trial of Mrs. Helen M, Angle for manslaughter was adjourned in the su- perior court for the week late today, the state had nearly completed the presentation of evidence in support of its allegations that Mrs. Angle caused the death of Waldo R. Ballou at Stam- ford last June. Adjournment was taken until Monday, when it was ex- pected the state would conclude and the defense begin. Further testimony dealing with statements made by the state’s wit- nesses. Mrs. Saraphina Klahre, police ma- tron at Stamford was the last witness of the day. She had been sent to the Rippowam building at the time of Mrs. Angle’s arrest and had a talk with her there and on the way to the police station. Mrs. Angle had told her, the witness said, in response to her in- quiries, that there had been no quar- rel between herself and Ballou that night. “As God is my maker,” the witness said, Mrs. Angle exclaimed, “there was no quarrel.” She also de- clared, according to the witness, that “Mr. Ballou was always a gentleman.” In a later conversation the witness sald Mrs. Angle denied having said that “Mar Ballou was drunk” on the evening in_question. On another occasion, said the wit- ness, Mrs. Angle in talking about the case, asked the matron to kiss her if she believed her innocent. “I cannot do that,” the witness said _she an- swered, “unless you explain about cer- tain things.” Much of her testimony was corroborative of that previously given by Chief of Police Brennan and other witnesses. She was on the stand when adjournment was taken, CHARGED WITH HAVING PASSED SPURIOUS CURRENCY. An American, Two Spariards and 22 Mexicans Under Arrest at Douglass, Ariz.
