Ina Month Would Never Know Hands Were Sore. 71 Bessom St; Lynn; Mass—"My trouble broke out with little pimples on my bands. They would fill with a watery sub- stance and would break. After a while the whole backs and palms of my hands were inflamed. I suffered awfully with the itching and burning. I would scratch until my hands were red, the itching and burning were so intense. ‘Would keep awake half the pight. I could not put my hands in water for just as socn as it touched them T would almost go crazy. For one year and a half I could not do my work. “I tried everythirg anybody told me about. My hands werc sore two years before T used the Cuticura Soap and Oint- ment.

Bennett nounced Thursday afternoon that he d been elected superintendent of schools at Stoughton, Mass., the town from which former Principal Hal R. Eaton, now of Attleboro, came to Dan- ielson to take the principalship of Kil- lingly high school. Principal Bennett goes from Daniel- son to Stoughton, at the close of the present school year, at a substantial advance in salary over the $1,600 he has been receiving here. It so hap- pened that he was almost simultane- ously elected to the Stoughton posi- tion and one in Windsor, this state, as principal of the high school, but de- cided to take the Stoughton place, not only becase of the larger salary but as well because of his desire to become a superintendent. Mr. Bennett holds a superintendent’s certificate both in Massachusetts and Connecticut. The advancement of Principal Ben- nett is a source of pleasure to his great many friends here. As a Killingly boy and a graduate of Killingly High school and of Brown university there is special interest in his career. He came to Danielson to take the local principalship four years ago, resign- ing as principal of the high school at Windsor Locks to do so. During his administration the local high school has been maintained at a high standard, has shown virility and progress. In January last it was in- spected and approved for the state by Dr. Frederic Farrington. In January, 1914, the school was approved for a period of three years by the College Entrance Certificate board and it was also approved (independently) in 1914 for college entrance by the Worcester Polytechnic Institute, This year’s graduating class will number 47 members, by far the larg- est ever graduated from the school. On the average, - elsewhere, less than 40 per cent. of the students who enter remain to graduate, but next month Killingly High school will graduate at least 60 per cent. of those who were freshmen four years ago, when Mr. Bennett came to the school. Over one-half of the class of 1914 averaged above 85 per cent. in their studies, throughout their course and the clads of 1915 also ranks high. The latest lists of those who are doing honor work in their studies includes 22 per cent. of all the students in the school. During Mr. Bennett’'s administration household chemistry, commercial arithmetic and general science have been added to the courses of study and have proved te her very valuable sub- jects. Special activities of the school have included the presentation of two oper- ettas, furnishing musical training for upwards of sixty students. In con- junction with the regular monthly de- bates by the Marietta Kies Debating society of the school a Freshman De- bating society was organized. Each vear at least one public or interschol- \stic debate has been held. Boys' and girls’ choruses have been trained and Children Cry FOR FLETCHER'S CASTORIA ERNEST M. ARNOLD PUTNAM, CONN.

Mrs, Louis Champeau, a daughter of the late Peter St. George of this city, and her daughter, Miss Louise, of Hartford, were in Putnam Thursday on business pertaining the settlement of the St, George estate. Clean-up Week. With the coming of the end of the Clean-up period in Putnam it is diffi- cult to gauge just how much has been done along that line this year. The committee of the Business Men's as- sociation issued circulars printed in different languages that set forth the desire for a general clean-up of the city, but the doing of the work was left to the initiative of the individual. No statistics are available as to how many engaged in the work. The expectation is, however, that not so much has been accomplished as last vear, when a regular organized cam- paign was conducted. Saturday being a half-holiday for a great many of the workers of the city the opportunity will be a grand one for making a fit- ting effort to brighten up the city. P. H. S.

In the superior court at Willimantic today it is expected that William Howard White’s (Brooklyn, Mass.) ap- peal from probate in the town of Thompson will be taken up. The ap- peal is under the will of Aaron White, who died years ago, and who was the founder of what has now grown to l}73e the library of the Windham County ar. A trustee of the estate who has handled funds died some months ago and a successor has been appointed. For his services the trustee received certain compensation each year and it is understood that the appeal to be heard is brought becase of a belief that the charges made for the ser- vices rendered by the trustee on be- half of his estate for a period of a have appeared publicly each year, Prize essay contests have been con- ducted, one winner also winning the state prize. Special exercises of a pa- triotic nature have been arranged from time to time and interest in athletics kept very much alive, A considerable amount of new equip- ment has Dbeen added to the school under Mr. Bennett'’s administration and he will leave it in first class con- dition. For the 1914-15 year Mr. Bennett was president of the Eastern Connec- ticut Teachers’ association. TEACHERS REELECTED.

In accepting the resignation of Principal Bennett a resolution of appreciation of his services here was passed. An important action = was taken by the board was pot to have a supervisor of music during the com- ing school vear. The town usually appropriates $500 for music in the school. This year a committee consisting of Robert W. Boys and Hector McConnell was made to see if arrangements can be made for buying the coal for the _ town schools at wholesale prices. committees were named to investi gate relative to transportation of pu- Risl, janitors and insurance.

Dr. Perry Watching Schosl Situation. Dr. Edward E. Perry, who has been making daily visitations to the Israel Putnam school, has taken cultures from the nose and throat of every pu- pil studying there, exception being made only in the kindergarten. The cultures taken number about 90, the attendance being greatly reduced through fear of diphtheria, and a re- port on them 1s expected from the state laboratory today. Dr. Perry said Thursday afternoon that if all the cultures taken prove negative, he will consider the Israel Putnam school the safest place in the city for a child, in relation to the like- Ithood of contracting diphtheria. Two cases of child illness reported to be fliphthm-m] as most juvenile trombles are now dlagnosed, whatever they may be if showing any suspiclous symp- toms, proved to be of a minor nature. The very closest watch is being kept over the children and there seems to be no danger of any considerable num- ber of new cases developing, so well is the situation under control MILK SHIPMENTS To Be Given Attention by Committee of Business Men's Association, Feeling that anything that, affects the farmer and his industry i8 of di- rect interest and concern to the bus- iness men who want his trade, study of the shipment of mili to Boston as to cost, privileges, etc., is to be taken up by the executive committee of the Putnam Business Men’s assoclation. At present the farmer is practically tied down to the proposition of send- ing his milk into Boston on the leased car that picks up shipments at many stations along the Midland division. The milk is sold to the company that leases the car and pays a price for the milk that is regarded by the pro- ducers as too low. A man, of course, can make an in- dependent shipment to Boston by ex- press, if he has a customer there, but this is not practical either from the standpoint of expense or convenience for the average farmer. The problem of getting greater free- dom as to shipments is the one that ‘must be solved, though careful consid- eration of it for several years past has not produced the desired results. The understanding 1s that railroad officials have shown a disposition to be very fair and helpful in a matter that is of vital concern to many of the farmers in this section of the state. Committees of Equal League. At a meeting of the executive board of the Putnam Equal Franchise league Thursday afternoon the following com- mittees were appointed for the year: Program, Miss Rosamond Danielson, Mrs. J. B, Tatem, Jr, Mrs. George L. Padgett; entertainment, Mrs. Walter Rich, Mrs. Etta Whitney, Mrs. Wil- liam’ Wheaton, Mrs. S, Nicholoff, Miss Breault; membership, Mrs. E. C. Morse chairman, with power to _appoint members ‘of committee; window cards, Miss Katherine Byrne, Miss Gertrude Jones. Announcement was made after the meeting that a county meeting with delegates present from the various leagues in the county is to be held at the home of Miss Rosamond Danfel- son on June 12. It was also announc- ed that Mrs. George Day and Annie G, Porritt of Hartford are to be here on Tuesday or Friday evening of next week to address the local league on the subject of the Congressional Un- ion, Franchise Class Day Parts Announced.

Because of the present status of international affairs extra- ordinary precautions had been taken to guard the president during his stay in Philadelphia. Seven hundred and fifty policemen had been detailed for taught more than 40 years, and ome has seen 52 years of service as a teacher.

Boise, Idaho, is exemplifying the get together spirit in promoting even- ing meetings in the schools. The board furnishes light (putting in ex- tra fixtures in several buildings), pi- anos and janitor service free for any evening’s = entertainment. At fur schoolhouses in different sections of the city on entertainment a week is given, these being furnished once a fortnight by a joint committee from the three large women's clubs of Boise and in the alternating weess oy ine mothers’ circles.

Seven detectives acted as a personal bdoyguard for Mr. Wilson and rode directly behind through the streets. In addition, hundreds of po- licemen led the procession and brought up in the rear. The City troop acted as a guard of honor. On his return trip from the hall the president rode for three miles along the streets al- most solidly lined with cheering peo- ple. Frequently he raised his hat and bowed. Automobile horns sounded a steady chorus. In the Broad street station of the Pennsylvania railroad several thousand people cheered as the president stepped aboard his private car. He smiled and waved his hat to them.
