WILLIMANTIC LATCH- STRING IS OUT (Continued from Pade One) seph's school was especially worthy of note. The work of the children in crayons, the cut work and sewn work were very good. ACross two rooms transverse lines of tiny Japanese lan- terns, the work of little hands, were strung with splendid effect. Fourth grade pupils exhibited the apron, towel and sewing bag which is the work required for that grade. One child, 8 years of age, had a complete set, with the stitches fairly regular and the work very neatly done. he regular exhibit of selected pa- pers was made in all the grades. In grade VIII there were two sketches and two blackboard sketches made by Stephen Kulikosky. The boy's work, though untutored, is wonderful and in- dicative of marked natural artistic ability. In St. Mary’s school special atten- tion is given to an exhibition of pen- manship. Fifteen certificates have been received by pupils of the school, and in both schools very clever work ALLEN B.

Holbrook and Captain John Murray participated Tuesday evening, in response to a cal for officers, in an effort to catch three y men who broke into the Shepard cottage at Woodstock and committed wanton acts of vandalism. On the way over to Woodstock the officers passed a team that was being driven this way by a man who after- wards proved to be one of the em- ployes at the Shepard place, and with whom there was a companion. It w not until after the officers return here that they learned that the em- ploye had captured one of the fellows who had broken into the cottage, and was Dbringing him to this city when the officers passed the rig. The em- ploye never said anything to the of+ ficers and they, of course, not being mind readers, didn’t know that the iriver had a prisoner with him. Near- Putnam the prisoner jumped out the wagon and got away, all of which was of great help to the officers offering them additional opportunity for exercise on a wild goose chase. The net result of the eveninig work was not encouraging to the officers, though it gave them another experi- ence. Nothing was taken from the cottage, but cut glass pieces had evi- dently ‘been picked up and hurled against the walls. Other articles had also been smashed to Dbits, the dam- age amounting to considerable. The object of the destruction is not appar- ent. NOVELTIES AND SURPRISES.

Upon its being op- ened numerous toy balloons, each bearing the numerals of the class of 1916, burst forth and drifted up into the ‘dome of the hall. Some of the baloons bore streamers marked with “1916”. This feature proved a _real novelty and a great surprise. Other balloons were released during the pro- gress of the exercises and remained aloft throughout the afternoon. Another charming feature this year was the manner of the giving of the class prophecy, parts of this being as- signed to Misses Katherine Seward, Gladys Ash and Gladys Bain, gowned as witches and enticing light of the future from over the traditional witches® kettle. The ivy oration was by Miss Phoebe Beard. Each teacher was presented by the senior class a box of candy and a pink rose.
