Ames has com- tration in the schools of Killingly- the elementary schools—Is 702 this year, an increase of 66 over the total last year, The registration by schools follows: some member of the board, as they should be. We have offered some suggestions to the secretary for still further improvement in the records, which we hope our successors will find another year. All Are Correct. The ‘treasurer’s books and vouchers have been examined as to receipts and disbursements; also the books of the trustees of the Shubael Hutchins fund, and all are correct and in excel- lent 'shape. In town affairs ‘it may not be the duty of the auditors, as prescribed by law, to criticise the administration of rs, but at least we think it our duty to make certain observations and recommendations to tite voters that if adopted may help in reducing the expenses of the town and making it nearer to getting expenses down to its income, Pay for State Road Work. We notice that the selectmen keep all sccounts and pay all bills for work on trunk lines and state roads. This work is entirely under the direc tion of the road commissioner and has nothing to do with town affairs, the cost being paid by the state. The bills for this work should be rendered di- rect to the state and payment made by them. The amount represented this year as paid by the town and re- covered from the state is something like $3,900. We recommend this be dropped from the town books. We sre informed only one other town in the state pays these bills and keeps ac- selectmen to have all bills for the fis- cal year represented in the report. As it 1s, we belleve it a fact that July and earlier bills are sometimes with- seat of a big street eeper engaged in brushing the highway near the hom: of George W. Whittlesey, near the Rhode Island border, about 3.20 Thurs- day afternoon when a big touring car bearing a New Jersey registry came speeding down the hill and dashed iInto the piece of road apparatus. The lat- ter was badly damaged, as was the touring car, which had a forward wheel ripped off.” The pair of horses draw- ing the sweeper escaped uninjured. They are the property of L. M, Keith of_this city. The accident was due to the fact that the autoist, riding alone, believed the cloud of dust raisea by the road sweeper, and which was obscuring the right of way, was smoke from a fire, through which he proposed to daeh as quickly as possible. He could not see the sweeper and the first he knew of its presence was when he felt the shock of hitting it. Leduc was pitched off the seat into the highway, which ls the main trunk Mne from ' Putnam to Providence. He was badly dazed and bruised. but recovered considerably af- ter a time.
