Thirteen years ago when the ques- tion of a sewerage system was turned down in town meeting, the plan in- cluded a system for the whole town, and that meant not only the country districts but also Watch Hill, Brad- ford, Haversham and every part of the big town of Westerly. It included sections that could never derive the benefits of sewerage, but vet the tax- payers of these sections would be re- quired to help pay the expenses of construction and maintenance. That was a main reason why the project was defeated. Under the present plan only those who would receive the di- rect benefits would be requirsd to pay for the modern sanitary service. The plan now is to have a sewer- age district, which will comprise the compact part of the town, the village of Westerly, or perhaps more properly the Westerly Fire district. The plan of sewerage is completed, the cost of construction has been ascertaired as well as the cost of maintenance and the plan of final payment. All the de- tails have been obtained and printed in pamphlet form and placed in the pos- session of every taxpayer in the pro- posed sewerage district. This can be perused at leisure and every individ- ual financially interested can come to a clear understanding on the impor- tant subject, even to just what the expense will be to each individual owner of real estate in the district. The required legislative action hav- ing been granted, the taxpavers will be in position to act intelligently when the matter comes up for final action. Francis Medbury, who had arranged to drive a taxicab Westerly, for John Slocum, of Ashaway, will not continue in that business for the pre: ent. He was operating an automobile in Westerly without an operator’s li- the police were after him he went to Prov- idence Friday and received a license. Upon his return he was arrested by Policeman Mitchell for driving an au- tomobile without a license prior to the date of this new license and he was arraigned in the Third district court on complaint sworn out by Chief Brown. He pleaded guilty and the case was disposed of upon paymgnt of costs. Medbury had also been granted a li- cense to_operate a jitney by Cou cilman Maurice W. Flyrn, —superi tendent of vehicles, and this licen was revoked, as the holder is not the required age.

The painting is by the late Johannes A Oertel, artist _and clergyman, who once had a studio in Westerly, where among other works of are he painted the original picture, Rock of Ages. Besides paintings he executed much wood carving for ec- clesiastical use. Last summer number of his paintings were on exhi- bition in the art room, and St. Paul is one of the few retained by the Westerly Memorial and Library asso- cation. Announcements have been received in Westerly of the marriage of Jumes Alvin Pine and Miss Elizabeth Mc- Reynolds, in Modesto, California, April 1. They reside in Knowles, Mad county, California. Mr. Ives was member of the class of 19i2, Westerly High school, and served for a vear in the circulating department of the Westerly library. He then moved with his parents to California. He has a number of relatives in Westerly and vicinity. Secretary John H. Cranston of the Washington County Agricultural socie- ty, has issued the programme of races our teachers are getting a more pro- fesslonal attitude toward their work. Best teaching is done by those teach- ers who lose themselves in the inter- est of their schools. It is a most wholesome sign when a teacher soliclts criticisms and is eager for suggestions. In every case where teachers have committed themselves to this profes- sional policy there has been wonderful growth in teaching power. Teachers should see their great op- portunities. No one has greater influ- ence nod greater possibilities for doing lasting good for the boys and girls than our teachers. No business is more honorable, no calling more noble, Every true teacher should be proud of her vocation and should be impelled to her best effort. Building Character. Teachers who have the professional spirit will be careful in planning, thor- ough in preparation, eager to improve, anxious for suggestions, watchful for every opportunity to gain a deeper hold upon the interests of the pupils and the communities where they labor, and they will always be borne on by visions of the great possibilities of their work. The true work of the teacher is building characters, a work closely akin to that of the Creator of the universe. True, our work is hard, but the in- terest on our investment will be more than an hundred-fold if we remain constant and faithful to our trust. REAM MUST DEFEND SUIT. Court Orders Hearing on Former Wife's Charge of Fraud. A special from Saratoga, N. Y. reads: Louis Marshall Ream, who inherfted one-sixth of the estate of his father, Norman B. Ream, who left several mil- lions, must appear in court and furnish evidence to prove that the annulment of his marriage to Eleanor Davidson, an actress, performed by a justice of the peace in Hoboken, N. J, in 1911, was not obtained through fraud, ac- cording to a decision by Judge Henry V. Borst Saturday in proceedings brought by Mrs. Ream to have the an- nulment set aside. Judge Borst overruled a motion made by Ream’s attorney, Lindley M. Garri- son, formerly secretary of war, to dis- continue the proceedings on the ground that ex-Senator Brackett, Mrs. Ream’s attorney, had served the papers on J. Norris Miller, Ream's former lawyer, instead of on the attorneys who are now representing him. Trial of the %B was set for April 22 at Amster- m. Senator Brackett, in opposing Judge Garrison’s motion, asserted that the marriage of Miss Davidson and young Ream on Sept. 1, 1911, by Justice War- ring, was entirely legal; that Ream left his wife by parental direction, although he still loves her, and that Mrs. Ream was deceived when she consented to bring annulment proceedings a short time later. Ream is now in Massa- e palatial Ream estate is In ‘Thompson, Conn. ot 5 for the annual fair to be held at King- ston Sept. 12, 13, 14 and 15.

A motor car carrying four men in charge of C. W. Henry, an officer of the Fifth regiment, Massachusetts Volun- teer militia, is expected to arrive in Westerly this week with an outfit in- cluding special equipment for map- making and camping material. The officer in charge of the expedition car- ries letters from Governor McCall and Adjutant General Cole of Massachu- setts to the chief militia officers of the various states commending the plan. The object of the irip is to train a small group of men as motor scouts to supply the military authorities with detailed data concerning the roads, routes, etc. One thing that will be kept in mind will be the training of the crew of the car in military methods of gathering and transmitting information, making observations and collecting information that will be based upon the assumption that in case of a threatened invasion motor cars would be commandeered to augment railroad transportation facili- ties or to act independently of them. The car will visit the capital cities of the New England states, but its most interesting work is planned along the coast and the border. In the matter of the assignment of J. P. Clary von Carisburg of Westerly there was a hearing in the superior court before Judge Tanner on petition of the assignee, Frank L. O'Dell, for leave to sell interest in certain real estate in Rhode Island and Connecti- cut for the benefit of the. creditors. Petition was granted on condition that the sale price be not less than $800. When Douglas Fairbanks, son-in-law of Mr. and Mrs. Daniel J.

Not once in the five pic- tures he has made since last fall has the fearless young comedian balked at any situation required by his author. The first Fairbanks author and actor feature is called The Good Bad-Man. He has taken a leaf from the book of William S. Hart and creates a western cha ization with the emphasis on the comedy side. In the filming of the play advantage was taken of a round- up of cowboys down in the Mojave Desert_distri When Fairbanks ar- rived they gave him the ridicule that the tenderfoot merits and _receives. Before the roundup dispersed the star was setting a fast pace for his now steadfast admirers. Having finished The Good Bad-Man, Fairbanks has begun work on a new picture based on a scenario of his own. The only in- formation he is willing to give out con- cerning it is that it “contains a peach of a fight.” Rev. Edgar J. Curry commenced his pastorate of Grace fiathodi;( church Sunday. He is a native of Ohio and was graduated from Wesleyan with de- gree of A. B. in 1901 and from Drew Theological seminary with degree of B. D. in 1904, and received his master's degree from New York university in 1905.

The cottl'ge owned by Mrs. William J. Geary, No. 37 Tower street, was considerably damaged by fire Satur- day night and the furniture and in- terior furnishings destroyed. The cause of the fire is not known, as the occu- pants of the house, Mrs. Geary and her son, were not at home. The fire de- partment, although the fire alarm was at first misunderstood, made a quick run and had streams of water on the burning building in short order. The house and furnishings were partially covered by insurance. Dr. Percy A. Senior, who was barred from practice in Rhode lsland, left Westerly about a month ago, and lo- cated in Waterbury, is now in New Haven jail in default of bail.

This is an era of ascending costs, a period - of price advancement without parallel No statistical chart is needed to prove this— the effect of higher prices is fe/z by every- one, and is of real concern to all.” Itisa time for thoroughly weighing values, a time for taking advantage of every oppor- grerzroliors tunity that offers a genuine saving. Certain-teed Roofin% lowers the cost of building CERTAIN-TEED offers a substantial saving in roof struction, at this or any other time. It costs less to buy, less to lay, less to maintain and less per year of life. Because of tremendous pro- duction (the General makes one third of all the roll roofing made in America), and because of economies effected by enormous re- sources, modern machinery and favorably located mills, the General is able to make the best roofing at the lowest cost. CERTAIN-TEED Roofing is the General’s own product—from the raw materials to the finished rolls, it is made in the General's huge mills. It is made of the best quality roofing felt, thoroughly « saturated with the General's own blend of soft asphalts and coated with an impervicus covering of harder asphalts. This keeps the inner saturation soft, and prevents the drying out process so destruc- tive to ordinary roofing. That's why CERTAIN-TEED outlasts other roofing. It is guaranteed for 5, 10 or 15 years, according to ply. Experience proves that it lasts longer. CERTAIN-TEED is sold by responsible dealers everywhere at reasonable prices.
