MYSTIC Birthday Party—St. Mark’s Parish to Aid in Relief Work—Wedding Invi- tations. there is plain intimation that there will be a e when a town com- mittee is selected in the %all. It is planned to make radical changes in the present membership, and it is hinted that the caucus that names the com- mittee will define. its duties, so that there will be freedom in the matter of party nominations. In connection with the recent caucus for town officers, this committee at first planned to drop four of the seven members of the present town council and to place three candidates ahead of three of the four members that were to be shelved. But when the council- men who were to be “jumped” object- ed there was a change in tactics and decision was reached to drop the seventh -councilman only. . This plan changed when the committee realized that there was a fight ou and that their plan would be thwarted. Just prior to the caucus the committee met and de- cided to make no changes in the coun- cil except to substitute a nominee, one Miss Carrle Sylvia entertained at her home’ on High street Tuesday, her birthday. At noon an appetizing dinner was served and a pleasant so< cial day was spent. Miss Sylvia re- celved many beautiful gifts, also a postal card shower.

It is In the re- port that the principal of the High School and prospective superintend- ent, has instituted legal proceedings against the present superintendent charging slander or criminal libel, or both. and has -engaged as counsel, Abel P. Tanner, of New London. The superintendent has published over his own signature statements concerning the qualifications of the principal, which he declared he could substan- tiate by proof. If the report be true, the superinténdent will have oppor- tunity ‘to_prove the statements.
