GREENEVILLE Infantile Paralysis Epidemic Causes Opening of Sunday School to Be D layed—Playgrounds Close Friday— Persona The Greeneville Congregational church Sunday ‘school will not open until Sept. 24 owing to the epidemic of infantile paralysis. It is thought best by the directors of the school to adopt e “safety first” method and keep the school closed for another two weeks. The school was supposed to have open- ed Sept. 10. When the school does open precautions will be taken about allowing children from out of town at- tending and communicating with the other pupils.

T._White Solos, “Allah,” “A Bonny Curl’ and “The Maiden and the Butterfly” were beautifully rendered by Miss Mary Strange. Tho address of the day was_then delivered by the Rev. Henry Hurl- butt, D. D, pastor of the Congrega- tional church at Groton Bank. After a few preliminary remarks he an- nounced his theme as “The Prophetic in Literature.” He illustrated his sub- ject by reference to the great intel- lectual works which have survived the changes and revolutions which have convulsed the world since they were put forth by their authors. The im- mortal work of the author of Prome- theus Unbound” was a prophecy to all succeeding ages. Those tales known to us as the “Arabian Nights” strike a chord in the universal heart. Dante’s “Inferno” has in it a mes- sage for peoples of all times. Sir Thomas More's “Sepopia” has in it ideas far in advance of his own time. Cervantes in “Don Quiote’ makes Sancho Panza, tho reai mezo of his romance, a representative of the workingman of our day. And David Defoe makes his “Robinson Crusoe” a representative of the actual common life in times far in advance of the day in which it was written. The reader of the present day could profitably refer back to the work of these ex- alted geniuses of former ages and find in them a mine of intellectual moral and religious thought which will well reward the search, At the conclusion of the address Miss Mary Strange rendered two so- los “Still Wie Vie Nacht” nd “The ‘Wind That Blonesile Barley. The concluding exercises was the inging of “America” by the audlence and the benediction by the Rev. Mr. Hurlbutt.

The straightforward story of 13 year old Margaret Green concerning the in- cidents which occurred at the time of the alleged indecent assault upon her, charged against Prof. Alfred Shonfield, and corroborative testimony of certain phases of the case by several other Witnesses introduced by the state, at the preliminary hearing in the New London police court Wednesday, re- sulted in Judge Willlam B. Colt find- Ing probable cause and binding Shon- fleld over to the next term of the crim. inal superior court in bonds of $76 Three hours were occupled in hear- Ing the evidence and listening to the arguments of Attorneys Hollandersky 2nd Geary for the defence and Acting Prosecuting Attorney Cronin. The court room wes crowded with interested spectatore. Prior to the reading of the com- plaint, to which Professor Shonfield entered a plea of not guilty, the charge entered against his name on his previ- ous appearance was nolled and a charge of indecent assault substituted, at the suggestion of the prosecuting attorney. Professor Shonfleld was ac- companied in court by his sister, Miss Annie Shonfield, of New York. Margaret Frances Green, the 13 year old complainant, is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Harry E. Green, of No. 191 Bayonet street. She was accompanied in court by her mother, and once while under cross examination by At- torney Geary became hysterical when she saw her mother in tears. Crying "Stop my mother from crying—she is going to faint,” the girl broke down completely, and efforts of the court officers to calm her wers fruitless until the mother had been led to an ante- room. She told in a straightforward man- ner the incidents which led up to the charge being placed against Professor Shonfleld. She sald she had been em- ployed by Nathan Peck. who conducts a restaurant at Ocean Beach, for some days prior to the date of the alleged assauit on Tuesday, Aug. 22, to care for the two Peck children. The younsest of the two children, she said, had been in bathing during the afterncon, and, accompanied by the Peck Loy, aged 5, they came from the beach fo the bath- house occupled by the Pecks about 7 o'clock on the evening in question. Reaching the bathhouse, she said, they found a man there. He was in the act of tieing his bow necktie. The girl knew him by sight, from having seen him speak to the Peck children on several occasions. She knew he sometimes used the Peck bathhous and thought nothing strange about his presence ‘there. He departed from the bathhouse and then came back, accord- ing to her testimony, with a sweater, which he hung on the wall. Then he sat down on a bench in the bathhouse behing her, while she was engaged in dressing the young Peck girl, who is a little over a year old. The girl paid no attention to the presence of the man in the bathhouse, presuming that he was lacing his shoes, she said. Then she testified to feeling her body come in contact with something and thought she had rubbed against the bench which extends along one side of the bathhouse. Accordinz to her story, she thought nothing of that, until a’ moment later she felt a tug at her clothing and felt a hand unbuttoning her clothes. _Turning about quickly, she declared she saw a hand withdraw quickly. She screamed Shonfield, she testified, was still on the bench ‘and when she up quickiy he said:” “Shut up. not touching you.” With that she rushed out of the partly open door and ran screaming to the door leading to the kitchen of the Peck restaurant. There he ran Into the arms of one of the kitchen hands and in a single sen- tence she expalined what had happen- ed. v that she passed out of the kitchen <into the main dining room, where she sat down, and as soon as she recovered from her excltement ex- plained to Mrs. Peck and several wit- nesses how the man in the bathhouse had unfastened part of her clothing. After she entered the kitchen, she said, Shonfield entered the door and she ‘pointeq him out to those in the room saving, “There he is” Shon- fleld replied back, “I didn’t do nothing o he Later she said he entered the dining room by the front entrance ana n she pointed him to those about her and again he repeated his assertion of innocence. She was unable to place the exact time hut belleved it was a few minutes 7 o'clock in the evening. She after 7 said that it was dark and that many of the lights on the beach and in the buildings in that vicinity were light- ed. On cross examination she persisted that she felt a hand under her dress, and that Shonfleld was sitting directl behind her on the beach When she turned around. It was quite dark in the bathhouse at the time, and the door remained partly open. In run- ning from the bathhouse to the rear door of the Peck restaurant, she said she jumped from the platform in front of the row of bathhouses to the ground which is a distance of about two feet. Efforts of the defense to shake her story proved unsuccessful. Professor Shonfleld was the last wit ness of the day. His testimony was a complete denial of the evidence as presented by the prosecution. He sald he went to the beach early Tuesday afternoon. A long line was waiting for suits at the public bathhouse and he went to the restaurant of Nathan Peck, with whom he is on friendly terms, and requested the privilege of using his bathhouse, which was granted. After donning his bathing suit, he returned the key to its place in "the restaurant and went to the beach, where ha remained about two and a half or three hours. He savs he returned to the bath- house about o'clock. The door was open and he entered. There he dressed and according to his story had just placed his coat on when the two Peck children and the Green girl came to the door. He told them to wait just a minute, which they did, then he vacated the wathhouse. As he was golng up the walk he noticed his sWweater hanging over the low fence which extends along the out- slde of the walk. He picked it up and returned to the bathhouse where he says he merely reached his arm in the door and placed the sweater on a mafl. He then departed. FHe absoultely denled re-entering the bath- house. ‘When he reached the street, a large crowd was walting for cars back to the city and he boarded a jitney. They reached a point on Ocean avenue sev- eral blocks from Bani street, he said, when it occurred to him that he had forgotten to get a $10 note which he had left at the Peck restasffant for safe keeping, prior to entering the bathhouse. He told the Jitneur to stop and he boarded a car back to the beach, Arriving there he entered the front door of the restaurant and heard the girl. who was then sitting on the ice chest at the rear of the dlning room, say, “There he is” Then he was ar- rested by Patrolman Damas and they boarded a car for New London. He asked the policeman to explain why he was under arrest and learned, ac- cording to his statement, for the first time, that the girl had accused him of an assault. He told Damas that it was all a mistake. He was not the man, and the policeman feeling in doubt. by Shonfleld’s persistence that the wrong man was in custody. agreed . peated her to return to the restaurant and again question the girl. Again the girl re- story. and Shonfleld insist- HOW | CURED ~ MY_CATARRH TOLD IN A SIMPLE WAY Without Apparatu Lotions, rmfu or Electri Inhalers, Salves, Drugs, Smoke ity.

Supervisor Young So Notifies Teach ers in Sprague, Sterling, Voluntown and Lisbon. It is expected that the schools of Sprague, Sterling, Voluntown and Lis bon will open Sept. 6. Notlce to this effect has been sent to the eeacners of the schools in those towns by Super visor Arthur L. Young of this city. There has been some uucer regarding the date of cpening have communicated witn most of my committecmen and all the health of- ficers of the towns concerned and there scems to bé mo reason why the schools should not open on the date specified, said Mr. Young. If any con- ditions develop which would make it unwise for school to open on Sept. 6 the teachers will be promptly notified by me to that effect. Teachers or pupils who have been visiting in the towns where there has been infantile paral are excluded from school for a period of thre weeks unless admitted sooner vy the health officer. It is understood that in all cases where such exclusion seems unnecessary the party concern- cd should communicate at once with the local health officer, in which cas; it is possible that some better ar- rangement may be made. Teachers are directed to exclud promptly from school any pupils who seem to be sicl: fram any cause what- soever. Pupils thus excluded if their cases are such as not to be serious, can be easily readmitted by the au- thority of the health officer. All teachers are directed to notify their pupils and the parents as far as possible to report very promptiy to the local health officer and to the teacher any cases of unusual disease. It is understood that the State Su- pervising Agent will not proceed against any persons on account of any absences caused by being excluded from school according to the above. Unless notice to tho contrary is given there will be held a meeting of all of Mr. Young's teachers in Nor- wich on Tuesday, Sept. 5. The teach- ers’ meeting will begin in the morning at 9 promptly. From the regrster it will be_ possible to make a fair esti- mate of how many pupils will be re- turning for the different grades. This teachers' meeting day, Tu day, is a day of paid service. Full an punctual attendance is wequrrcd well as getting into the school build- ing in the afternoon and getting things ready for school to begin next day, for such teachers as those who can’ get to_ their school buildings. The teachers of Sterling cn account of the/ lack of train service in the mradle of the day may be unable to ao so. In that case the afternoon may be em- ployed by them in conference with the supervisor in matters affecems their and sliding ropes. _M 'to the indorsement and packing of in- work.
