Following a capference of local phy- sicians. it was announced Tuesday that' there is to be a general advance in the amount of fees for their pro- fessional services. Visits to ‘patients in Danielson are to be charged for at the rate of $1.50, instead of at the present rate of $1. The minimum of- fice_fee under the new schedule will be cents, instead of 50 cents. At night and during office hours, outside calls are to be wt double rates. There also is to be an advance in the charges for obstertrical work. It was given out that the advances are due to the increased costs that physicians are encountering in their professional fleld as well as to the general high costs in all lines, apply- ing.to them as to others. The rates agreed upon are to be- come effective February 1 and _ will then be on a level with what is being charged by physicians in Putnam and many other places in Connecticut.

His knowledge of finance well qualifies him for a place on the board to -which ‘he has been appointed. Mr. Putnam will have over two vears to serve, 2s the vacancy he fills was for a. termn that would extend over that period. Mr. Putnam will meet with the fi- nance board tomorrow for the first time. : The meeting will work on the budgets of the various departments for the new year. The task that confronts the board this vear in working out budget is additionally complicated because of the increased demands of several de- partments of the city and the uncer- tainty hovering over the fate of bills before the general assembly. Ome of the Wbills would divert from the city over $600,000 in the excess corporation tax, and other bills would affect the amount the city must contribute to state and county taxes. Stamped Envelopes to Cost More And now look who's here and join- ing the chorus proclaiming the up- ward swing of prices. Nome _other than your own Uncle Sammy. Sitting with his feet swung up on a desk and contemplatively stroking' his whiskers he announced Tuesday at the local post office that he'd have to get just a leetle bit more for his stamped en- velopes hereafter. “You see,” says Sam, “they’re kinder stickin’ it onto me much the same as onto ordinary folks. Every sundry that enters into the manufacture of envelopes and stamps—paper, _inks mucilage, labor, etc.—has skyrocketed in price. ‘Course, you know I have to buy the materials just same as oth- er folks though mayba in‘larger quan- tities, so there's no chance for me to escape paying the rates they are now asking. Neither is there any good rea- son why I should not do the same as all others as have the chance so—he, he!—I'm passing the buck on to that overloaded but ever loadable goat, the Ultimate Consumer and lettin’ him do the worryin’.” The !stamped envelopes have been jumped about 32 cents a thousand. “Another Section for Switchboard ‘An installation force of switchboard men arrived here and began work at the central telephone station, where another section is to be added to the switchboard to meet the increased mands of. the Danielson axvu%%. which pow ‘has well ovar 900 stations by flro_L'r it January Mortality Heavy in Town — *Deaths, Mrs. uqua Lea ger William D.

More than 130 children attended the meeting of the Junior Winter Chautau- qua league and the program proved unusually interesting. The meeting was led by Miss Dorothy Powell of warthmore, Pa. The meeting opened with singing.. One of the features was = story, Epinandas, told by Miss Pow- ell. The general topic for the meeting was the Creed of a Healthville zen. Under this topic children discus- sed features of it as follows: I Eelieve in a Healthy Body, Miss Bertha Child: I Believe in Clean Streets, Dorothy Bone: I Believe in Clean Buildings, EI- liott Dean; I Believe in “No Fiies" “No Mosquitoes”, Mildred Lucey lieve in Flowers and Trees, Edward Bowe: I Believe in Beautiful Buildings, Bertha Child; I Believe in the Town Beautiful, Catherine Thayer. In presenting her subject Miss Thay- er_said: “There are many things that the Junior citizens can do for the Town Beautiful. The first is to plant trees on Arbor day, and also we may gather ferns in the woods and plant ~them around the school buildings. ‘We know that the government distri- butes large quantities of seeds each spring. These packages of seeds are sent through the mails and each post- office is unable to deliver many of these packages because the parties to whom they are addressed are non-residents. Such packages of seeds may be obtain- ed by calling at the postoffice and used to plant flower gardens in our towns or in p\{blic parks in the city “A third way in which the Juniors can help make a town beautiful is by placing all refuse in collection cans on the streets and also by furnZhing more cans for the public to use in de- positing waste matter.

The town school committee held me=ting at the library Monday eve- ning, all members of the committee ex- cepting Mr. Glazier, who has been ill for several months, being present. A petition signed by several residents of Orcuttville was presented requesting that the Orcuttvill hoolhouse be moved nearer the village. The school- house is about a mile above the vil- lage and it would be much more con- venient for the pupils if the building were moved. It is doubtful however if it would be wise to attempt to move the old buildiffg. It is in bad condi- tion and if a schoolhouse is to be lo- cated in the village, many think that a new building should be erected. The matter was referred to the building committee, who will meet with the se- lectmen a'little later and decide upon which plan, if either, will be adopted. Seriously Iil. E. H.
