Bill of Danielson has issued his finding on the death of Waldek Wojck. killed in an auto acei- dent by Alan Guild of Windham. He absoives Mr. Guild from all -blame. ‘Coroner Bill states that the auto- mobile was going six to ten miles an hour. When the driver approached the .children he blew his horn and they went to the side of the bridge, but the Wojck boy suddenly ran in front of the automobile, so that Guild could not possibly stop or turn, to avoid hitting the child, In closing, Coroner Bill says: “Acci- dents of this character are becoming so frequent that parents should heed these warnings and not let chiidren of such tender age wander so far away from their homes unattended, to play upon highways and bridges that are now in such incessant use by automo- biles.” . Chief Killourey received notice Mon- day that the state automobile depart- ment had taken away Mr, Guild's li- cense. Will Send Out Questionnaires.

Mayor Charles A. Gates has issued a proclamation urging all people over 14 years to register next Friday for the thrift stamp campaign. Chairman Valentine L. Murphy re- ceived a telegram Monday from F. A. Vanderlip, the nationai chairman of the thrift stamp campaign, stating that he expected to hear Jure 29 that Wil- limantic had gone over the top in the stamp campaign. To do this, $163,000 will have to be pledged in the drive this week. * Up to a month or so ago, Williman- tic was among the leading Connecti- cut cities in the amount of stamps owned by the residents, but there was a big drop last month which caused the per capita sales to fall. H Willi- mantic is to do as she has done in all other patriotic loans, ané drlives, over $150,000 will have to be pledged at the registration June 28. The government officials plan that 60 per cent. of the people will register, that is all over 14 years old, which would give about 8508 for this city, so the average pledge would have to be about $20 to put Willimantic where it belongs. The mayor asks each person not to forget to register Friday at the Lib- erty cottage or authorize a- canvasser to do the registering. Automobiles Collide. An automobile owned by Mr. and | Mrs. A. B.
