Hutghinson of Andover, and 'a cousin, Do Higgins, of Glastonbury. The public service ear driven by Pat- rick Cahill on the Blue line from this city to Hartford figured in a collision with a car driven by a woman from Windham Saturday night. Cahill was driving up Main street and endeavpred to pass out- side of the other car that was coming out of North street. He was not quick enough however, and the ear driven by the wom- an struck the rear of Cahill's car, bend- in ga femder on either automobile. The matter was reported at police headquar- ters and a settlement was made when Cahill offered to pay. for the damage to the other car.

The sixteenth annual reumion of —the Larkin Famly asseciation will be held this year at Pleasant View at the Hal- cyon heuyse on the 26th inst. This asso- ciation has a membership of consider- ably over half a hundred residents of southern Rhode Island and eastern Con- ngticut, all deseendants of Edward Lar- kin, who settled in what is now Aven- dale, in 1658 and was one of the first half-dozen original settlers of Westers ly. The association also has members both active and associate scattered all over the United States, as well as asso- ciate members in England ameng mem- bers of the Larkin jfamily of Kngland from which the emigrant ancestor of this branch sprang.

The hotels of Watch Hill are crawded and but one of the summer cottages is uneceupied. Practically every store is oe- cupied and it is probable the season will go on record as the biggest ever. There was a rumor the past week that the Ceo- lumbia house had changed hands, and another that a syndieate had been or- ganized among the chauffeurs, stewards, butlers and other demestics and attaches of th efamilies who maintain summer residences to convert it into a moving i picture house. It was afterwards learn- ed that this was only a vague scheme as a protest against an attempt last season to discriminate against this class by the management of the local playhouse. Westerly Veteran Firemen's associa- i tion members are getting themselves and their old hand engine City of Lowell in- te condition in expectation of winning at the annual muster of the Rhode Island State Firemen's League at Oakland Beach on Labor Day.

The grounds for thé squirting contest have Deen selected by the tournament com- | mittee, and the muster committee ex- ipects, to detrmine the prizes during the | present weel. Indications are that at least sixteen old time fire engines will contest in the playout for prizes. Fiaborate preparations are making for | the eishth arnual Exeter' Old Home Day | to be observed August 23. A feature of the celebration will be a clambake, to be served in the pine grove at the rear of Liberty church. This little church has been the religious home of fathers and grandfathers of the present genera- tion and is classed as a sacred spot in the old town's history. The Westerly Painters Union held an {outing at Rocky Point Saturday, making jthe trip in two auto trucks. The twen- ty-five members were not required to make special effort to get pleasure out of the trip, as that was on tap at the pop- ular Rhode Isiand shere resert. They {had their chowder ard clambake. and auto ride all in one day, with all the amusements extra. Local opganizations usually have annual outings at Bright- man' sPond, but the union painters pre- ferred a change.

MOTOR REGIATERING FEES TO BE REVISED BY STATE Complete revisien of the laws regard- ing fees paid by ewners of motor vehi- cles in Connecticut is now being made by the state highway department and the state department of motor vehicles. The new regulatiens, which are being drawn up under the supervision of State Highway Commissioner Chas. J. Bennett, and which will be submitted to the next sesslon of the legislature will provide an additional revenue of $300,000 for the us in the upkeep of the state highways and will lessen the fee to be paid by the owner of a small passengér car and in- arease the amount to be paid by the own- er of a large truek. In commenting upon th proposed new system of fess, Commissioner Stoeckel said recently that it was the object of th etwo departments te equalize the amount of expense of upkeep of the roads by foreing each automobilist to pay accerding te the amount of damage his car will do to the highway within a year. E Those in eharge of maki the revi- sion are working on the principle that a twelve-ton truck will cause more de- struction than a small roadster or motor- eyele and the amount of the regisration fee will be fixed according to the weight and eapacity of the vehicle, it wae said. JUDGE AVERY TO TAKE OFFICE NEXT DECEMBER Attorney Christopher L. Avery of Gro- ton, who was appointed by Governor Holecomb as a judge of the superior court, Is to take officee on Dec. 15 this year, upon the retirement of Judge Donald T.

The story of The Cyclone, which i§ a tale of the Canadian Northwest Mout- ed Police, deals with a series of tirring episodes leading up to a stunt climax that shows We cowpuncher star at hie best. This ultra stunt was undertaken by the actor and his director after esm- siderable deliberation. Mix rejectsd ev- ery modification suggested with a view to his personal safety, and insisted ypon enacting the erowning épigode in all its magnificent daring. Coleen Moore plays eppasite Mix as the coveted girl, and is a beautiful, vepy feminine prize for his vesy maseuline prowess. The other feature is Mary Miles Min- ter in A Cumberland emanee, a §-part Realart special productien. It goes without saying that as Baster Miss Minter has a part which displays her beauty and acting ability at its ah- solute best! She carries with - gqual conviction clever comedy mements or well-sustained dramatic situations, ef which many abound in this tenge stery of a mountain lover, a_city rival and a maiden whose hand in marriage i the prize.
