Darbie, in presenting to the special bor- ough meeting a resolution providing fer an appropriation of $30 to meet the cost of the Armistice day celebration stated that the meeting eould net be held prior to Monday because of inability to give the necessary legal netice sufficient- ly early to permit of so doing. The reso- lution was passed without opposition. Hartford Monday evening, had scores of friends in Dan- ilson and other places in the town of Killingly. Mr. Tayler was partieularly well known here because of the fact that he was engaged, abeut 25 years ago, in conducting a store dealing in croekery, glassware, heusehold furniture, ete.. n a building now oocupied by W. C. Bacoa, near the Casino bowling aljgpys. In the enterprise Mr. Tayler was associated with his brother J. Bugene Tayjor. lat- er he was associated with N. Waldo Ken- nedy in publishing The Observer at Day- ville. For years he was engaged at about this season in his arrangeménts Tor getting out a Danielsen holiday sheet, in whieh local business men invariably were liberal advertisers. In variogs ways he was closely associated with® Danielson and its people for the greater part of his active life and his visits here in recent years were in the nature of helidays er old home days—given over to visiting and chatting with old friends who 4&l- ways welcomed him with the warmth of the souls that is enly extended to such genials souls ag was “Souvenir” Taylor. Thursday afternoon the mesting of Sarah Williams Danielson chapter, D. A. R., will be featured by an address by Miss Rachel Preston, who spent the past summer at Dr. Grenfeil's mission in Labrador.

Duffy, teachers in Killingly's day schesls are in charge. Misses Marland and Duffy also have had previous experience with night school work, as teachers in the <chools at the Connecticut Mills evenings last fall and winter. Sessions of the night school are to be held Monday.| Tuesday and Wednesday evenings of each week and will be continued until at least 75 sessions have been held. The same plan as the one in use last veur is being followed in dividing the students into tWo groups—the American- ization and the Continuation. Miss Mar- land has charge of the Americanization | ;.;mq,. heing taught te read, write and {speak English. Miss Duffy has charge of the Conmtinuation group. given over chiefly to the instruction of yeung people between the ages of 14 and 16 who have been employed after obtaining work certificates, but who are required by state law to comvlete théir eighth grade work if they have not done se. This vear the Americanization group numbers abomt 15 and thers are from to 30 in the Continuation classes. The sessions of th, school are opening for the present at 7 uclock and continuing about {an hour and three-quarters. The time of Jn : | opening Will be suited, hewever, to the onveniénce of the students, so far as be possible, Superviser Horcae F. | Turner, stated Tuesday afternoon. Mr. McCann said that it has not been determined vet wWhen night scheols will e opened this sff son at the Connecticut Mills and at Gooaycar. This will dedeal upon the rapidity of the readjustment period through which the textile busi- s is passing and the reopening of the Is with their usual organizations. | Mr. Turner announcad that there is te {be a teachers' meeting here on Friday ernogn of this week. Mr. Turner will ddress the teachers relative to the courses of study and routine matters us- uaily given atlention at such gathetings. Although many of Kiilingly families, specially here in Danielzon, are getting ng with/a scanty suppiy of fuel, it is appreciited that the schools are so well { subplied with that pupils will net suffer | from the cold. All of the buildings are | being kept comfortably heated, which is | a source of satistaction not only to par- | ents and the citizenship_ at lars. but as | well as those in charge of the schools.

The body of James McLanghlin, fonnd more than two weeks ago under a tree in the Woods near Wauregan, remains unclaimed at the urdergaking rooms of L. I Kennedy. Coroser A. G.

Bill said Tuesday | afternoon that he will welcome any in- formation that will lead to the arrest | ana prosecution of those who are selling |Jamaica ginger illegally. There is no question in the minde of well informed| | persons that this is being done, but { et _convictions is another thing entirely {1t will be remembered that dealérs hand- {ling Jamaica ginger have a permit to do from the state. Unless it can be es- tablished in court that they are selling the ginger for beverage purposes, and this is a difficult thing to do, they are immune from presecution at least that opinion is held_by many and has been sustained by cdurts in this this and other states. The jakey trade seems te have grown to very surprising preportions all through this territory. Many dealers keep it in { stock nad many people drink it. Empty ginger bottle are thrown about promis- cuously and are so plentiful that small | boys have a source bf revenue collecting | them and selling them to some of 1 junk dealers. Warnings have been issued to some of the dealers who were suspected of having a big jakey trade, Mr. Bill sail Tuesda | afternoon, and he has had prgfiises that tl trade would be dropped. The jakey is still flowing from seme source, how- ever and Mr. Bill will be pleased to hear and act on any reliable information that is given him relative te a business that | i .| some big things that the dance promot. the | too. Y+ The Odd Fellows' parade, about which People of no town or city in Connecti- cut will more generally or sincerely regret the death of “Souvenir” William Harrison Taylor than the residents of Putnam. This was Mr. Taylor's old home town, the s#ne of his boyhood days, and his oariy ventures into newspaper work. It Was and is the home of his boyhood as- seciates and hundreds of friends of his manhood years. Here his education was obtained. Putnam was in Wie city in which his fraternal relationships were es- tablished. Wherever his duties took him for more than quarter of a century, Put- nam was always first in his affections and it never lost that place, though for years past he has been a resident of Hart- ford. "Phe announcement of his death in that city was decidedly a shock to the people of this cify, where he always was cordially weleomed and where he always was happy to bé. Only Monday morning this correspond- ent received a letter from Mr. Taylor re- Qquesting that he thank, through The Bul- letin, the scores of friends in Putnam and other nearby towns who had written him letters of sympathy and cheer upon learn- ing threugh this paper that Mr. Taylor was ill in Hartford following a nervous brepi-down with his usual order at the republican state central committee head- quarters in Hartford. “I crawied out of bed to write you this note. 1 hope you are able to mak it out. I have not the strength to thank personally by letter all who have written me since they learned that I was ill, but I know you will do it for me through the paper and 1 thank you for the fa- vor.” So ouvenir,” al- ways deeply appreciative of the friend- ships he numbered by hundreds here- abouis, in one of the last letters that he ever penned. 1t appears that. Mr. Taylor persisted In applying his old saying, “Cheer up and keep smiling!” during his last illness, for notwithstafding that he was barely| able to get out of hed Sunday afternoon! *8 dresned and went down town to get his' mail Monday evening, collapsing soon after reaching his home and dying within a few minutes. Ajr. Taylor's first venture in journalism was made in this city. He was associ- ated in the publication of the Sunbeam, issued rom a little building calied the Egan block, on Main street, just below the Congregational church. This paper eventuaily developed into the Windham County Observer of, today. Mr. Taylor was & son of George M. Taylor of this city, who survives him with @ brother, J. Fugene Taylor, of Atlanta, Ga., and a daughter, Mrs. Grace Rich- ards of Springfield. Taylor was born in May 2, 1862, the son of George H. and Susan (Bennett) Taylor. He was efucated in the district schools and the high school in Putnam. At an early age he began newspaper work and was editor, proprietor or business man- ager of journals in Putnam, Rockville, New Haven and Danielson. He was the publisher of legislative sonvenirs of Con- necticut and Rhode Island and published the only histery of the constitutional con- vention of 130. January 16, 188%, Mr. Taylor founded the Conmecticut Editorial| Association, of which he yas secretary and treasurer for several years. | In 1884, Mr. Taylor was messenger| on the House of Representatives and doorkeeper in 1889. In the legislature of 1901 he was chairman of the com- mittee on manual and roll and a mem- ber of the committee on temperance. He was secretary of the Legislative Club in 1997 and was a member of the rapublican state central committee. For three presidential campaigns, he vas secretary of republican campaign clubs. Mr. Taylor was a Mason, Odd Yellow, Forester and Granger. November 26, 1891, Mr. Taylor and Miss Alice I Day of Springfield were married. A daughter, Grace Abilena, 7785 born November 29, 1832, When “Souvenir® Taylor first be- came acquainted with the Capitol. he began the custom of decorating the desks of legisiators with souvenirs; sock on St Patrick's day, a flag or patriotic poEt card on Washington's tirthday, ete. Afterwards he gave away holiday souvenirs. His slogan, eep your memory green,” became famous. He received many letters from famous men and women throughout the country. Mr.| Taylor never reckoned the amount he ex- pended on souveairs. He said it was a hobby with him and he liked to make people smile. He said that when he sent @ card to a man to cheer him up he goes out with a warm smile for some- body eclse. It works like an endless chain One appreciative letter to “Souvenir” Tayvlor said that the writer believed Mr. Maylor had accomplished more good than all the Billy Sundays in the world. He had letters of appreciation from presi- dents of the United States, senators and congressmen, presidents of colleges and many governors. Ellu Wheeler W once wrote him a poem. When the legis- lature of 1915 turned down his legis- lative history on the ground of expense Mr. Taylor showed he was a good loser and the desks of the legislators were iz & real menace to sebiety as well as to the individual who drinks the stufiy As a winter diversion, dancing promis- es to have an unusually pop season in | Danielson.
