Bard, 19, of Brooklyn, was So térribly injured Thursday morning when the touring car né was driving, orashed into a tree at the side of the state highway léading frem Brooklyn to Danielson, that his life was literally hanging by a thréad during thé afternoon and early evening hours, at the Day Kim- ball hospital in Putnam, whete he was taken after the accident. When the ear left the highway and struck the tree the heavy machine was thrown back into the highway and wrécked, the young man being thrown ont and rendered uncon- scious He suffered a fracture at the bass of the skull, on the left side, a fracture of the left arm between the elbow and shoulder, a fracture of the jaw, a part of his right thumb was cut off and the first finger of his right hand crushed. In ad- dition he is possibly interfally injured and has a number of mifor éuts and brulses. W. V. Bailard, a Brooklys resident of about 60, who was riding in thé front seat with Mr. Bard, received a severe gash sexr his left éye, but is not seriously hurt. H6 was take from the wrecked ¢ar and conveyed to his homé by a spec- tator who came along in his car soon after the accident occurred. 2 Mr. Ballard was quoted after the acel- dent as stating that the car left the highway and dashed off toward the {ree when Mr. Bard partly turned about and looked into the tonneau of the car for some letters. Dr. F. P. Todd was hastily summos- ed to the location of the accident, which is near the home of John Fitzgerald, about three miles east of Danielson. Mr. Bard's condition was so serious at this time that it was feared he would live only a few minutes. A closed delivery car that happeneq along was pressed into service to convey Mr. Bard to Putnam. Upon his arrival there he appeared to become stronger and partly regained con- sciousness. It was stated during the afternoon Lhat the young man's condition was such that it was deemed Dest not to attempt any operation during the day. It was stated that the young man has a chance of recovery, though this is slight. It is believed that there were no wit- nesses of the accident, though several cars came along within two minutes after it occurred. A person who mnoted the Bard car as it was passing stated that 1t was being driven at a moderately rapid road gait, asd tnat the accident could not be attributed to fast driving. The infured young man is a son of Treasurer Sidney W. Bard of the Brooklyn Sav- ings bank of Danielson and of Mrs. Bard, well known tesidents of Danielson. The accident shocked residents of both Dan- ielson and Brooklyn. Thursday, a special meeting of the Killingly town school committee was held in order that Ballouville petitioners of sandwiches, cake, fancy cookies, doughnuts, coffee, cheese, sweet cider and Dpeanuts was provided by Mrs. Leffingwell assisted by Mrs. Austin Rathbun, Mrs. W. A. Miner and Mrs. Byron Frink. Three Ledyard teachers, Miss Lester, Mrs. Corey and Miss Fannie Gray, visit- ed school here Wednesday. Sunday morning worship at 11 o'clock. B. Y. P.

Dog Warden Harry Lathrop of the town of Brooklyn said Thursday afternoon that nawlllmeverymunom.n .dog and allows the animal to go about awithout having a proper tag attached to Jta collar. This action is to be taken following the salughter of sheep that has taken place @t the farm of Oliver A. Downs. Mr. Lathfop spent the greater part of Thurs- day watchipg out for the return of the og that has been kiliing sheep of the Downs flock, but the animal did not put in an appearance. Sheep killed by the dog evidently have been seized on a one-a-day schedule, for ‘hawve been found scattered about the large farm, usually at points where walls con- verge, showing they had been chased un- il cornered. In some cases the indica- tions are that the sheep have been dead for more thah a week. Some of the ear- casses were found practicaily stripped of all flesh,” while others showed that the dog had seized them by the throat and sucked their blood and then abandoned them. State Officer Howard A. Eliott, speclal deputy of the bureau of domestic animals, is expected here to investigate certain features of ‘he case that have developed and it is believed hat it will de possible to fix the responsibility for The killing. A bnd of hoodlums gave East Killing- iy a rough-housing Monday evening un- der the pretense of celebrating Hallow- e'en. Mistaking vandallsm for fun they indulged in a number of escapades that win them something akin to a jail sen- tence in any court in the country. Miss Louise Danielson is to havé the members of the Camp Fire Girls at her home for a meecting this (Friday) after- noon. The @nnual roll call campaign of the American Red Cross will open here on Friday of next week, Armistice day. Danielson’s chamber of commmerce has taken up advocacy of the establishment of a dental clinic for the &chool of Kill- ingly. This has been done in a number of Connecticut towns, including Putnam, and has been found a great benefit, George C. Howland, 76, formerly of Wauregan, died Thursday morning at An- thony, R. 1. He leaves his wife and two son, Watler J. owland, superintendent of the Mount Hope Spinning company, Warren, R. L, and Crawford Howland of Quidnick, R. 1. Mr. Howland was well k‘mwn in Wauregan and Central Viilage, Rev. A. Avery Gates, was the speaker at the Thursday evening service at the Congregational church and Miss Evelyn Jette was the leader at the young peo- ple's meeting. Those who participatel in a local min- strel production recently staged here un- der the management of Billi€ Russell had a festival Thursday, when théy gath- ered at the Attawaugan house for a ban- quet. might be heard relative to their claim that the town is legally obligated to fur- nish transportation to pupils who desire to attend the high sthool and who live five or more miles distant from the in- stitution and yet within the boundaries of the town. Attorney J. F. Carpenter of Phtnam represented those who make the claim. However, there is another view of the matter and at least some of the member of the town school committee say that the town is not legally obligated to furnish such transportation as is being requested, A décision on’ the matter will not be,made for the present, it is understood. Harvey guaranteed replacement springs for all cars. School Street garage.—adv. Anneuncement was made here Thurs- day that Friday of next week, Armistice day, will be observed as a half-holiday by the business houses of Danielson, the stores ‘closing at noon. This action has been taking through the initiative of the chamber of ¢ommerce and will be a tri- bute to the World War veterans. A re- quest has been made for a general dis- play of the natiomal colors and that flags be placed at half-sta® between noon and one p. m., in honor of the unknown sol- dier whose body is being sent from France to this country for burial at Washington and for zll those who died. while serving the country during the great war of the nations. Sterling is to have political caucuses this week to name candidates for a first selectman to succeed Lee Remington, who has resigned as first selectman. A spe- cial meeting of the town has beeén called for Friday of next week at which voters will have an opportunity to cast their ballots for their candidates for first se- lectman.

Barroughs, Miss Dorothy Atwood, Wauregan, local chair- man announced Thursday afternoon. Kill- ingly is one of the towns that sends a very large percentage of patlents treat- ed at the Day Kimball hospital each year, and for that reason it is hoped that the public will respond generously toward what is to be dohe in Killingly to help the institution onto a more secure financlal standing. Members of the various branches of the I O. O. F., represented in Danielson®are to attend mext Sunday morning's service at the Baptist church in a boly, meeting at their quarters in the town hall build- ing and marching to the church.

And now comes the man who would round up more of the thieves that take tires from wrecked automoblle g or cars that are left unattended in outlying see- tions. His scheme is to “plant” a ear; ehat is, leave one beside the highway as though it had been wrecked while the thief hunters hide securely nearby, walt- ing for the ralders to come along and begin operations. Mortrists who dis- cussed this plan Thursday believe that it would work and that in due time tire thieving would be materially lessened.
