DANIELSON Olivér D. Drow, for 4 mumber of years of the Danielson Cotton Company buried Sunday, after funera) lent of the Interlaken Mills at and at Arkwright, :. Drew, 74, was one bf the outstand- figures in the textile industry in New England. He was born in Saco, Me., on Bfe 2§, 1348 At 14 he went to work the mill of the Pepperell Manufactur- ‘company, at Biddeford, and labored 4 hours each day at 25 gents per day. A number of years later he became an Overseor for the Great Falls, N. Y., Man- Wfacturing company, going from there to Pall River, where he worked for nine years as an overseer in the first of Rich- &rd Borden's mills Later he became superintendent of the Stafford gnd Mason mill at Barrows- wille and Was with the Eimwuod mills in Providence for a time. For a period of nink years he was located here in Dan- felson as agent of the Danielson Cotton Company mills. and left here to go With the Dwight Manufacturing company at Chicgpee. Mass. During the elght years Be remained at Chicopte he supervised the of the plant By =X It was In 1908 that Mr, Drew took up the superintendency of the Interlaken wills. This period 'a work was ling of another miil ne of the ather plants under his supervision. Mr. Drew was a member of Moriah Jodee. A. F. and A. M., of Dantelson also of B. A Balley lodce, K. E. O. P. of this place, &s well as of other fraternities with which he amliated at towns where he had been engaced. In 1968 Mr. Drew marded Mrs, Em- ma Knight Me. She died in 3878, leaving four soms and two daugh- ters—Willard, chief clerk at the Inter- Jaken mills; Harry, who dled July 1917, when he was _superintendent o mills at Buffalo: Arthur, who died April 13, 1916, when Alline a position as & mill #uperintendent in Massachusetts; Mrs. George H.

Bond of Waterbury, Me.. she surviving him with one daugh- ter, Miss Carolyn F. Drew. This daylght saving arranfement Seems to be a source of difficultiees ..of widely varying nature for many people. Now take the case of a boy who did not come home at the hour he usually is ex- pected on Saturday nights—just this case, for initance. How was he to know what time it was or what may be expected to happen at any given time—fuxt a Httle bit of a hap, you know? And how could his parents really feel certatn that he had hot come in and gone to bed on daylight saving time whils they wers watching clocks set at standard time Hard questions of course, but it does explain how & youngster of tender years Jocked Into the Orpheum theatre on Batorday night and remained thers dls- tonsolate and howling in the darkmess what must have seemed the greatest mmpitheater s the world to this fright- #ned boy—too young o semse that he easily could bave gained his lberty by opening any of the exits, which are cer- tainly plentiful in the house.

How Q14 he get Into the theater? Why didn't he come eut when the show was over? Did he fall asleep and get overlooked when the bouse was locked up? Who knows? The tendency sems to be to blame the whole Incident onto dayNight saving—for ac- parding to the standard timers. one just paturally falls to sleep under that guide When the time comes—all cireumstances 04 aurroundings notwithstanding.

It is also known that the school population ' Is; the. group most sysceptible to smalipox and in many instances the least vaccinated. The state board has urged all local boards to sugport the movement for general vaccination. The school board has authority under section $88 of the general statutes to re- quire every child to be vaccinated before attending school also to exclude all chil- aren under five years when the best inte- rests of the schools will be promoted. The Putnam school committee has taken stips to co-operate with the staté board and has voted that the measure provid- ing for vaccination be enfo: It was reported some weeks ago tHat there were quite a number of children in the schools of Putnam who had not been vaccinated. Parents will have to attend to this matter if they wish children to remain in attend- ance.
