Davis, the representative from Westerly in the second district, says that he will favor the abolition of tho property qualification, a 48 hour law for women, amendment of the rules of the house and more even distribu- among business committecs, and is opposed to changing the basis presentation in the senats. Mr. inks that there is no reason for slecting scnators on the basis of popu- lation any more than there is electing U. 8. senators on the same basis. I «m no more in favor of clecting 20 senators from Providence and one from Westerly than I am in electing 20 U. S. senaters from New York state and one from Rhode Isiand, he said. He further eaid that he would also favor in the house this year, the nomination for sublic office by direct vote of the people, eation of a state constabulary, moth- * pension, 48 hour week and no night rk for women. He says he intends > introduce a measure providing for he nomination of candidates by direct primaries, as he believes the conventior system of nominating has outlived its usefulness. He will also support and perhaps introduce a mother’s pension biil. Z Bishop Perry and Lewis D. Learned were speakers Thursday evening at a parish meeting at the Christ Episcopal chureh. Fred 8.

Pearson of the New vk, New Haven & Hartford Railroad has issued from New Haven the fol- lowing statement for the .information of the public served by the New Haven system: “On June 30, immediately prior to shopmen’s strike, the general condition of locomotives, as -indicated Dby the larger number of engines in good eon- dition which were stored in white lead for service, the smaller number in and awaiting shops, and the character of the service by those in use, was more favorable than for the preceding period of several years. “On July 1 the withdrawal of forces from the locomotive shops and engine terminals was complete. The gradual filling of the ranks occupied about three months. The period of recruiting was one of exceeding operating difficulty. The load was carried largely by the su- pervisory staff. There was not only an undue burden of work devolving upon the limited forces. but the situation was still further aggravated and seriously, | by intimidation and sabotage. During Mrs. W. H. Lamb.

A communieation has been received by Benjamin Hewitt concerning the store of the expense of the new bridge at Mystic. No action was taken at the financial meeting of the town and- it was being considered by the selectmen lo go to Hartford and look.” into -the matter more fully. The information Mr. Hewitt has received -states that the leg- islative session of 1921 was concerned with the participation of the ftrolley companies on the cost of the road re- pairs and, bridge construction. It was evident prior to the session that the Shore Line Eilectric company would not be able to pay its share of the cost of the Mystic bridge, which at that time, under the then existing law, was to be one-third. As a result this department made a request for the appropriatien of sufficient money, namely, $77,000, to de~, fray the ‘Yrolley company’s share of the expense. This money after ocomsider- able discussion was appropriated and the bill approved on June 2, 1921, after the closing of the session. If the law 1ad remained as originally written the trolley company’s share of the bridge would have been one-third of the total But another law was passed which provided for a change In the method of determining the trolley company's share of the cost of construction of trunk lime bridges and provided that the trolley ompany should pay “such portion of the oost of the work as represents the xcess above the amount which would have been required for the purpose of ordinary highway trafic and further provided that the highway commission- er should determine the amount which should be paid. As a result of the pass- #ze of these two laws which were ap- proved on the same day there is an ap- nropriation too large for the purpose de- signed for. $35,000 was the trolley company’s share and as the ' froley company was unable to pay the bill, the trolley company’s share was taken out of the $77,000 appropriated for this pur- How to Be Rid of Dangerous Dandruff If you have dandruff you must get Mystic and Stonington.

PLAINFIELD Parents’ night at the high schoo] Wed- nesday evening was a pleasant affair, greatly enjoyed by a large company of parents and friends. The principal, J. L. Chapman, spoke a few fitting words of | welcome, expressing the appreciation of the teachers in seeing so many present. The following interesting -program was! well -rendered: Selections by the orches- tra and glee club, led by Edward W. Mantin; a bright and snappy sketch en- titled Making a Choice, in charge of Miss Elizabeth Cornell and Miss Mildred Jen- | kins; violen duet, Irvine Bellavance and Maude Kanahan, and the awarding of letters to the football team by Superin- tendent. Chapman, who spoke enthusias- tically of the splendid team k and courage of the team in their fall cam- paign. As.the letters were given to each player the young ladies of the high school | gave their rousing high school yell. The program closed with the singing of the new high school song. Refreshments| were served under direction of Miss Jose- pirine S. Armstrong. Among those present were the members of the school board, C. L. Butler, princi- pal of the grammar school in Plainfield, Miss Ethel Parkburst. and good delega- tions of the parents and supporters of the school from Central ViHage, Wauregan, Moosup and Plainfield. It was apparent to all that, although there was a lack of room in the old building, yet there was a fine school spirit | and the evidence of an institution for higher education’of which to be proud and one worthy of the new school build- ing in process of construction. Ernest Buell has introduced a new fea- ture in his Leghorn puultry farm by in- stalling electric lights in all his hen- Iouses. He expects to have his hens working two shifts—one for the day and | one for the night.

Edward Pratt has completed the con- struction of a garage for George Dean. ‘William Adems is comstructing a con- crete sidewalk and approach to the Con- gregational church in Central Village. Mrs. Victor Burgeron, who has been ill with scariet fever, is reported better and is able to sit up. She has been under the care of her mother, Mrs. Alfred Ash- ley. The members of the Woman'’s club were entertained at whist last Tuesday after- noon by their president, Mrs. Charles F. Heap, and 2 very pleasant time was en- joyed by a large company of ladies pres- ent. It was wogkers night at the vestry of Congregational the condition of power was worn down much below standard, both as to the number of engines out of service for heavy repairs and the increasigly worn’ cindition ,of those in service, With the change in conditions about this time it became possible to increase the amount of work that could be arranged for in outside shops, which was immediately arranged. 4 “The qualifications now being display- ed by the mew forces are excellent. They are well handling mot only the present current requirements but in ad- dition are assisting in overcoming the very large amount of mainteance that necessarily fell behind during the first few months. In addition, and for the purpose of recovering mot only the for- mer condition of power but of reaching a still better standard essential for the high character of service it is the pur- pose of the management to afford,, con- tracts are in effect with twelve outside shops. which are now working on the entire re-conditioning of 56 locomatives, and on boilers of 44 additional locomo- tives.

Such re- fiections, however, are far from the fact. The present forces and superv ory staff have demonstrated their com- petency during the active months of the strike in keeping the service moving and avoiding the necessity of Wwithdrawing trains. The requirements of safety are carefully observed. ~Engine failures in- crease when their general condition 1s worn down and they are without that higher degree of maintenance which af- fords the factor” of safety against breakdowns and delays. Those who went on strike brought this condition about. It can only be remedied by the performance and as quickly as practic- able of the unduly large amount of re- pair work that has accrued.
