The School Committee in electing Frank
| o. Draper OF Pawtucket Superintendent
| OF Schools and his acceptance OF the posi-
tion have secured the services OF a thor
oughly competent man. Mr.. Draper is n
Pawtucket boy well known sDd highly
respected. He attended the public schools,
then the High school from which he grad
uated and then entered Brown University
from which he graduated with high
honors.
He was appointed Principal of the Gar
den street school four years ago and held
the position until he resigned Monday
night. Mr.. Draper is young man and
intends to devote his life to the business
he as adopted and Is therefore the man
wanted.
The increase in salary is not very much,
as the salary OF the principal of the
Garden street school is nJxS $3.50, while
all the School Committee is allowed to
pay superintendent is 1850. But the
salary will be increased, as it should be,
as a competent man cannot be kept at
| 81 800 year.
| The territory is rather large, but the
most important work is to be done in
this village. Mr.. Draper will enter upon
| his duties Immediately and, with coopera-
tlon OF the School Committee, Lincoln
will have better schools.
MorePoiicc.
Town Clerk Crawford said yesterday
morning that the time has arrived when
more police must be had. He said the
merchants were protesting against the
inability of the small force TO protect their
property.
The many safe robberies in this vicinity
lately have opened the eyes OF the people
to the fact that ten officers are not enough.
Fifteen would be none too many, and
there would be none to spare at that num-
Der.
There are now a captain and ten officers,
one being appointed Monday night by the
Board of Firewards. One OF those officers
| will be appointed roundsman and that
will improve the efficiency of the force.
Captain Goldsmith said yesterday that
no matter how honest or faithful a man
was IL there was no one to watch him he
would eventually fall into the rut of
carelessness. The roundsman will see that
the men attend to duty.
