School Childyen Buving a Flag To-
days Court Notes.

On MONDAY next the Town COuncll VIII
meet to dispose of much important busi-
ness, and make the several appointments
OF town officials. There are but few of
these positions that have any "fat" at
tached to them yet there are number
of those who want them.
For the position OF town sergeant
Henry q. Pollard is working, while many
OF the Council believe that the present
incumbent is entitled to a reelection.
A dark horse Is also said to be In the
| race and he may distance both
| Keene and Pollard. The most important
committees will be shouldered by the
more experienced men OF the Council,
but 1t is the desire of President Wilbur to
equalize the work OF members.
The Council will also appoint taxpay-
er from each district to act on the COM
mittee for the purpose OF applying to the
General Assembly for a special act of leg
islation to enact Board OF Public Works.
IL is the wish of many citizens thai this
matter be pushed as rapidly as possible.
Many appropriations OF minor nature
Will also be made and Mondays meeting
promises to be long and decidedly busy
one.

dred children singing will make a grand
and effective chorus and under the direc-
tion of Director Fairman of the Pawtuck-
ct Band, and Miss King, instructor Of mu-
sic, will render appropriate selections to-
gether with the Band. IL will be grand
sight. During the exercises a large flag
will be presented to the committee on
parks, and the children will purchase 1t
they are 30 earnestly dlsposing Of. The
tickets amount to nothing any more than
