last year. SPAS were received for tuition
the past year, as against S21s the year be-
fore. Last year the aid outside of taxes
and tuition was about $3.50 " lille the year
before it was over $3.50. The district is
owing $500 and does not receive SO much

A man from Braintree, "with a jag on"
was the object OF boyish pranks last Sum
day evening. He was placed in front of
the residence of an honest man OF sym
pathetic instincts, who was called up and
informed that there was a sick man in
front OF his house. The sympathetic man
was alarmed by the appearance OF the pa
tient and called up the constable from
his slumbers. IL was finally concluded |
that the cool night air was best for the sick /
man, and he was well covered uu with |
blankets and left, but was again visited |
by the boys, who covered his face with |
W heel grease. The moral Of this IS that |
Bethel should have a lookup.
