TOWN MEETING TODAY
The second round of the school
house fight at S 'uth Woodstock
will be fought out today in town
meeting. 1t is the wish Of good
many peaceable citizens that the
question might be left entirely to
those directly interested. but the
voters as 4 whole now necessarily
have a voice IN the matter. The
buildings on the site purchased by
the locating committee have been
demolished, hut the other side is
quite as active in preparations to
build ON Academy hill. AS to using
the Roulston place site as an orna-
mental weapon to prevent any future
establishment of bar in kedron
tavern, the law, it appears, makes it
a weak means of offense.
The law states that license shall
not be granted tor the sale of liquor
within 200 feet Of a public or paro
caial school, but that the restriction
shall not apply to wholesale or re.
tail druggists, or to innholders.
