 What the boys on Riverside street will have for their next amuse- ment is what people along Riverside street are now thinking about. For the past few months the contractors who own the sand banks along this street have been missing blanks that were On the premises but as general rule they knew where to go to find them. In nearly every case they could be found on the banks of the Naugatuck river where the boys had used them in making spring boards for diving. Their latest amusement is an arrangement something like some of the amusements at Coney Island. A wire is attached to the top of a tree on one side of the bank of the river and is tightly fastened to stump of tree in the river: A pull ley is also attached to the wire. The boy who is going to perform the feat will climb to the top of the trees take hold of the pulley, swing himself out from the tree and down the wire. He goes at terrific rate of speed, cling ing tightly all the time till he is with in about ten feet of the end when he let's go and plunges into the water.

 Some of the property owners on Town plot have complained at the Democrat office about the conduct of youngsters in that district. They smashing the few electric lights in that district to put the place in utter darkness SO that they may be enabled to do mischief without being detected. Already much damage has been done on South Wilson street extension and if the dev1ltry is continued somebody will get into trouble. This is not right. It costs good deal of money and constant care to keep house and garden in repair and it is only natur- al that people who wake up in the morning and see their labor gone for nothing should feel aggrieved. It is an expensive time for owners of prop erty. Taxes are high and business is not brisk in the factories. A great many people have been idle on and off during the summer and people who had gardens tried to make some provision for the winter which will soon set in by planting potatoes and other things. What makes me mad, :" said one of the parties, Ifs to think that I might just as we'll have been Idle while was at work about my place. It is such an argument in fa- vor of doing nothing and having nothing that a fellow feels he is a fool to try to be honest and control his own family. have always kept a close watch after my children, new CT allowing them to interfere with my neighbors, but it seems that others give the boys full run and don't care what they do, elsewhere so long as they behave at home don't know what I should do if I heard my chil dren did anything that put my neigh bors to expense or trouble. If you tell the parents of reckless children that they are annoying you they will say that they cannot control them and then if you take them into the Coh IS you lhASA1 oS WCAA piSh uP youA traps and leave. You can't always get out and as a result you have to stay and suffer I think the authori- ties are not using the property own CTS in the outside districts right. We had much better protection under the town government than since the act of consolidation went into effect. Un- der the former system we had some DrotectiOn and a low rate of taxation: now we have to take care of our selves while paying considerably more taxes. 7
