plain, by his remarks, that his finding
was not to be construed as clearing
the way for an open Sunday in this
town. Each case, for violation of
the Sunday law, that may come be-
fore the town court Of killingly, will
be passed upon as separate and dis
tinct matter and the decision based
on the evidence as presented.
Spirit and Intent of Law.
A careful review Of the full text of
Judge Backs finding in the Labelle
case calls the attention to numerous
citations of supreme court cases uni
formly constituting the statute, not in
a technical sense, but in a liberal man
ner, endeavoring to find and determine
the spirit and intent thereof. Judge
Back also is of the opinion that in
towns the size of Danielson where peo-
pie travel to and fro on Sundays, and
in especially large numbers during
the warm months of the year, some
provision should be allowable for Sc
curing refreshment.
Refreshments a Necessity.
1t is a well known fact that after
certain hours in the early afternoon
of Sunday, the hotels do not serve
meals, that the restaurant service is
inadequate and that out Of town per-
sons who desire refreshment are
placed at great Inconvenience. Vile
there may be those in whose oplAlon
ice cream and soda are not consider ed
necessities, there are thousands of ot1-
ers to whom such refreshments are al
SO a food, and therefore a necessity,
sustaining them until such time as a
more substantial meal can be procur-
ed.
Decision Generally Commended.
From Judge Backs remarks there Is
reason to believe that he would not
consider the sale of Ice cream and So
da during certain hours on Sunday in
hot weather as being other than sale
of necessities and also that he believes
that the public should be privileged to
make such purchases should they de-
sire to do so.
The decision was generally COM
mended by those in court as a liberal
and reasonable Interpretation Of the
law, reached after due and careful de-
liberation.

Gen erQI Dem Qnd

of the Well-Informed Of the World has
always been for a simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy of known
value; laxative which physicians could
sanction for family use because its COM
ponent parts are known to them to be
wholesome and truly beneficial in effect,
acceptable to the system and gentle, yet
prompt, in action.
In supplying that demand with its ex-
cellent combination of Syrup of Figs and
Elixir of SIENNA, the California Fig Syrup
Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies
on the merits of the laxative for its remark
able success.
That is one of many reasons why
Syrup of Figs and Elixir of SIENNA is given
the preference by the Well-Informed.
To get its beneficial effects always buy

sidered is located between the trolley

of the Tourtellotte memorial high
school. It is intended to meet the
needs Of both villages as a place from
which to take trains or trolley cars.
The erection of the building viii mean
the abOlishing Of the present stations

The project finds favor with the
towns people who realize that the pro-
posed change would be a benefit to
them. When made it will also mean
one less stop for the accommodation

To Meet This Evening to Consider
Site for Addition to HIGH School.


First Selectmap S. Arnold Peckham
has called the first meeting of the
high school building committee for this
evening in the selectmens rooms at
the town building. The committee has
given plenty Of time for the calling of
q special town meeting that was being
talked up by number Of citizens to
take action regarding a site for the
new high school, but there is no evil
deuce Of action on the part of any
one to have such a meeting called, and
it seems to be up to the building
committee" itself to take the initia-
tive in the important matter.
1t is the opinion of some members of
the committee that it may be possible
to enlarge the present building by
adding thereto and thus provide ade-
Guate facilities without purchasing
any adjacent land for a site or a site
somewhere else. Other members of
the committee strongly favor purchas-
ing the O'Loughlin site, and some peo-
pie deem that site absolutely neces-
sary.
