A LOWER RATE.

For some time past, Frank B. Full
mer has been trying to get the state
commission to change the rate charged
by the Wausau Street Railroad COM
pany to Eau Claire Villa. The charge
has been 10 cents to the Eau Claire
Villa and only 10 cents to Rothschilds
park, which is twice the distance.
The commission sent in, its decision
last Saturday, but Just what it will
mean to the public is not known I'M
til the street car company issues its
new tariff. The commission, after ie-
viewing the case, says:
at is therefore ordered, That the
Wausau Street Railroad company
cease and desist from publishing any
tariff and collection of fares either in
single or round trips, which includes
the charge for admission of the holder
of a ticket TO the company's pavilion
or other amusement resorts operated
by it.
1t is ordered that the street rail-
road company hereafter do not charge
~ oASOSo VI hN0 Oeiios iVi siiSio iaLo
between any two points on its exist
ing lines of railway
As it is now person wanting TO buy
one ticket either TO Eau Claire Villa
or Rothschilds he must pay 10cts.
He may, If he so desires, buy three
tickets for quarter and thus get an
81 cent rate TO the villa or he may
purchase certain number of tickets
and thereby SECURE scent rate to
the villa. But the rate to Rothschilds
is 10 cents straight.

the board of education, but for thc children. 1 endorse and shall vote for the town system until we get it."
 MT. Hazard then introduced Mir. Hines of the State Board of Education. Mir. Hines said in part. "This district system has been abolished ill North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, the islands of the sea and even ill Connecticut only 74 towns retain it. Town management means; first, that the town becomes one districs for school purposes; second, one set of officers for school purposes; third, schoolbuildlngs become the property of the town; fourth. the town pays all the bills; fifth, all school business done ill the town meet ing; sixth, all district lines abolished. This means no particular change except that the town committee can send children to which school they think best. In Sharon at present there are IT districts and in each district three off cials; also six school visitors making 57 officials to 233 children. Would you prefer so salectmen to three? Just as sensible. Why cannot three officials conduct the school business as well as three conduct the town business? In district meetings petty jealousies crop out. In town meeting you can get the sentiment of the people. Sharon spends more money for roads than for schools. Force of public opinion caused good roads and will finally cause good schools. Many object to the town system as cen- powerful Czar than a district committee man when he wants to be? He has un- limited powor and no responsibility. A town committee would be responsible to the town and a committeeman could be be busted like any town official He said the system was worthy and hoped we would adopt it. MT. Hazard said he had always believed in the district sys- tenn but had now changed his belief and said he was also authorized to say that Selectman J. B. Smith (not present. was also in favor of town management. l. NJ. Bartram make a witty speech and favored town management. G. L. Smith spoke briefly. Rev. Mr. Mackay said that as ministers are not taxable in Connecticut he did not feel like saying much, but thought that absolutely noth- ing could be said in favor of the district system Willard Baker spoke briefly and ill favor of town management. Supervisor Wheeler said he would say nothing but keep still and saw wood. Figures were given to show that in some districts in town it cost as high as $75 per pupil for tuition. In district No. six $56.80 per pupil, district Noi five Gay StreeD $65.77 per pupil, dis trict No. 12 $68.67, high school in Sharon Valley $19.67, second room in the Valley $19.57. Some difference isn't there? Think about it.

PULPIT AND PEW
Happenings of Interest in Sharon's
 Religious Circles
Methodist Church


 Rev. A. 5. Wilson, superintendent of the Poughkeepsie district is making his first series of office visits to the pastoral charges on his district. He held the first quarterly conference for Sharon. on Thursday night of last week. The conference was well attended by the officials of it church, and the business of the hour was transacted ill a delightful spirit Dr. Wilson's visits always bring ubshine and leave pleas a 1t me nories. It would be a profitable thing for the churches if 1t were possible to have his presence with them monthly, rather than quarterly.
 Last Sunday was Epworth League day ill the Methodist churches through out the world. Iu the Sharon church, the anniversary services were held i'll the evening, from 6:45 to 7:30 by the league alone in its own room. The hour was packed with appropriate and spiritual singing, reading and recitations. At 7:3O more public services were held ill the auditorium. Though the unfa- vOrable weather caused the general attendance to be small, the league was out ill full force and ill the best of spirit.
 On Sunday afternoon, at two o'clock, Thomas Pendergast, of Amenia and Louise Wing Rundall, of Amenia Union, were united in marriage, by Rev. ". A. Mackey, at the M. k. parsonage, in presence of the brides parents.
