TOWN SUPERVISOR.
School Committee Favors One, with
Brooklyn in the District.

The members of the town school
committee of Killinsly have voted in
favor of forming a supervision school
district with the town of Brooklyn,
and appointed a committee of three
of it's members to confer with the
members of the Brooklyn town school
com rnfttee raia tive to the proposed
plan. 1t is probable that the matter
will be submitted for the voters of
Brooklyn to pass upon at a special
town meeting, as the arrangement for
supervision in districts is not the same
rs under the method in favor of which
.the voters Of Brooklyn recently ex-
pressed themselves at the annual town
meeting. There are special and strong
reasons, however, in favor of the dis
krict supervision plan as opposed to
sther forms of state supervision and
ypon their explanation the people Of
