TEACHERS WILL GIVE SERIES
 OF LECTURES
Hon. Henry Clews and Other Prominent Men Have Been
 Enrolled on Program

The Bridgeport Teachers Organiza- tion will shortly present to the public an opportunity to enjoy a lecture lar subjects of the hour.
 On March 9, A. Radcliffe Ingmore. F. R. G. s., will speak on Photo graphing Afrioa's Live Game on the Roosevelt Hunting Trail" The world wide interest bestowed upon the thrilling achievements of our form CT president is of such recent date that the lecturers audience will probably follow with particular zest one who has gone over the same ground. In addition, the lecture will be very fine ly and completely illustrated with views. Ingmore has been described by those competent to judge as a winner" regardless of his sub magnetism, he presents an attractive subject, his lecture must prove a popular one.
 The Hon. Henry Clews will be heard on the evening of March 30, on "Individualizing AS a Key to Success 2 the business and financial world have surely earned for him the right to instruct others as to the means to- ward success. And since that is the goal toward which we are all striving, we will doubtless be only too willing to surrender ourselves to his guid- ance on that evening.
 The Hon. James Watson, congress man from Indiana. Will come direct from the Peace Conference in New York, to give the final lecture of the course on May 4, his subject being '"rhe Court of Last Resort" Because he will talk on a subject, interest in which marks of inc hi0pnCf strides toward humanizing humanity, there can be no doubt that his sub ject will be a most timely one.
 The lectures will be given at the High School hall, and a course tick ct for the three lectures will be one dol lar. There has been a very frequent lament because the lecture courses formerly given under the auspices of the teachers of the public schools have been discontinued. Therefore, it is expected that the present course will be received with very hearty ap- prOyal

ANNEXATION OF STAMFORD IS
 NOT DUE NOW
Absence of Any Consider able Sentiment Favorable to Scheme Will Kill Pend ing BilIs-Big Anti-Senti- ment at Hartford, Tester day..
Especial to Farmer.)

Hartford, March 2--The scheme TO annex Stratford or any portion of it to Bridgeport by the aid of the pres ent legislature got a body blow yes terday. The committeee on New Towns and Probate Districts was as- sured yesterday that there is no ac- tual sentiment in either Bridgeport or Stratford favorable to the idea and it is foregone conclusion that they will report adversely to the claim of the petitioners.
 Attorney James A. Marr of Bridge port represented what he designated as "The Annexation Club" of Strat- ford composed. he said of some 250 residents, voters and taxpayers most ly residing along the western slope of the town known as Hollister that the club had been formed at his office night or two ago. MT. Marr reminded the committee that he also represented all of the manufacturing industries in Stratford. the Smith Sil- yer Co. the American Lacquer Co.,, the Baird Machine Co.,. and the c. J. Lake Co- The Baird Co.,, he said was going to spend s100.000 on it's plant and would be ready for work next fall when 300 hands would be em- ployed- He said that annexation was sure to come; it might not this year but it would in the immediate future as the workingnen of Stratford who are growing in numbers look longing ly across the "dead line.' to Bridge port and see their fellow there en- toying all of the comforts of an up to date city and paying little if any more in taxes for it than they are paying for no improvements to speak of.
 Mir Marr made 1t plain that the petitioners did not want to bring about the change unless it met with the approval of a majority of the voters of Stratford. For that pur- pose he asked that the question be left to the Judgment of the voters of the town of Stratford and to the Com mon Council of Bridgeport
 He said that there existed real sentiment for the annexation among the business and manufacturing i'm terests of Bridgeport. There could be no question that Bridgeport needed more territory for it's constantly >ex- banding manufacturing needs and the logical way to look for that was to- ward the East the direction which the growth of the city was taking.
