Improvements Will
Soon Be Completed

Within a. comparatively short time
the New York, New Haven & Hart
ford Railroad Company will have COM
pleted the double tracking Of a stretch
between Hawleyville and Shelton, and
big cutoff between Newtown and
Hawleyville. Relative to these I'M
provements, the road today issued the
following official statement:
"rhe line between Hawleyeville and
Shelton is being double-tracked, the
surface is being improved and grade
crossings eliminated. A short single
track tunnel. between Newtown and
Hawleyville, will be discontinued and
an open cut substituted for it.
''That portion of the line between
Hawleyville and Botsford Is partially
in service and the entire double-track
between these points will be in service
shortly
Work on these improvements has
been going on for about two years,
and the cost to the road has been
enormous. By the elimination Of the
tunnel and substitution Of an open
cut, about a mile will be saved. In
keeping with the work of improving
conditions in this section the town
authorities along the line have laid
asphalt streets and fixed things up in
great shape

Children are often made uncomfort-
able by being obliged to wear shoes
that are either too large or too small.
The mistake is made In buying. An
experienced shoe man who had made
childrens shoes special study adj
vises that the child wear thick stock
ings when trying on shoes. In many
cases the child will wear his best
hose. which are thinner than those
for every day, and then the new shoes
will be trife too tight when worn
with the thicker pair. Buy as good
leather as you can afford, but 1t is
not wise to buy the most expensive
shoes, for the child may outgrow
them. The shoe dealer above quoted
says that a shoe with wide, fiat,

The capital of our northernmost

"SantO Domingo has population OF
about 1000, and Is entirely different
from any other town in the Philip

buildings are of stone and white
washed. The roofs are made OF cogon

ford no purchase to the severe ty-

'The streets are about twelve feet
wide, many of them paved with stone.
Stone walls extend along both sides
of the streets their full length, giving
them the appearance of lanes. The
walls are about three to five feet in
height, broken at intervals for en-
frances to the yards, which IN turn
are separated from each other by
stone walls. Most Of the yards were,

You Will All Know 1t.

The legislature is coming in heavy on
the home stretch in appropriations.
More than $4,000, 900 have been levied
alone for university and normal schools.
This is done through tax upon the
whole property of the state, by 3 per
cent levy for university, so that when
you pay your tax next January you will
realize that on every 81. 900 of assess
able valuation you pay 80 cents tribute
to maintenance of the university. No
such stupendous amounts have ever be-
fore been levied upon the property of
the people.
And that is not the worst of it, for
everything touched by the present leg
islature has been handled in the same
extravagant way. The Censor has no
desire to see necessary appropriations
for educa tional purposes curtailed, but
the university is making demands far
beyone warrant. The management will
drive the people to an issue and the
election of members of the legislature
pledged to a more economical admins
tration of affairs. We do not upper
value the work and Importance of this
big state school, but when it is shown
in cold figures that it costs much more
to educate pupil in the university than
any other institution of higher learning
in the country; when it is shown that
instructors teach less than seven hours
a week; when it is shown that it costs
three dollars for one received to edu-
cate foreign pupils, We are forced to
the conclusion that there should be re-
vision of the schedules downward,
as the uneasy politician would say or
the tariff issue. - irOqua Censor.
