FIGHT VACCINE;
PUPILS EXCLUDED
Parent, Who Refuses to Per-
nit incubation, Threatens
Court Proceedings.

Following the action of Principal
Morse. of the Ashland Public School,,
East Orange, in excluding the two
children of Mr.. and Mrs. Samuel Jar
Wis, of sos Main street, that city, be-
cause their father refused to permit
them TO be v~accinated, the next move
in the fight between the parent and
the Board of Education is being await
ed with interest. The children, Mar
tina, 10 years old, and Stephen, II, went
to school today, and, according to h
principal, they refused to permit DR..
Burenger, medical inspector, to inocu-
late them. Mr.. Jarvis threatens TO go
to court.
Matters were brought to a crisis at
the meeting of the board last night,
when Mr.. Jarvis, in a letter, con-
demned compulsory vaccination as a
barbarous~ practise and said that if any
one attempted to vaccinate his chill
dren he would treat him like a burglar.
DR.. Joseph Macdonald, a member of
the board, said that if the Jarvis chill.
dren were not vaccinated they would
be excluded from school n their
father would be summoned to court.
ut is extremely alarming" Mr.. Jar
Wis wrote, that men of your intelli-
gence will sanction a measure that
compels children to be inoculated with
cowpox to prevent smallpox. My chill
dren were vaccinated once and | was
foolish to allow it. If any attempt II
again 1 will treat him as l would a
burglar. 1t is a filthy method to per-
nit children to attend school to learn
such nonsense, and you can put me in
Jail, but even then I will not allow my
children to be vaccinated."

THREE sELEcTMEN ENOUGH.
So Say Many Citizens Who Are op-
 posed to Board of Five.

An effort to reduce the number of selectmen in Killingly from five to three will be made this fall. This is a change that has been advocated for some time, but not until the great amount of controversy that has occur red over the seiectmen during the past two years has the proposition received serious attention
 Prominent men who are advocating the change say that they believe that it would be one of the wiSest moves that the town could make, and they say that they are at loss to find a solitary sound reason why the board should consist of even three members, either from the standpoint of more efficient or more economical administration. In deed, some of the leading advocates for the change say that there is absolutely no question but that three men. shar- ig greater responsibility as individuals would get better results than IS now possible with five selectmen.
 A review of the State Register and Manual shows that out of the l6S towns in Connecticut more than 95 per cent. have boards of selectmen con sisting of only three members. Not one of the 10 towns in Windham coun- ty has more than that number. Only four other towns in the state-Brldge- port. Hartford, Litchfield, New Haven share with Killingly the arrangement of having five selectmen on thell boards. One town, Manchester, runs the number of selectmen up to seven East Haven manages to worry along with only one selectman. while lew | other towns limit the number, of such | officials to two or four.
 Those who want to reduce the num- | ber in Killingly suggest that as the ] town is divided into three voting dis | tricts it would be a simple proposition | to arrange an agreement giving se- | lectman to each district, no more, nc | less. They claim that there Is perfect l fairness in such plan and propose tC urge it with convincing perslstency. AS i the present board represents the ais 1 tricts. two members come from th' First two from the Third and one ron | +he Second and the Third district i' the least important from the stand | point of property assessments ana IT number of voters. The reduction. 1t is further held would simplify some of Killingly's DO l litical troubles, inasmuch as sucn l change if is said, would eliminate much of the so-caTed jockeying ant trading of strength that close ooserV
