Remarkable Coincidence.

Pittsfield, ILL.,, Feb. 10.-Mrs. John
Courtney, whose death occurred at
Granite City, ILL.,, Tuesday, was bur-
led here today, services being held
at the home of her father, Marion
Heavener, south of Pittsfeld. The
death of Mrs Courtney and Mrs.
Harry Greve, of Venice, ILL.,, at about
the same time Tuesday, revealed
the peculiarly parallel lives of the
two women. Mrs. Courtney, who
was Lottie Heavener, and Mrs.
Greve was born in Pittsfeld, March
20, 1887, and spent their childhood
days here. While attending the
same school they were inseparable
companions until moving away
from this city on the same day.
They met Courtney and Greve on
the same day and both were mar
ried April rs of last year.
On Thursday of last week a baby
boy was born to Mrs. Courtney and
on the same day Mrs. Greve gave
birth to girl. Five days later both
of the remarkably parallel lives
ended on the same day. The fu-
nerals were held here today.

CHILDREN's CLUBS AND
 GLASSES ARE CLOSING
Nearly 400 Boys and Girls Have Been Helped by Welfare Work for ChiI- qrsn.

With the coming of June, the chil- dren's clubs and classes connected with the United Workers are closing for the season. During the past year nearly four hundred boys and girls have been registered in these organ izations, which are fcrmDed for the purpose of training the children in so- cial and industrial lines in order that they may become more useful mem bers of the community in which they live. and better citizens than they might otherwise be. These clubs and classes numbering twenty-five in all and meeting once a week, have been taught and directed by a faithful com pany of thirty volunteer workers. who have freely given their time and their services to a work. the importance of which they see more clearly as the days go by.
 In addition to the attention received st the weekly gatherings, each child is called upon at it's home at least once during the year
 The only reason why the club mem bershp has not been greatly Increased Is because 1t has been impossible to find q sufficient number of men who were willing to take charge of boys from ten to fifteen years of age. More than q hundred sucn boys nave been eager to come into the club depart ment, but have been turned away be- cause there was no one to take them in hand. Unless some provision is made for these boys and others like them, an opportunity for doing much good is simply thrown away,
 The custom of giving each eiub CT class an outing of some kind at the eli of the year is being observed as Usual These outings. which are a great delight to the C-,352~en, cost the i United Workers nothing.
 In fact, the club department, as q
 whole. considering the number of children reached and the amount of work done, has been very economically 1 conducted, but if the growing de-
 nanas made upon it are not met by the men and money necessary to its i maintenance, it's progress must of ne- cesstty be seriously retarded.
 1 Is it not our privilege as citizens of Norwich to take a still deeper interest in this welfare work for children2 He
 who helps & child" says Phillips ! Brooks, helps humanity with dis 1 tlnctness which no other help given to l human creatures can possibly give"

 Total state additions .... s92, ,935, ,O0O Towns to Whose Lists No Additions
 Are Made.
 New London County-East Lyme, Lebanon, Waterford.
 Middlesex County-Clinten, Essex, Middlefield, Middletown, Portland, Westbrook.
 Holland County-Coventry, Stafford. There are thirty seven towns to whose lists no addition is made this year, which is a decrease of three from last year. Eight towns voIun- tarily increased their lists in 1911 to an approximate statutory basis, and. as heretofore, such increases have ex- ceeded materially the previous addi- tions by the board of equalization, and ten other towns by revaluations in creased their total assessment lists from sixteen to fifty-tw per cent. Several other towns have a much larger list than last year, but it is not claimed that the assessed valua- tion of the property approximates the statutory basis.
 The additions to the lists have been made by the board after considering definite information supplied by town officials. the results of personal inves- tlgauOn or other competent testimony relative to assessment valuations. The action has been taken in accordance with the requirements of the statutes, and, also, to prevent so far as possi- ble the penalizing of those towns which have voluntarily placed their lists on the statutory basis. As heretofore 1t has been necessary to make additions to the lists of some towns because of acknowledged lower percentage of as- sessment on certain special property, although an effort Is made to keep up the general property valuations.
 The reyaIuation of all the property in the towns at regular periods is of definite business advantage to the community, overcomes inequalities, permits as rule a lower tax rate, and furnishes proof to the board of equal ization of the percentage of assessed valuation. All towns that have taken this step are convinced of it's benefit
 The board of equalization includes Costello Lippitt. treasurer; Thomas D. Bradstreet, comptroller; William H Corbin, tax commissioners.
