GARBAGE COLLECTION SYSTEM.
Considered by Chamber of Commerce
-Proffer Made by Stanton D. Wieks.

The proper collection and disposal
of garbage, a question that has been
much agitated recently. may soon be
arranged, if plans OF the chamber of
commerce are successfully completed.
Stanton D. WiclSs, of Doane Hall farm.
Pomfret hearing that a committee OF
the civic BODY was looking for some
one who would be interested, has made
an informal proposal to collect all the
garbage without charge, expecting to
John G.. Johnson, the chambers COM
mittee, are investigating and o pub
lie meeting will soon be called to hear
all sides of the question. 1t is planned
then to petition the common. council
for suitable ordinances. and ask them
to give anyone who is interested an
opportunity to bid for the exclusive
right of collection, under obligation to
give satisfactory service.
George H. Foss, supervisor of the
sanitary service under the highway di-
vision of the public works depart
ment of the city of Boston, made q
special trip here on Monday as the
guest of Mr.. Wiclzs. and went over the
ground thoroughly with him and with
the committee and officers of the
chamber. Mr.. Foss has held this posi-
ton for seven years, and is the typi-
cal efficient, well informed public Off
cial. His advice was most valuable
experimenting what Mr.. Wicks had
learned in his researches, and the
opinions the committee had formed as
the result of correspondence with other
cities, and visits to such places as
Norwood and Waltham. Printed mat
ter from the Boston mans office, re-
ceived, includes ordinances, rules and
notices to householders, and he will
also advise Mr.. Wicks as to routing
the city so as to make collections in
the most economical manner.
A meeting open to the public Will
be announced soon. So much interest
has been informally expressed by wom-
en- that strong attempt to enlist their
help and consult their opinion will be
made in this matter.

HISTORY OF SOCCER IS TOLD
Former President Of Leland Stanford

Hacking was recognized feature
Of the game, and when 1t was proposed
to abolish hacking, or kicking and
tripping, 1t was argued that all the
pluck and courage of the game would
be at an end.
In 1867 number of Sheffield play.
ers organized an association of their
own, and the game came to be played
almost as much In the north as In Lon.
don. Intercity matches began at this
time, and the players were distin.
guished principally by the vigor Of
their tactics.
"The first international match was
played in 1872 between England and
Scotland, and Immediately thereafter
numerous clubs sprang up all over the
country Professionalism was legalized
when 1t was seen that the professional
player was inevitable In the city clubs,
and from that time the game made

MEN TO DEFEND DAVIS CUP
Norman e. 6rookes and Anthony r.
WiIding Have Made Last Stand
for International Trophy.

Now that Norman F. Brookes and
Anthony F. Wilding have taken back
the Davis cup to the land of the kanga-
roo, by virtue of their victory over the
best America put forth, the thought
comes that this probably was the last
stand of the great Australians In the
battle for the international trophy.
Brookes, although still a wizard of
strokes and court tactics, loses his
strength and speed after hard ses-
sion on the courts, and In 1915 this
will be even more pronounced.
Wilding, too. although massive
athlete and sinewed like an OK, seems
70 be slipping backward, and has not
at any time since his appearance In
this country shown the form that for.
merly won him the championship of
all the world. He. too, will probably
be content now to step down with
Brookes, his captain, and let younger
men take up the burden of defending
the trophy they fought SO hard and so
CALAMITY to take back to the other side
of the world.
