VOTE FIVE MILL TAX.
Fourteen Citizens Attend Special City
 Meeting Which Lasts Five Minutes.

Only one over a bakers dozen of the voters of Willimantic was interested enough to attend the special meeting called for Monday afternoon at ? o'clock to lay the city tax. Five mills was decided upon, to be due June l, 1915. The meeting lasted but five min utes.
 Mayor Dunn was in the chair, and after the warning had been read by City Clerk A. c. Scripture, Corpora tion Counsel Charles A. Capen ex- plained that the floating indebtedness of the city was $17,000 and the amount of the appropriations for this year $s7,- $50. It had been estimated by the mayor, the clerk and himself that about $SO,9O5 would be the amount actually expended this year, which with the floating indebtedness made a total of $97, ,905 to be raised by tax. A five mill tax would bring $Ss,060, with the S3,50O cash on hand, while five and one-half mill tax would just clear up all of the bills and floating indebt- edness.
 The resolution making the tax five mills was then carried, and the meet ing adjourned.

HOME FOR THE AGED
Will Be Erected on Land Purchased on
 Windham Road.

As a result of a recent purchase of land on Windham road, the home for the aged promises to become an actu- ality. This has been talked of for some time in this city and given an impetus by the legacy left for that purpose by Hannah T. Card, who died in October of last year.
 The property purchased is what is known as the Willimantic Gun club property and consists of two strips of land on the proposed McDermott ave- nue and Frances street. One strip has a frontage on the avenue of 633 feet and about the same depth. The other fronts on the avenue 55 feet and on Frances street 142 feet. It is on a hill but a short distance from the trolley and an ideal location for such an institution.
 The money with which the land was bought Is no part of the Card fund, which is still in settlement in the pro- bate court, but is the result of hard work on the part of the Kings Daugh- ters and Sons of this city, who have worked for this project for some time
 Plans for the erection of buildings are not yet complete. Under the will of Mrs. Card, the trustees of the home are Herbert R. Chappell, Samuel Chesbro, Rev. William $. Beard, Mrs. Helen Battey Brown and William A. Arnold.
