condition, comfortable, with no fever, and only the slight paralysis hitherto noted in face and one arm.
 Health Officer Brophy made the re- quest sunday evening that after today the public notify him at once of any strange children that may be seen in any netghborhobd in the city and he will take such an opportunity to ssIp- pIement the preventive work that the constables and police and others are doing.
 In regard to the frequent question that is asked him if children can be taken to the beaches for the day with safety and assurance of getting back, pr. Brophy stated that this is quite permissible, as the measures that have been taken are to restrict net the movements of Norwich people but of people coming into this city from places where infant1le paralysis is prevalent, But if parents take their children to cities where there is a chance for infection, they must be prepared on their return to undergo the customary three weeks quarantine
 Another reason khy he feels iustt. lied in keeping children from other cities out of Norwich is the fact that 1t is strongly probable that children who show no signs of the disease may bring it to healthy children. It seems that the Colchester case was one Of this kind as visitors from Brooklyn 10 Colchester appeared to be all right.
 The situation in New London 1c. mains unchanged. No new cases of the disease, either from that city or out of town, have been reported to the health department and the exclusion orders continue to keep children our of New London from the infected dis tricts.
 There were two children on the steamer from New York Saturday morning, but they were not destined to this city. One was bound for Put nam and the other was going to West erly and the health inspectors gave them permission to proceed
 Two of the victims of the disease at the contagion ward of Memorial hospital are seriously ill They are Vito Antonio from Noank and Diana Ellis from ATontviIIe Both have positive cases of the maIady and the paralysis is general. The other patients are reported normal.

ConstabIes Guard Norwich Entrances
Town Places Men at Yantic, East Great Plain and Trading Cove-Auto Party Turned Back by Officers Guard
 Another Family to be Quarantned.

Bright and early Sunday morning. the rigid exclusion measures Against infantile paralysis or its possibilities determined on by city and town of- flcials Friday went into effect. Theo- rectically, Norwich was as well prot tected against children carrying poliomyelitis as the French against Teutons at Verdun. All avenues of approach were blocked save by cross lots and very devious other routes And of many automobile parties held up during the day, one was quite re- fused admission, and another was ad- mitted to submit to a quarantine JNis morning.
 The selectmen, in carrying out their work of cooperation with the city, had the special constables chosen and at their stations Sunday morning. Big John Donovan, who has been doing ex- cellent scout duty at New London for over a week in turning back children there destined for Norwich from New York and the other diseased centers, was called back over the border of his own town, and placed as patrol at the line at Trading Cove, on the New London road At Baclxus corner. East Great Plain, Maurice Fitzgerald was placed in wait for all possible intrud CTS and at Yantic Meyer Blumenthal was at the fork in the road and sur veyed all children who came either from Bozrah way or from Franklin. The second line of defense was form ed by the police and they kept a keen eye on children from the trolley cars on the various routes.
 The result of this vigilance was that Officer Carroll at Thames square was able to turn back an automobile party containing children from New York, and that Officer Donovan held up Q Norwich family returning with chil- dren after a visit of several weeks in New York. These people were allow ed to return to their homes at No. 90 Sherman street, but they will be pIac- ed under quarantine this morning by Health Officer Brophy. These cases were the only ones that had been turned in from the various outposts Sunday evening and Drs. Brophy and Thompson were able to report the field clear in both city and town. At the Bacllus hospital Sunday night it was stated that the six year old girl HiIda Simon, of Colchester, was in the same

NORWICH BUSINESS
 COLLEGE
09 Main Street

Many business men are under the impression that students, after graduating from a business school, must be trained again after going into the office to work. This may be the case with some schools, but the Norwich Business College differs in many ways from other schools, inaSmuch as students receive real business training and before graduating are giv- en an opportunity to do real office work until they are com petent to assume the duties of a Stenographer.
 Our students receive actual business training in our office by doing correspondence for school and for outside parties. The above facts are some of the reasons why business men
 apply to the Norwich Business
 College when they want com potent StenographerS and
 bookkeepers.

HAVE GAS AND ELECTRIC
 OFFICE IN CITY BARN.
Plan to Remodel That Building, Mov- ing Horses to City Dump, Under Consideration.


 Plans to remove the office of tho street commissioner to the city hall, to remodel the city barn so that it may be used as the gase and electric de- artments office, and to house the citys horses in a new structure to be erect ed on the city dump are under con sideration, and as a means of saving gether more closely the various de- partments, are favored by the munici- pal government.
 Such proposition has been sub mitted by the committee on public works to the gas and electric com nissioners and the. latter are now awaiting definite plans to be sub mitted by the public works commit tee. The saving in rent to the city by the removal of the gas and elec- tric office to a municipal building would be S1.200 a year.. The change would, however, neceSSitate a certain amount of initial improvement at the city barn, among other things being new floors, more windows and a new front facing Bath street On the city dump a wooden barn could be built adequate to the needs of the depart ment without large expense. The prospective location of the street com missioner's headquarters in the city hall has not been definitely decided.
 At the present time the electric plant has to supplement the current received from the Uncas Power com pany at Scotland by running part of the plant on North Main street and during the installation of the new boilers there which are to be shipped August l and ought to arrive within the month it is considering asking the Willimantic nd Rockville Traction company for help if necessary in car ing for peak loads.
