MISS WOOD COLLECTS
 ALL MoNTvfLLE TAXES,
Woman Has Established Record for
 Collections in This State,

Miss Susie Wood. tax collector for the town of Montville has an envia- ble record in the matter of tax coliec- tions. Of a total of s3o,Oo0 in taxes for the 1915 rate, Miss Wood has collected all but s41.s4, and that amount was abated by the town officials for various reasons This undoubtedly esta blisf1es record for Connecticut in tax co1lectz ing and one which 1t will be hard to beat
 The rate book of the town of Mont vile for 1915 showed s2e ,o96. 90 for taxes and S197.23 for interest to be collected. Miss Wood succeeded in collecting s23, ,634.6S in taxes. s197. .93 for interest and s377.10 for liens and the exemptions amounted to s432s This left only a balance of S4dS4 un- collected and this amount was abated because Of death, inability to locate property owners who had moved from the town and other necessary reasons
 This record was accompii shed only by dint of hard work on the part of Miss Wood. She has exerted every possible effort to the tax collections. with the result that she has distin guished herself among the tax collect ors of the state. Miss Wood is daughter of the late George N Wood, for many years tax collector of Mont vile and deputy sheriff

part with which the nSportation
 committee has to do is that of fur
 nishoing one hundred automobiles for
 the automobile parade together with
 fifteen or twenty auto trucks. This is necessary to provide transportation for Boy Scouts, one hundred or more school children who are to take part in the patriotic songs, the Tierney Cadets, and members of the Chamber of CConmerce who will not otherwise
 be supplied with transportation. It was voted by the committee to get in personal touch with every one of the eight hundred automobile owners in the town of Norwich. inviting them to take part in the parade and encourage their families to attend the exercises at Mohegan Hill. The refreshment committee consisting of Henry B. Davenport Mrs Charming M Hunt ington. Mrs. William A.

 The Chamber Of Commerce wishes to thank you for your hearty cooper ation in our effort to fttingly cele- brate the opening Of the Mohegan Trail The opening day has been set for June 22nd at Mohegan Hill, this is on the 250th anniversary of the Bat tie at East Great Plain.
 First the executive committee, con- sisting of Rev. Joseph H. Selden, Gen. William A. Aiken and Hon. Wallace $.

 The committee has secured as the orator Of the day, Hon. F1avel s. Luther, president of Trinity College. It is most fitting that President Luther should be the orator at the opening exercises of the Mohegan Trail, Pres ] dent Luther being 9, native of Brook 1 yn, Windham County, and is we'll znown in this section of the state.

In certain communities retail dealers
are charging excessive retail prices
for coal In some localities merchants
enjoyed excessive profits In 1915 and
also in July. 1917.
This situation may exist even tho
the dealers are basing their present
prices strictly in accordance with the
regulations.
Where such a condition Is reported
in your territory we suggest that your
local committees make careful in
vestigation OF the cost of doing bust
ness by each OF the dealers and II 1t
appears that more than reasonable
profit is being enjoyed by the dealers
then the committee should arrive at
a fair and reasonable profit to this
office.
Il will then pass upon the recon-
mcndations OF the local committee and
determine whether their findings are
equitable and just to consumer and
retailer as we'll. The state administra-
tor is then empowered to confirm such
prices subject to appeal to the United
States administrator. The same pro-
ceeding may be taken where it appears
| that the retail prices are so low that
it is a rank injustice to the retailer
to operate under them
1T Is advisable to base the profit
| allowed any dealer on a fiat basis rath-
err than the percentage basis as the
latter would give the less efficient
dealer with large costs a larger act
ual profit than the more efficient deal
