There are some citizens of Brook l lyn who are interested to know just | why the Lords Day league should l reach out long arm from it's offices warning upon Philip Gilbert, keeper ! of store in, the neigboring town, l against his place of usiness being open Sunday. | If. the laws of the state of Connec- 1 t;eut are being violated, there cer- tainly is authority enough inside of this states border to see that it's laws are enforced without the league sbutting in,'' as these Brooklyn men who are referred to see the situa- Iion. = Their contention is that if Mr. Gil- bert is to be obligated to keep his place of business closed on Sunday, l that the same should be required of l other Brooklyn storekeepers and 1 dealers who make regular practice | of doing Sunday busness, and they purpose to see to it that all are serv- 1 ed and treated alike in case any eff l .ort is made to select Mir. Gilbert l .or discriminative treatment.
 l Stores keep open on the Sabbath in 1 East Brooklyn and at West Waure-' | gan, which is in the town of Brook | Iyn, as we'll as at Brooklyn village. | The selection of MT. Gilbert as a spe- cial object of attack while other store l keepers have net received any sim- liar warning, so far as could be learn d on Wednesday, Is puzzling as is 4Iso the reason for the warning com .ng to him through what would be considered an irregular channel in stead of from Brooklyn's own of licials, who have power to do every -hing-and more-in this case than could the Lords Day league.
 First Seiectrnan John A. Gilbert has received petition asking for a special town meeting to act upon the matter of appropriating certain sum of money for the erection of a new schoil building at Goodyear, and the selectmen of the town have arranged to call the meeting for March 16.
 The petition is signed by practic- ally all of the members of the town ;chool committee and by a consid- erable number of well known citizens
 This special meeting will be one. ot he most important that the town aas recorded in years. < The matter ot providing adequate school facilities tor Goodyear is a pressing one, and il the town is to keep pace with the rapid growth of Goodyear in provid , ng school accommodations for the 2 children of school age that are now l i here and that will pour in there by , | October, when the new mill will be . completed, action tending to provide tor 8 suitable building must be taker at once. I The Goodyear company stands tc contribute something like s52, 900 to- ! | ward the erection of a new school tc cost approximately s1oo, 900. A grea majority of the citizens see in this -open- -handedness of the big corpora Llon that fine spirit of cooperation that should be the means of the towr nd the company going far oa the road of prosperity together in the years to come. Killingiy has had its opportunities to grow in the past md has turned them down, and al least one generation has heard the 4Edless mourn ng that has followed | Today Killingly has another ant sreater chance to develop in greater degree than any town. herea bouts Boosting along the school building program at Goodyear is the first steI oa this road to prosperity. The com pany offers to pay 9 per cent. of th' | cost of the building, take the presen school building off the hands of tn, town at what it cost to build tfas schoo and to donate a fine site fol the new building.
