blocking the way to their opponents.

BEER vATs TO HOLD OIL FOR R & " LIGHTING ro

Beer vats of the latest design are re- cent addition to the plants of the Rock wiley -Willimantic Lighting Company. They are not for the storage of beer, nor is the company in the market for beer glasses, in spite of rurnors about Rockville. The company bought 12 of of oil and six were unloaded at the West Street plant in Rockville Monday, while the other six viii be used in Williman- tic.
 The vats are about ten feet in dfame- ter and twenty fat high, having ca pacity of 15,000 gallons each. The com pany had to secure a special permit to bring them from Worcester to Rockville as they are much wider than the cars. The contract for unloading them and placing them in position for the storage of oil has been awarded to David Ahern of Willimantic. The company has run short of gas oil on numerous occasions Now it will be able to store full years supply in these tanks. The old tanks will still be used for storing oil for daily
 use while the new vats will be used fol | reserve supply.
 Many improvements have been made
 at the plant during the past few | months. SN1e oil tanks which were for
 merly buried below ground have beer placed on concrete foundations by Con | tractor Ahern. The company has suf i fered the loss of much oil through leak
 age, while the tanks have been undel J ground The slightest leak will now b, 1 in plain sight.

PASSENGER TRAIN HITS
 AITo AT CROSSING

The Erin street crossing was again the scene of an automobile and train accident on Tuesday af ernoon when the automo- bile truck driven by Henry L. Plante miracu,ously escaped being demolished by scant margin of six inches. MT. P.ante escaped injury.
 Shortly after 3 o'clock Tuesday after noon MT. Plante drove his truck down Erin street to cross the tracks He had the machine in gear and was braking against compression. When almost at the track he became aware of the ap- proach of the 3.05 rorthbound train. He put on his emergency brake, stopping the car and stalling his motor, few inches from the track. Being unable to start 1 the motor. he jumped from the truck and in a few seconds the train rushed by. The engine and the first car of the | train missed the truck by hair, but the
 second car. which was of another type, being wider than the first car, struck the rnudguards of the machine, badly bending | both of them. Otherwise the machine | was little damaged.
 Had the machine stopped six inches | nearer the rails, the truck would have
 been a total wreck. The place where the accident happened is where a Norwich
 man was killed some time ago.

TIMELY DISCOVERY PREVENTS
 SERIOUS FIRE Loss

At 11.55 a. m. Tuesday the fire depart ment responded to a telephone call for small fire in a bedroom at No. 20 Oak street. The house is occupied by John Martin and family.
 Children had been playing in the bed room during the early morning and had knocked small electric bedroom lamp down between twin beds. While jumping on the mattresses the cord attached to the lamp chafed and the insulation wore off short circuit was the result and the resistance was so great that the fuses In the cellar were blown.
 Mrs. Martin had been out during the morning and on return a few minutes before 12 discovered the mattresses on both beds burning. She immediately tel l ephoned to the fire department and af- ter notifying them did what she could to put the fire out in spite of the heavy choking smoke that filled the room. The firemen squelched the flames with two | three-gallon tanks of chemical The fire | had the earmarks of a bad blaze and
 would probably have resulted in serious loss if it had had a few minutes more to gain headway. Both mattresses were
 destroyed and rug was partly burned

DECIDED IMPETUS GIVEN
 HIGH SCHOOL EDUCATION

A decided impetus has been given to secondary school education in Connecticut by the action taken by number of towns in erecting new high schools for other wise providing facilities for high school education within the limits of the towns There are at present eighty-one high schools in the state and sixteen cities and towns have taken the preparatory steps for the erection of new high schools. These towns are Hartford, Ansonia, Bris- tol, Danbury, Greenwich, Seymour, Shel- ton. Thomaston, West Hartford, Windsor
 Bullkeley school at New London, Madison, Old Lyme, Leba non, NeWtown and Glas- | tonbury.
 Some of the towns are enabled to take | steps forward in educational progress by l bequests left them for the building of l high schools. Old Lyme has been left a | bequest which will provide an income of
 nearly S10 900 year. It was hoped that | the terms oe the bequest would enable
 the school authorities of that town to use | the money, or a substantial part oe it, in 1 the development of school facilities along 1 lines other than secondary education. 1 But a strict construction of the will in | which the bequest was ,, makes it ar 1 obligation on the part of town officials l to use the entire amount of the bequest for high school purposes.
 l The operation Of the law in regard tc
 state grants for high school purposes may Icompel the following 13 towns to erect Thigh schools: Cromwell, East Haddam South Windsor, Newington, PlainviIle
 Cheshire, East Hampton, Ellington, Nortl Haven, Pomfret, Trumbuh, New Canaan
 and Darien. Up to this year these town'
 received a grant from the state which en
 aIbled them to send their children wlio de
 sired a high school education to neigh
 boring towns where high schools wer established. The state grant in each cas was $50 for tuition and sS0 for transpor , tation. The towns were entitled to tn grant because their grand lists cam , within the amounts limited by law. The board of equalization has increas ed their grand lists and the towns ar now in the class which are supposed b
 the law to be able to provide high schoc , education without the assistance of tt. , state. In the future these towns wi F have the alternative of erecting hig s schools or providing tuition and traz. portation out of their resources The ! may decide to build rather than continu
 to send their children to high schools
 other towns at the expense of their Tom 6 towns.
