COUNTY IS DIVIDED
 EnR RnN

FOX BOY SCOUT " Ohh
 National scout headquarters has de- cided to divide New London county into two parts for the purposes of scouting, namely a northern and southern diyis- ion. Scout Executive Frederick E, Bur dick of New London will supervise the extension of scouting in the southern half of the county and Scout Executive Frederick A. Benton of the Norwich Council will have charge of the northern division.
 This is for the purpose of placing smaller towns directly under the super vision of first class council, rather than under the supervision of the national headquarters of New York. The smaller towns of the county can thus keep in closer touch in scouting. Scout masters and officials can be secured more ad- vantageously In this way, because local supervision will enable troops to reg ister, secure scouting literature and have ! frequent visits from the executive. This will also give an opportunity to keep ir l touch with the exact state of affairs in | the suburban towns.
 1 In accordance with this division oi the county, any troops or scouts in the northern half of the county are expectej l to register for the Norwich Council Camr l Tippecan to be held July IS to August 1 1921. It is hoped by the executive that such scouts will avail themselves of tho opportunity and cordial welcome ]; extended them.
 Among the scout executives chosen by Regional Scout Executive R. N. Berry of Boston for discussion of problems ant the securing of data therefor, F. A. Ben ton of Norwich, Connecticut, has beer named to study the question of "Trool Committee" and report at the scout ex ecutives conference to be held in Sep tember.

 The 1887 class was the first Acad emy class to be graduated from Slat. rr Hall, at which time Rev. MT. Bail. cy delivered an oration.

WOMEN AND MOTHERS
 SHUDDER AT DANCES
State Association to Also Take Action. Against Cues
 tionabIe- Clothing.

Hartford, March 22.-Alarmed aft the increase of questionable forms of dancing. accentuated by equally oues- tionable forms of dress, officers and members of Mothers and Women's clubs in the state and in Hartford nave proposed to bring the question of modern dancing before the State Congress of the Mothers clubs which Will be held at Meriden April IA and To. and devise some plan which will mean drastic reform of some of the asserted dangerous developments in connection with modern dancing.
 IL has been noticed. say officers of these clubs. that restraint is being, more and more cast 10 the winds at dances and that questionable posi- tions and movements are being coun- tenanced and practiced to an increas- ing degree. The mothers have taken notice of what they have seen and heard and they have also felt that to remedy the situation concerted action by them will be necessary Conse- quently a movement on a large scale will be started to curb immoral dances and to improve forms of dress as worn at dances.
 Mrs George T. Chandler of Rocky HiH. president of the Connecticut Congress of Mothers, said that under the head of recreation" the question of dancing and dress would be taken up at the Forthcoming convention at Meriden. Tt is quite clear that the proper control of dancing will mean change in the prevalent method of chaperonage." she said today. Speak ing my own mind in the matter I feel that private chaperons are entirely unsatisfactory. Private chaperons are usually friends of the family whose young people they have been asked to supervise. Under such conditions it requires too much courage to get up and tell the couple to change position or leave the hall. But a public chap eron. whether a man or a woman can do so."

SYMOLON FINED $2OO
 ON LIQUOR CHARGES
Persistent and Scheming Violator," Lawyer
 Sexton Says.

. Charged with keeping liquor with intent to sell and with having been previously found guilty of a similar charge, Stanislaus Symo1on was fined $200 and costs in police court this morning by Judge George w. Klett. Liquor Prosecutor M. A. Sexton termed the accused a persistent and scheming violator" and recom- mended that no leniency be shown in his case. Symolon was represented by Lawyer Henry Nowicki.
 Sergeant William c. Hart and Pa- trolman John Iiebler visited Symo- Ions saloon last week where they found quantity of booze and glasses, indicating a t1ourishing business. The bottles were concealed in a sort of cupboard built into the wall in the back of the bar. So cleverly had the cupboard been constructed, that it was impossible to find the door until after a section of the wall had been ripped out, Sergeant Hart testified.
 Symolon was in court about a year ago on a liquor charge and was found guilty. ....
 A fine of $50 was exacted from Nicola Messina, charged with having intoxicants on hand with intent to sell. An analysis was made of cider seized in his store showing five per cent alcohol. Four barrels of wine were also taken by the police. Judge F. R. Hungerford.. who appeared for Messina, announced that he would contest the condemnation of the wine when it comes before the court since it represents the family supply.
