 Plainville democrats will be the beneficiaries of a move which is thought 10 be the first of its kind
 in the state when on Thursday night. they will be furnished free trolley tickets to Sonthington and return in order that they might attend the democratic rally which Is to be held lin the town hall In that town. The tickets will be in the hands of the members of the democratic town committee and also will be given to Mrs. Fred Powers of East Main
 street and other members of the democratic woman's club. The troll ley tickets will be distributed. to all desirous Of attending the rally and will furnish transportation for the four fares, two to soutbington and 1.-two to return.
 | William J. Foran, chairman Of the democratic town committee, stated this morning that the main reason for this move was because of the fact that a democratic rally which had been scheduled for Plainville had to be cancelled for the present and the sonthington affair is to be such a big one that the state cen tral committee wanted all to have an opportunity of hearing the speak, CTS on the program.
 The rally will be held in the town l hall in Southington starting at 8 p, m. and the speakers who will ap- l near will be Charles G. Morris, candidate for governor on the dem- ocratic ticket; Philip Troup, former postmaster of New Haven: Louise Day Duffy of Pennington, candidate for state senator, and Johnstone Vance of New Britain, candidate for congressman.
 The Plainville democrats who are 1 to attend will leave either on the 7:14 D. m. trolley from fle center
 or on the TIA p. m. trolley both Of them arriving in Southington in time for the opening of the rally. Mir. Toran and Mrs. Fred Powers, leading woman democrat in Plain vile both stated today that they ex- pected one of the largest delegations to attend the rally that has ever turned out from Plainviile. Because of the importance of the speakers to
 address the meeting and the inter-
 est attached to the present cam paign, they urge all democrats to
 hold Thursday night open for the
 Southington rally.
 Thrift System in Schools A new thrift system has been in-
 augurated in the Plainville public
 schools this year by the Education
 al Thrift Service of New York. This
 aystem is being used in many large
 city schools and also in many towns
 and is considered one of the best of its kind.
 The town school committee of | Plainville voted at a meeting held
 last summer to give the system a trial here in Plainville in the schools
 and it was started on October z. A
 representative of the company visit
 ed all the rooms and explained it to
 both the pupils and the teachers. The following letter has been re-
 ceived by Principal OrEn L. Judd
 of the local schools from the Edu-
 cational Thrift Service of New | York;
 We are pleased to note from the
 report of Mir. L. r. Pope of our in-
 stallation staff that 67 per cent of
 the pupils enrolled in the schools of
 Plainyille opened accounts in the
 school savings system on the first
 bank-day. The average of Educa-
 tional Thrift Service on the first
 bank-day is 57 per cent; therefore.
 according to our records, the school
 savings installation in Plainville is
 remarkable and one that g7your
 schools have a right to be proud of. "Ne have installed this system in
 over 300 towns and cities, and we
 are well aware that 67 per cent on
 the first bank-day can be the result
 of only one thing, an unusually ef- ficient and effective organization in
 the schools. We do believe that
 Educational Thrift Service deserves
 to be considered as having con- tributed its small share to this
 achievement, but we are we'll aware
 that the persons who chiefly deserve
 congratulation are yourself and teachers. "very sincerely,
