MAYOR SUGGESTS NEW
 ORDINANCES NEEDED
Loads of Garbage Should Be Covered.--Circus License
 Too High
Council Meeting Mid Summer
 Nisht's Nightmare

The common council met in regular session Tuesday night The only absentee was Alderman-at-large Ames The council room had been closed for a month. There is no official thermometer on the bare walls. For tunately there was nothing to precip- itate a heated argument else one or more casualties might have to be re- ported. The meeting was altogether informal and coats. and even collars, were discarded. It was a veritable mid summer nights nightmare.
 Ordinances were the outstanding feature of the meeting. A communi- cation was received from B. D. Bug bee calling attention to the litter caused by loads of refuse being car ried to the city dump. Not only does litter appear in the streets but is is waited to front lawns if a breeze is blowing.
 Mayor Richard said he quite agreed with the suggestion set forth in the communication. Superintendent of Streets Dumas said that Health Of ficer Gardner had notified all engaged in carrying refuse to the dump that the loads should be covered.
 The mayor said he thought the matter should be referred to the ordi- nahce committee and an ordinance containing a slight penalty for non observance should be drawn up so that covering loads of garbage can be enforced. 1t was so referred. .g Circuses
 Just before the meeting adjourned Mayor Richard submitted the sub feet of license fees for circuses. He said that Putnam exacts a fee of s100 and that the amount has been found to be prohibitive. He said that in other cities S35 and $50 are charged. While some think circus es are detrimental to the community I think it is good thing to have a

Edison Winner Son
 Of Woodstock Native
A. O. Williams Jr. Descended from Local Family-Populsr with Cous- ins-Boy's Uncle Comments on Character

Arthur 0wney Williams, Jr., East Providence, winner over forty-nine boys from ali states and territories of the Union in the second annual Edi- son Scholarship which carries with it a full college course at the famous in- ventor's expense is the son of Arthur Owney Williams who was born in Woodstock and attended the Wood stock Academy and nephew of AL bert Williams of Sprucedale.
 The Williams have lived m Wood stock for several generations, the great grandmother of the scholarship winner having been born on the boat enroute to America. His father has another brother besides Albert who lives in Shelton.
 Taught School
 After graduating from Woodstock Academy in the late nineties, Will Hams senior, taught school both in Woodstock and in Pomfret. He then moved to East Providence and enter ed the banking business. Some years afterwards. he purchased farm near Chepachet but later moved back to East Providence where he is now em- Hlutt0 uI NUf 1da N'AAT pany. The young winner was born in East Providence.
 Albert Williams the boys uncle gave an interesting sidelight on the kind of character and interests which won the coveted scholarship for the boy when he described him as all ways more interested in reading and studying than in playing, when he was on one of his frequent visits in Woodstock. This does not mean that he was at all priggish for his victory is a very popular one with his overall led cousins.
 The Willtms' of Woodstock just turned on their radio when the news of their relations triumph came over the air. This was the first intimation that he had been successful.

WILL LEAVE IT
 CITY COURT
Putnam Police Will Not Take Up Driving Licenses of
 Operators
State Police Will Comply With
 Commissioner's Request

The Putnam police will not take up the driving licenses of motor ve- hicle operators arrested on charges of reckless driving or driving while under the influence of liquor. An nouneement of this decision was made by Captain of Police Dubreuil Mon day morning.
 Recently, through a delegation of his power to police departments, Rob- bins B. Stoeckel. state commissioner of motor vehicles, requested all de- partments in the state to seize the licenses of drivers arrested for reck- less driving or while under the in- fiuence of liquor before the accused drivers have been brought to trial in the courts
 The Putnam police department, ac- cordlng to Captain Dubreuil, declines to accede to the request. The police departments of Norwich, New Haven and Bridgeport have also declined to follow the motor vehicle commission CTS request.
 Let the court take away the dri- ver's license after the driver has been convicted" is the attitude of the To- cal police. Captain Dubreuil says that drivers are sometimes arrested and when brought into court are found not guilty. He feels that the author ity of taking away licenses should re- main province of the court. He does not believe it is a matter for the po- lice.
 State Police Will Comply
 xx1l... ...tf1 a.xs.xl.. ....s h the request of Commissioner Stoeck- el. In making announcement to this effect Commissioner Robert T. Hur- ley states that Where we find per- son operating a car while under the influence of liquor we will take up his license forthwith. Should we find one driving recklessly of evading re- sponsibility, and there is prima facie evidence of liquor, we will take away his license and present him in court on charges of operating while under the influence of liquor and with reck- ess driving or evading responsibility as the case may be. If we find no indications of his being under the in- fluence of liquor but he Is guilty of reckless driving or evading responsi- bility, we shall not take away his li- cense but will present him in court on proper charge as we are now doing.
 The above applies to operators li- censed to drive cars on the highways of the state. With relation of out of state drivers Commissioner Hurley says the licenses will not be taken up but the accused will be brought to court and placed under bonds on any of the three charges mentioned.

School Days

Too many mothers seem to
think that when the baby has
safely passed his second birthday.
their greatest responsibility has
been fulfilled and they can relax
their supervision.
But such Is far from true, for
between the ages Of 2 and 6
greater changes take place, ply
sically and mentally, than at any
other time in the child'S develop
ment.
Coincident with this develop
ment comes the first year in
school. The little 6-year-old
child's happy runabout activities
are suddenly changed into the
sedentary occupation Of q chair
and desk-with the usual added
demand Of mental concentration,
supplemented by the many
"Don'ts" Of the school room.
Any sudden. physical change is
upsetting; mothers must compel
plenty of outdoor exercise after
school hours and see that the
food intake is properly balanced
