 REPORT GIVEN
 OUT BY MAYOR
Ten Recommendations for Improvements Made by
 C. A. Smith in Report
(Continueo rom Page One)

Fifth. One half of the high pressure reservoir should be kept full, a capacity of 100000 gallons for fire reserve with arrangements made for quickly turning this sup ply into the system in case of a larger fire. A recommended method would be the installation of an elec- trically operated gate valve which controls at the valve and also re- mote control at the fire station with wire connection to reservoir.
 Sixth. Provision should be made to extend the low pressure system and supply as many consumers as can be adequately served from this system and supply as the low pressure supply has been ample in the past and thus relieves as much of the demand from the high pres sure system where the shortage has occurred.
 Seventh. Additional feeder main should be constructed to supply the area west of Gold Creek. With a larger feeder main a portion, at least, of this area could be sup piled at lower pressures with a supply from storage in the Hume tunnel fed jointly from the high system and an emergency connec- tion to the low system.
 "The tunnel if properly bulk headed at both ends would pro- vide a storage capacity of approxi- mately 650,000 to 100000 gallons. The elevation of the lower end of the tunnel according to infornla- tion furnished by MT. Lewis is about no which would provide a pressure of 35 to 45 pounds over the low area of the district west of Gold Creek and along the wat CT front to the east The cost of this storage would be very small with the exception of the neces- sary pipe line connection to the distributing system.
 Cooperation Is Urged
 Eighth. In view of the fact that the supply is limited during peak demands occurring in severe weather, efforts should be made to conserve and utilize the supply in

 As Eadie Chapman, the ambi- tious showgirl who became a. so- cial climber, Miss Harlow gives one of the most entertaining perform ances of her career.
 Her big ambition is to marry a millionaire for she is determined to have financial security along with the wedding ring.
 She becomes engaged to one middle-aged bachelor, but he com mits suicide few minutes after acknowledging the engagement. She next centers her attentions upon Lionel Barrymore, financial and political power in national af- fairs, and inadvertently falls in love with Barrymore's son, played by Franchot Tone.
 Miss Harlow finally "gets her man," but only after series of hilarious situations, one of which hands her behind jail bars, the victim of frane-up.
 Barrymore plays the character of T. R. Paige, the capitalist, whose political appointment is al- most ruined by one of Eadie's pranks.
 Tone appears as Barrymore's son, Tom, and wins new screen honors as one of the most persist ent lovers seen upon the screen in many months.
 Lewis Stone, recognized as one of filmdom's finest actors, does we'll with the brief role that is given him as Cousins, bachelor financier who offers to marry Eadie.

i NAugatuck, Sept. 7.-Naugatuck residents heard with surprise and regret today that 8 letter of resig- nafion marking the end of teach- inr for probably the most illus 4rious instructor in the grammar schools of Naugatuck was read at the meeting of the board of educa- lion yesterday. Miss Josephine A. Maher. principal of Salem school, who has taught in the borough for 56 years, sent in the letter an- nouncing her resignation which was accepted by the board.
 The letter which is addressed to the board, dated Sept. 5 and re- ceiyed by Chairman Charles ko- denbach yesterday morning, com ing as a complete surprise, follows: sGentlemen: Recent events have so shaped themselves 1t seems best for me to tender my resignation as principal of Salem school, which l do herewith.
 May I not take this occasion to express my appreciation of your unvarying kindness, courtesy and cordial cooperation always given without stint, especially in extend- ing my term of service.
 Ernestly thanking you for these and all other favors,
 Yours most sincerely,
 JOSEPHINE A. MAYER"
 Miss Maher began teaching here in September, 1878, and she has taught hundreds of adults here, their parents and their children. A dramatic silence followed the reading of the letter and was broken by laudatory comments from various members of the board.
 Miss Maher was stricken i'll after the recent death of her nephew, Joseph Martin, well known local merchant.

MONTGOMERY IN
 CITY SUCKER
Palace Picture Is Tale of COnnecticut's
 Farms

The attraction at Polls for the first four days of the coming week Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday is Hide Out, the tale of happy-go-lucky post-repeaI rack eteer who believed that he had everything one could wish for in life-Yhoney without working for it, romance and pleasure-and who comes to his senses after he has been driven from New York, only to find real love and happiness in the quiet comfort of a Connecticut farm. The locale of the picture is around New Haven, in fact Mill ford.
 To those who enjoyed "It Hap pened One Night" and This Man" the management of Polls promises another picture of the same sort, and that will please all.
 "TIide- Out" is crammed with ex- citement and the glamour that is associated with the Big Town, and then you have the purity and sim- pie existence of the small town in comparison.
 As the playboy, Montgomery has an ideal made-to-me easure role. Re- luctantly he is compelled to find a country hide-out to escape arrest and to recover from a bullet wound, but, he soon becomes en- tranced with the country when he meets Maureen O'Sullivan, who is cast in the role of thea-farmer's daughter.
 Another star and favorite. who is prominently cast in this picture is Edward Arnold, who will be re- membered for his sterling work in Sadie Mckee" in which he played Joan Crawford's philander- ing husband. .,.
 On the same program there will be also Americas newest sweet heart Shirley Temple in Whats To Do", and selected shorts.

comparatively short time. The women had appeared before the board last May but did not secure definite action.
 Supt Chittenden submitted a re- port of enrolment thus far in the grammar schools and the high schol. It showed the following fig ures Salem, 50S; Central avenue, FAC; Rubber avenue, 1858; Beebe street, S3; Oak street, 136; Hop Brook, 229; Prospect street, PAT; Millville, SS; Pond Hill, 22; Grove side, 63. This was a total of 1,725 for the grammar school.
 There was an enrolment yester- day in the nigh school of SIS, an increase of over the first day and an increase of over the same day last year. However, there was a decrease of 32 over last year in the elementary school enrolment.
 There were 251 freshmen enroll ed, 240 sophomores, 1S3 juniors, and 133 seniors. Eleven post grad uates have also registered. The to- tai pupils including both form of schools are 2,543. This represents a net decrease of 80 from last years figures at the same time.
 Supt Chittenden said seventh grade in Central avenue and seventh and eighth grades in Salem are overcrowded, with sixth grade in Salem being very we'll filled. He said the only solution is granting him authority to transfer some pu- pills from these grades to other schools. There are some who live on North Main street or Curtiss street who have gone to these grades.
