Don't you see, honey, that Tn

Motor Patrolman Joseph Petti' this afternoon went to the home of Mrs Mary Bernier, 169 Woof street, to tell the woman that he, car had been almost totally de. nolished in crash at Great Bar rington, Mass, today.
 "There must be some mistake the woman smiled, flor my car is still out in the garage. Here are the keys"
 Lets take a look" said the po- liceman, and the two of them went to the garage. Sure enough, the door was locked. But then look inside shattered Mrs Bernier's con fidence. Thieves had broken in through the rear partition and driven away with the car.
 Convinced by this time that po- lice were right in telling her that her car was wrecked, Mrs Bernier later this afternoon was attempt ing to get in contact with authori- ties of Great Harrington, just oyer the state line, in an effort to find if enough was left of her ear to warrant bringing it back to Wat erbury.
 Local police were informed O: the wrecking of the car by the Canaan state police barracks, at which time Motor Patrolman. Pet tit was sent to Mrs Bernier's home. The theft of her car was the. result of one of a series of four garage breaks, three of them qnsuccess- ul. along Rose and Wood streets last night.

 Schools will close December 21 and will reopen Monday. the S1st, New Years day being a holiday, many of the teachers feel that the extra day intervening should also be included on the vacation sched- ule.
 They point out that this practice is usually followed in schools throughout the state when the holiday falls on Monday or Tues day. It was reliably reported to- day that a petition requesting the additional day would be presented to the board and that the matter would also be brought to the at. tention of the Waterbury Teachers association. .tl
