tration of ex-Mayor Martin sculIy. Of late the elevator has not boen working properly, hence the de- cislon to protect the municipaiity against suits in the event ef Q serious accident.
 In New Britain the elevator fell three stories after three of the leading officials of the city had allghted. Had they been on it is possible that they would have been undoubtedly injured.
 Public Safety Regarded
 "Wc are not interested in the safety of city employees using the elevator system in the City Hall, alone,' said Secretary Kelly. 'Hun- dreds of residents of Waterbury utilize the elevator also. We do not want Co see anyone injured and for this reason have decided to close down the system until . study is mado tending towards re. pairs or entirely new equipment"

 "This year twenty students took the Latin prize examination. The papers showed marked proficiency and 1t K interesting to know that we still have pupils who are ablo to handle the study as well ns In the past.
 "The colleges all desire students who have had Latin training because the classical student gen. oraliy succeeds In his college work. English, mathematics, science. mod ern languages, Latin and history arc solid foundation upon which to establish tho advanced courses which tho colleges offer.
 Crosby high schools long list of honor students in different col- lcgcs proves that our course of study k still meeting the demands made upon it."

The great tragedy of drownngs that in most

rance of what to do after the accident has occurred
capsizes Its ncstricken occupants finding it

fooshy leave it and strike out for the distant shore Some
times they reach it, more frequently they don't
Such the type of drowning which recorded almost daily
An accident which should be the rares commone all be-

pete submerged will keep several persons aoa indefinitely
if they but lie quietly in the water alongside and hold lightly
to the gunwae
Many tragedies could be avoided this very month canoe
would take the trouble to famaze themselves with funda
mental rules of water safety.
The same holds true for fishing, sailing and swimming
How can wading fisherman avoid stepping off

cape underwater injuries? After upsets
swimmer save himself unaided and make his way shore
Every boatsman canoet and swimmer should know the an
Every parent should make certain his child has thorough
knowledge Of water safety.
Only when fathers and mothers accept this responsibility and
vacation themselves become familiar with the few rules

OF summer drownings be reduced.
