 In short, Beetle and Bottle are going to have women partners. The first of Phil's new female stooges is Agnes Moorehead, known on Routes IT, 1, 87 and 9W as the worlds worst backseat driver. Phil decided that his band of voy- agers needed someone who would disregard road maps, insist on gun, ming up blind streets, who kn6w the wrong way of doing everything about the car, and who would in- h hsist on stopping at the most re- mote tourist cabins she could find. At once a universal cry went up for Agnes. Miss Moorehead will occupy the edge of the back seat and make life miserable for Baker with q voice that can cut through 0 cylinder head or rival the ho- neyed hum of the Hungarian nightingale.

SCHOOL BONDS net
SUBSTANTIAL SUM
City Benefits in Interest
Saving-Eight Bidders
For Big Issue

A net saving to the City of Wa
terbury OF $222,577.20 in interest
payments will be realized through
the sale of the $339,000 bond
issue completed at special meet
ing Of the board of aldermen last
night, it was reported to-day. Hal
sey, Stuart & Co and the r. F.
Griggs Co of this city were the
successful bidders among the eight
companies making bids for the
bonds.
The total interest charge on the
bonds over their II year life will
be $77,755. The successful bid
ders will pay a total premium of
1920. The rate of interest will
be 2% 20 on 100000 worth of
the bonds and 2 on the remainder.
The proceeds from the bonds
will be used to wipe out the mort
cages and notes, bearing six per
cent interest, on the school prop
critics taken into the inside dis
trict in the recent consolidation
of the outside districts. Under
the mortgage and note payments,
a total cost to the city would be
$300,332.20 in interest payments at
six per cent. The considerable
saving to the city can be seen in
the fact that under the bond in
terest payment the total cost will
be but $77,775.
