Naugatuck, April 23-The Nau- gatuck Fuel company received the major part of the school coal con- tract award at a special meeting of the board of education yester. day afternoon. The Union City coal company submitted the low est bid for buckwheat coal and got the contract for this but the Naugatuck Fuel had lowest bids tn on bituminous, stove and egg coal, according to Supt. of Schools Harold l.. Chittenden.
 One of the features of the meet ing was the absence of reporters. None of the press was notified or the meeting and did not hear about it until after 1t was over. Chair man Charles F. Rodenbach told The Democrat today there was no deliberate intention to exclude he press but said an official had forgotten to notify the reporters.
 He explained that the meeting had been called rather hurriedly because members were told that if orders were not put in now, the coal might cost more later. There was just quorum present.
 The coal contract amounts to more than $6,500. It was awarded IS follows: Naugatuck Fuel Com ,,any: 90 tons of bituminous coal at $7.15 Q ton; 40 tons of stove coal at $1O.16 per ton less 20 8 .on discount. Union City coal company, 175 tons of buckwheat oal at 7.60 per ton less 10 a ton iscount. .
 These figures are approximate.
 As may be seen egg coal com- rises the major portion used. The Jids were sealed and were re- .cived from the three companies, the Fuel and Union City Coal firms and the Clark coal company. Last ;ear the Union City coal company lad the major portion of the con- ract, the superintendent said.
 No other action was taken at the cssion, Mir Chittenden said today. le explained that more coal was rdered this year than last because .l hard winter had drained con- siderably the bins in the various schools and they were rather low tt present, he said.
 Atty. John McDonough was one # the members present. The next meeting of the board of education, the regular May meeting sched- uled for May ?, wil be the last une Atty. McDonough will attend. Dr. Charles s. Kennedy Is the Democrat nominee for the board of education this year. The next session should mark what may be ,he end of 20 years of consecutive service rendered by Atty. McDon- ,ugh to the town as member of his committee.

 It will be recalled these two appropriation were contracted Under the Harris Whittemore.

LIQUOR VS.. GASOLINE

The sudden death Sunday even
ing of two young men from the
damsite area is another striking
example of the incompatibility Of
liquor and gasoline. They will not
mix with any degree of safety.
Statistics prove that eighty-five
|per cent of the fatalities from
automobile wrecks is caused directly
from inebriety to some degree.
One doesn't have to be "swacked to
the gills" or lulled into alcoholic I'M
consciousness in order to be unfit
to operate an automobile on the
public highway.
While our highways are as good
as can be found anywhere in the
United States, they are not built
for excessive speed. There nee
essarily many curves which cannot
be eliminated in the process of
road construction. Most Of the late
cars are capable of great speed,--
mny of the mbeing able to make as
high as ninety miles an hour. To
attempt to make sharp curve at
full speed, or even less, is to tempt
death. and this is being done every
day by carless and incompetent
drivers, and the result in premat-
ure death is appalling.
These two men. both under mid
die age, and both with families de-
peding upon them, are no differ
ent than thousands of athers in all
parts of the county. Perhaps they
were not disgustingly drunk, per-
haps they were not even mildly in
toxicated, but from all appearances
they had imbibed enough of the am
Der fluid to make them careless,
and carelessness while driving a
car on the public highway is mex
cussable.
While their sudden and premat-
ure death is regrettable, and while
their dependents have the sympathy
of all, their untimely death should.
serve as warning to others who
are inclined to drive with excess
i've speed, either while under the
influence of liquor at any other
time. Safety First" should be the
motto Of all car operators.

Origin of London

The few facts available indicate that
London first rose out Of Obscurity
early after the Roman occupation of
Britain, In the First century Of the
Christian era. Its geographical posi-
ton was the determining factor. A
British oppidum. or stronghold of the
Catuvellauni that became Roman Yer
ulam and is today st. Adams was
sheltered behind the Middlesex forest
when julius Caesar, having landed in
Kent in 81 r. c., made his raid Upon
that he marched, crossing the Thames
at some point that remains uncertain.
Caesar makes no mention of London,
the inference being that 1t did not
exist. In A. ID. Cunobelin or Gym
beline succeeded to the throne of the
confederated tribes In southern Brit
ain. Early he transferred his seat of
government to what became Roman
Camulodunum (COlchester). London's
site was well placed for the service of
both cities. Its emergence was due
to service as landing stage for Con-
tinental trade with Britain. Tacitus
refers to it as having been in A. ID. 81
a place much frequented by merchants.
The name Lcndonie not Roman but
Celtic, and the HDhans adopted it in
their own Lo2 MUM.
