The business methods of the Board
of School Visitors of the Town of
Norwalk In the matter of the purchas-
of text books and supplies and the pay-
lng for them was the principal boutI of
contention at the adjourned special
meeting held Inst night at the. assent-
bly'hall In Wall street. The matter
was brought before the meeting in a
resolution presented by Attorney .Iohn
J. Walsh and resulted in a long that us
sion, after which the resolution as pie
sented by Mr. Walsh was passed.
Chairman ' Bradley S. Keith called
the meeting to order shortly after 8
o‘clock with even a smaller number of
voters present than were in attendance
:1 week ago. ' The chairman announced
that the-first regular business to come
before thcnuecting was the laying of
the annual town tax. A. E. Austin im-
mediately took the floor and moved
that a seven mill tax be laid. This
was immediately seconded by William
H. Byln'gtou. It was put to vote with-
out any remarks and the resolution
w‘as‘" passed without a dissenting
voice. According to the estimate of
expenses for the year. as compiled by
the selectmen, s sevenImilI lax. with
other‘iacomes of the town included.
will raise the sum of $132,112.81. while
the expenses will foot up $1.18 891.
Mr. Keith read the second item in
the‘ call.: which was to make the .111-
nual appropriations for the support of
the public schools.
At this juncture Attorney Walsh prc.
seated this resolution:
Whereas The Board of School Visi-
tors has .by It majority vote refused
to purchase the text books and school
supplies m the schools of this town

visitors and that the bills for said
' books and supplies be passed upon by
said board at Its regular monthly
meeting; and that the bills of expense
so passed upon shall be published In
each of the papers published in this
tovm.
Chairman Keith ruled that the reso-
lution' was entirely out of order but
the decision of the chairman was no
pooled and the appeal sustained. In
explanation Mr Walsh said that he did
_no,t.want It to be understood that be

novelist’s pessimism probably in-
fluenced him to let his amiable wit and
very keen sense of humor have full
play. Certanlly Dr. Sykcs's clever and

kept his bearers In alripple of laugh—

terpiece. if a gloomy=and terrible one,
and that Hardy is best in his descrip-
tions of scenery and in a few of his
peasant scenes. His analysis of the
reason of Hardy’s failure was intel-
lectually convincing.
The course just finished has evident-
ly been in the highest degree satisfac-
tory to the ticket-holders. as almost
with one voice they ask for the recall
of the lecturer for another year. Cer-
tainly one anxious for the triumph of
the best in literature must be grateful
for the balance between good and bad

refreshing to hear one“ so entirely re-
