is better than is found in most lib-
raries. but the same cannot be said of
the fiction which is by no means
complete or up to date. While the
children's department is s. blot upon
the city's escutcheon. The mere hand-
ful of books here for the swarm of
children who trudge in' day after day.
only to go away disappointed. is an
evil which ,should be remedied. The
demand is here but the supply is not.

Most cities determine the sperprir
tion for their libraries at the rate of
from 75 cents to 81 per capita while
Norwaik computes her's on an average
of 35 cents per capita.

The average man and woman likes
fiction but where may they obtain it.
if their library is allowed to purchase
only 22 books a month? And this
number must include reference books
which are very expensive. supplemen-
tary books for the high and grammar
school students. fiction and non-fiction
for both the adult and juvenile de-
partments. Some one must
slighted and the adult and Juvenile
fiction are the ones in this case. The
reference and ' supplementary school
books must be on hand else the
school board will register a com-
plaint. so the librarians find no other
course open to them.

A short time ago the library ssso-
elation in despair ovsr the stats of

The public retuses to concern it-
self about what the Board of Estlo
mate should attend to. They contend
that. if an organisation does not roo
celve a sufficient appropriation that
it is up to them to put s petition for
more. This the libraryin tends to do
and it is hoped that the Board of Ba
tlmate will see fit to award them at

they have struggled on for years on
a more pittance but the growth of the
city and the revived interest in read-
ing makes it imperative that the

HAT Sl'l’llA'llON
IN THIS CITY

Workers Seems Agreeable
to Manufacturers.

LOCAL MEN MEET

Harmonious Gathering in
Moose Home Yesterday—
Scale Ready for Signing.

"There will no no trouble between
the union batters of the city and the
hat manufacturers" was the statement
made by Secretary Royal 1.. Raymond
of the local Hatters' union this morn-
ng.

A meeting of the Hatters' local was
held yesterday afternoon at the Moose
home. at which time the new bill of
prices asked for by the hatters was
taken up.

An agreement was reached between
the batters and the manufacturers and
it is thought that the new bill of pric-
es trill be signed in the near future.
The meeting was harmonious from
start to finish.

HE’S NOW GOING
AFTER FOXES

Express Driver Outruns
Fox Hound That Escapes
from Wagon.

q—W. ‘

Didsou ever run a race with s for
hound? This the question that a driver
for the American Express Company of
this city is asking his friends to
day.

The driver when he started from the
local express office at the South Nor-
waik railroad station yesterday after-
noon had on the load a. long limbed
fox hound consigned to Edward H.
Patterson of Winfield street. He made
a number’ of deliveries enroute to the
Winfield street address and stopped at
the store of M. D. Madey on East
avenue to leave a package.

\Vhile the driver was in the store,
Mr. Foxhound became a little bit un-
easy over the prospects of going into
a strange home. and in some manner
managed to break out of the crate
and Just as the drives came out of the
store Jumped out of the truck and
started for the East Norwslk rail.
road station. maybe with the idea. of
getting a train back to his home town.

The driver started after him and
when the dog saw this he let out an-
other notch of speed and by the time
the driver and the dog rounded the
corner leading from East avenue to
the railroad station. they were both
hitting on “high." Down through the
East Norwalk railroad yard. across
railroad tracks and around box cars
that were standing on the siding.
went the chased and thee hsser. Try
as he would the dog could not. shake
the driver. and it is thought that eh

 

 

to catch his breath. »

When he stopped the driver cor-
nered him and led him back to the
truck and taking the crate in one
band and leading the dog with the
other delivered him to. his owner.
Since the driver can outrun a fox-
tnound he intends to take a day off

a period often years.

This was the second-meeting held in
the new home'and was called to draw
up plans for fixing over and furnishing
the hall. Vlhlle no definite plans were
formulated yesterday. it is the inten-
tion of the chapter to convert this his-
torical old building. redolent with
memories .of the deeds of their sturdy
forefathers litto just an liveable a. place
as it was when the brave pathfinders
gathered there.

This old land-mark. which was built
in 1639. is, just at the moment. rather
a bleak looking room. It is long and
narrow. and the walls of white are un-
adorned save for the webs of enter-'
prising spiders. The D. A. R. will build
a partition in the room.

‘ Yesterday's gathering was delighted
at the prospect of putting their shoul-
der to the wheel and they promise to
force the walls. so long silent to again
echo with laughter. They are plan-
11ng to hold many social: and parties.
