tling swan, especially, being; very
rare. ‘
Some of the interesting things:
that Mr. Smith told the cult; about.
snakes were:
Snakes belong to the faintly of
reptiles. which includes snakes. liz-
zards. and turtles. ’i'llc'lr mouths
expandsidewise, {is well as Opening
upward and downward as the
mouths of most. animals do. 'Illcre
is an extra bone imhe mouth that
makes them able to do this, so that
they can swallow large objects. as
toads. frogs. or, if the snake lb large
even rabbits.
It has been proven by putting a
thermometer in their months. that
snakes take on the temperature of
the air, or of whatever they lie on.
They are thus dormant: in “inter.
and the hotter the day the more ac-
tive they are.
In Connecticut, there are tll‘iieccn
known species, 3.de only two poison-
ous ones,—-tlle rattlesnake and the
copperliead.
There is very little known about
snakes, and few scientific works de-
voted to them. They are surround-
ed by superstition. myths, zincl folk-
lore. It is commonly believed that
they sting or bite with their itrked
tongues, but. these are really only
feelers or smellers. They bite with
fangs. which are. folded up in? the
roof of the mouth, and are pro ted
when the snake strikes. I‘his pro~
jecting of the fangs forces the pois-
on from the poison-sack and into
the object bitten, working the same
as a. hypodermic needle.
Some of the truths about snakes
are’ stranger than any of the strange
fiction that has been woven about
them. They swallow their young to
protect them. Some lay eggs, and
some bear living young. 'rhcy are
eanubaltstlc. eating each other. and
can live for a whole year without
eating at all. A snake runs on the
ends of his ribs. as it were, and can-
not crawl on anything smooth. such
as glass. In winter, many of them
den together. -

"There are about. 160 pupils in
East Norwalk and 60 or 70 in the

or across the bridge. *
Several Sites. ‘
“\Ve should put: the school where
it will be an added attraction in our
city. There are several sites of: the
avenue. that are better. There 'is
the Board site, with acres of land.
The Andrews site. with tw ud'one
half acres of land in the r of the
house, running to Fairflold Avenue.
The Lockwood and the Matthew's
property. The property will always
divide the city until it is taken over.
Any of these sites are stin-lor to
the hill site. and they are all on the
trolley line.
"I have heard a. great many say
that this is only a temporary ar-
rangement and that it is planned to
't
erect n. Junior High School in East
’orwalk in the near future. If the
population in East Norwalk should
double itself in'10 or 15 years, it
would not warrant the buildtngvof
such a school.
"We are paying a large srm.of
money for an old building on the
present site as the building will
bring x-edrulule, in it is takeifltdown
or moved. The cost. of grndirg will
run into thousands of dollars. We
should not commit ourselves to this
site. but should look around.
Mrs. Albert M. Fcchhelnicr stated
that she opposed to the location.
Although she had climbed the hill
herself to go to school, she did not
feel that it was the proper move to
make children climb Fralfield avo-
nue, during the winter months. with
the streets all ice and snow.
Her Children Climb.
Mrs. Alexander Runilm stated
that. she lived on Flax _ll road
and that she had sent ll |_,.'children
to both the Franklin and‘thc High
. schools and that they had climbed
boill up and down lilll. She said
further that her three, daughters
had never missed a day on account
of illness and that they had only
been out of school five days ill
nine years. She did not see anything
so very dearful about milling up
and down hill to go to heal.

that it didn't do them any good to
urtik that distance. He was against
them walking up the hill, as they
would have to leave home 24 minutes
earlier in the morning to get to
school on time. He stated that he
thought that there were many
Letter sites than the one selected.
In Favor of It.
Clarence A. Brown, former council-
man from the Second district. in
speaking in favor of the proposed.
site, said that“. he differed with the
statements of Judge Keogh and that
he did not see the difference be-
twewn making the children who
live up on the hill climb it. and the
children who didn't climb it. He
further stated that “'csi: avenue
would not be the proper site as it
is the coming business section and
that the Matthew's property was out
of the question. as it would cost too
much money to purchase it. He
thought that the school site should
be on: the trolley line on account of
the noise.
Judge Light then said:
"it is a. difficult matter to select a
site. There has always been a con-
troversy over every site that. was
selected for a. school in this city and
I suppose in other cities.
“I think that it is a. mistake to
place the school up on the hill from
the knowledge that I have at he 6.

should reserve their ener tea for

B. F. Andrews opJected to this
as he said they were not all through
speaking. Judge Light said that lie

finished. Mayor Robins said then
that he did not think it: wu‘prope’r

Mr. Andrews stated that he had

that the School Board had gone into
that. part of the question and that

been taken and that he thought the

then informed those present that he
had some picture slides of; the vari-
ous sites and a map that he would
flash on tho schcen.
Douglas Nash, chairman of the
Board of Education, in talking with
the slides said that the one Junior
High school would not. accommodate
pupils from all over the city and
that it. was planned to have three
Junior High. schools in the future.
If it were in one building he stated
it would take over a 30 room school
to accommodate the pupils.
He pointed out on the. map that
the central location would be at: the
flop of Clay street but that. the site
selected was somewhat. north and
east of that point as they could not
get in the actual center and could
not govsouth and west. He pointed
out the various spots from which
the pupils came as was marked on
the map.
Excludw East Nomlk.
As did Mr. Buchanan, he also ex-
'cludcd i; Norwalk as he said they
would ‘need a. new school there in
the near future and that the resi-
dents of that section should be look-
ing for a site. Views of the various
sites were. flashed on the screen.
Mr Nash said that he hoped that
if another site was selected, that. it
would be one that would not delay
the building program of the Board
of Education, the situation was be-
coming ‘serious and that: the school
must be erected as soon as possible:

Judge Keogh speaking for the
second time said:
"Thisjs the lirst time in all lll,\'
life. that l have ever ilcui'd of

thought that it “as always consid-
ered an asset.

“We should get close‘ to transpor-

Mayor Robins said that nearly all
of the children had to walk to

school and will noisy have trans—
portation in the sections they live in.
Judge ’Keogheaid‘tliat liegknew as
much about tho city "as the one
that just spoke."
Mayor Robins then called on Wil—

ated that he knew’ the problems
that. came up ln<the selection of the
sitennd‘ that. the committee had
gone over many locations and that
it. was diii‘lcultto find a suitable lo-
cation. .i-lo said that. the board was
one of the few in the state that had
not brought the outlying schools
into the center of the. city and ran
up large transportation bills and
that they must'liuvc a Junior High
school in East Norwalk. He told
how nine out of every ten pupils
walked to school.
Judge Light asked Mr. “'zlrd how
the Board site compared with the
Andrew's size and :r it was true
that the. committee would have pur-
chased it. if it. had been for sale.
r. Ward replied that there had
n no vote taken on the. matter
and that the Beard site was a. good
one.

Attroney Jesse T. Dunbar said:

district matter as they will be
ones that are served.
100,000 Population.
"In selecting the site, we looked
ahead to the time when the city’s
population would be near' 100,000
and decided that the city could not
build any further out into the water
and that it. must go over the hill.
The present site was selected as
what should be about. the center of
the Second district. W'e were afraid
thiit; we might decide wrong and took
into consideration all things before
we made the seibctiou. The Joint
Committee spent much' time on the
matter and the hill problem was tak—
en into consideration. Rome was
built on seven hills and lasted for
several centuries. -

Mrs. H. A. Bond stated that she
was interested in the transportation
of the children. and that she would
rather have her children go along
distance and have a. large playground

Councilman Riordan asked if
Judge Keogh meant the Beard prop-
erty on “Hist avenue or Garner
street, as he thought the \Vcst ave-
nue property was a good site. Judge
Keogh stated that he meant the
\Vt‘st avenue site.
Albert E. \i'ineliestcr said that. if
the school was built on “'est avenue
that more than half of the children
who live on the east side of \Vest.
avenue would lime to cross the trol-
ley tracks and that this was danger-
ous. He further stated that he
thought “'cst. avenue would be more
valuable for commercial purposes
in the. future.
William McMahon said that his lot
on West avenue had been mentioned
but that he could sell it. to much
more advantage than for a. school
site. He stated that e lot was not
too small for a. school to, but would
prefer not to sell it for that purpose.
He. recommended the Plait. property
across the street from the Baptist
church. and thought that this would
be an ideal site. as it was a mistake
to ask the children to walk up the
hill. Mr. McMahon told how he had
been informed that the school “on
going up on the hill regal-doles of
the outcome of'the’ meeting and said
that he hoped that this was not the
truth as the Council was the ser-
vants of the people and were there
to carry out their wishes. He stated
that the Plalt property could be
purchased for $15,000.
Attorney Richard Ireland, stated
that the meeting- shiuld have been
held two or three weeks ago and the
opinion of the people asked as to
the choice of a. site. Mr. Ireland
said that the reasons for not putting
the Junior High school on the ave—
nue were poor. andtlmt the lists;
est room in the High School had win-
dows facing on the street. and the
trolley cars did not bother the stu-
dents. In speaking of the children
crossing the street. Attorney Ireland
stated that they would have to
cross several streets and car tracks
to get to the new school site and
that they Would have to give a course
ill "AfricanrDodging," in order that
the children might get to hoot.
He told of horses having uble
getting off the hill in the winter
with calks on and asked how they
expected the childrento go up the
same hill under similar conditions.
John McMahon told of investiga-
ting the matter after it had been
brought to his attention. by several
people and that he had taken some
meagsurements. He said that in the
Fairfield Avenue site, there who,

He said that he understood that
there; would be a. beautiful building
on the Hipson site that was next to
the Platt property and that this
would be a. fine building to have next

of the advertising advantages to the
city in having the school on the

“I must confess bciiig‘a. mere wo-

wanted children to feel it a beauti—
ful home to study in away fpom
crowded city streets with plenty of
room outside to play volley ball or

trally located with our knowledge
of the present need and vision of

and the room for expansion in fu~
tore—and if such a location can be
found without spending thousands
of dollars blasting and leveling
plot which architects condemn as'
extravagant: {ind impossible. I fan-
cied our problem solved and so fa-
vored the Andrews location.
"According to opinions of experi—
enced and reliable architects and
builders. the difierence in salvage
from‘the buildings now on the
Plait and Andrews sites and tin!
evident expense of grading and lev-
eling up a. building site on the. for-

the Plait site to eight or ten them—

It: was voted at: the meeting of the
Common Council last evening to is-
sue the $350,000 in school bonds, and
to advertise for bids on the bonds.
The bonds are to be dated March
