The Hospital Drive made good
progress over the week-end. and re-
turns up to press time today brought
the total well over the $34,000 mark.
noon and this evening, and the list
of additional subscribers in tomor-
row's paper is expected to be a long
cne.
The amount received today is still
far 1mm the 880.000 goal. and those
who have not yet given their contri-
butions are urged to give more than
they did in title last Hospital Drive
in 1921.
Drive Ends Sept. 25.
It has been noted with apprecia-
tion that most local residents whose
subscriptions have already come in
are for greatly increased amounts, as
compared with the 1921 gures. It is
pointed out that it is well that this
is so, as the amount of this Drive is
nearly twice that raised four years
ago, and to be successful there must
be larger donations.
A meeting of the captains was
held this noon at Kiwanian Oscar F.
Schultz’ dining room on Main street.
and each captain reported the pro.
grass of his team to date.
All workers are urged to cover

PAUL BARTLETT,
THE 'SCULI’TOR,
DIES IN PARIS
_W a s Born in New
Havana—One of His
Works in Metropoli-
tan Museum
PARIS. Sept. 21.—-—(AP). Paul
Wayland Bartlett. the American
sculptor, died here yesterday. rile
death was due to septicaemia, con-
tracted from a slight injury he re-
ceived while fishing in the Forest of
Ardennes.
Paul Wayland Bartlett was one
of the bra-Jest sculptors ln‘ Ameri-
ca. He was born at New Haven
Conn. in 1865. One .of his works
"The Bear Tamer." is now in tho
Metropolitan-m at New”"!ork.
Six statues on the front of the New
York Public library are his handi-
work, as well as the equestrian stat-
ure of Lafayette in the square of the
Louvre, Paris—a gift to France
from the school children of the
United States—and the statue of
General Joseph Warren in Boston.
Mr. Bartlett. who was educated in
the public schools of New Haven
and Boston, began sculpture when
a boy‘ under the instruction of Fre-
miet. When he was 14 years old he
exhibited in salon a bust‘ of his
grandmother. and in 1880 entered
the Ecole Des Beaux arts where he
became a pupil of Cavelier. In mi
he received praise at salon for the
group. Metropolitan Museum of Art
at New York). At the Paris exposi-
tion in 1900 he represented the Uni—
ted States 'on the International
Jury of Awards for sculpture.
He was made a Chevalier of the
Legion of Honor of France in 1885.
Mr. Bartlett is represented at the
Boston Museum, Philadelphia Acn~
demy of Design, Chicago Art In-
stitute. Luxembourg Gallery. Paris;
and Museum of Decorative Art,
Paris.

Members of Board Will

.It is anticipated that the Norwalk

joker and all. at their special meet-
ing to consider the matter, tomor-
row night. .
While members of the Board ad-
mIt that their judgment will lie
largely influenced by the survey re-
port of the State Education authori.
iiel. now in the process of being
drawn up. there is no doubt that
they will recommend the issuance of
the bond at this. or atrsome future
meeting.
As the matter stands, Norwalk
needs money for the primary echools.
but the bill as passed limits the use
ham mmmm or not:
tions to the High School. " That the
High School does need some ex-
tension is the belief of most of the
members of the Board, and it has
been their intention to use some of
the money for such work.
It is therefore probable that the
Board will: recommend a favorable
vote of the people of Norwalk when
the bill comes before them at elec-
tion. But they will probably issue
some statement that they will use
but half—possibly only $90,000—-of
the 8200.000 issue.
One member of the Board said:
“Because we can spend 3200.000
does not mean that we will do so.
It would be foolish to spend that
amount on the High School alone
although the money is limited to
that purpose. I think. though. that
we should make the necessary addi-
tions to the High School. and turn
back the balance of the money."

The move to erect a synagogue in
the First District for Norwalk Jewry
received fresh impetus when it was
announced this morning that local
Jews had contribiited $930 to start
the campaign.
For some time past the Jews of
the uptown section have had diffi-
culty attending their religious serv-
ices. Thc orthodox using no convey-
ance on the Sabbath, they and their
children have had to walk long dis-
tances to attend the Concord Street
Synagogue.
Some services have been held in
the loft above the Radiator Works
of Max Newbauer on Main street,
and the largest gatherings ever
known.mct there during the recent
observances of Rosh Hashonah, the
Jewish New Year.
The funds were raised at these
services and the committee plans to
build somewhere oh Mott avenue.
The Sisterhood is planning a house-
to-house canvass for the fund. and
will also hold a party in the New-
bauer place about October 16.
The committee in charge is: H.
