W. Buchanan. A. W. Buchanan, agent for the state board of education, comes to this city each weeks now on Thursday afternoons to grant employment certificates to children who are still of the legal age.

Ho is located in the city court room while here. Business in his department was not brisk this week as he only had one applicant. Mr. Buchanan's home is in Mansfield Canter and his distritc includes Norwich, Rockville, Willimantic and Stafford. These take four days in the week.

The other two days he gives to inspection and looking up special cases. An Enterprising Newspaper. The Norwich Bulletin, a splendid example of the progressive, clean, hustling, honest newspaper, announces that it is soon to install a new duplex rotary press of the latest model. capable of turning out thirty thousand papers per hour, folded and ready for delivery. This is evidence, gratifying evidence, of prosperity and a determination to keep abreast of the procession.

That veteran newspaperman, Chester Lord, for many years the directing force of the New York Sun, told the newspapermen gathered in Hartford Monday night what 4 newspaper should be. Well, in our opinion, The Bulletin meets his specifications nicely, and it is a satisfaction to know that its territory appreciates and sustains it. Norwich people may not be aware of it, but nevertheless it is a fact that their city is doing a number of things of very much interest to cne rest of the state. Up this way it is regarded as an enterprising community that has the courage to try out new ideas in politics, in government and in busi.ness. Its Merchants' week is something rather novel, around here, at any rate.

Norwich begins it on Saturday and everybody is hustling to make it a success. There will be many things to interest people and induce those outside the city to come in and take part in the fun and the purchasing opportunities. It strikes us that herein is a suggestion business men in other places might take and study to advantage. Anyhow, Norwich is going to get a lot of satisfaction out of it. The point is that The Bulletin is a decidedly live representative of a most interesting -Bristol Press.

Milk Producers Dissatisfied. Windham county milk producers for the Boston market very much dissatisfled at the price offered for the summer milk. Notwithstanding the was shown that it a cost almost 5 1-2 recent tests by Storrs college, where it cents to produce a quart of milk, the contractors have offered the following prices per 8 1-2 quart can: April 31 cents, May 25 cente, June 25 cents, July 31 cents, August 81 cents, September 31 cents. By this it will be seen that for May and June the producers will receive less than three cents per quart, and the outlying farmers must pay out of this two cents per can for transportation to some of the stations. The rest benches at the New London Union atation are being rearranged so as to provide more room and greater convenience.
