ED'VIN HALL0CK.
At the head of the old and rel able
hardware rirm of V. Hall'icU i C;o., is
ICdwin llalloel., one of the leading eit
i.ens and bu?incs men of the N.-iugntuck
Valley. He is a son of the late Z "p'iuri
iali Hallock, who tiured prominent y iij
the oarly afl'iirs of the town of l :rby
and who came here from Stony Biook,
L. I , in 1 S I f " , and engaged in the . liip
buildiug basitiess with his brother nca
the tlaru of the Ousatonic W titer Co.
lie al3o traces his antecedent? back to
the early settlement of Lung Isomti.
Peter Ilaliock, ono of the Vi I'i!
griui fathers, landed in New Haver,
in 1710, and afterwards located on tin
part of Long Island since know as Ha,'
iock'j Neck. The grandfather aim
great-grandfather of Edwin llailockalsr
served in the Revolution.
The subject of this sketch was born ii
Derby, August 10, 1840, and receiver
his education in the local public school.-.
He formed habits of industry and thrift,
and at 25 became a partner
with his brother, the late Franklin Hal
lock, In a large hardware firm of which
he Is now at the bead. Upon purchas
ing an interest in the business the firm's
name was changed from that of Downs, j
Sanford& Co., to F. Hallock & Co.,
under which name It has since been con
tinued. The business of the firm is
probably the second largest in the hard
ware line In the state, and the trade con
trolled embraces the territory foithin a
radius of several miles of Derby. Mr
Hallock Is known as one of the most re
liable of business men, and has never
sought nor accepted public office. His
large business connections make him
one of the most active of merchants,
and the large store in which he is inter
ested has shown the results of good
management. He Is a member of the
Derby and Sbelton Board of Trade and
Is ever alert to promote the interests of
his business and the locality in which he
resides.
F. W. HALLOCK.
One of the best known young business
men of this vicinity Is Frank William
Hallock, son of Franklin Hallock, who
was born In Derby, June 5, 1861. After
obtaining a practical education he be
came entered on the list of the manu
facturers of the town, carrying on quite

OCR PUBLIC SCHOOLS-
Supj-.-ing that school business, like
.ny other public busi.'ie, should be
(1 .-.tie en sound bu?ines? principles; what
would -orue of the eflccts be upon the
-oliool, of this towr. ? The total expense
of our schools, last year1 according to
school report, was ig.S.l.'JOl!in. The actu
al expense to the town was
.Sf!Ot,0.-2!. Of the bal
ance, $i..-r,l.r(0 was received from the
state and .()... "( waa received from the
town deposit fund.
Ti; ; m i.'p'y of the tax payer is levied
and set aput for a certain purpose; the
-i tte fund i : 1 1 be used only toward a
d: finite end; it is the duty of the Board
of rfyhool Visitors to administer the
school according to the laws of the
s ara.
I.-:t the interested citizen take a copy
of the !at report of our public schrsols,
if he cau li id one, and Ptudy It, and see
what he can learn from it. How was the
l.'id : sp-jnt? And whit were the re
sults? VVii-n lie has found our just what
was d mo with the school money, last
year, let him turn his attention to how
the schonis are being run this year.
Last June, when the appropriations
were inad, I suggested that in the ease
of certain districts which might be large
ly affected by the parochial schools, the
amount voted should be limited to the
first term of school.
The argument; which prevailed then
was that the Board had power to close
schools and so regulate that matter.
When the question came up later the ar
gument was that the teachers having
been hired for the year they could collect
their wages for the whole time and there
fore it would be of no me to close any
school, this year.
It is now a very interesting question
how this matter will work for next year?
Shall the hiring of the teacher settle the
matter of making the appropriations and
continuing the schools, which on sound
business principles oughtto be closed?
Or shall the Board reduce the'namber of
schools as provided by law and so regu
late the matter of appropriations?
Last term the school in the North Cen
ter district averaged a.little oyer 6. Make
it 7. The appropriation Is, $425. The
coat per capita for average attendence
was at the rate of 00.71 per year.
At the Middle school the average at
tendance wasless than eight. .Call it
eight and the cost per capita, the appro
priation being $125, is $53.11.
The two schools being less than a half

Through the courtesy of F. S. Bartraui
of New York we have received a copy of
the itinerary of his series of private and
select mid-summer vacation tours in
Europe, which will cover Belgium, Hol
land, England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales,
France, Germany, Saxony, Bohemia.
Bavaria, Austria and Switzerland. His
party will leave New York on July S, by
the American (tied Star) line. The par,
ty will sail from the American Line pier,
foot of Fulton street, on Wednesday, Jul .
S, at 12 o'clock noon, on the splendi,--steamship
11 Westernland," one of th
largest, staunchest and most populc
steamers of this famous line. Capt Wey
er, the commander, one of the most gt
nial of otlioers, and one of the most can
tui, watchful, competent and experiencci
of navigators, has made his home upr,,,
the billows for the past 25 years. He is
a personal friend of the organizer, wnr,
having crossed the ocean with him a num
ber of times, can assure those who may
join this party of a most cordial recep
tion and the gratification of every want
that pleasure or comfort may require dur
ing the voyage. The selection of thi
route insures against changes or disap
pointments in sailings, in the event of
any international complications which
may subject the steamers of other princ;
pal lines to government or transport ser
vice. The tours are more varied, or di
versied, thaa any heretofore, and have
been arranged upon the most elaborate
and comprehensive scale.
