WILL TEACH LOCAL HISTORY Events in Development of Berlin to Be Taught OChildren of Public Schools—Motherhood Club Meets— V. L. S. Arrangements. 4 Rev. Samuel A. Fiske of Berlin was elected president of the Centra] Con- gregational club at a brief session held in connection with the annual meeting which took place last even- ing in the Second Congregational church here. A. N. Lewis of New Britain, Rev. T. B. Powell of Meri- den and Joshua Belden of Newing- ton were appointed vice presidents. The secretary, Frederick Bullen of Plainville, and the treasurer, Worth- ing V. Snqw of Bristol, were re-elect- ed, and E. L. Wismer of Bristol and ‘Rev. Dr. G. W. C. Hill of New" Brit- ain were appointed to serve on the executive committee. A recommendation for the estab- lishment of a government employment dgency was the chief point brought out in an address by Rev. Henry A. Atkinson, social secretary of the na- tional council of the Congregational churches. His subject was “The Prob- lem of the Unemployed,” and the practicability of his remarks left no doubt in the minds of his many hear- ers as to his gualifications for speak- ing on this theme. ‘ The speaker went into details on many other great industrial problems, telling of the conditions in various parts of the United States and mak- ing several suggestions for improve- ment. i It is estimated that almost 200 peo- ple partook of the following menu, which was served by the Ladies’ Ald society: Salad Creamed Chicken Mashed Potatoes Jelly Rolls Coffee Ice Cream Cake Much credit js due the Misses Elizabeth Wilcox and Helen Rohm and the Mesdames Francis Deming, Frank L. Wileox, Walter Atwater, Myron Goodrich and Samuc| A. Fiske for the pains they took to niake the ‘supper a success. Land Sale. Lucia T. Newton of Plalnville is named as the grantor and Joel F. Selleck, Jr., of Bridgeport, as . the zrantee in a warrantee deed received by Town Clerk Francis H. Shaw yes- terday, the same recording the trans- der of a plece of property in the town, which aggregates twenty-two acreg and is bounded as follows, to wit: east by the highway known as New Britain road, west by land of Frederick L. Norton and the Henry Hooker estate and south by property now or formerly that of Willlam N. Norton and Frederick L. Norton, partly by each. * The above-described property is the same pargel that was derived by the grantor from the estate of Mary A. Upson, deceased, in accordance with the certificate of settlement of the Upson estate. Carl Carlson Buys Land. Another deed received by the town clerk records a sale of local property by Mary Campbell of Hartford to Carl L. Carlson of Berlin. All build- ings and improvements standing on sald property are also to be included in the transfer. ‘The boundaries are as follows: rorth and east by the highway; the south by land of Charles K. Griswold and by property of Daniel Webster or assigns, partly by each, and west by land of Daniel Webster or assigns same containing about sixteen acres. Among other personal property in- cluded in the deal are, one horse, two cows, one two-horse bus, one two- seated carriage, one single buggy, one double farm wagon, one bus, one single horse dump cart, one cut-away harrow, three plows, one wheel bar- row, some harness and articles per- taining to the milk business. E. R. Jones Purchases House. The deal for the purchase of the house on Worthington ridge, owned for many years by John McKay of Berlin and Jennie Scrivener of Nor- wich, by Edward R. Jones of Berlin, has now been consummated. According to the wording on the Geed, Mr. Jones is to receive the en- tire interest in and to a certain piece of land in Berlin with all buildings standing thereon, same being bounded on the north by land of Harriet L. Fdwards, heirs or assigns; east by the highway (Worthington ridge) and land of Mary ID. Hubbard, heirs or as- signs; south by property of the latter and the highway, partly by each and on the west by land of Elizabeth P. ‘Wilcox. The property in question was con- veyed by Henry N. Galpin to Emily N. | Webster by deed dated August 9, 1886. Local Interest in Election. Berlin shared some of the excite- ment which prevailed in New Britain vesterday during and after the big election which terminated in an over- whelming victory for George A. Quig. ley, republican nominee for mayor, and for the entire republican party. Berlin is a republican town, and sen- timent was generally in favor of the victorious candidate, although many words of commendation for Mayor Joseph M. Halloran were heard about town today. Not a few of the 1,400 or more telephone calls received at the Herald office last ‘night were from local people and once again today they were libegal in their praise for the excellent Herald service. For a short time last evening some of the trolley cars ran a little behini time owing to the fact that they were blocked by the big republican parade o1 the principal streets of the Hard- ware city. Young Couple to Marry, A marriage license was issued yester- day afternoon to Tony Semeone, and | Miss Ellzabeth Santimero, both nine- | teen years of age and residents of this town, Owing to the fact that both the ap- plicantg were under the marriageable age, as determined by the state law, it was necessary for their guardians | to_consent to their marriage. The | parents of both the groom-to-be and | the bride-to-be reside in Italy, so the | young lady’'s brother was obliged to sign as her guardian as was the uncle of the prospective benedict. Motherhood .Club Meets. A meeting of the Motherhood club of the Berlin Congregational church was held this afternoon with Mrs. E. E. Nourse of Worthington ridge. The subject for discussion was “The Effect of Clothes on Manners and Morals,” and the Mesdames Nourse, Aspinwall and Honiss had charge of the pro- gram. V. L. S. Making Arrangements. The entertainment committee of the Village Improvement soclety is sched- uled to hold a meeting this evening for the purpose of completing plans for a new series of socials to be given 'during the coming spring months, At present committee members have under consideration the holding of an icé cream social some evening next week. They expect also to have members of the Kensington Dramatic club make a second presentation of “The Colonel's Maid” at Athletic hall late next month. This three-act comedy, as has been stated in the Herald previously, is to be glven in Foresters’ hall on Wednesday even- ing, May 6. Local History in Public Schools. A history of the town of Berlin, which has been written by the teach- ers of all the schools, was adopted at a teachers’ meeting held yesterday afternoon, and it wag recommended that it be taught to the pupils of the local schools. Copies of the history will be hecto- graphed at once and the children will be given their first lessons in a very short time, Information embodied in the new chronicle was obtained from various sources, largely, however, through books in the Peck Memorial library. Berlin has a very interesting his- tory, which should prove quite in- structive to the descendants of those who guided the town through its many crises. Brief Mention. Postmaster Henry ‘L. Porter was in Meriden today, where he attended an encampment of the G. A. R. His as- sistant, Miss Olive Shaw, had charge of the post office. Clarence L.

Infant Son of Mr. and Mrs. James Simpson Dead—Home From Hospi- tal—Elmore Clark for Toastmaster ~——Court Hears of Collision. That the plans for a sewage system, although not as yet accepted by the voters, may cause an indefinite post- ponement of the laying of permanent pavement on East Main street which had been proposed for this spring by the highway commissioner and the Connecticut company is the opinion of leading citizens who believe that the pessibilities of getting the improve- ment this year are very remote. Commissioner Bennett has advised Selectman Johnson that he uroposed to pave the street from Central square te Pine street corner this summer, a part of the expense to be borne by the Connecticut company. The trolley people had promisedsto put perma- nent pavement on Central Square and to extend the macadam from curb to curb on East Main St. as a concession for the privilege of ‘laying double tracks which was granted by the se- lectmen & year ago. Instead of making an extension of the macadam, Commissioner Bennett believed he could get the company to | enter into an arrangement for paying a part of the cost of laying permanent pavement on the street and he recent- ly notified the selectman that an agreement had been reached although no decision had been made as to what kind of material would be used. It is the policy of the highway ccmmissioner to avoid making any extensive street improvements where there is a possibility of its being dis- turbed and it is now considered un- likely that he will be in favor of lay- ing permanent pavement on any high- way included in the sewer area until the necessary pipe is lald or tha voters decide to reject the proposition. The matter may be definitely de- cided in the near future, depending on the action of the officers in again calling the voters together to get con- sideration of resolutions towards au- thorizing the district committee to award contracts and make other necessary arrangemonts. The paving of East Main street is an improvement that is greatly to be desired and there is a growing belief that something should be done to give the highway commissioner an idea as to whether it would be advisable to do the work this summer. Simpson Infant Dead. Dwight Horace, the ten-weeks-old son of Mr, and Mrs. James Simpson of Washington street, dled this morning from intestinal trouble. The child had been in a critical condition for the past few days. The funeral will be held tomorrow afternoon at 2:30 from the Simpson home and on account of the illness ot Mrs. Simpson, will be private. Rev. R, H. Burton will conduct the ser- vices and the burial will be in West cemetery. : Home From Hospital. Mrs. James J. Murphy of Whiting street, returned home today from the Hartford hospital where she had been a patient for the past two weeks. Mrs. Murphy underwent an operation from which she has practically re« covered. Her many friends will be pleased to hear of the improvement in her condition. Elmore Clark For Toastmaster, N. Elmore Clark has been selected to preside at the banquet of the Bus- iness and Improvement association on April 30. Mr. Clark has been an active member of the assoclation since it was started and has served as a member of several of the com- mittees which have arranged for the annual banquets. President Gwilllm expects to get a definite answer before the end of the week from Congressman DANDRUFFY HEADS BECOME HAIRLESS Scalp Dries—Chokes Out the Hair And Prevents Its Growth. If you want plenty of thick, beau- tiful, glossy, silky halr, do by all means get rid of dandruff, for it will starve your hair and ruin it if you don't. It doesn't do much good to try to brush or wash it out. The only sure way to get rid of dandruff is to dis- solve it. then you destroy it entirely. To do this, get about four ounces of ordinary liquld arvon; apply it at night when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips. By morning, most if not all, of your dandruft will be gone, and three or four more applications will completely dissolve and entirely destroy, every single sign and trace of it. You will find, too, that all itching and digging of the scalp will stop, and your halr will be silky, fluffy, Jus- trous, soft and look and feel a hun- dred times better. You can get liguid arvon at any drug store. It Is Inex- pensive and four ounces is all you will need, no matter how much dan- druff you have. This simple remedy never falls, MOTHER ! THE CHILD IS COSTIVE, BILIOUS Don't Hesitate! A Laxative Is Neces- sary If Tongue Is Coated, Breath Bad or Stomach Sour. Give “California Syrup of Figs” at once—a teaspoonful today often saves a sick child tomorrow. If your little one 1is out-of-sorts, half-sick, isn't resting, eating and acting naturally—look, Mother! see if tongue is coated. This is a sure sign that it's little stomach, Iliver and bowels are clogged with waste. When cross, irritable, feverish, stomach sour, breath bad or has stomach-ache, dlar- thoea, sore throat, full of cold, give a teaspoonful of ‘“California Syrup of | Figs,” and in a few hours all the constipated poison, undigested food and sour bile gently moves out of its little bowels without griping, and you bave a well, playful child again. Mothers can rest easy after giving this harmless “fruit laxative” because | it never fails to cleanse the little one's | liver and bowels and sweeten the stomach and they dearly love its!' pleasant taste.

Hair that loses its color and lustre, or when it fades, turns gray, dull and lifeless, is caused by a lack of sul- phur in the hair. Our grandmother made up a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to keep her locks dark and beautiful, and thousands of women and men who value that even color, that beautiful dark shade of hair which is so attractive. use only this old-time recipe. Nowadays we get this famous mix- ture by asking at any drug store for a 60 cent bottle of “Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy,” which darkens the hair so naturally, so evenly, that nobody can possibly tell it has been applied. Besides, it takes oftf dandruff, stops scalp itching and fallirg hair. You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. By morning the gray hair disappears; but what delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur is that besides beauti- fully darkening the hair after a few applications, it also brings back the gloss and lustre and gives it an ap- pearance of abundance. who has been invited to be the guest of honor. Hears of Auto Accident. Claiming that a chauffeur for the defendant was driving on the wrong side of the road, Dr. J, Joseph Wois- sard of Bristol today asked Judge E. L. Smith and a jury in the court of common pleas to award him damages of $1,000 against Leonardo Suzio of Meriden. The suit is a sequel to an auto accident which occurred on the Farmington road in Plainville on Sep- tember 30, 1912. The taking of tes- timony required the attention of the court all day. On the day of the accident six Me; iden school teachers hired Suzio’s auto and were being driven to Farm- ington when the machine which they occupied collided with Dr. Wolssard’s car which was going in an opposite direction. While none of the people concerned were hurt both autos were badly damaged. All the teachers were in court to- day as witnesses for the defendant, who brought in a counter claim of $600 against the Bristol physiclan on the grounds that the collision was the result of his negligence. Suzio’s chauffeur and the teachers told the court that the Wolssard auto skidded in making the curve causing the two machines to come together. Judge Malone represented the plaintiff and Attorney P. T. O'Brien of Meriden appeared for Mr. Suzio. May Issue Warrants. .While the majority of personal tax delinquents who were notified to set- tle their accounts by April 15, now have in their possession receipts from Collector Hemingway, there are some who have neglected to make a payment and it is expected that war- rants will be issued for thelr arrest before the end of the week, They have until tonight to pay up to avoid appearing in court. Most of those upon whom notice was served are foreigners. The collector intends to turn over to a justice of the peace the names of those who have not pald their back taxes by tonight and they will be given an opportunity to explain the reasons for thelr delinquency ' in dourt. Expect Successful Carnival. Members of the Plainville baseball association are greatly encouraged over the interest taken in their ef- forts to organize a first class team to represent the town in the Far- mington Valley league and they ex- pect that the carnival to be held In the town hall on April 26 and 27 to raijse funds to give the club a fair start will be a good financial suc- cess. An entertainment will be given by local talent on the opening night and Bristol entertainers will furnish the program on Monday. The prospects for a fast team arc sald to be exceptionally.bright and baseball lovers are .enthusiastic over the outlook. Brief Items. Rev.
