Moore, mem- bers of the school board, made the annual inspections of the local schools yesterday afternoon. The trip was made in Mr. Dows’ automobile. The East Berlin school, the South school, the Blue Hills school, the Kensington Gral r school and the old Ledge school, which has been closed for about ' eight years, were visited. At the East Berlin school the walls were found +to have leaks, which greatly weakened them. These will be repaired immedtately, a€ the dan- ger will’become more serious.as time wears on. The foundation will be strengthened with cement. | It is the plan of the school board to bring this 'before the taxpayers and have tpe condition remedied this summer. The board expressed keen gratifi- cation at the conditions which existed around the Kensington Grammar school. Through the efforts of the teachers and a few generous per- sons, Norway maples were recently planted about the grounds, greatly adding to the surroundings. At the Blue Hills school several minor repairs will have to be made, such as installing new locks, repair- ing the pump and fixing the fence. The walls also are badly in need of kalsomining. Soliciting Committee Chosen. Plans for( raising money to defray the expenses incurred by the lights extending from the depot to the' American Paper Goods factory were discussed at a public meeting held last evening in the Kensington library. A committee consisting of James J. g:tzllmons, Tax Collector Charles F. wis, Miss Adele Bassett'.and Charles B. Wgight were chosen to so- leit subscriptfons. It -is probable that an entertani- ment will be given in the near future, the proceeds going to help pay for the lights. A report of the progress made by the committee will be given at the next meeting to be held, Friday even- ing, June 25, at 8 o'clock, at the library. ' Local Girl Wins Prize.

Suffering from lock jaw, with but little chance for recovery, William, the twelve-years-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Dennic C. Crowley of Crown | street is at St. Francis hospital, where | found that tetanus ' had developed | from a wound in his foot. The boy is suffering considerable pain and the disease has developed to such an ex- tent that there is but little hope for him. i The boy cot a splinter of weod in his foat a week ago when he fell| from a horse which he was riding | at the Dexter farm in Mountain View. The wound was not regarded as dan- gerous and while ordinary precautions were taken to avoeid infection it was not thought that anything serious would d@velop from it. ' The little fellow attended sessions of his class in)the Grammar school on Monday and Tuesday, but stayed home thg following day on account of the pain’in his foot. He received medical attendance the next day and | even then it was thought that the cut would heal properly. His jaws be- came ‘set yesterday and Dr. J. N. was called. The physician im- mediately diagnosed his ailment as te- tanus and ordered his removal to the | hospital. At that institution the surgeons were not inclined to hold out much hope for him. Young Crowley is a bright little fellow apdeis exceedingly popular with his schoolmates. He has four sisters and two brothers. Expect Good Report. Strict economy practised by the se- lectmen during the year'will undoubt. edly show results satisfactory to the taxpayers when the annual report of the town officials is presented in Aug- | ust. While there are nearly cight | weeks before the fiscal vear closes, | the books show that the town af- fairs have been managed in econo- mical fashion during Selectman John- son’s administration and it is prob- able that instead of the usual deficit there will be a balance on hand when the next year begins. In nearly all departments, the town building and school excepted, it is be- lieved the reports will show the ex- penses ta be less than last year's. Or- ders have already been drawn by the selectmen for about $27,000, nearly half of which represents money bor. rowed béfore taxes began coming in. This is not a large amount and if the expenditures during the next two months are in propertion the town's finances will be in good shape on August 15, the closing of the fiscal year. The cost of keeping up highways is expected to show a big falling off. Last year tht selectmen spent over 5,000 on the streets while to date the expenses of this department show but $2,250. This includes the road built in Westwood bark several weeks agp. The fire department up to this time has cost less than one-half the amount expended last year. Even the poor account should not show much of an increase, if any. During the winter the demand on the selectmen for contributions to the poor and needy of the town were heavy, but by careful management Selectman Johnson managed to keep the bills from accumulating as fast as might be expected. Plainville has given about $2,500 to charity during the past ten months, This amount represents the expense of keeping town charges in hospitals and other institutions in addition to. what was paid out for rent, food and clothing for people in want. Last year the poor account totalled $3,347.91 and it is not likely that this will' be equalled this year. g That there will be'a substantial in- crease in the town building account is admitted, the selectman having made extensive repairs in the Town hall during the past few mnths. They are still spending large amounts in getting the hall in shape. For years the building was allowed to depreciate steadily and as a result it cost a great deal fo get it in proper condition this year. 4 With a materially increased grand list, the receipts from taxes for - the year will no doubt be the largest in the history of the town and at this time everything indicates. that . the reports at the close of the year will show the financial condition to be good. Flag Pole Painted. John 8. Larson finished a hazardous task this morning when'he completed the work of painting ‘the flag pole on the town building. . Mr. Larson had the contract for painting the hall and to make the job complete in ever particular he decided to -treat the flag staff to new degorations. The ‘pole has been on the bujlding for about a quarter of a century and while it shows no sign of decay it ig admittedly rather weak., The painter taok the risk, however, and managed to rig up pulleys to get him to the top. 7 Sunday in the Churches. - Advent Christlan—at the Adveat Christian church, Sunday will - he given up to the interests of the chil | Bradley dren. .

Local firemen are making arrange- ments for a field day to be held here in August, date to be selected later, | Plans for the affair have not matured sufficiently to give any indication of the extent of it but the fire- men hope to make it » day of enjoy- ment at Jeast. A few years ago the firemen gave a fleld day program and 1t is still re- membered by local people. It was one of the most successful affairs ever beld ‘in Plainville. It attracted crowds from all over ine state and | the Hose company won ‘much praise for the excellent manner in which they looked after the v:sitors. The field day now under considera- tiecn will probably be on a scale not | so extensive. The ‘“‘smoke eaters’ in reighboring towns will be asked to participate, however, and there will be a parade and athletic events to en- | tertain the townspeople. Will Call for Bids. The board of selectmen at its meet- ing last night gave cunsideration to the matter of making additional | changes and improvements in the | town building. The members are seriously considering the plan of hav- | ing a metal ceiling to substitute for | the plaster now serving in the hall| and they will call for bids in all prob- | | ability during the next rew days. The plaster on the celling |is loose that it has fallen off in chunks and there is danger of people being hurt at dances or cther entertain- ments on account of its condition. Mason-Walsh. A very pretty and up-to-date en- gagement party was given last even- ing by Miss Isabelle Foster, at the home of her sister, Mrs, Harry Cooke, 230 High street, Bristol, announceing the engagement of Miss Gertrude Walsh of Plainville, to Clarence A. Mason of Farmington. A whist contest which served as a starter for the evening's entertain- ment; resulted in several useful and attractive - gifts being awarded the winners. At thg delightful supper which was served, place-cards con- sisting of two hearts neatly enterlaced with ribbon, formed the bass for gen- eral comment, while the girls’ places, being designated by streamers of red ribbon having attached tiny satin bags, in each of which an engagement ring was concealed, confirmed the gtory. An enlivening program fol- low, being carried out in skillful and uniqué Yorm, providing unending mer- rimént for the Young couples present. ~Miss Feoster'proved a most charming hostess, Brief Items, The Ideal Whist ciub will give an inyitation whist in Grange hall Tues- day afternoon, beginning at 2:30 o’clock. The committee mn charge of the arrangements has arranged for thirty tables. Refreshments will be served. Many from here went to Southing. ton today to witness the parade and other events held in connection with the annual fleld day or the C. T. A. . Superintendent Beardsley of the Connecticut company had men here today to change the location of the signal light at the center. This was done at the suggestion of the select- men, who want the trolley cars to stop at the corner of Whiting, street instead of tthe center of the square. Under conditions now existing people alighting from trolley cars are in danger from autos as they have .to walk a considerable distance before reaching the street. It 1s thought that the change will minimize the danger of accidents, FOR SALE—Plants and cut flowers. Red Geraniums $1.00 per dozen. Pansy, Asters and-many others. J. L.
