Grange To Have Fair. - Officers of the grange are making arrangements for a harvest fair to be given -in the Grange building on Pierce street early in the fall The plans have not masured sufficiently to permit an announcement of the dates or program but the heads of the or- ganization predict that the affair will be conducted on' a more elaborate scale than any previously held under grange auspices. At one time the harvest fair was an’ annual feature of the grange ac- tivities but: for the past few years it has been omitted. The members'are anxious to have an exhibit of - fruit and vegetablés raised in this vicinity as well as a display of fancy work and home cooking and the officers hve been instructed. to make the nec- essary arrangeinents. Have Sewer District Officer. The announcement of Selectman Johnson concerning his intention of seeking lcgal advice to determine if it is possible for the town to appoint a special police board to take full charge of the officers on duty has brought out a diversity of opinions from the voters, ‘While many admit that it mignt be well to have a special committee given authority over the constables, the legality of such a course is ques- tioned, the majority arguing that the law makes the officers responsible to the selectmen only. It has been pointed out, however, that the matter could be turned over to the sewer ‘district which 'would have the right to name a police board and in..that way the. responsibility would be taken from the selectmen. It is ‘doubtel if anything will be done regarding the matter at ' least before the annual town meeting oin October. : Expect F-var-ble Action.

Grout’s trial lasted nine weeks and the jury was out fifty-three hours. accommodations are at present inade- quate does not appear to be disputed and seemingly ‘he only question is the method to be employed in relieving the threatened congestion. Members of the school committee ‘favor the purchase of a portable s¢hool house of one room at a cost of about $700. This idea meets with the approval of many of the voters, although some think a permanent ad- dition to the grammar school building should be made. It is not thought that the suggestion concerning the abandoning of the kindergarten will be seriously considered by the meet- ing. Funeral Services.
