Nourse to Report—Briefs. _There is much indignation among | land and the buildings to Sophia Gus- ‘lome,of the members of the republi- can party because of the secret meet- ing, held by about thirty of their confreres in the Blue Hills district on The affair was planned last week and everything was carried out as arranged but a cog slipped somewhere and the news jeaked out this morning. Evidently the result’ of the caucus was not pleasing /to “those loyal re- publicans” that assembled on Sunday, for it is said that the greater part of the time was spent in devising some “s ways to defeat two or three of 'the ~sarly nominees. Of course, it is an cpen secret around town that the present incumbent of the office of first seiectman, Willlam H. Gibney, is per- gona non grata with a few of the powers that be and he is the one that the drive is aimed at. It could not be scertained just how their object js to be obtained, but it is thought that it will be accomplished by each . person who was at the meeting seeing a certain number of voters and con- vincing them that it would be better to have the board of selectmen domi- nated by the democratic party than to have the present head act in that “If the feelings of the vote ho did not hcear of the con- clave until this morning are to be taken as a criterion, the nominees of +. the caucus who took part in the pro- ceedings, and there were some, W have a hard time in obtaining suffi- cient votes to ensure their own elec- ticns. v Voters.

At Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, some 18,000 men are at work. sent about twenty-five of the tongues or dialets of the world. They are in the business of making machinery to kill. The distribution to these men of their hire is not the least of the ac- tivities of this institution. Each day | paid, the total of the daily payroll being $50,000. Obviously, this means 1hat the average wage is five dollars. But for the marring object of the teil, this would be a picture of pros- perity. It can hardly be coniended, in the large sense, that this is necessa work. But on the oiher hand it can- not be denied that, as conditions are, it is work that must be done. The will of the nations is to kill and some- how the means will be found with i Which to do it. 1o refuse to have part in the manu- facture would cnly momentarily check the output. this country there are similar groups of workers for a like end. Bridge- port, New Haven and Hartford in this state each have their thousands, and presently may each have as many as has Bethlehem, cngaged in the making of mach to kill, either for the supply of the nations now at war, or for the supply of nations neutral, including our own, which fear they may be at war. So it is with all the nations. Ger- i many has one plant employing almost | four times as many men as has Beth- | | lechem. Great Britain has her mighty armament factories, of size greater than we are told. Japan is building ithem in mad haste to supply the Rus- sian demand. Half the world, it. would seem, is at the task of making | material for war. Yet again we are | bound to repeat, it is work that must | be done. Only so can the world learn | ite lesson of peace, it seems. court in Hartford, during the pres- | They repre- | a certain group of 3,000 of them is| For the United States ; In other parts of | now | | Plainville News — e e NORMAL INCREASE List of School Children WILL MOVE KINDERGARTEN In Fined—Perkinson Guilty Ag A | | i [ | | | i | Common Drunkard—Nelson Makes Brilliant Flight—Other Briefs, INTOWN'S GROWTH thorities in bringing to trial Tuesday, without first having notified them, the New Haven young men implicated in the raid on a farm near Dunham’s | bridge Saturday.

The figures shown hy the enumera- the during the past yvear has been about normal and that there is no occasion for special worry over the matter of school accommodations. Rev. F. L. Grant, the retiring sec- retary of the school committee, ex- pressed the belief today that the building, recently purchased, will prove a solution of the school accommodation problem for the next few years and will make it apparent that the investment was well warranted. The building now being prepared for occupancy and it is expected that early next week the kindergarten will be moved from its temporary quarters in.the Grange building. Mr. Grant pointed out that by purchasing the little building the town gained dn extra room for its *school. Without it crowded conditions would exist in many of the grades and the conditions under which the children wculd be taught would be most unsatisfactory. The new building will make it pos- gible to relieve the congestion and for some time will make adequate room for the needs of the town. Under present conditions members of the school board argue it would not be advisable to go to any great expense in putting an addition to the brick building. By investing a small amount in a schoolhouse of the portable type suitable accommo- dations will be provided for the next few years. By that time the needs of the town will be better known and it can readily be deter- mined whether an addition or a new building in some other section of the town is most needed. The opinion prevails in some quar- ters that the town did not act wisely in ordering the portable building as, owing to its size, some believe it will be of little service. The school committeemen, however, advance the claim that it will satisfy the require- ments of the town for at least two years and when crowded conditions again prevail the voters will be bet- ter able to act intelligently on the question. Rhodes Changes Mind. Carl Rhodes of Unionville, who en- tered a plea of not guilty to charges of violating the automobile laws when arraigned in the superior court Tues- day, changed his mind about facing a jury yesterday and through his at- torney secured the permission of Judge Tuttle to admit his guilt. The court had arranged to have him tried tcmorrow hut Rhodes made up his mind to throw himself on Judge Tuttle’s mercy. After he had changed | his plea the court imposed a fine of $25 and costs. The accused was ar- rested here by Officer Marino and ap- pealed from Justice Condell’s decision by which he was fined on two counts Harry Parkinson, bound over & Justice Conde!l Sunday as a common drunkard, was arraigned in the higher court vesterday afternoon. His case was to have been put off until the December term but State’s Attorney lvanced it to the September Parkincon cntered a plea of Sentence will probably be imposed in his case late today. Bernard Levoff of South Washing- ton street, fined here soveral ngo for striking a boy. was before the | court yesterday on an appeal from his i conviction, ‘He denied his guilt and portable school his case for the jury. It was expected that it would be rcached before this | evening. . Fred F. IFoster, an autoist, satisfied with the action of Justice Condell in fining him for failing to have lights on his machine, was also terday’s session. on the charge The imposing of a penaity was put off until later. Aeroplane Flights Coramon. Plainville is no longer disturbed or excited over aviato flishts of bhird men becoming so common here that attract but passing notice. The itions have lost their novel char- acter cs a res of the numerous flights given by Nels J. Nelson, who has had his hiplane at the Allen field i for the past few davs. & brilliant exhibitions. None of them, however, measure up to the flight he made this. morning. when he arose from the field and piloted the craft over thc town, rcturning to the race course fifteen minutes after his ma- chine had left the ground. He made a successful landing. Local Officers Want Pay.
