" An important meeting of the Ken- sington Congregational church will be held Thursday afternoon at the lhome of Mrs. 8. M. Cowles. For jsome time the women of the church lhiave been considering plans for g the Home and Foreign mis- fion work in one society, instead of jontinuing two separate auxiliaries. At the September meetings each Jauxiliary voted in favor of the plan ndl a committee was chosen to pre- a constitution and make rules or the' new organization. The com- piftee will render its report Thursday it is expected that the organiza- ~will be completed and officers lected. This is directly in line with jhe action taken by the National uncil, which is at present in ses- at New Haven, and puts the mis- onary ' work of the church on its Jproper basis. rai"ng and foundered in the ditch. ere were two occupants in the car.

The game was well played but the visitors were no match for the local youths, A large crowd was present and it ap- plauded both teams generously. The entire Kensington team played credi- tably and it would be difficult to pick an individual star. The Dublins played hard but could not .withstand the crashes of the Kensington backs and were completely mystified by the marvelous forward pass wrok of the McCormack brothers. Earl Gibney refereed and his work was excellent, not a kick being made against fis de- cisions. Next Sunday the Acorns will meet a New Britain team. The line-up yesterday was as follows: center, F. Brignola; guards Trehy and Roche; tackles, Frank and Rafael Tarrezenie; ends, Carr and McCarrol; backs, John Christian Lane bridge last evening when a Ford car crashed through the ner and Norman Hutchinson. The sub- stitutes were *“Speed” Ryan, William Hart, and Frank McKeon. Tea Room Notes. Mrs, F. J.

Failure of the air brakes to work and slippery ralls are given by the crew of the “extra’ as the cause of the smash. One of the cars had stopped at the station while the motorman operated the light signal. The other coach was not brought to a stop quick enough and as a result the two cars came together, the impact al- most throwing the passengers from their seats. “Some of the women pas- sengers shrieked with fright and for a time confusion reigned, memories of the bad accidents which occurred on the line a few years ago making them slmost panic stricken. Leo M. Prior of this place, who was on one of the cars, narrowly accepted being badly injured. He was thrown from his seat by the impact, his head crashing through a window. He es- caped without a scratch, although he hLas a lame back today from the rough usage he received. The ‘‘extra’” was in charge of Motorman Hathaway 'and was follow- ing closely behind the regular car when the switch was reached. Must Use Dimmers, Orders have been issued by the Bristol and Plainville Tramway company for the use of dimmers on the headlights on trolley cars while they are stalled at the Plainville ter- minal at night. The motormen have been supplied with a patented device which takes off the glare, leaving but a dim light. The new arrangement was made following numerous complaints by local people, autoists particularly, who declared that there was grave danger of accidents as drivers of became dazzled by the glaring lights ing. The cars “lay over” about minutes on the terminal each trip and it is while they are stationed at the end of the line that the dimmers are to be used. The latter was taken company some time ago, acting favorably on the made. five up with the the officials A. E. Boynton 1. Arthur E.

The program as framed by Secretary Gar- rison already has been approved by the president in its general outlines | and the conference was one of a se- | ries to be held this week for com- pleting the details. At a previous confereénce between Chairman Hay and the President Mr. Hay was said not to have approved all of the details of the plan. Since then he has made a careful study of the subject and was said to be jready to tell the president what he | believed should be done. Senator Chamberlain, chairman the senate cemmittee, also probably will confer with the President this | week. He has heen quoted as ap-‘ proving the program in its main es- sentials. | | | of | i ! | Assistant Postmaster Clinton J. Morse and wife, and Mr. and Mrs. Gordon P. Morse, and Miss Margerv‘ G.

His physicians have or- dered him to take a rest of several weeks, Mr. Boynton is suffering from a general breakdown and his friends are anxjous about his condition. Quiet Saturday Night. While it was reported that Bris- tolites, who visited thigst- -quenching establishments here Saturday night, had some near-fights, no arrests were made and the evening passed without any disturbances of consequence. It was the second Saturday night in the year that the center was not pa- trolled by a policeman. Wwere on the street for a part of the evening and they found conditions satisfactory. ~ At least they did not consider it necessary to exercise their authority. There are still a number of people in Plainville who believe that town should have a policeman on duty regularly. The selectmen, however, propose to try getting along without them for a time and they are not yet isfied that the experi- ment is a failure. In a few day Bristol saloons will again be open and | it is expected that there will be a noticeable falling off in the number of Saturday night visitors from the | neighboring city.

One of them is Massachusetts. The democratic candidate is the present governor, David 1. Walsh The re- publican nominee is Samuel McCalL L. cials that County Sheriff Edward Dewey should appoint a deputy for Plainville to succeed William C. Hart, dropped at the expiration of his term last May. Since the town decided to do with- out a regular policeman, the need of a sheriff has ben emphasized and it is probable that in the near future steps will be taken to have an ap- pointment made. First Selectman Johnson is among those who realize the advantages of having a deputy sheriff here. He believes the town should have an officer who can be located easily during the daytime. Most of the constables are employed in factories and the selectman thinks that Sheriff Dewey should name a man whose work is of a character that would permit him to a quick re- sponse to any demand that ml;:hl" be made for his services, That there was but little justifica- tion, if in the removal of Deputy Sheriff Hart is generally conceded. | In fact that big vote given him | a candidate for selectman was re- | garded by many as a protest against the action of Mr. Dewey. Republi- can leaders will probably get together soon to consider the matter of en- dorsing someone for the place and { an appointment by the first of the vear will occasion no surprise. Good Sale of Tickets. Members of the Woman's club re- port a most encouraging demand for tickets for the Mother Goose fair o be given in the Town hall Wednes- day night and Thursday afternoon and evening.

The work of decorating the hall was | started today. The decorations will be novel in character and will be ap- propriate. The various committees have been working energetically for weeks to perfect the details of the plans, which were formulated several months ago, and the arrangements are now practically complete.
