Berlin’s adjourned was once again adjourned last evening intll November 13. As the reports huve not been completed and printed, no action could be taken on them and £0 the motion to adjourn was passed, Tut not before a resolution had been rassed in regard to the new concrete road. F. L. Wilcox presented the re clution which instructed the select- men to confer with the highway com- missioner and arrange to complete the cement gutters the full length of tlie concrete road in Worthington pireet. Mr. Wilcox said that if the upper stretch was left in its present condi- t16n, with no curb or gutter, the rain and storms of the winter would cause dirt to wash down the road and thus leave it in a poor condition. W. H. Gibney, when called upon in yegard to the road, said that for sev- eral years there had been agitation for a better road, as the old highway was In poor condition. At the time the road was first talked of nothing wés said of the gutters. It veas the understanding that were it possible there would be a curb or gutter, but rot where the trees interfered with the work.

The officers continue very active in the interests of the court and they believe that tho opening of social rooms will result in a substantial addition to the number of Foresters in the town. At last night's meeting three appli- cations for membership were received. Plans were made for class which will probably be held some time in November when it is expect- ed one of the degree teams from a neighboring town will come here to do the work. Chief Ranger Murphy reports that the court Is in excellent condition, financially as well as socially, and the outlook is exceedingly bright.

Y. who will set the appa- ratus in position. The manufacturers will probably have mechanics in town tomorrow or Thursday, and before the end of the week the selectmen hope to be in a position to give dem- onstrations of the machines for the information of the voters, many of whom have never had an opportunity to operate them.

That there is a blg demand for real estate in Plainville is evidenced from the success of the Urquhart- Swift company in disposing of the ear the growth been remark- ar tract of land in Red Stone hill which | it recently cut into building lots. The company bought ten acres near Bo- | street and sent its salesmen here but a few weeks ago, opening an office In the Newton block on West Main street. hemia The company expected to keep Its | representatives here for at least two | months, but it was stated today that the office will close tomorrow, all but four of the lots having already been sold. In the tract were ninety-four lots and they were bought quickly by speculators and prospective home builders. Pronerty owners, itable for building purposes, have Teen approached by representatives of a number of real estate companies during the past few months but few sales have been recorded. Prices have been advanced considerably, the owners evidently figuring that real estate values are to go skyward dur- ing the next few vears. The quick disposition of the Urqu- hart-Swift tract would indicate that there is a good field here at this time for land development Plan Evangelistic Services, Arrangements have been the pastor, Rev.
