The Christian Endeavor he Kensinzton Congregational church the means of furnishing a very shtful entertainment at the church parlors last evening. A quartet from the Hartford Theological Seminary, of w h Edward Cowles of Kensing- ton is a member, gave several very pleasing selections. During the eve- ning both vocal and violin solos were rendered by different members of the guartet which were well received by | al!l present. ome very ful club swinging was done by Neilson, one of the quartet members after which the hall was dark d and an exhibition of torch swinging was given. The latter method of swing- ing gave a very pretty and weird ef- fect against the darkness of the hall.

News SEEEQWEN ISSUE CALL FOR MEETING Town Would Have to Spend $5,700 to Extend Pavement VOTE ON POLICE QUESTION Selectmen Opposed to Making Appro- priation Required by Improvement —Session to Be Held Next Thurs- day—May Buy Voting Machines, Two important matters are to be put up to the voters for the decision by the selectmen on November 16, a special town meeting having been called for that date to cansider the y of appropriating $5, improvements on Whiting st ister their choice regarding the advisibility of maintaining a regu- lar officer to patrol the streets of the town each night. The first clause in the call for the meeting was inserted as a result of the suggestian of State Highway Commis- the state and Connecticut company in extending the permanent pavement area to take in Whiting strect to a roint where the trolley cars turn onto the corporation’s property., Because of the large amount in- velved it is doubtful if favorable action be taken by the "meeting. It | would necessitate the addition of at ieast two mills to the grand list and other extraordinary expenses will be incurred, the selectmen Within a few weeks, and probably during this month, the state with the cn-operation of the trolley company will start Jaying amiesite pavement on ghway. Their plans call for a even foot strotch of the pave- nient which will leave approximately 6 1-2 feet on each side of the highway unimproved., Commissioner Bennett wants the town to contribute enough towards the expense toward extending the pavement from curb to curb. FHe estimates that Plainville’s donation will have to be about $5.700 or morg than the town has expended in high- way improvements for two years. While the value of the improvement i recognized the selectmen believe the expense too heavy to warrant the town’s entering into the plan and they are expected to suggest to the voters that they decide to be satisfied with the changes made by the state and trolley people. The board is comsidering several suggestions for the policing of the streets. Their idea of having the railroad work in co-operation with the town has been received rather un- favorably in the ‘yellow building” in New Haven and the selectmen finally decided to lay it before the voters. May Buy Machines. Another town meeting is scheduled for November 20 when action is to be taken regarding the purchase of the voting machines used in the election last Tuesday. The machines seemed to give general satisfaction and the question of expense is seemingly the cnly one liable to cause any objection to their purchase. The Automatic Register company of Jamestown, N. Y., which supplies the apparatus, quotes the machines at $600 each, the town to pay transporta- tion expenses in addition. For the use of the apparatus in the recent election the town insurs an ex- pense of approximately $200 even if the machines should be sent back. The company charges $75 for the rental .of each machine and the town had to pay express and other charges in addition. Should it decide to buy them outright the $150 paid for rental will apply on the purchase price, the town paying the $950 re- maining. By changing from the Australian ballot to the voting machine expenses this year will be increased sufficiently to compel the addition of at least one mill to the grand list. Under the circumstances it is not believed this extra contribution will bring any ob- jection from the taxpavers, the gen- eral opinion seeming to be that the improvement In conditions on election day warrants the expenditure, Plainville Team Wins. The Plainville Young Men’s club auspiciously opened their basketball season last evening in the Town hall, successfully meeting a quintet rep- resenting the Y. M. C. A. of New Brit- ain before an enthusiastic audience of about 200. The local boys under the capable leadership of = Captain Hird took the visitors into camp, having the long end of a 32 to 16 score at the close of the contest. It was a well plaved game and was thoroughiy enjoyed by those who turned out to witness it. In the preliminary contest between two teams sclected from the club, the quintet captained by Foran was victorfous, 12 to 11. After the exhibitions dancing was enjoyed. The club intends to have basket- ball and dancing every Thursday night during the winter.

Democrats Are Happy. Plainville democrats in common with others of their political beliefs throughout the country were today wearing happy smiles as a result of Wilson’s apparent victory. A number of bets were made by lo- cal people and collections were in or- der today.

Wed- nesday morning when it appeared that Hughes could pack up his be- longings and prepare to move into the ‘White House, “Dan” paid over one of his wagers and today he is on a still hunt for the G- O.

CLIMAX IN WAR Field Marshal French be found elsewhere in Says It Will Come Now or In Spring—German Cause Lost, Says Brussiloff, Landon, Nov. 10, 4 a. m.—Two op- timistic views of the war from the point of view of the allies are given a prominent place in the morning news- papers. The first is a quotation from the speech made at the Lord May's banquet last night by Field Marshal Viscount French. ; The fleld marshal said: ‘It seems that the contest is approaching a climax, to come either now or in the spring. We must remember, however {that a climax and an end are mnot necessarily the same thing.” The second opinion was expressed by General Alexis Brussiloff, who, speaking to a British correspondent at Russian headquarters, sald: “The war is won today.
