Consolidating the newly created po- sltion of patrolman with that of jan- itor of the Town hall, the select- men have advised the constables tol figure on compensation for both in filing bids for the appointment. All the officers chosen at the annual town election have received letters from the board informing them that it has been decided to give preference to lo- cal officers in the selection of a po- liceman. $Should the terms they sub- mit be unsatisfactory to the selectmen or in case the services the man ap- pointed renders does not come up to their expectations, other methods for policing the streets will be adopted. First Selectman Johnson was ad- vised this morning that at least two of the constables proposed to take advantage of the selectmen’s offer and before night their bids would be in possession of the board. While the hours of service have not been definitely agreed upon, the select- | men in their letter %o the constables | suggested that in their bids they | figure on working from 7 o’clock at night until 4 in the morning, seven days a week. In addition they are to consider compensation for janitor service in the town hall and looking after the prisoners. The latter will probably include acting as escort for those who are sentenced to jail. Some of the constables are not wax- ing enthusiastic over the appoint- rent as they figure the hours of serv- too long for what the town will probaWly be willing to pay. There would be nine hours a day for patrol duty and probably two hours addi- tional for service at the town hall Dbesides the extra time they will be re- quired to put in when there are cases t0 be brought before the court. Thomas Conlon, who at present is iooking after the janitor work In the | Town hall, will be relieved o6f his du- tles when the patrolman i named, providing the bids submitted to the selectmen are satisfactory. Authority to have the policeman selectmen when the police question th voters passing a resolution in- structing them to appoint a man for which may be agreed upon.” The last clause in the resolution does not meet with approval in some | quarters as there is a belief that the policeman should devote his entire attention to his work as an officer. Putting too much work on him is considered by a number to be an indi- cation of false economy which is lable to have unsatisfactory results. After Grange Quarters.

The place would make an ideal lo- cation for social rooms. The first floor was originally arranged for use ac a store or market but it has been vacant since the building was erected.
