The members are ap- ‘preciative of Mr. Bonney's splendid work in getting a . Plainville troop started and thfy propose to see that nothing stands in the way of develop- ing his plans. They decided to ask the sdouts to help in clean-up cam- paign and also to gistribute literaturs sent out by the Connecticut food com- mission regarding the planting of gar- dens this summer. The directors be- lieve there are many ways the scouts can help, and they have faith that the organizaton will prove of considerable value to the town as a whole, as well as the individuals connected with it The public utilities committee re- ported that it has taken up with the Bristol and Plainyllle Tramway com- pany the matter of extending the gas main on the lower end of Whiting, strecet.
