Dr. Griswold this morning stated that there was no cause for alarm as the disease® had been caught in the early stages and the probabilities of its spreading were very slight. All of the members of the family includ- ing the children have been recently vaccinated and the possibility is that this case will be an isolated one. All Ready For Registration Day.

Numerical Strength of Fire Depart- ment to Be Increased to . Forty—— Stores to Close at 12:30 on Wednes- days—Ready for Registration Day. Dissatisfied with the action of his associates in approving the petition of the Hose company for permission to ‘increase s membership from 85 to 40 while the nation is at war, Hugh M. Rlood has tendered his resignation to the selectmen as a fire commis- sioner. Mr. Flood has declined to re- consider the resignation and has de- clared that his decision is final. The selectmen have not as yet named his successor. Mr. Flood’s resignation is a sequel to the efforts of Chief Norton and officers of the Hose company for a larger fire department while the coun- .| try is passing through its great crisis. As ‘many of the firemen are subject to draft and the indications are that the ranks will soon be somewhat de- pleted because of the members going into the federal service, the opinion eld in the company that extra men should be named that the efficiency of the department will not be impaired when resignations begin to come in. The officers want some of the reser- vists made regular members to bring the numerical strength of the depart- ment's members from thirty-five ' to forty. 3 They argue, among other things, that the reservists are entitled to bet- 'ter protection than they are now re- cetving. At the Hills factory fire the reservists worked with the other members but because of their status they would not receive aid from the State Firemen's association should they have been injured. By taking them into the ranks the regulars ex- plain they will be entitled to the same benefits as the others. Commissioner Flood held that it would be time enough to make new appointments when the resignation of any of the regulars was received. He believed that it would be saddling an ra burden of expense on the town to have forty men draw pay every time the fire alarm was sounded- In his opinion an increase in member- ship is unnecessary at this time. Commissioners Thompson and Simpson, constituting a majority of the board, concurred in the opinion of Fire Chief Norton and the petition of the company was granted. . Commissioner Flood, who is the oldest members of the board in point of service, told his assoclates that he had been considering resigning for some time and he believed the pres: ent disagreement made his action op- portune. Mr. Flood has been the democratic representative on the board for a number of yesrs and has given splen- aid servic His associates and the firemen as well regret exceedingly his decision to quit but they have been unable to pursuade him to reconsider his decision. Joseph E. McNerney Dead- Joseph E. McNerney, forty years, dled early this morning at the home of his sister, Mrs. Joseph F. Dimes of Crown street, after a pro- tracted {llness. Arrangements for tho funeral, which are being made by Undertaker M. Leo Prior have not been completed but it {s expected that the services will be held Wednesday morning in the Church of Our Ladv of Mercy. Burial will be in St. Joseph's cemetery- Mr. McNerney leaves, besides his sister, two brothers, John of Salmaca, N. Y., and Thomas of Jamestown, N. Y. Ready for Registration Day. Plainville young men, at least those who were included in the military census recently taken, today received postal cards from the state council of defense reminding them that to- morrow is registration day and they are obliged by law to report at the Town hall between the hours of 7 a. m. and 9 p. m- to have their names put on the list of those eligible for conscription. The registration board, which. Is made up of the selectman, the town clerk and the two registrars of voters, and the eleven volunteer aides, have completed arrangements for the part they are to take jn the work and they will be on hand at 7 o'clock tomor- row morning to begin their duties. In conference with the Juggestion ‘of the governor whistles{ will be blown and bells tolled at' 7 o'clock. 12:60 and 7 o'clock in the evening to remind eligibles to their duty. An effort will be made to get man- ufacturers to lend their co-operation by permitting elimibles employed in their plants to leave their work dur- ing the day to register. This will fa- cilitate the workings of the registra- tion board and will also make it un- necessary for the young men to wait for any considerable time because of crowds during the noon hour or in the evening. It is estimated that it will take about seven minutes to make out each blank and the board has ar- | ranged to have each clerk look after approximately twenty-five of the young men. Special plans have been prepared ,to bring in employes of the quarries and the young men employed at the ‘trlmxter station and the foremen are expected to see that they report at me Town hall during the day. - Except possibly with friendly aliens who through ignorance of the law or as a result of suggestions made by friends to the effect that they are mtobu;odtom".uhnotex- aged about ] BUY A “LIBERTY BOND” Do you realixe that your lub‘eflpd.on for one or more Liberty Bonds means the “Democracy” that every American citizen enjoys to- day?

The club’s treasury was given & substantial boost Saturday afternoon when the little girls gave a bazar on the porch of Henry Trumbull's home. It was originally arranged to have the affair on the lawn but be- cause of the inclement weather this was made impossible. Fancy articles and home made candy, prepared by the little girls themseives ,and con- tributions made by grown-ups who became interested in their activities, were =old. The bazar was well pa- tronized and was a splendid success. In the club's treasury was over $3 realized from a play given last fall by the little girls. The amount raised Saturday brought the fund up to over $36 and during the week it will be turned over to Rev, J. E. Klingberg, head of the Children’s Home. “The club’s members are the Misses Doris Gwillim, Elizabeth Benjamin and Florence and Esther Trumbull. Trumbull Under Knife. John H. Trumbull, president of the Trumbull Electric company, has been admiffed to the Hartford hospital where he will undergo an aperation for intestinal trouble, ' believed to have developed from a strain which he recelved a few weeks ago while climbing a tree in search of birds’ | egga. The operation is not thought to ho one of very serious character. While Mr, Trumbull is laid up’the Plainville company of the Hame Guards, of which he is captain, will be in charge of First Lieutenant Peter F. Duffy, the next ranking officer.

Peter Rourke, arrested Saturday afternoon by Constable Anderson for causing a disturbance while intoxi- cated ,was-fined $5 and costs and tenced to jail for thirty days yester- day by Justice Condell, before whom he was arraigned. The accused has an unfavorable record and the-caurt was unwilling to grant his plea for leniency. " To Close Wednesday Afternoons. Proprietors of grocery stores, mar- kets and dry goods stores have agreed’ tq clase their places'of business at 12:30 every Wednesday during June, July and August. . The new arrange- ment will go into force Wednesday of this week. The decision of the merchants is in line with that taken by business men in other cities. The closing of the stores was de- cided on’not simply that the owners and their: clerks might have a weekly half holiday during the summer but to allow: them time in which to laok after gardens. Most of them have small plots of land under cultivation and the merchants are anxious that the men who work for them have a chance to assist in Increasing the food production of Connecticut during the war, The townspeople will doubtless con- cur. in the agreement made by the storekeepers and will make their pur- chases before 12:30 on Wednesdays.
