A number of the drafted men were about the streets today bidding fare- | well to their numerous friends. Their | beaming countenances were silent tes- timonials as to théir inner feelings. All were anxious to get into action at once and were Dpatiently awaiting $heir trip to camp. Tonight the residents will turn out in a body at the Grange hall and give 8 farewell to the men. It is planned o make thc event one that will go down in the pages of the history of khe town. R. O. Clark of East Ber- 1in, George F. Dodd and Tax Collector Charles F. Lewis, the committee in charge, have devoted a large amount of their time arranging the affair and from the elaborate program prepared it should be a success. A dinner to the second list of eight men certified by the district board will be given at the Gramge hall at :30 o'clock. The prospective sol- diers will have as their guests at the repast, their mothers, wives and wee The dinner is being v the women of the Ber- inge which speaks for itself. Following the banquet a musical rogram will be carried out and kpeech making will be in order. Rev. Samuel A. Fiske, pastor of the Berlin ongregational church will preside as oastmaster.

Fagan and a number of friends of the man are trying to solve. Ferrari is to report at 7:30 o’clock tomorrow at Plainville to en- train for Camp Devens but his where- abouts is still unknown. There are three missives from the Division No.. 2 Exemption Board awaiting Ferrari at the Kensington post office. The first letter was received by Postmas- ter IFagan some time ago notifying Ferrari to appear for examinations. As this letter remained unclaimed Ferrari was automatically drafted into the service of Uncle Sam. A few days ago a blue card arrived in Ken- sington with a message to Ferrari to hold himself in readiness to report for duty within twenty-four hours. This card still awaits its owner at the past office. Now a pink card order- ing Ferrari to report at Plainville to- morrow has arrived. Postmaster Fagan communicated with brick manufacturers and vicinity and tried to locate the man. He met with little success. It is probable that Ferrari is employed at the Murray brickyard, but since the men go by numbers instead of names at the concern ,some difficulty will be experienced in locating him. Moore-O’Brien. A pretty wedding was solemnized at. St. Paul's Roman Catholic church at 9 o'clock this morning when Bernard P. Moore took Miss Nora E. O’Brien as his bride. Rev. J. C. Brennan, pa: tor of the church, was celebrant and was assisted by Rev. Patrick Daly of St. Joseph’s church, New Britain, as deacon, and by Rev. Thomas Sullivan of New Haven as sub-deacon. Miss Anna McKeon was the bridesmaid and James J. Fitzsimmons acted as best man. Following the ceremony at the church, which was largely at- tended, a wedding dinner was served at the bride's home. After an ex- tended honeymoon trip, Mr. and Mrs. Moore will reside in Kensington. To Make Voters. The selectman and Town Clerk ¥rancis H. Shaw will be in session at the town clerk’s office on Saturday from 9 o'clock in the morning until 7 o'clock in the evening to examine the qualifications of prospective vot- ers.

Young Larson, with a number of other youngsters was taking part in a gridiron game near the Congregational church when the accident occurred. Rev.
