Junb’s total will preceding month. During the month of Ma purchases amounted to $225.98; Ken- sington’s, which was nearly double the amount of the others put together, was $1,247.5 East Berlin took $38 3 warth, and Beckley $35.89. These figures are not far behind those of the past few months. Since the beginning of the sales the following amounts have been sub- scribed by the four sections: Berlin, $3,200.36; Beckley, $184.46: East Ber- 1in, $1,450.73; Kensington, $4,710.04. In both post offices it has been notice- able that a great number of these stamps and certificates are being pur- chased by the school children. In some of the grades of the schools records are kept of the number of stamps owned by each child, and this encour- ages them to save their pennies for the purchase of stamps. bg larger than any Berlin’s Road Nearing Completion, Fach day of work on the road to Berlin street has brought it toward completion with real speed. The resi- dents of Berlin street today were able to see what they had been looking for for the past five or six years—the workmen and machinery busily en- gaged in leveling out the road near Woodruff’'s corner. This road hs been in such bad shape for vears that many of the people of Berlin street going to New Britain in automobiles have had ta make a detour of several miles. The spiked roller finished the work of digging up this end of road today, and a few weeks of laying the fine crushed stone will mean the end of the work. Part of the other end of the road has been finished en- tirely, and the road as far as the Ber- Jin Fair Graunds has been opened for | travel. Honor Roll Incomplete. The honor roll of the town in front of the Town Hall is not complete at present, and something should be done to have the names of all the young men and women of the town in the service, painted on this bul- When the board was first put up, the names of all young men golng into the service were inscribed within a short time after their leaving the town. Recently there has been a number of local registrants called rvice and at least 20 have gone in this way who have not bee accounted for on the honor roll. Mass. Cav Breaks Down.

The King resolution expresses it as the sense of the senate that a com- mission should be sent to Russia to aid in Russia’'s economic, industrial and political rejuvenation and also that an American expeditionary force should be sent at the same time to co-operate with the Allies and expel the Germans. The King resolution, it was learned, was not based on any intimation from the White House that consideration at this time in Congress was desirable. It was rather expressive f the feeling shared by many that action of some kind should be undertaken and that the delay is hurting the allied cause. In official circles there are intima- tions that the Russian problem still fairly bristles with diplomatic difficul- ties. character v Senator that the relations reason of the propo King it is a action by the committee will not suggestion of cooperation with the military forces of Japan and China ned in it will undoubtedly pro- opposition not only in the com- | ee but in the senate as well.
