During the past few months thers thas been much discussion among the town's citizens in regard to establish- 4ng a playground for the children of Berlin and it was finally deoided that the citizens of the town hold a public ‘meeting the Berlin town, hall on riday evening, March 28, at 8 o’clock, to consider the advisabflity of pur- chasing the Atwater-Riley propeny adjoining the Berlin Congregational church, for a public playground. The committee in charge has posted notices about the town and announces that this is not to be a club for a few, “or a church affair, but a community enterprise and all of the townspeople are urged to attend the meeting. Women as well as men are urged to be present and give their opinfon. The committee in gharge is George F'. Dodd, Francis Deming and H. Z. Nourse, who asserted today that if the ‘community does not attend this public meeting, approve and support ¥ no attemp:t will be made to give the town this mich needed improve- ment. ‘ All of the local people having chil- dren are urged to be present as they will benefit most by the establishing of this proposed playground. During the summer vacation many of the children play about the streots and @wing to the heavy automobile traffic on the Berlin turnpike their lves are constantly in danger. By having a playground the children would be m- clined to stay there. One' of ithe committeemen ' an- nounced this morning that should the property be bought and the play- ground established it would be a very Pguitable place to erect the proposed memorial to the men and women in the service.

It is being planned to hold a social and dance at the rooms in the near future for the opening - night of the club. During the-past few years the hall has been used as a meeting place of the East Berlin Improvement com- pany, which recently have been Inco porated into the East Berlin Village Improvement society. The Woodmen are planning to purchase the grove in the locality of the Methodist church which will in all probability be con- verted into a public park and rest- ing place. Shortage of Tenements. At the present time there is not a tenement which is not occupied in the town and real estate dealers announce that there have been more real estate deals put through at Bast Berlin in the past two months than there has been during the past five years. It is asserted that it is now probable that, there are nearly as many people liv- ing at Fast Berlin as there are on Berlin street. The opening of the old mill at Fast Berlin, which was for- merly occupied by the Peck, Stowe Wilcox C'o. of Southington, will prob- ably result in the construction of a number of new buildings.
