The rain was incessant during the night and carly this morn- ing people began o sce the effects of the downpour. The Pequabuck river flows from beyond Bristol through this town and up into Farmington where it become what is called the IFarmington river. Old residents of the town have scen the river high, but never as high ns this morning for its overflow reached from the banks of the N, Y., N. 1L & . railroad tracks ta the back doors of the stores in the Newton hlock on West Main street. Ivervthing was swept in the whirl of the water and debris of all kinds could he seen from the railroad bridge this morning. liven larze and sturdy looking pieces of Tumber were unheeded and joined the mad onrushing water. The ume of water was so great that it is supposed to go over vol- where the dam in the rear of the Clark factory it chang- od its course ahsolutely and a trip along the course of the stream today showed it flowing west almost as far as the cemetery before turning north- ward toward Farmington The twa canals, the old canal near the slaughter house and the one time New Haven canal, were filled this morning for the first time in year and the water ran in the old cour which formerly formed the means of transportatian from New Haven to Northampton. The Quinnipiac river on the way to New Britain, however, proved the real damaging stream. For years thero had been nothing but the shadow of a viver and the surprise this morning was to see a great swirling mass of water in the course. So great was the force of the water that it undermined a newly constructed cement bridge a short distance below the trolley bridge which crosses the river below Prumbull’s shon. The bridse was cently erected hy a New RBritain firm for the Rockwell-Drake factory in connection with its building of sewer beds in that region. The estimated loss {o the bridge is $2,000 Other sectons of the town suffered likewise and it will take the street de- partment some fime to repair the damage done Pay for the Doughnuts. In I'rance many Plainville boys were cheered by members represent- ing the Salvation Army who gave the boys hot coffee and doughnuts when they came from the trenches tired and miserable. The organization which did that good work is now ap- pealing for funds and already active campaigns have been started in near by fowns and cities. It was known that this town would be ealled upon to contribute its shave and now the opportunity has come. €. R. Sher- man announced today that the town's quota has been placed at $500. The { amount is hased on the amount which the town donated in the drive for money for the seven war organiza- tions. Local people will have a chance to gzive voluntary —subscrip- tions at the local Red Cross rooms this evening. tomorrow evening and Saturday afternoon and evening. If possible 4 house to house campaign will also be held and the town's rec- ord upheld, as in former drives. Medals Received By Workers, I All local people who helped in the recent Vietory loan campaign have been rewarded for theiv efforts by receipt in this morning’s mail of a medal sent from Washington and which was struck from a captured German cannon. The medals are very appropriately engraved and tell of the wearer having done his share in helping make the loan a success. A note accompanying them said that the name of each individual veceiv- ing (hem is being kept in the perma- nent records in Washington. On one side of the medal is the laurel wreath, designating Vietory, and a design of the treasury bullding in Washington, showing what the medal was given for. On the reverse side are the ap- propriate. words telling of the ap- preciation of the work of all Victory loan helpers. This town went over the fop in the Victory loan by about $10,000 due mostly to the great amount of pub- licity given the loan and its features, and also fo the hard work upon the part of the canvassing members of the Joan committce who went from house to house secking subscriptions. Memorial Day Celebration. Definite plans for the observance of Memorial Day in this town have not as yet heen made public, but this ven will prove no exception to former years and may have an added touch With many of the returned heroes of the world war at their homes. The day has always been duly celebrated by memhers of the “Old Guard” who have remained faithful in their dugy of remembering their dead conmvrades who fell many years ago and paid the same sacritice which the boys of the past two years paid on the leldy of France. In the schools the chil dren are always told of the deeds of the valiant soldiers of the Civil Way The parade from the town hall to the centetery has been i thing of the past A for several years, or since the com. pletion of the Central Squaiy Soldiers’ Monume c.
