It is now possible to have this xoad built if the town will avail itself of the opportunity now at hand. It is upori.the advice and request of Highway Commissioner Bennett that the town avail itself of the special ap- propriation for the construction of connseting-links that this special town meeting -is being called. Senator Claude 'W. Stevens in company with Ernest: Mildrum, W. 1. Alling, A. A. North, Francis Deming, Oscar Benson and L.'A. Westcatt waited upon Mr. Bennett last Monday and were advised ty him that the East Berlin roa could now be fixed under the special appropriation. The commissioner stated that he had had a number of complaints registered at his office in regard to this road and he would like to see the road fixed up immediately as it was a trunk line. A great deal of‘credit is due to Senator Stevens, who discovered that the road could be constructed under chapter 307. He Immediately got in touch with Ernest Atildrum and upon the advice of Mr., [ Bennett started the ball rolling for a new highway. There is nothing to starting of construction road as soon as the special town meeting passes on it as the state is simply waliting for the town to pass the measure. The road has been u discredit to the entire town for vears and complaints have been registered with the commissioner about it for a {ong time and no one would like to see a new road there any more than he would. The entire town. it is stated, wEulé benefit by the new highway as svery automobilist in the town has to zo over the road more or less, as it is a trimk lne to Middletown and New London. On the petition calling for the spécial town meeting there are names from the three districts which shows that the move has the éndarse- ment of thé entire town. The outstanding feature in the con- gtruction of this road is that the town will not have to pay a cent for the building of the road until it has been entirely completed and then the cost to the town will be one-quarter of the total cost. This is much to be pre- ferred over the other system which provides that the town put up their money at the beginning of the con- struction. Under the new act the town will not have to pay out a cent prevent the on the new until the completion of the contract. This will give the town ample time to raise its share of the cost, giving it s vear and part of next to raise the money. If the road is to be built it will be built of concrete in all proba- bility as the difference in the cost of a macadam and concrete road is but a trifle over $2,000. A concrete road can be kept up with a minimum of cost, whereas in a few years a ma- caddm road begins to need constant repairing. A Warrenite road is more costly by far than concrete and is consequently out of the question, ) Finance Board Mcets. The finance board met last evening at the town hall to go over the various budgets for the ensuing vear. The en- tire evening was practically taken up with the school board budget, which } will call for between $44,000 and $47 500 for the coming year. four more teachers vear than last, the increased There " are on the staff this which is a big item in budget. The deficit of $3,500 included in the above amounts. The meeting last evening was in, entire accord, much different from the town meeting a few weeks ago. Another meeting will- be necessary to iron out the remaining kinks in the different hudgets as there are still one ar two items in the school budget to be considered and some on the roads.

The §:40 car from Berlin left the track at the foot of Damon’s Hill last evening caused by the spreading of the rails. This stretch at the foot of the hill has long been a wretched piece of track and has been consid- cred a menace to publ fety. It is unfortunate that an accident has to! occur every time in order to bring about the necessary repairs but it al- ways brings about the desired results as was shown th morning by the Jarze gang of lahorers rebuilding the road bel for nearly a hundred yards at the foot of the hall. No one was injured last evening but a number were pretty well shaken wup and scared. Midway All Here.

In 1835 Newton originated the vac- uum process for condensing milk with cane sugar to a semi-liquid form. In 1883 Horlick at Racine,Wis., dis- covered how to reduce milk to a dry powder form with extract of malted grains, without cane sugar. This product HORLICK named Malted Milk. (Name since copied by others.) Its nutritive value, digestibility and ease of preparation (by simply stirring in water) and the fact that. it keeps in any climate, has proved of much value to mankind as an ideal food-drink from infancy to old age. Ask for HORLICK’S —Avold imitations A petition sizghed by more twenty legal electors of the-Town of Berlin. has been received by the un- dersigned Board of Selectmen.

Y.L CARS TO BE USED IN TOWN Zone System May Also Be Put in Eifect on This Line NO DEFINITE ~STATEMENT Albert J. Conl Injured Aviator, Ar- rives ‘Back Home—Pleasant Party Held in Honor of Miss Mary Prior —Other Brief Items. Tha “pay-zs-you-leave” system of collecting fares will be paced in oper- ation on the trolley cars between here and New Britain as well as in other cities and towns about the state at soms time during next nionth. This was confirmed by Superintendent Frank R. Beardsley at the New Brit- ain office of the company this morn- ing. In this system of fare collec- tion, the passenger receives a ticket from ‘he motorman when he enters the the ticket being punched on the name of the station where the passenger enfers the car. When leav- ing the car the passenger hands the ticket io the conductor who com- putss the charge for the ride basing his caleulation upcn the number of miles between the two stops accord- ing to a given scale. The charze per mile has not heen wnnovnced. There is a r1umor that the Syster: will also be installed on the local lines. The system has heen tried with more or less success in Massachrisetts and Rhcde Island. In ew Jersey it was the responsible for ihe dis~ontintance of . tearly 200 trolley lines. y A discussion of the zone s: stem was going on last evening in a more or less public place in this town and a stranger who heard ihe talk and who claimed to be a native of Massachu- setts entered the argument and de- scribed ihe zone system as follows: “The passenger pays seven cent up- on the first collection and two or three cents thercafter for evi ry time he looks out of the window.” : If such a system is put into opera- tion on the nnlle\ lines in this s tion of the state it is probable that the fare paid for a ride on a trolley car will exceed the fare charged for the same ride on the steam railroads. If this proves to be true it may re- sult in a boyecit of the trolley com- pany’s cars to a certain extent. As the trolleys run from Plainville to New FEritain every fifteen minutes .t is obvious that patrons will in many cases ride on the electric cars rgther trains. The increase of the trolley fare from five to cents last vear raised a storm of indignation in this state and it is praeti v certain that a new incre: se and cne or as large a scale as the expected increase, will raise 7. “tempest in the teapot.” Ut n point near the Connecticut company's power trarsfer station between here and New Britain two iron stakes have been erected with a line stretched across and it is believed that this marks the pcint where cne of the new zone lires wili be located. Albert Conlin Home. Albert J. Conlin is spending a fur- lough of 30 days at his home on Whit- ing street. He was injured in an accldent at an aviation field in Wash- ington, D. C., several weeks ago, suf- fering a fracture of a small bone in his back. He was removed to- the WWalter Reed hospital and has been there since the accident. Tt was er- roneously reported that Conlin had fallen from an airplane at the height of 1,000 feet. Conlin's own story of the accident is that he was making car, zone [ «onie repairs on a plane for the com- anding officer of the field when the chine collapsed, crashing down pon his body and pinning him to tre ground. He thinks the accident was a fortunate one, affirming that if {he officer had made a flight in the achine, it might have collapsed in inid-air, with more serious reslyfs, Various army officers Lave assured Conlin that he has good grounds for o suit against the company which 1manufactured the defective machine. The company is located in England, rever, and ‘Conlin savs, “I have a chance of getting any money out of anyone in England, when T can't £et any here.
