The first meeting of the newly or- ganized union teachers' training class will be held Wednesday evening at 0 o'clock in the chapel of the Bap- church on East Main street. The s Will be under the direct super- vision of Mrs. Cora Davis Stevens, a mernber of the force of the Connecti- cut Sunday School association. The teachers and officers of all Sunday schools of Plainville churches will be present. Thé union teachers’ training class was arganized about two weeks ago to train teachers for the task of instruec- tion in the Sunday schools in local ‘churches. The plan is being carried out in many other 'towns of the state and ha$ worked out successfully in the wajority of, cases, hence the formation 1ss for Sunday school instructors in this town. Mrs. Stevens, the supervisor of the class, has had much experience in a wide fleld and has a therough knowl- edge of the proper manner of con- ducting such a class. The class will meet on Wednesday evening of each week. Must Present Petitions. Property owners who have received notice of increases in valuations of property are reminded that only a week remains in which to present to the board of relief petitions for re- duction in the assessments. The pe- titions must be presented within this time to remain within the prescribed limit of 20 days after the first meet- ing of the board. The assessors will have the remainder of the month of February in which to complete the work and the board of relief will be allowed the same length of time to act on appeals for reduction of valua- tions and file their decisions. Thus far only a few petitions for reductions have been presented. Valentine Social Tonigh The Kappa—iota club of the Cbngre- gational church Sunday school will hold a meeting this evening at 7 o’clock at the home of Louis Pike of Strong court The meeting will take the form of a valentine party. The officers request all members Lo be present. Protection Not Discussed. The predicted discussion of the matter of protection at the East street railroad crossing did not take place at the meeting of the Plainville Bus- iness and Improvement association, according to a statement made this morning by Ralph Sevmour, secre- tary of the orzanization. It was said that the principal business to be transacted at the meeting would be the agitation for the placing of gates, flagman or some sort of protection at the,crossing. The topic was not even mentioned at the meeting. It is probable, however, Mr. Seymour stated, that the question will be dis- cussed at a future meeting of the association. The East street railroad crossing, which was a topic for discussion at the time of the proposed improve- ment of East street by the town, is unprotected by gates or flagmen, and Louis and Nhthan Jartman were in- jured. the latter fatally, at the cross- ing on Wednesday, February 4, when a motor truck on whieh they were riding. was struck by a train.
