Tomorrow evening there will be a hearing the board of Public Works on the advisability of creating a new street in the center of the city, the extension of Lake street to Main will come before the public. The project has cropped up for a number of years past, and no great opposition has developed al- though the possibility of adding to our street facilities had never reach- ed the point which is now present. It is said that there is, In contempla- tion, a scheme which calls for a building alongside the rallroad tracks. If this is erected the expense of build- ing the street will be much greater, and the universal bellef is that ul- timately the thoroughfare must be immediate ac- before when through placed. Consequently tion is necessary. Most New Britainites are familiar with the plan. Briefly, it is to open up Lake street, continuing it to Main parallel with the railroad tracks on the south side. The advantages to the public are obvious to one who icontemplates the ever-inoneasing trafic about our center. Automobiles are many, there is no passageway for them, south of the tracks in a wester- ly direction, until the green, and West Main street is reached. Any passer- by knows the amount of traffic here at rush hours, a part of which, at least would be diverted on the We have the pedestrian, also, to consider.

The | name stands for any one of the sev- eral Kings of England, 1027-1087. The Irish Protestants called their | sons William, if born on July 12th.
