S, The first anpual meeting of the Worthington e district was held last evening at ®o’'clock in the town hall. President Frank L. Wilcox gresided and reports were received (Qfirfl.ml- ing committees by Secretaty Arthur L. Wdodruff. The matter of having the sidewalks on Worthington Ridge repaired Immediately was given con- wideration and it was decided that the work be turned over to a street con- struction company. The Fire District voted to expend $600 toward having the sidewalks repaired. This money was given to the Fire District by the Berlin Village Improvement seclety, which recently took action on having the sidewalks repaired. The majority of the members of the fire district compose the Berlin Village Improve- ment society. New Lighting System. The matter of having street lighting on a pian similar to that of New Britain and Newington was taken up and it was decided that the fire dis- triot expend $800 in installing a new system on Worthington Ridge. It is planned to have a set of lights in- stalled from the Willlam H. Webster home om the northern end of the street as far as Sage's estate in the southern end of the town. The lights will be kept illuminated throughout the entire night It is probable that this contract will be awarded to the New Britain Electric Light company It was nat announced when the work will begin Seck Fire Protection. Action was also taken on installing some sort of a fire-fighting apparatus on Worthington Ridge. The fire pro- tection question has been the subject of discussion for the past several years, but nothing has been done re- garding . The fire district voted last evening that a number of fire extin- gulshees be purchased and one be wiven to every home on the Ridge This extinguisher will be large enough to extinguish a fairly large "laze. It is planned to have a platoon of fire-fighters, who will be trained to use this chemical apparatus, and will be ready to answer any fire call on the Ridge. It is probable that sev. eral hundred dollars will be spent in securing this necessity. The matter sof having a fire gong to notify the public of a fire on the street was post- yoned until a later meeting.
