The proposition of such a system was brought up at a meeting [of the members on September 2, | when the town realized the impor- | tance of obtaining some apparatus whereby persons may summon the constables at night without any trouble. There were some doubts at first just what sort of a signal sys- tem could be installed that would answer the purpose, at the least ex- pense. A committee was appointed to arrange for this. A telephone system was out of the question. The committee suggested a time clock system that was approved by the association and installed. It was first tried last night and met with much success. Constable Phil- lip Marino is on night duty. His hours are between 9 o'clock in the night and 5 o'clock in the morning. During this time, he has six boxes, located at different parts of the own, where he bas to ring up. There is a box stationed at the post office on Whiting street, one at the rear of the Aldridge block, the rear of Russell's block, Newton's factory, McCall home at Neal court, and one at the | Plainville Trust company. This covers a broad area and Constable Marino is given one hour's time in which to cover it. The new system watchman’s. small round clock. is a box.

This is the first time the town has attempted to sell Christmas seals for the tuberculosis relief fund. Years eago they were sold for other cities. However, now that there is a local Visiting Nurse Station, the officials feel that thcy can sell enough seals to warrant a drive here. Posters have been receive@ and will be displayed tomorrow. The funds received from the seals will in no way be wsed for the nurses or Crbss work but will be fore the re- lief of the tuberculosis situation. It is hoped that the people will respond readily to the purchase of the seals and help Plainville reach a record in securing a large number of sales. The committee in charge of the drive feel that the town is doing a great deal towards raising a sum of $10,000 for the New Britain General hospital amd to start the same time, will be no simple matter. However, if every person will contribute .a small donation to- wards each, the allotted sum will | 1 be raised. Theodore Robertson.

As an introduction Prof. Pratt from “Milese Standish” the following verses: | “Seated beside Wer wheel, and carded wool like a snowdrift, Piled 'at her knee, her.white hands | feeding the ravenous spindle, | ! | the on the treadle, she gzuided the wheel in its mo- | tions; | Open wide on her lap, lay the well- worn psalm book of Ainsworth. | Printed at Amsterdam, the words and H the music together, Rough-hewn, angular notes, like stones in the wall of a church vard. Darkened and overhung by the run- ning vine of the verses, Such was the book from whose pages she sang the old Puritan an- thems.” i It, was interesting to learn from the lecturer that there are but seven {cdpies of this ancient psalm bock in America today. It was published in | 1612 and was the first psalm book used in New England. Tt was re- placed by the Bay Psalm Book, en- | tirely American, published in 1640. There are two melodies retained to- day from the ancient book, namely, | Old Hundred and the tune we now | call Toulon. The 16th Century Protes- tant church mysic was vivacious and in 17th century people sang psalms in the market places; hymn tunes were used also for love and drink- | inz songs. | The Pilgrims, said Prof. Pratt, | | brought ovér with them music con- | taining great charm and vivacity and which was too good for their follow- ers to keep.
