O. R,\'»’ der at a session of the Plainvi Ie‘ town court last evening, Robert Hird, , Jr., a resident of this town, was, fined $25 and cests on a charge of reckless driving. The charzes brought i against the young man arose out of his alleged execessive speed last Sat- urday night while driving from his home here to Bristol. An officer of the state highway department who happened to be in the city for the purpose of investigating complaints of alleged specding stopped Mr. Hird and preferred charges. The state’s case was presented last evening by Stanley & Cwillim. His motion for a fine in Mr. Hird's case was accepted by the justice after a presentation of the evidence which tended to show that Hird had driven *“at a rate of speed greater than was reasonable and proper having regard for the life, limb and property of persons or things.” Charges brought by the state de- partment against Leupold Skelenger- ber of Torrington, resulted in a con- viction against the accused. How- ever, because of the fact that Skelen- gerber has never appeared previous- ly either in the local or Torrington courts for violation of motor vehicle statutes or ordinances, judgment was suspended in his case. The specific charge brought against the autoist was that he had failed to properly equip his automobile with lenses pre- scribed by the highway and auto- mobile departments. The purpose of the state law, Mr. Gwillim explained, is to protect other autoists from be- ing blinded by lenses not properly rraduated down so as to prevent glare The accused assured the court that he would not take the car out on the highway again without first see- ing to it that the lenses conform to the laws of the state department. The cases were tried at 8 o’clock in the Town Hall room set aside for that purpose. There were a num- ber of spectators. Holy Day Observed. At the Church of Our Lady of Mercy this morning masses were sung at 5:30 and 8 o'clock in observance of the Catholic feast of the Immaculate Con- ception. Dev. John E. Fay, pastor of the church, officiated at the masses. The early mass was sung for the a commodation of those who are re- quired to be about their daily duties at 7 o'clock while the later mass was attended largely by the women of the parish Pleased With Report. Considerable favorable comment is being heard about the town today over the reports of the directors of the Plainville Business and Improvement association, published last evening in the Herald. Of particular interest was the passage relative to work done to curtail speed and motor vehicle vio- P e is able to be out after being confined to his home for several days. Troop No. 1 of the Boy Scouts will meet at the Community house on Fri- day evening of this week. They will be in charge of Scoutmaster Lloyd Minor. , Miscellaneous Shower. A miscellaneous shower was given to Miss Bridgette Pedemont at her home last night in honor of her coi- ing marriage to Peter Angelini of Beckley. Miss Pedemont received many useful gifts. The ceremony will take place December 15 at St Paul's church. A mock marriage took place at the gathering last night. Tretia Venecano was the groom, and Mary Pedemont was the bride. Tretia Saveni was the bridesmaid, and Josephine Pedemont was the best man. Miss Viola Rok- oski performed the ceremony. East Berlin Items The Mothers' Sewing club will meet this evening at the home of Mrs. Frank Potts. Last evening closed the Improve- ment company r for the year, The proceeds for this season will not be so great as those of last year. Never- theless a considerable profit will be realized. The shoulders on the new highway are being rushed to completion and it is expecied that the entire highway will be open to traffic December 15th Guard rails have been placed along the road on both sides for a distance of more than a quarter mile. Churles Stebbins and family are closing their home here for the win- ter and will change their residence to Middletown. R. O. Clark has had a gang of men at work for the past few weeks cut- ting off the wood from the tract of land east of the Hubbard school.

Extra precautions are being taken on acount of the prevalency of diphtheri and scarlet fever. The Boys' Rifle club meets evening at the Methodist church. With the fair over the library membership drive is now on in earnest. There are three more days vet to go and it is the aim of the as- sociation to secure 300 members this season. this lations within the limits of Plainville. ! The first fruits of the work done by | that committee were seen last even- | ing when two violators of molor[ vehicle ordinances were before the | town court and both were convicted. | For some time past the streets of i Plainville have been used as speedways as the list of fataliti and near- fatalities show. In addition other motor vehicle ordinances and statutes are violated daily, making necessary drastic action, in the minds of Plain- villites. The proposition of an “aisle of safety” in the center of the city is meeting with favor. The proposed “aisle” would replace the present silent traffic officer and in addition serve as a means by which autoists might be directed. It s believed that the establishment of ‘'such a conven- ience would tend to decrease the num- ber. of crashes in the center of the city. Food Sale Today. The food sale beingz Teld in one of the vacant stores in the Neri block this afternoon is drawing large atten- dance and the various booths are be- ing liberally patronized. The Ladies’ society of the Christian Advent church, which is in charge of the sale, plans to hold the event over for another day, bringing the affair to a close tomorrow evening. Indications are that a goodly sum will be realized for the work of the church. Mrs. George E. Tyler, wife of Pastor Tyler, is in charge of the sale and has a corps of active workers assisting her. Hospital Facilities. A decision been reached by the board of health commissioners of New Britain to extend the facilities of the new city hospital to the town of Plainville in common with the other towns in this locality. The institution will serve as an isolation hospital. It | is established primarily to combat the epidemic of diphtheria in the Hard- | ware City. As yet Plainville has not i been hard hit by that disease. In the event of an outbreak here it is be- lieved that much could be ¥one to prevent its spread by taking advan- tage. of the facilitics offered in the city hospital. It is the plan of the health depart- ment to charge fees just large enough to cover the expenses of conducting the institution. A maintenance ap- propriation of $2,000 nas already been made and the place will be ready for | patients in about a week, it is believed. Plainville Briefs. The Painville Grange held a meeting last night and .17 candidates were given degrees. The special town meeting will be held tomorrow night at the Town Hall for the purpose of approving the budget for the coming year. The esti- mated expenses are $85,225 which will be introduced for tne discussion of the taxpayers.
