PLAINVILLE NEWS TANI TO ALTER BUSINESS BLOCK New Entrance Will B Carried Out to Street WHEELER WILL ADMITTED Ladies’ Auxiliary Reports Heard— Stone Makes Hole School Board in Window— Meeting Tonight— Busy Bee Has New Members. More changes will be seen in the center of the town within a wenk when the Tani block on Wh. ng street, across from the post building is a two-story structure and has three stores on the ground floor, the upper stories being used by ten- ants. 8. Tani purchased the block about six months ago from New Brit- ain parties and had planned extensive changes. Conditions, however, pre- vented him from acting when he so desired, but work has been com- menced today. John Legrandi, a ! local contractor, will have charge of the alterations and expects to com- plete the job in two weeks should weather permit. A veranda which ex- tended to'the sidewalk from the stores has been torn down. It had been used store- keepers. Tani plans to have an en- tire new front, which will extend out to the sidewalk. It will be one story high. There is no building line on that section of Whiting street. The front will be made of wond ‘and new plate glass will replace the old four pane windows. Mr. Tani who conducts a shoe repairing shop, will have two large windows in the new front, instead of one, and the door will be in the center. The Plain- ville Hardware company will have its windows brought forward. This will "give the stores an opportunity for a better display and give more space inside for stock. The Aldridge block, next to the Tani building, will then be farther back from the sidewalk. The build- ings on that side of Whiting street have a ragged appearance as some extend to the sidewalk, while others cannot be seen com:ng from South- ington. The Neri block is out the limit now. Wheeler Will Admitted. Judge of Probate Merritt O. Ryder has given his decision on the contest- ed will of the late Susan Wheeler. It has been admitted to the court of probate and the contents will be dis- 1 office, ' { will have a new front built on it. This tributed as directed. The g part of the estate was willed td Advent Christian church, of whic Mrs. Wheeler was an active member. Mr. and Mrs. Ray Morley have been givien the use of the dwelling on Park street for a period of 10 years. Mrs. Morley is a distant relative of Mrs. Wheeler through marriage in the Wheeler family. She had also taken carc of Mrs. Wheeler during her ill- ness, having lived in the house for some years. After the 10 years have elapsed, the house will become the property of the Advent church. Her automobile was given to Mr. and Mrs. Morley also. Personal effects were | to be distributed among friends and ! relatives. Mrs. Fred Pease was giv- en the residue. It was this part that had been contested by the only two blood relatives of Mrs. Wheeler, Frea Hastings of this town, and Rolfe Hastings of Boston. The contestants claimed that when the will was being ‘Wheeler uncon- assisted. drawn up and signed Mrs. had fallen into periods of sciousness and had to be i Should the Hastings desire to further contest the will, such an appeal must be given within 30 days and it will be hea.d before the superior court. gavi Fortunat; but the resul about what bullet riflieg covered by The po school board held last W held this special nor matters to Cottagy A cottage held tomor: Mrs, Willia will commen! neighbors ary Bus The Busy a meeting la Mrs. Ernest ow road.

Miss Helen Brock and Mrs. Chloe Warren gave their reports on the re- cent tonvention of the Auxiliaries to the American Legion posts, held at Bridgeport, to the members of the Ladies’ Auxiliary of the Brock- Barnes post last night. They had art- tended as delegates. This was the first convention of the Connecticut Women's Auxiliary. One of the lo- cal delegates, Miss Brock, was hon- ored by election as adjutant. Among the resolutions adopted was one for the state to give each disabled soldier a honus of $500, de- ducting any previous amount re- ceived. I‘ was also voted to have the state headquarters established at 114 Pearl street, Hartford. The purpose of the Ladies’ Auxiliary is to aid the American Legion in the same way the Woman's Relief Corps has been aiding the Grand Army. It is hoped that in:time the l.adies’ Auxiliaries will succeed the W. R. C. as one of the greatest women's patriotic or- ganizations in the country. Where- ever there is a post of the American Legion, a Ladies' Auxiliary will be established. This is the aim of the legion and auxiliaries. Governor Lake attended the convention and | addressed the assembly. He encour- aged the women on their new ven- | ture and said, “One woman could put more morale into an army than 40 men.” A short business meeting preceded the reports. The Auxiliary made no definite plans for the future. Stone Breaks Window. The east window in Ryder’'s store at Central Square was broken yes- terday afternoon by a stone flying from under the wheels of an auto- mobile.
