Making a survey of conditions, he found that the latch on the rear door had been broken and entrance to the place gained this way. Further investigation revealed that a large quantity of vigars, cigarettes and candies had been stolen. Six big boxes of cigars were among the loot takefi. Although no trace was left by the robbers, Mr. Carson said that in his opinion the culprit is a local man and he thinks he knows who he is inasmuch as a certain person in Kensington has always told Carson that he would “get back at him” sometime. The Confectionery lunch room has been under the management of Car- son for the past five months. It is the only place in Kensington which has a soda fountain. This fountain was recently installed and Carson was glad to find that no damage was done it. He has fixed the establishment up since taking over the management of it and has made it one of the most up-to-date restaurants in town, Camp Cars Entered, ‘What was at figst thought to have been another robbéry by the party or parties who entered the lunch room was the breaking into of two railroad cars.

This was prob- ably dope by some tramp who wanted a night's lodging. The cars were used during the war as sleepers for foreign workers but now are ready. for the Junk heap. ‘ Carter Anniversary First Selectman and Mrs. George B.

Hunger- ford of New Britain, Grand Juror Gwillim and Judge Klett, appeared in behalf of 1IIrs. Edman. Justice Meritt O. Ryder presided. Mr. FEd- man was found not guilty of the charges and acquitted. It was found that the couple had been living to- gether and no grounds for non-sup- port could be ascertained. #Mr. JEd- man is in the trucking business and provides for the support of the fam- ily, it was said.

Selectman Johnson had the tractor at work on Broad street today, at- tached to the scraper and the road was given the usual spring over- hauling. The tractor is the property of C. H. Norton and eliminates the old time slow operation of the horse which had formerly been attached to the scraper. The town hires the tractor. It was used to good effect last year. The town officials were contemplat- ing purchasing one last season and Selectman Johnson went to Hartford and looked some of them over. It is not probable however that one will be bought providing the one of Mr. Norten’s can be hired.

The slides were hand colored and dwelt upon the story, “The Beati- tudes.” Another series entitled, “Sta- tions of the Cross,” were shown. Miss Dorothy Rogers sang with the illumin- ated song service “Calvary,” the piece written by Henry Vaughn and music composed by Paul Rodney. Tani Block Completed The addition to the front of tre Tani block on Whiting stret, a source of much discussion during the past several weeks has becen tompleted. John LeGrandi, local contractor, fin- ished the work The: front has a decided business-like appearance compared to the former old front, which had a low veranda extending along the street.” The stores inside the building have had the fronts extended about seven feet towards the sidewalk and better display space is the result. Larger quarters for stock inside is also provided. The addition had been the bone of contention between of- ficials of the town and the citizens, as many were of the opinfon that 1t shouldn’t have been permitted bed cause it extended further out than the adjoininz building. A survey of the street has been made by Joseph N. McKernan of the Water company and ‘the proper street line located. Now a petition is prepared and cir- culated, to the effect that a building line must be established from: the Neri block to Broad street.
