The storm of yesterday was a fair example of how conditions are at this place. It is estimated that the work will be finished in two or three days but just what an expense it will be to the town is not known. This is the first time in over ten years that any repairs have been made to this road, with the exception of laying a tew cinders. Men's Lyceum Monday.

PLAINVILLE NEWS APPROPRIATION IS - MADE FOR SEWERS Town Meeting Votes to Expend $4,000 on Whiting Street MILITARY FUNERAL HELD Carter Foundry to Start On Longer Working Schedule Monday—Base- ball Practice Tomorrow—Papen- foth Tendered Party—Other Items, A surface water sewer will be laia | 'n Whiting street from Broad street as far as Washington, the matter hav- ing been discussed and ivoted upon favorably at the town meeting held last night in the Town Hall. The town has appropriated a sum of money not to exceed $4,000 for thae work. It is estimated that about $2,- 500 will be needed for material alone, while the remainder is expected to cover the cost of digging. When tha proposition was brought up at the | meeting last night there was no op- position. Selectman Willlam Johnson sented the resolution. pre- ‘Working con- | ditioms at present will afford the se- | lectmen opportunity to get plenty of employes, it was explained. A force of about 25 or 30 men- will be hired to carry on the work and will prob- ably be in charge of Selectman Ed- ward P. Prior. As soon as the pipe and other material can be secured the excavation will commence. This will be in about three weeks. No outsid- | ers will be hired, providing capable help can be secured in the town. This will aid in solving the unemployment problem which is threatening Plain- ville at present. The laying of the sewer will be an- other step towards making the town a better place to live in inasmuch as the surface water will be drained off the streets and during the spring and winter montns, Whiting street will present a beter appearance, the se- lectmen 'explain. \ Tendered Party Herman A. Papenfoth of New Britain was tendered a . surprise “Variety Shower” ' by 'his office as- sociates at the Trumbull Electric Manufacturing company at the clos- ing hour of the plant this noon. Of- ficials, department heads and all members of the cost department with whom Mr. Papenfoth has in the past worked, Wwere on hand to join in.the merriment at the ap- pointed - hour. . on a pre-arranged absence, the iendly conspirators made the vi- cinity ‘of Mr. Papenfoth’'s desk look like a real country store. Each hcusehold gift was “displayed with an: appropriate ~verse. Among the presents ‘which were displayed for the prospective - bridegroom were a wash tub, a coal hod, a flat iron, a rolling pin, an extensive liné of dish washing equipment and many other implements so apparently suitable that all those present were sure that the future home would be with- out want. Mr. Papenforth is to be married Monday, April 25 to Miss Evangeline Forgotson also of New Britain. Carter Foundry Enlarged. E. T. Carter owner of .the Carter foundry, has issued notices to the employes at his factory who have been idle for the past several weeks, to return to work Monday. The present force is about five men. This will be enlarged to the customary 10. The plant is oqperating on a schedule of an eight hour day with three days a week. Business con- ditions are becoming befter which necessitates the increase of workers, he explains. The foundry has been working during the present depres- sion and although several men were laid off and shorter- houyrs were put into effect, there has en no re- duction in wages, according to the employes. 3 JBaseball Practice Tomorrow. The Plainville Aghletic club will hold practice games at their dia- mond, Allen’s field, tomorrow morn- ing and afternoon. Manager Bailey asks- any persons who wish to try tuting themselves public nuisances by indulging in most audible offensive and insulting remarks and comments in reference to those waiting for the trolley and to passersby. “One of the principal ‘trolley sta- tions in the town which ' is more especially favored than are the other stations by the presence of these in- dividuals has, in consequence, been variously -termed “The B. A. T. Fac- tory,” “The Kensington Zoological Gardens,” ““The Menagerie’’ or “The Zoo" for short. . “Much as an abatement of the nuis- ahce is desirable, it is doubtful if any comment on the situation would be effective in accomplishing this result. Let us hope so, however.” Fast Berlin Items, The services at the Methodist church Sunday are as follows: Morn- ing servicde at 10:45. Clifford F. Dodge will have charge.
