Your Excellency: I have the hon- or to present to you the keys of this newly completed state armory building, and in doing so I wish to state that the work upon this build- ing has been faithfully and conscien- tiously performed by the various con- tractors employed upon its construc- tion. The building was erected under sev- eral separate contracts. The general contract, consisting of the mason, carpenter and painting work was awarded to the Loucks & Clarke com- pany, and the plumbing work to Pag- nam & Heslin, both being local con- cerns, The amou about colors and plaids, white DEPEND ON PROMPTI-Y total of these two contracts ed to nearly $90,000.00, or ine-tenths of the total appro- | priation.

Mrs. Walter Oldershaw, of West Broad street, was tendered a pleasa ant surprise party at her home last evening by the members of the La- dies’ Benevolent society of the Con gregational church. The party was given in honor of the completion ot 10 years’ service as president of the organization by Mrs. Oldershaw. It also celebrated the 24th wedding an- niversary observance of Mr. and Mrs. Oldershaw. There were 47 gueésts present. Mrs. Hiram Lowry of West Main street, read a poem written by Miss Anna J. Grannis. It was entitled “Compan- ions.” Miss Grannis has written sev- eral poems and hymns. Some of these hymns were sung at the Baptist church services last Sunday evening. Mrs. George L.

Itepresentative Charles Hanson of this town, was instrumental in pass- ing the new bill at the legislature al- lowing persons of 16 years of age, eligible for a motor vehicle drivers’ license. This bill was favorably re- ported in the senate yesterday by the roads, bridges and rivers committee to reduce the age of securing a li- cense from 18 years to 16 years. The fee for an operators’ license has also been increased to $3. Representa- tive Hanson has been doing excellent work in the legislature having been a member of it for only a short period now. This is his first term in the house. Fishing Club Here. Plainville will have the distinction of having a fishing club organized here. Maybe they will catch fish, and maybe they will not. Nevertheless, enthusiastic fishermen are contem- plating on the founding of such an organization and within a short time residents will awaken some morning and find half the population missing and probably adorning the sides of White Oak with line and pole cast into the briny deep. In fact, officers for the new club have been elected. Dr. S. H. Frost has been elected su- perintenent, secretary, treasurer and possibly overseer. A well known res- taurant proprietor, Dan Collins, has been nominated president, vice-presi- dent, assistant secretary and book- keeper. Other elections are forth- coming such as official counter of the fish caught, official man to place worms on the hooks of the ardent fisher boys and one t9 keep an eye open for possible ‘‘Deteckituffs” in case they impose on private property. Most of the trips will be made in automobiles. It is not known how they will return, probably in twos and threes. It is rumored that an- other fish market may be established in the town or at any ratc a stand will be opened next to the soldiers’ monument. Any catch less than 30 pounds will be thrown back into the brook. Each- man must bring his own “refreshments.” Ladies’ Auxiliary Plans. The members of the Ladies’ Auxil- jary to the Brock-Barnes post, Amer- iran Legion, are busy making poppies to be sold en Decoration Day. Some real poppies from France may be received and placed on the graves of the ex-service men of this town. The poppies belng made are an exact reproduction of the ones grown in France. All funds received from the sale of these flowers will be used for auxiliary purposes. Plans are being made for helping the post in the Memorial Day celebration but as yet nothing definite has been .done. The members will probably assist the post in decorating the graves of the fallen heroes. Class Confirmation. A class of 50 children will receive first Holy Communion at the Church of Our Lady of Mercy Sunday morn- ing. Rev. John E. Fay will admin- jster the rites. Pentecost Sunday will be observed at the church "this Sun- day and collections will be taken at all the masses. First high mass will be celebrated at 8 o'clock. Perry—Susa Wedding.
