The prizes were silver cupa and arc now on disp in the Nerl Brothers' confessionery store at Cen- tral square. There w 18 corps par- ticipating in the competition and the fact that the local band was capable of winning two first prizes speaks well for their ability to master the drums , and fife: There was a contest be- tween Plainville and Farmington for best ancient playing and this re- viired th exhibitions of skill. The ‘] first two were regarded by the judges { as a deadlock with a perfect 110 beats | to the minute. On the third time, | however, rmingion missed one beat | and the local men were running smooth. The Plainville Fife and Drum corps i3 known all over the state for per- fect playing and in their new uni- forms, purchased last season, make an cxcellent appearance. They have cap- tured several prizes at various meets. It is probable that in *he near future, the Neri brothers will make a display in their windov of the entire collec- fion of these awards The local corps is composed of the following men: Drummers, Addi- son Smith, Arthur Robert { Spencer, Otis Williams, John Stewart and George Buys; Fred Stewart, Cornelius Buy Buys, Thomas Royce, Earl Stewart. nk Gilbert is drum major.

Directl in front of him was an Overland touring car: driven by Mrs. Gillis.
