B. DRIVER FINED $25.00 Two Boys Reprimanded by Judge For Gambling—Examination for Post- mastership is Still Open—Chautau- qua Notes—Berlin Items. F. L. Norton, president of the Ken- sington fire district, announced this morning that the next meeting of the district will be held at Forester’s hall in Kersington on Friday evening, Sep- tember 2. All members are urged to attend this meeting as there is a large amount of business to be transacted before tht winter months set in. The greatest question of the day in Kensington is that of having street lights. Arguments upon argumenti have been heard on all sides relativa to stroet lights and some have appear- ed in this column for and against tha proposition. Rev. J. C. Brennan of St. Paul's church is highly in favor of the town having street lights and he ia backed by a large number of local residents. Father Brepnan has al- wa. heen a staunch supporter of tha movement for a better lighting sys- tem for the town of Kensington. When Father Prennan first moved into Ken- sington me vears ago. there wera no lights in the town and arrange- ments were completed with the Ameri- can Paper Goods and some few indi- viduals for lights, those still being in place in this town. By this arrange- ment a certain sum of money was to be paid the American Paper Goods each year for the upkeep of the lights. This was done for a few vears by all those first interested. Later some of the people bekan to drop out until today there aro but a few who ara paying. The system now used is not adequate enough for the town. The Connecticut Light and Power company of New Britain waas asked by the Kensington fire district to look the town over and give an estimate of what they thought the district could be lighted for. At the last meeting of the district the figures of the New Britain concern were thought to be toe high Mr. Norton stated this morning that the same company has reed to give Kensington 60 lighty at a cost of $30 a light. Other matters to be discussed at the meeting will be the levying of a tax to pay for the lights if favorable ac- tion is taken on the proposition. Noth- ing will be done in regards to side- walks at this meeting as the members feel that if the lighting question is thoroughly discusseq and favorably acted \upon, the district will have enough to attend to without the side walks. Court Last Night. Frank A. Spitcel of New Britain was fined $ and costs in the Berlin town court last night by Judge Griswold, on a charge of reckless driving. It was claimed that Spitcel struck Carl Mil- ler on Farmington road near the fair grounds one week ago. Two New Britain lads also appeared before the judge in the juvenile court on the charge of gambling. The ar- vest was made t Sunday by Officer given a talking to by the judge and allowed to go. They were warned, however, not to be found doing the same deed again. E. T. Canfield of Hartford, who was arrested by the state police Sunday af- ternoou for driving while under the influence of liquor and who collided with two other machines on the turn- pike near Meriden, will appear in court at a date after Labor Day and not this evening as previously stated. The motor vehicle department will have several cases to come before the Jjudge tonight at 7:45 o'clock. Examination Still Open. The examination is still open for a fourth-class postmaster at Berlin. As far as can be learned, no one has as vet applied for an application blank and the date set for the examination to be held in New Britain is Septem- ber 3. Berlin P. O. Notes. Postmaster Barrett at the Berlin postoffice stated this morning that there are about 200 people served daily by the rural delivery frdm that office and about 200 persons call for their mail. Mr. Barrett also stated that the reason the Berlin postoffice does not do as much business as the Kensing- ton office is due to the fact that therc are not factories in Berlin which send There will be the regular weekly bible class meeting at St. Gabriel’s church Thursday evening followed by choir rehearsal.

Reports from the various commit- tees on tickets for the chautauqua indicate that the sale to date has been very good. The drive on selling tickets has only been going in for the past two days and will continue until the chautauqua arrives in town on next Tuesday. All persons who can are urged to buy season tickets. The children are also urged to purchase the junior tickets which wlll entitle them to the full privileges of th department, to be in charge of a competent director. Irving J. Whit- side, president of the Community Chautauquas hopes to make chautau- qua an annual affair in Berlin and re- quests the local people to sell the limited amount of season tickets. The program for the first day will open at 7 o'clock in the evening with the Junior Chautauqua events.
