The water committee of the Worth- ington Fire district will meet on Wed- nesday evening of this week at § o'clock at the home of George Prentice on Berlin street. Bryon H. Atwater is ‘chairman of the committee and } Dr. T. €. Hodgson and George Priy tice to aid him. Thg meeting has been called to take action on the new water stem to be installed in this town soon. This is the first meeting of the com- mittee to be held in some time and was called as a result of the action which was recently taken by the Ken- sington Fire district. Mr. Atwater stated this morning that no definite plans have been made by the com- mittee in regard to bringing water to this town and he saw no reason for calling a special meeting of the district at the present time. The members of the Kensington dis- trict is having that section of the town surveyed preparatory to installing wa- tér mains. Plans to have surveyors go over the Worthington district will be dis sed at the meeting tomorrow evening. It has recently been learned that the Kensington district will prob- ably await the action of the Worth- ington distr following the survey, inasmuch as a larger water main will have to be laid through Kensington if the Worthington people decide to have water. . s of old, the water question has again brought forth many: remarks from the various citizens in this town. Aithough the Worthington district was the first at any of its meetings to start agitation for water, it Is said by many that the residents of Kensington are more eager for it. The reason for the eagerness is displayed in the fact that a large number of residents in the Derlin street district have installed expensive well pumping systems in their homes whi¢h they do not plan to take out and connect with the city water. In Kensington this has not been done to such a large extent and it is believed that more people will be willing to have the water installed. No member of either the Kensing- ton or Worthington district feels as though they could give an estimate of what the job is going to cost the groups. Some are opposed to the heavy expense which they believe will be incurred while others are willing to pay to see the improvement made. Boost to Town There is no doubt in the minds of any citizens but what the water will be a decided improvement and gain to Berlin and Kensington. As town au- thorities have stated before, there have been several manufacturing con- cerns which have wanted to build in town but duc to the faét that Berlin did mot have running water they would no do so. Others feel that although every res- Ident of the town will not have water put into his home the installing of such will be a great aid to the town in the way of providing for a fire de- sartment of some nature. Berlin, with- n the past few year3, has had several e being that of the Donnelly Brick com- wany in Kensington. It has been nec- essary to call on the New Britain firc department to aid and this is an added expense to the town by which nothing is gained. If the money was spent in a local department more would be ealized, it is believed. The schools and other public places would also be greatly benefited inas- much as the pressure would be great- er and water could be casily obtained on the third and fourth floor of build- ings whereas at present it is difficult to draw water above the second floor. Town Farm Committec The gommittee which was appoint- ed to investigate the sale and dis- posal of the town farm will meet on Thursday evening 4t the ofice of the town clerk at 8§ o'clock. This session has been called by Selectman George Carter who feels that definite action should be taken by the committee in the matter. Mr. Carter in accordance with hundreds of other residents of the town does not think that the farm should be sald at the present time and is in hopes that a final vote will be taken Thursday night. Blue Rills Team Defeated. The well known Blue Hill set-back team went down to defeat for the first time in five years at the hands of Judge William Mangan's team of New Britain last evening.

There are ap- proximately 900 of the feminine sex in Plainville who will have to pay for the privilege of voting. Giles Cowles and Philip Moreno took the census of the town and found about 2,100 who are eligible to pay the tax. However, out of this number, there is a large 1ist of those who are exempt through service or other channels. It has heen figured out roughly that of the 2,100 there will be about 1,750 eligi- hle to pay. Mr. Moreno found that there are 275 Italian families living in Plain- ville and of these, 310 must pay per- sonal taxes. That includes the women from the age of 21 to 60. While on his rounds taking the census, his ex- planations to the foreigners regard- | ations except the few definitely sup- Its End s Seen as Parliament Again Convenes London, Feb. 7.—(By Assoclated Press.)—The approaching end of the coalition government which has con- olled Great Britain's destinies since arly In the war was seen in the re- assembling of parliament The newspapers of all party affili- porting the government, for a long time have, heen cudgeling the admin- {stration for its alleged delinquencies cach party organ having its own grounds for attack., Charges of ex- travagance and failure to grapple with the question of national ccon- omy were among the foremost, while others arose from the discontent re- garding Treland, the employment sit- uation and several minor matters.

In addition, the conference, so far as its naval negotiations are concern- ed, provided virtually for its rebirth eight years hence, when representa- tives of the five p rs which joined in the naval azr*nt will meet again to discuss na armament, and it also authorized specifically a five power commission to revise the rules of warfare. The only directly continuing func- tion of the conference remaining after its windup was the secretariat-gen- eral's office. This has been charged merely with the final duty of compil- ing and printing corrected minutes of the plehary and committee sessions and also will act as a clearing house through which the various govern- ments will inform each other fully as to their existing commitments af- fecting China.
