Although the majority of factories in Berlin have not as yet decided whether or not they will go anto day light saving next month, ‘t s quite possible that all of the concerns will, as many state that they will “ollow the action taken by the New Rritain mamfacturers In the Hardware Cily it was voted that the factoric 1dopt the daylight saving time, beginning on April 30. Mr. Fritzell, at the Berlin Construc- tion company, stated this morning, in the absence of President Sage, that no definite plans have bheen made, al- though he believes the factory will adopt the daylight saving time. Louis Reynal, at the American Pa- per Goods plant in Kensington, when seen this morning, said that it is not known whether or not the factory will change, but he believes the officials would change the time if the New Britain factories do. The Taper Goods was one of the local factories which adopted the daylight saving plan last vear. The Prentice Manufacturing com- pany of IKcnsington will go into day- light saving time inasmuch as the New Britain factories have decided to do so, according to an announcement made today by George Prentice, pres- ident of the concern. This company has a factory in the neighboring city and was also on daylight saving t year. At the Mosel Manufacturing com- pany on Farmington road no plans have been made to change the time Nothing has been done as yet at the Olmstead and factory in Kensington. Change at Postoflices Because of the fact that the New York, New Haven and Hartford rafl- road company has adopted the day- light saving plan to go into effect on April 30, both the Kensington and Berlin postoflices will change their time to comply with that of the rail- roads. The changes are being made by the postmasters at both of the offices, due to the fact that if the old schedule were retained when mail would arrive in town in the morning, neither of the offices would be open to receive it. Town on Standard Time Selectman George B, Carter stated a few days ago that the town of Der- lin will remain on standard time and he did not know or care what the manufacturing concerns did. It is not known whether or not the schools will go on daylight saving time or re- main on standard for the remainder of the school term. Vancy Dress Ball All is in readiness for the fancy dress ball to be given this evening. It is expected to be the most preten- tious social aTair of the s on. It is being staged under the aupsices of the Worthington community a ciation and will be held in the Grange hall on Damon's hill. The ball is for the general fund for the upkeep of the communty house and grounds. Committees in charge of the event have been work- Thompson ing for the past several weeks to, make it a gala affair and it is hoped that the stormy weather will not kecp the people away. Special attention is called to the fact that while it would be ideal if all rttending this ball come in fancy, col- onial or other costumes, this is not compulsory and everyone is urged to come and participate in the event. Fred 8. Troupe is chairman in charge. He is being assisted capably by other men and women of the community. Major 17, L. Wilcox will be the chief announcer of events and the leader in the grand march. Prizes will be awarded for the best costumes and tor the elimination dance. The judges will be Mrs. Morrison, Dr. T. C. Hodg- son and Miss Fanny Griswold. End of Season Much enthusiasm and interest is being shown in the forthcoming bas- ketball contest at the town hall on Saturday night of this week. At this time the Worthington Athletic club Junior will play the W. A. C. Seniors for the championship of the season. Although the Juniors to date have a naller average than the Seniors they expect to win the game. As this game will wind up the basketball sea- son as far as Beriin is concerned is expected to be the hardest fought game cver played in the town hall, a large crowd is looked forward to. In the deciding game of last year Tuniors defeated the Seniors and re of the belief that it can be done ugain this year. Both teams have excellent records.

Fine for Chest Colds Too and Is Cheaply Made at Home. When you can make, in two min- utes, a world beating remedy that acts directly on the membrane and often overnight causes stubborn coughs and even hard chest colds to | disappear, why trifle with things that will probably disappoint? Hawking and snuffling and also soreness of the mucous membrane go and you will feel fine in almost no time. Just get one ounce of Parmint (double strength) add to it a little pu- gar and enough hot water to make a half pint and you've got an ‘nexpen- sive remedy better than you can buy ready mixed. Its soothing, healing action on the membrane is the reason so many peo- ple use it for Catarrh and acute nasal colds. e _______J FOOLISH WIVES Broke World’s Record 20,466 Persons Attending 429 417—1282 !

The doors of the bank will be thrown open to the publie ror n. spection from 2 until 5 o'clock {n the afternoon and from 7 until 9:30 a'clock in the evening. The officers |and directors of the bank will be in |attendance and act as a reception | committec, The Plainville Trust company, or. ganized in January of 1909, under a Inspection of Huge Vault and| wional Bank charter, has grown pidly and the recent demand for safe deposit boxes made ft necessary to install a huge vault, one of the best equipped in the state, according to the officials of the safe makers. The formal opening of the new building tomorrow marks the milestone !n & successful career covering a period of 13 years. The vault, which took months to in- stall, is thé work of the Mosler Safe company of Boston, Mass. The Vault Itself. The vault itself, weighing 11 tons, is made with a solid steel lining, and measures seven and one-half feet high, eight feet wide and is 12 feet deep. Once this vault is locked, it is the boast of the manufacturers that it cannot be opened, and defies all hu- man attempts to reach the contents therein until the maze of safety de- vices are released by time lock. The vault is able to withstand the most modern of safe crackers who have resorted to the method of using the oxy-acetylene torch, it is said. The walls around the steel vault are 18 inches thick and made of concrete reinforced by a steel rail grille. To chisel through this wall would take hours, and after a hole was large enough to gain access to the steel lin- ing of the vault, it would take a full 24 hours to torch the metal for a small opening. There is a concrete bed protecting the top of the vault, measuring to a depth of 20 inches. This protects the vault in case of falling buildings or a shock from explosions. 'The vault stands free of the floor of the building and thus cannot be attacked from the basement of the bank. The door of the vault is locked by 24 round steel bolts, capable of mil- lions of changes of combinations and claimed to be absolutely undecipher- able. Inside the safe, there is room for 1,200 safe deposit boxes. These are all made of uteel. Officers of Bank. When the bank was first organized in 1909, John H.
