William Bulkeley will complete his 39th year as president of the Berlin| Savings bank on Wednesday of this week, the day after he observes his 93rd birthday anniversary. Mr. Bulkeley is now considered to be the oldest llving resident in DBerlin and has resided in this town practically all of his lifetime. He has always been interested in the activities of the town and during his younger years was active politic- ally, holding many town and state offices. It is believed that Mr. Bulke- ley holds the record for serving 20 years continuously as town clerk of Berlin. He was elected to the office of town clerk in 1886 and served until Janu- ary 1, 1907, Mr. Bulkeley was also tax collector at one time and on an- other occasion was registrar of voters. Mr. Bulkeley has the distinction of being one of the few men living today who served in the legislature for a term of years shortly after the Civil war. He was also re-elected to serve as representative from Berlin about 15 years ago. In July 1893, at the annual meet- ing of the incorporators of the Berlin Savings bank, Willlam Bulkeley was elected as-president of the organi tion and has held the position since that time. = He will complete his 39th year as president on Wednesday of this week when the bank incorpora- tors will meet for their annual meeting. Mr. Bulkeley has lived in the white house at the foot of the Kast Berlin hill on the right side of the road, most all of his life, his parents having moved into the place when he was a youngster. After his father had es- tablished himself in Berlin he started a tinsmith business in a small shop in the rear of his home. . For many years Mr. Bulkeley aided his father in this business and he says that he remembers it is not so many vears ago that he gave up in- terest in the business. Mr. Bulkeley is considered to be very active for a man of his years and ranv be seen most any day g'n!ng_m‘ the trolley car at the top of the ha_m Berlin hill on his way to the bank in Kensington or to do some shopping fn vew Britain. B }:,rrlnw Markers Are Placed Charles R. Hale, of Hartford, has completed the placing of about 40 marble slab markers at the head of the graves of as many soldiers ‘who fought in the Revolutionary, Civil, War of 1812, Spanish American and the late Wwrid War, the slabs being furnished by the state of Connecti- cut. The work is being done as the re- sult of a communication read hefore a town meeting held in the fall of 1921 which stated that the legisiature tor 1910 had passed a hill which would place markers on the graves of any soldier.who had fought in any of the wars without any expense to the town. MNr. Hale, of aHrtford, wrote Major F. L. Wilcox of this town to the effect that he would be willing to look up the names of soldieya who had been burried in any local cemeteries and place the markers over their graves The work was started some time agn and it will be several weeks before it will be completed. The markers are about three feet In height and bear the name of the| soldier, the company and regiment he served with‘as well as the date of his death and his age. Mr. Hale has discovered the names of 43 men who served in the Revolutionary war and are buried in local cemeteries. There are many others from the later wars In the Wilcox cemetery in FEast Berlin the following soldiers from the Revolutionary war are buried: Live North, Elisha Savage, Seth Savage, Selah Savage, Ephriam Crofut, Jacob Wilcox, Johiah Wilcox, Samuel Gal- pin and Solomon Sage. The following is a list of the ceme- teries in Berlin in which veterans of all wars are buried: Maple, Berlin; Wilcox, East Berlin; Beckley, Beck- ley; West Lane, Kensington; Stock- ings Corner, Kensington; Dunham, Kensington; Bridge, Berlin; Christian Lane, Berlin. Mr, Hale expects to have all work compieted in the local cemeteries within a few weeks' time. Detour Is Necessary A section of the highway between Berlin and Meriden is closed to traf- fic in the day time because it is un- dergoing repairs and it is necessary for vehicles to travel via the old high- way past the Mueller farm. The main road, however, is open to traffic at night time, The highway department is placing a coating of tar over a large section of the cement road hetween this town and Meriden. There are many auto- ists, however, who feel that the ce- ment road {s better to drive on than a tar one and do not like the over coating.

CLERGYMEN WILL DISTRIBUTE WINE Manufacture of Pure Product Will Be Supervised By Heads of Churches Hereafter July 17.—Rabbis, ministers and priests, appointed by the heads of the ecclesiastical juris- dictions of their churches, may su- pervise the manufacture and distr bution of altar wines in their spec fled territories. under new regulations considered last night by Revenue Commissioner Blair in accordance with an opinion by Attorney-General Daugherty. The natignal prohibition act, Mr Daugherty held, indicated an inten- tion on the part of congress to place in the hands of the church itself a power whereby it will never be forced to use inferior products for sacrament nor ever be left without means of supplylng its needs for sacramental wines, “The intent of congress is clear. the atiorney-general said, “'to abol the business of the middleman or re tall distributor in sacramental wines, but the intent is equally apparent to permit the church, if It agrees to as- sume the responsibility through duly authorized rabbi, minister priest, full power to super\ise manufacture of altar wines, and it my opinion that the specific grant of the greater privilége of the supervi- sion of manufacture carries with it the lesser privilege of supervision of distribution."
