Berlin News CONSTRUCTICN IS HALTED BY STRIKE Ditch Diggers Refuse to Continue at Work WANT 30 CENTS PER HOUR Grange Program for This Evening— Workmen Strike This Morning— Evening School to Open Soon— Party to Henry Mildrum. Progress on the water mains which are being laid in Kensington by the Driscoll Construction company was stopped at about 10 o'clock this morning when the gang of about 20 workmen struck for higher wages. The men protested that those working on the mains in the town of Berlin are receiving 50 cents an hour, while those working on the Kensing- ton system are receiving only 40 cents. The men entered a request that they be paid the same as their colleagues employed on the Berlin street construction work. Their re- qguest was not granted, but they were oftered 4712 cents per hour, which they refused. They quit immediately | and returned to New Britain. The reason given for their demand was that there was too much water in the ditches which they were dig- ging. The quantity of mud and water in the ditches sometimes neces- sitated the wearing of hip boots and even then the men Were smeared with the thick clay. Furthermore, they said that they needed more money, as winter is coming on and there is not much work of that sort then. Whether or not the demands of the men will be granted has not been de- cided, but the men say that they will not go back unless given 50 cents an hour., Tomorrow is pay day and it is expected the difficulty will be froned out when the men report for their money. Evening School to Open The Berlin night school will begin | {ts regular sesslons next week, it wus Jearned today.

Elementary work will be taught American laws explained and an ef-| fort made to have the older people understand life, language and history | of the United States thoroughly and to enable them to take part in the government. The second class will be a continu- ation class for boys and girls between the ages of 14 to 16, who are em- ployed during the day and are unable to attend school. This class will in- clude work covered by the seventh and elghth grades in public day, schools. It will also be as thorough in every way. | Last year there were 58 in the eve- | ning classes, with an average attend- | ance of 24. The attendance of the continuation classes was better last, seascn than that of the adult classes, | either because the adults were con- | tinually leaving town or because of | household duties. Last year 80 per cent of the total attendance were un- | der 21 years of age. The younger! generation of foreign-born people seems more anxious to learn English than the older ones. Budget l'or Next Year Read. A public meeting of the finance board was held last evening in the town hall. Despite expectations, there were but two women and a | mere handful of men present. It was expected that there would be some lively opposition to the new budget, but everything remained calm during the meeting and the host of objec- tions failed to put in an appearance. 14ftle opposition was registered and but a few questions were asked re- | garding the school budget. The new voters, the women, do not seem very | anxious to participate in town affairs, | | Judging by the showing made last| evening. Grange Arrange Fine Program.

Plainville News 00D FELLOWS PLAN T0 ENLARGE HALLS Will Add to Present Building and Alter Front WOULD COST ABOUT $14,000 |Sewer Commiittee Meets and Discusses Possibility of System in Town, Plan to Display Map of Proposed Districts, At the recent meeting of Sequassen lodge, I. O. O. F., plans were dis- cussed for adding about 30 feet in the rear of the present building on West Main street and enlarging the meet- ing halls on the second and third floors of the place. Max Unkelbach of New Britain has submitted several sketches in regards ‘to the proposed changes and it is estimated that with a new front on the building, and the addition on the rear, the sum of ap- proximately $18,000 will be spent. A committee was elected to devise ways and means of raizing the money for the work and they are President R. J. Coe, A. A. Mcleod, Harry Bon- ney, Mr. Aspinall and Mr. Raymond, The plans submitted hy Mr, Un- kelbach show but few changes on the first floor which is now occupied by the Prior Drug store and W. J. Simpson, grocer. There will, however, be a stairway in the back of the drug store leading to the driveway The rest of the space of the 30 foot addition would allow for a room 20 by 30 feet which the directors of the club feel could be used for a storage room and may be rented out. The second floor will undergo a radical change inasmuch as the 30- foot addition would be made into a {banquet hall and do away with the one now on the third floor. The kitchen would be {n the corner near the stairway adn a toilet room would the stairway and a toilet room now is. A section on the right hand side of the stairway would be used as an office. This would provide for the Plainville. Water company, now oc- cflpying space on the ond floor, with one more room and give them larger quarters. The other side of the hall would be enlarged for the Chamber of Commerce to meet and provide for a larger place than they now occupy on the second floor in the building. The third floor, which is used by the Sequassen lodge as a meeting place, the Knights of Pythias, Pythian Sisters, The [Foresters of America and the Martha Rebekah lodge as well as the Sequassen club, will undergo some changes. At the present time there are two small ante-rooms, a banquet hall, kitchen and the large hall where the meetings are held. All these rooms will be made into one great hall and the walls separat- ing the sections will be torn down. That will provide for a room large enough to accommodate the lodge members and other associations dur- ing various affairs. Sequassen lodge holds events every season and the need of a larger hall has been seen for some time. It takes but a small crowd to fill the present hall as many of the Plainville people know having attended affairs there. The present stairway would still be there and it is planned to have one running straight from every floor. There would be a dressing room on the northwest corner of the hall about 16 by 18 feet. It is the architects idea to have the two ante rooms worked tnto dressing rooms and allow for a locker room directly in back of the stalrcase. Mr. Unklebach has suggested an- other change to the lodge members ind that is of altering the front of the building. This constitutes a hrick veneer on the front of the place and changing the heads and cir- cular windows, working in a small or- namental window. On the first floor of the building, a new store front would be erected for the drug and grocery stores which would he practically glass up to the level of the second floor. A small roof would put over that section The lodge property runs over to the curb now and if the Town Plan com- mission establishes a four foot bui'd- ing line on West Main street, which they are now considering, it would bring the building back four foot to the curb line and allow for a wide space in front on the sidewalk. Mr. Unkelbach suggested that the first thing to do would be to fix up the front of the building and make a suitable looking place. He reasoned that it would increase the value of it considerably. The estimated cost of changing the front with veneered hrick and new store fronts has been placed at $2,500. The members of the lodge were very much in favor of altering the front of the building. Harry Bonney, speaking to the| members on the proposition, felt that the lodge should do something such as they have in mind and modernize the place.s IHe felt that the lodge could then bring in visitors from all parts of the state and be able to ac- commodate them better than at the be effort to get enough to make up the deficit, Mr, Aspinwall made a mo- tion that the committee be empower ed to ralse the sum of $21,000 which would not only include the addition in the rear of the building, but the proposed front. Chairman Coe wili instruet the architect to complete the drawings he has submitted, have them blue printed, specifications made, al terations shown, and then advertise | for bids on the work. In case the plans go through, and the proposition & carried out, the new hall on the third floor of the huilding will be one of the largest in the town and be a suitable place for dances, falrs and other events which are now held at the Grange hall or Community theater. The lodge figures on some remuneration from that source which will repay them partially for the ex- penses incurred in the improvements Tendered Party Miss Rachael Smith, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Pearl Smith of 43 Broad street, was tendered a surprise party at her home last night, the occasion being in honor of her birthday. There were about 20 of her friends in at tendance. A buffet lunch was served VMiss Smith is a student at the New Britain High school. Sewer Committee Mceets The Plainville sanitary and sewer district committee held 4 meeting last night at the town hall when the prospects of installing a sewage nys- tem in the town was discussed. The map, showing the various low and high lands of Plainville was gone over and it was decided to have some photographs of the map made in or- der to place them bhefore the towns- people that they may get a hetter idea | of the situation in regards to instal- ling a sewer. Chairman Frank T Wheeler made this suggestion today of displaying the map photos inas- much as the map is so large that it would be hard to properly show it in a public place. Investigation of the map shows that at the section near Prior's Drug store on West Main street, it is the lowest spot in town. This makes it hard for installing a sewer on account of the drainage being required to go up hill as it goes to the outskirts of the town. There are several low places Plainville near the center while the outskirts, which really should be low for a good sewer The town seems to rest in a little val- ley. The committee will discuss the matter at later meetings. Mass Friday A month's mind mass of requiem will be held at 8 o'clock Friday morn- ing at the Church of Our**Fady of Mercy for the late Miss Anna Prior. On Thursday evening, there will be a meeting of the Holy Name society at 7:30 o'clock at the church hall. Ali members have been requested to at- tend as plans for the fall and winter activities will be discussed. The society plans to have an active season this year and a program will be outlined for various entertain ments.
