He was traveling at a fast rate of spead, it is claimed. A man giving the name of Touhey was arrested in the Blue Hills sec- tion iate last night charged with driving a car while under the influ- ence of intoxicating liquor, The picnic of the Second Congre- gational church of Berlin was held at T.lizabeth park Saturday. Special cars conveyed those who took part in the picnic. About 70 in all attended the picnic and all kinds of games and sports were indulged in. Picnic lunches were brought and when the call for lunch was sent out the young huskies brought smiles to their mothers’ faces with the way they did away with the “eats.”” Prizes were awarded. The youngsters and e¢lders agreed that the picnic had no peer in the an- nals of the church.

Fiske, pastor of the Berlin Congre- gational church, will officiate at the services, Boy Runs Into Auto Alexander Russell, 7 years old, of 27 Union street, Hartford, suffered severe cuts around the head and sev- eral bad body bruises yesterday when he ran into a car which was going in the opposite direction. Mr. Russell was fixing his car by the side of the road when the little fellow ran around the front of the machine and headlong into a car which had stopped to let another pass. The driver was just starting up when his car struck the youngster. The child was treated at the New Britain general hospital, Taxpayers Dissatisfied It is understood that many of the taxpayers of the town are rather dis- satisfied with the taxes they are pay- ing and the return they are getting from the taxes. The total it is claimed when figured up, including the fire and water tax brings the amount to about 30 miils. In return for this they say they have no police protection which could be compared with city police protection and they are forced to pay a tax which is higher than the taxes that the taxpayers in the city are forced to pay. To some of these people it seems hardly the just thing to be forc- ed to pay for fire protection which would in the case of a bad fire, they claim, be as good as nothing at all. In comparing the record of Berlin with the records of similar towns of its size throughout the state they say it will be found to be among the towns paying one of the highest taxes in the state with the least protection, “Old Vets” Have Outing The *Old Vets” of the Berlin Con- struction company who spent the week-end on Long Island returned home after a strenuous week-end spent in battiing with the fish, which it i3 reportad were driven to cover when they heard of the arrival of the Berlin men. Peter Chaponi, party with the idea records, was deeply disappointed when he fould that notice of his coming must have reached the ears of the fish as when Peter scanned the water he did not catch sight of any of them. Clothes Wanted for Near Last. All those having clothes for Near East Relief are asked to bring them to the church not later than Tuesday. It is hoped that this call will be heeded as it is the last that will be issued and a record amount of clothes are expected to be away. Junior League Lawn Party.
