The carrying out of any plan of ac- tion in regard to building on the Cal- ien property was held up due to com- plications in acquiring the property. In order to construct a building that would house the high school pupils as well as the grade pupils of the town for any length of time it would be necessary to erect at least a 14 room school house in the estimation of sev- eral men interested in the prospect. A plan that has been suggested sev- eral timés during the past week is that a piece of property be purchased that has on it already sufficient ac- commodatjons for acring for a num- ber of pupils. Arguments against this proposed plan are that it would cost congiderable money to buy such a plece of property and that it would cost a large sum to fix over such a building to make it fit for use as a school. Dedication of New Organ At the Congregational church to- morrow morning the new crgan which has been prestnted to the church by C. H., Norton will be dedicated. The installation of the organ which has been going on during the past week was completed yesterday. The services tomorrow are to be simple but it is planned to have a recital soon tor which a noted organist will be engaged. . At present there ¥s no regular or- ganist at the church but Earl Bishop of New Britain will play at the serv- lces tomorrow and will continue as organist for a short tiem. ‘The organ is known as a “Steerc organ” and is one of the latest type. M is said to be valued at nearly, $15,- 060, While not an exceptionally large organ it contains more than 100 pipes. All who have heard it are entranced by the sweetness of its tones. “The organ was formerly the prop- erty of the Westminster school in Simsbury ana was purchased from that institutiun by Mr. Norton and 1n- stalled at the expense of the church. Plainville vs. Milldale The Standard Roller Bearing com- pany team will clash with the Mill- dale team I Milldale tomorrow. The Milldale boys have had a very suc- cessful seasen and the local team will have to play a snappy brand of base- ball to defeat them. Tt is understood that when a Plain- ville team plays in Milldale it is neces- sary to play 10 men, and while not making any insinuations many ot those who attended the game in Mill- dale last Sunday expressed their opin-4 fon that some of the decisions were pretty “raw.” Politics Quiet Indications are that the town elecs tions in October will ‘not prove very exciting as up to.the present time neither party has made any notewor- thy move. Efforts to find out Johnson would run again have not proved successful. Neither the repub- lican or democratic parties has set any date for the caucuses, but it fs ex- pected that there will be some an- nouncement to that effect within the uext few days.

Italy, provided no other nation came to the former's aid? Many experts think not long. | Few hours could take the well- equipped Italian navy through the Ionian Sea and into the harbor of Piracus, the defense of Athens, Greek capital. And a few well- direct- ed shots would, these experts think, end the war, Italy’'s peace -strength standing] army consists of 250,000 men. But it has a well-trained, ever-ready re- serve of more than two anfl a quar- ter mlflion men, Its millitary service | is compulsory. . Greek Army. Like Italy, Greece gompels her young men to enter ‘the military service: It commences in the 20th year and lasts for the long period of | 31 years. The normal term in the | active army is three years for “the cavalry and two for the infantry, fol- lowed by 21 years in the first serie of the reserve and eight in the second serie, The approximate strength Greece's army is 200,000 men, But in its reserve are nearly as many thousands as that of Italy. The exact number is not available. | On the sea, Italy can boast ofgthe| following: I'irst line light crulSers, 2 of 16,000 tons; destroyer leaders, 6 of 12,270 tons; first line destroyers, 12 of 11,680 tons; first line subma- rines, 4 of 2600 tons. ‘I'leet subma- rines, none. Greece is far removed from Italy in naval strength. It has but three first- class capital ships. It also has 13 des- troyers, 6 modern torpedo boats, 2 submarines and a variety of miscel- laneous craft. To these have been ad- ded the former Austrian destroyer Ulau, ‘and 7 torpedo boats, now used for police duty. Italy Controls Air Aviation is certain to %lay a big part in any such war. Here again, the Hellenic forces are overwhemingly outnumbered. Italy's active air forces include 37 first-line army and navy squadrons, with 370 first-class fighting planes and 8000 men. Besides this force, there is a large reserve. Owing to the revolution, eote., the Greek aviation strength is woefully weak. The aviation service boasts about 100 officers and less than half that number of planes, many of them of almost obsolete types. GENEVA GETS APPEAL Protest Against Italy's Action is Received by League of Nations. By The Associated I'ress. Geneva, Sept. 1.—The communica- tion from Greece submiting the Greco-Italian crisis to the league of nations was received today at the | league headquarters, thus automati- cally bringing the conflict before the council of the league, which is now in gession The council has been called to meet | at 4 p. m. today to considér the Greek communication, and it pected that the Greek and Italian| representatives will be asked to ap- pear and present their arguments.

All children of Berlin, who expect to-attend the New Britain High school for the 10th, 11th, or 12th years, must take with them a signed certificate from the - secretary ' of the schoel board, Miss Elizabeth Brown of Ken- sington. ‘Miss Mary Griswold, superintendent of schools, may furnish Berlin en- trants with blanks and A. A. North, chairman of the school board, will provide them for the children from East Berlin, > This step’ is in compliance with a new rule in the New Britain High school. The certificates are in reality tuition blanks, which state that the town school board agrees to pay the tuition of the child for one year. 1t was stated by Miss Brown this morning that all desiring blanks ghould make application for them be- fore Saturday, September 8, If child- ren fail to secure the blanks by neg- ligence: to do so, they will be denied admittance to the high school, it was said. 1t is expected that the Berlin schools will follow the example set by the New Britain schools, opening Tuesday morning, September 11. The minimum age limit in the Ber- lin schools this year will be set at six years, Heretofore children have been admitted at five years of ngu4.’[‘he barring of children under six will in a large measure relieve congested conditions it is thought, as there were a large number registered in the schools last year were under age. i ‘!Pn-nws-An Kensingtons The Pirates of New Britain will swoop down on the quiet town pr sington tomorrow afternoon and will fake their headquarters on the Percival avenue field, where they will be met by the All Kensingtons, who will go out to do battle with the in- vaders in aneffort to save the town estruction.
