Mr, North stated that for the $1,- 700 the committee has received plans and detailed specitications - and proposition is now worked up to the point where it would be - ready for bids from: contractors if they were de- sived. ¢ The criticism last year was that the members of the board came be- fore the people in public meeting | without a definite idea of what they wanted.

They came upon them in| Thomaston and the local officers | placed the leaders under arrest. The entire band straightway fol- lowed their captured leader back to Plainville and loud wailing was heard about the streets about 11:30 o'clock when the cavalcade of automobiles arrived at the town court room on Pierce street. Some of the members | of the band called out Attorney| Charles F. Conlon to defend the ac- | cused member and the local lawyer ! proceeded to investigate the case. Nothing could be gained from those | present, and the supposed victim of the wiles of the fortune teller failed to identiy the maid who dispossessed him of his bank roll. He stated that | a certain number plate was on the | care in which she rode away, but the | number or the car was not among those which the police brought back. The outcome of the affair was that the band was shooed out of town and | told not to return, Justice Prior| stated that they were not wanted within the confines of Plainville and | the usual Plainville hospitality ac- | corded strangers would be suspended in their case. Members of the band | showed themselves to be clever in ar- | ging the fine points of the law, and | the quit the town under the watch- | ful eyes of the Plainville police, [ To Burn Mortgage Members of Plainville Grange, past | and present, will hold ohe of their| enjoyable programs this evening at 7 o'clock when the mortgage of the | home of the society will be burned. | The affair will be celebrated in a fit- | 141 West Main street; day or evening were those of 1 ting manner, Supper will be served at | New Votems Made Despite the prediction that there would be a large number of npew voters made in Plainville last Batur- day, only seven applicants appeared to take the oath of elector, Of thiy seven, one was a woman, The bhoard the registrars of voters were on hand all day long, but they were not rushed for business, Ulitorial Writer Here | Miss Florence A, Cowles, editorial | writer on the staff of the Cleveland | “Plain Dealer,” Cleveland, O, is vi ing at her home In Farmington, Mi Cowles has a host of friends in lain- ville who will greet her when she at- [ tends the celebration of the Plainviile | Grange In the burning of the mort- | gage.

Apparently those opposed to the expenditure of the $1,700 did not have the courage of their convictions, Judging from the quiet that reigned all through the mecting. At any rate, the; opposition did a great share of talking outside of the building. Those who did speak showed the greatest spirit of get-together that has been manifested in some time. Claude W. Stevens showed himself in favor of keeping taxes down. quale Giannotta spoke of the roads throughout the town. He advocated that the budget for roads be raised from $9,000 to $10,000, which was seconded by Pardon (. Rickey. Mr. Carter had asked for §10,000, but was given $9,000 on the bhudget. It was also recommended by some of the people present that the salary of the toewn clerk be raised §200 and Frank L.

Two Breaks In System | Employes of the Plainville Water Co., have been put to it the past few days making repairs to two serious hreaks in the system about town.

They could not say whether | the cut in the school expenses of $10,000 would affect the tax rate. | Much depends on the increase to be | shown in the grand list over that of | a year ago. The school report shows the plans of the superintendent as follows: The revislon of rules and regula-| tions so that each and ail connected with the school system may know definitely what are his or her duties.
