Fire breaking out in the home of Charles Cannon in East Berlin yester- day afternoon at about 2 o’clock caus- ed no little excitement in that section of the town and it was due to the prompt appearance and the hard work of a bucket brigade that the house was kept from being completely con- sumed. The fire apparently started from an overheated chimney. Mrs. Cannon, who was downstairs, noticed an odor of smoke and upon investigating, found one of the bedrooms filled with it, seeming to come from a' clothes closet. She immediately ‘'summoned help. Residents of the town responded immediately with bucket§ and went upstairs in an attempt to prevent the conflagration from spreading. How- ever, so thick was the smoke that some of the men had to crawl into the room on their hands and knees. Others remained outside the door throwing the water into the room, but getting it everywhere but on the fire, due to the smoke. Finally a window in the room was breken. Some men gained entrance thrdugh it and the smoke drifted out. It was then found that the fire was in the clothes closet of the room amd the attention of the fire fighters was directed there, The fire was finally put out and it was found that the clothes in the closet were ruined. The woodwork in the room was badly charred, besides other damage. Mr. Cannon, who was sick in bed at the time, got up and directed the work. The extent of the damage has not yet been learned. The house is known as the old Scott place and is owned by James E. Cecere of New Britain, The Stanley chemical company's ap- paratus was rushed to the scene and used. Trio Sentenced John Meskinis, Bennie Criskezera and Alex Buinieckas, all of New Brit- ain, appeared in the Berlin town BALTIMORE. WOMAN'S " MESSAGE TO MOTHERS At 820 W, Hayward Ave,, lives Mrs. Henry Johnson, who a few weeks ago wrote what may. be termed a good message to all mothers. She said: “I have used Dr. True's Elixir for more than ten years and know it is good.” She used Dr. Trae's Elixir, the True Family Laxative and Worm Expeller, to rid her children of worms. There is hardly a child but what needs Dr. True's Elixir, for they all usually have worms when growing-up. Mr. Johnson appreciates what Dr. True's Elixir ac- complishes, Your children will be in| better heaith through its use. Symptoms to watch; Constipation, offengive breath, slow fever, bilious- ness, paing in stomach, torigue, swollen upper. lip, starting durisg sleep with troublesome dreams. 40e—60c—$1.20.

White and court last evening, Alex to answer to a charge of driving while under the influence of liquor and the other two to answer to charges of intoxication. However, in the course of the ‘pro- ceedings it was brought out that Ben- nie was the driver of' the car. Ac- cording to a statement of Dr. A, J. Goodwin he had not been under the influence of liquor to a great extent and his case was nolled on that count, However, he was charged with driving recklessly and was sentenced to 30 days in jail. Alex and John were sen- tenced to seven days each for being drunk. All appealed to the next ses- sion of the superior court. Alex, it was stated, was the driver of the car and had been driving, but at the time of the arrest was in the back seat resting. Judge Griswold was of the opinion that Alex and John should share in the responsibil- ity and so fined them. The court case grew out of an ac- cident on the Swamp Road on Sep- tember 16. The three men in the car smashed into a Ford going in the op- posite direction and forced it into the ditch. Henry Byslewicz of Middletown, was fined $10 and costs for driving without lights. He was arrested on August 30, it being the second time that he was caught without any llghls on his car. Several other cases were scheduled.| to appear, but the men did not show up. " Pratt Kline of New York city forfeited a bond of $100 by his non- appearance, May Have Fire Dept. The talk among residents of the Kenton Hill district now turns in the direction of a fire department. It has been said that this would be an ex- cellent thing for the district, since there are so many houses in that sec- tion and should a fire break out in any ot them it would be consumed before the arrival of an out of town depart- ment. What is being talked up now is the purchase of a length of hose which can be attached to a hydrant, should the need arise, and can be used to keep the fire down until help arrives from New Britain or other reighboring cities. This step has been talked of for some time and it is be- lieved that it is a step in the right direction, should 1t be carried out. The Kenton Hill district takes in the Percival school, the two Kensington churches and ahout 25 private houses, which would be in danger should a fire break out. Thus, the residents are beginning to awake to the fact that something should be done to keep the loss from fire at a minimum. Durkee Is Improved James H. Durkee of the south end of town, who suffered injuries some time ago when a wagon which he was driving was struck by a truck owned by A. C.

They complain that so much noise is thus created that they have been awakened from their sieep.

First Selectman Johnson has ordered Officer Furrey to investigate the mat- ter and stop the practice.
