Miss Griswold sent out a request to factory owners and other men employing a large number of foreign | born residents, asking them to iuter- est some of their more intelligent foreign help in the evening school of , Berlin, as this course of study pre- pares best for citizenship and a place | in the American nation. Great Interest was shown in the| school last year and Miss Griswold hopes that the same may be the| case this season.

October 15 will mark the 256th anniversary of the founding of the Trumbull Blectric Mfg. Co. in Plainville and it is expected that the officials of the factory will take due cognizance of the occasion. The announcement of the oceasion contained in the issue of “Inside the Circle” for October and gives a sliort tribute to the men who made the leading manufacturing plant of Plainville a possibility. Twenty-five years ago John and Henry Trumbull started the busi- ness in a small wooden building known as the “Chuck Shop.” A short time later, they were joined by Frank Wheeler. The first prod- uct manufactured in the plant was rosettes, a product in the electrical line. Then were added new lines of porcelain, such as battery switches and these were followed by open knife switches up to 100 amperes. Later on, the knife switches were introduced and then followed the addition of panel and switch boards. A second story was added to the old building, followed by a wing, another addition and finally the first brick - building in which the office is now located. Other addi- tions followed until the present plant was completed. This growth throughout the years of its existence was accomplished without the issue of stocks and bonds and solely through the earn- ings of the company.. This is also remarkable when it is known that the founders of the company were without any great capital when they started and very little in the way of experience. The plant is known far and wide as the producer of one of the finest grades of elec- trical goods in the country. Miscellaneous Shower. A miscellancous shower was ten- dered last evening at the home of Mr, and Mrs..R. G. Hart of East street in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Gesner. About 35 friends of the young couple were present. The color scheme which was pink and blue, was prettily carried out in various ways. During the evening, little Mar- guerite and Marion Hills, attired in dresses of pink and blue, presented Mr. and Mrs. Gesner with a huge basket filled wit a bountiful variety of useful and beautifpl gifts, A buffet lunch was served. Mrs. Ges- ner was Miss Thelma Hart before her marriage which occurred a few weeks ago. The young couple plan to ga housekeeping in the near fu- ture, To Complete Vist The registrars of voters of Plain- ville, Joseph N. McKernan and Peter | F.

Holy Name Mecting The first fall meeting of the Holy Name society of the church of Our Lady of Mercy will be held this eve- ning at 7:30 ‘o'clock gharp in the Leglon post rooms on Whiting strect, Activities for the fall will be discussed and the members are looking forward to a repetition of the good times that were held last season, Important matters will also be discussed at the gathering. To Form Mutual Aid Soclety Employes of the Standard Steel & Bearings, Inc., will meet tonight in the Legion post rooms on Whiting street following the short business meeting of the Holy Name soclety of the church of Our Lady of Mercy, for the purpose of forming a mutual ald and benefit soclety at the plant. The leaders of the movement to form that which will be of benefit to all the employes of the plant, are enthusiastic over the manner in which they regard the organization and they expect a large number to attend, Still In Quandry The selectmen of the town have as yet found no way out of the diffi- culty confronting the use of 'the |election machines or the Australian ballot. There are eight candidates for president and only seven places {on the machine and if all are to be placed on the voting list, the ballot will have to be used. Added Expense, . This will mean the erection of vot- ing booths on the old style which will cost a great deal, also the print- ing of the ballots and the added lielp necessary to’count them. With the adoption of the voting machines, the old ballot booths were done away with and the town is left with- out any ‘equipment which could be used in an emergency of the present making. The only way out of the quandary will be for some of the presidential candidates to be left off and the of- ficials of the town are now studying the laws with regard to the placing of the names on the ballots. There is a question whether it will be found necessary in this state to file |a petition 8o many days before a | stated time and containing a certaln number of names and whether this | has to be accomplished statewise as | well as in the town. At the present time, it appears that the Austratian Lallot will have to be used. Larnest Workers' Class. The Jarnest Workers' class of the M. E. church will give an entertain- ment in the church parlors Satur- day afternoon from 3 to 5 o'clock, the procceds to be given to the Women's loreign Missionary so- ciety. Commerce Chamber Meeting, The October meeting of the Plain- ville Chamber of Commerce will be held this evening at § o'clock in the chamber headquarters on Pierce street. This is expected to be one of the snappiest sessions of the year as there are likely to be fireworks sprung on the meeting tonight. What the details of the interesting sub- jects to be brought up for discus- sion are to be is not known, but among some of the members there is a certain vague surcharged air which promises something inter- esting tonight. v other matters ¢ importanc : to be brought up or action and all members are | urged to attend. There will be no speaker present at the session, as Mr. Titcomb, who { had been engaged to appear at the meeting, is ill and will be unable to attend. The speakers’ committee | was unable to engage ~another in time for th> meeting. Peeper Still Active. The *“Peeper,” that mysterious person who has been troubilng the women and authorities of the town for #8me time past, is still active and a little more insistent in his spying for the past few nights, ac- cording to reports from various sec- tions of the town. He changes his location ‘@ery night and appears in unexpected places. One report has it that he climbed on the roof of a building close to a house and was seen there, but he got away before he was caught. The police have clues to a cerfain well-known man in town and they will follow it down until their suspicions are either A a (Continued dn Page 14) e REGISTRARS NOTICE Notice is hereby given that Registrars of Voters of The Town f Plainville will be in session in he Town Hall, Pierce St, on Tuesday, October 7, 1924, from 9 A.
