The cleanup campaign was delay- ed this year until the roads were gotten into shape, the early spring condition of the thoroughfares pre- venting the passage of the heavy trucks which will be used in the cleanup campaign. Open Meeting Bolton-Kasica post will hold an open meeting at the town hall on “riday evening, May 20, according 0 a notice received from Adolph . Schultz, chairman of the fire pro- tection committee. Mr., Schultz’s | letter reads as follows: “Several months ago the Ameri- can Legion became alarmed at the number of buildings destroyed by fire | in the town of Berlin. Therefore they appointed a committee to get| information on the cost of a local ! fire department, what apparatus' would be best for the town and also the benefits to be derived by the lowering of the insurance rates. The committee took the matter up with the New England Insurance Ex- change ho recommended certain apparatus for the town, how this should be manned and take care of. If their recommendations are car- ried out they will change the classi- fication of the town and reduce the insurance rates in some ca as much as 50 per cent. The Legion- naires have cxplained the above to as many people as possible but there still seems to be some misunder- standing, thereefore they have de- cided that their next meeting which will be held on Friday evening, May 20, in the town hall, shall be an open mecting and invite all res dents who are intercsted in a fire department to be present to have the plan fully explained to them. “ADOLPH SCHULTZ.

City Council Mecting Tuesday Night—Agnes Genevieve O'Sulli- van Dies at Forestville Home. Pleading not guilty to charges of keeping liquor with intent to sell and reputation in spite of the recom- mendation of her attorneys, Mrs. Adeline Timmerman of 28 Irving street was found guilty by Judge William J. Malone in the police court this morning and a fine of $190 and costs with a suspended jail sentence of 30 days, was imposed. The home of Mrs. Timmerman was visited on the night of April 30 nt Henry Jeglinski and Of- tor Chabot, Thomas Mec- and Lawrence Doolan. A search of the premises revealed five gallons of alleged alcohol in the cellar. John Shantry, whom the po. lice contended was a customer, was found in an intoxicated condition and a pint bottle half full of liquor was taken from him also. When brought to headquarters, Mrs. Tim- merman maintained that she knew nothing of the alcohol being in the cellar and was unable to explain its presence there unless it had been left by a party whom she had had working about the place. Follow- ing her arrest, she employed Attor- ney Noble E. Pierc& but after her refusal to follow his advice, Mr. Pierce withdrew from the case. She next sought the services of Judge S. Russell Mink, who explained to the court that due to Mrs. Timmer- man's “stubborness,” she had also refused to accept his recommenda- tions so that he felt there was lit- tle he could say regarding the case. He did mention that the two cans, containing five gallons, were prac. tically full and that no other liquor was found about the place, except that found in the possession of Shantry and that was of a different color. This was Mrs. Timmerman's sec- ond appearance in court. On March 2, 1927, she was fined $75 and costs by Judge Malone for keeping liq- uor with intent to sell and reputa- tion. James Leaden who appeared at the door seeking admittance while the officers were conducting the raid, was charged with intoxication and a suspended jail sentence of 30 days was imposed in his case. He was also placed on probation for a period of six months. Cases Nolled Stephen Marchuk of 51 Middle street, arrested Sunday afternoon by Motorcycle Policeman Edgar Nor- ton for operating an automobile without a driver's license, explained his case satisfactorily to Prosecut- ing Attorney James T. Mather and the case against him was nolled without costs. Investigation showed that the notice of suspension of Mar- chuk’s license was received by the local police department was in error. The case of John Shantry, charged with intoxication on April 30, was nolled on payment of costs. Shan- try was found in the home of Mrs. Adeline Timmerman of 2§ Irving street when her place was raided by the liquor squad. Strikes Milk Wagon At 5 o'clock Sunday morning, Hubert Simpson of South Washing- ton street, Plainville, while operat- ing his motorcycle along South street, this city, collided with a milk | wagon owned by G. H. Elton, Sev- cral bottles of milk were broken and slight damage done to the wagon.

Malone. An additional charge of operating his motorcycle while under the in- fluence of liquor was dropped by Prosecuting Attorney James T. Mather.
