Committeeman Butler of the New Britain board has compiled lists to show out of town student in New Britain schools. Many Berlin students attend New Britain high school, his report shows, Berlin being the heavi. est contributor of the surrounding towns. Approximately 15 Berlin pu- pils will graduate with the class of 1927 but on the other hand a class from the Kensington grammar school outnumbering the class of graduates will enter the high achool next year. Butler's arguments for the exclu- sion of out of town students includes the question as to why the New Britain board should erect & new Ligh school with its attendant cost while the surrounding towns swamp the school with grammar school graduates. The tuition fee of $200 a year which the town pays te the New Britain authorities for each pupil is termed not sufficlent to off- set the disirability of relleving exist- ing congrestion and postponing the erection of the new high school. The local school board, while it is believed that it is following the ac- tivities of the New Britain board with interest, has issued no state- ment regarding its intentions in case exclusion is adopted. It is generally believed throughout the town, how- ever, that Berlin will necessarily have to follow Plainville's footsteps and erect its own high school soon. The question has many supporters, a large number of residents claim- ing that the construction of a high school in this town would create a community spirit which is missing to a great degree at present. The ne- cessity of sending Berlin's older stu- dents to surrounding citles has for a long time been the first step in the separation of the resident from the community, they claim. School spirit, high school athletics and other local scholastic activities have more value, it is claimed, in the growth and welfare of a community than is apparent at first glance. To Attend Reunion Rev. Mr. Samuel A. Iliske, pastor of the Berlin Congregational church. will leave tomorrow morning to at- tend the 30th reunion of his class at Ambherst college, Amherst, Mass., returning next week. During his absence Rev. Roscoe Nelson of Windsor, will occupy the pulpit at the loca) pastorate.

Wilcox of Worthington ridge. Mid-Week Service The regular mid-week services of the Kensington Methodist church will be held this evening at 7:30 o'clock. Rev. May B.

Plan For School Nurse An item calling for a school nurse is in the tentative budget of the !school committee and will come be- fore that body at its meeting in July {or August, and it is possible that a nurse may be added to the roster ot | [the school department mext year. This, would allow the district nurse to devote her whole time to bedside and clinical work. Sentiment appears to be divided | on the matter. Many feel that there is a need for a school nurse, while | others say that the expense will be | too great, especially since it will be {added to an already enlarged school | budget. Leon C.
