Curbing Bad Practice Railroad police have issued notice to the effect that children found play ing among the freight cars which are lined along the tracks near the sta- tion will be prosecuted. During the vacation period, it has been the habit of Kensington youngsters t0 make a dangerous playground out of the string of “empties” which line the tracks and in order to avoid serious accidents, the railroad authorities have issued an ultimatum against the practice, Near Accident On Pike What *nearly terminated in the first accident to take place in the construction area on the I'armington avenue route took place this morning at about 10:30 o'clock when the driver of a steam roller operating near the Berlin Auto Sales company stepped down from the cab of the roller directly in front of a Connecti- cut company bus bound for New Britain. Fortunately the driver was rroceeding at a very slow rate of speed over the torn up section and |succceded in jamming on his brakes in time to avoid running down the labsent minded roller operator. After |being nudged by a fender of the bus the construction employe declded that the cab of the roller was the safest section of the highway and bastily scrambled up into his lofty scat again.

Berlin News SELECTMEN CALL VOTERY' MEETING Special Session o Consider Building Lines, School Sites WILL BE HEARD AUGUST 22 Funeral of Dominique Prata Held This Morning From St. Paul's Church—Three Deer Graze Worthington Ridge Property. On Coming as a surprise, the threc selectmen have issued notice for the calling of a special town meeting in the town hall on Monday eve- ning, August 22, at § o'clock day- light saving time. projects to receive consideration is the report of the special committee appointed by the town meeting of 1925 for the investigation of the need of building lines and permit This commission suffered reverses at its etart by the death of two of its members, and since then has been quiet regarding its work. The notice that it has reached a conclu- sion comes as a relief to home own- ers and future builders in this town. Other articles to receive consid- eration at the hands of the voters include the conslderation of a plece of property 132 feet by 82 feet ad- joining the South school, bounded on the north by property of Louis Edelson, on the land of Adam A the west by the South erty. The second article provides that a vote will be taken as to whether or not’the sum of 300 or any portion thereof shall be appro- priated for the purchase of the land and to consider whether a tax shi opr amovitch, and on ‘hool prop- be levied to meet the apy 2 committee of the school board for future expansion plans, concerns a portion of property located on All- ing street, Kensington, and bounded on the norih, east and west by property of Willard 1. Alling, in- cluding about 210 by 815 feet school board has recomment site for the location of a new school buildlng in that district. The sum of $3,800 will be voted on to meet the cost of the lot. and it ehall be decided as to whether or not the town will levy fax to meet the ap- propriation. Both purchases have received the endorsement of the school the first to relieve congested § ground conditions at the South school and to provide the children with adequate space for recreation The second purchase will eventually terminate in the erection of a building, it is thought, to existing conditions in IKensington schools, recently deplored in the fourth annual report of Superinten- dent of Schools Miss Mary E. Gris- wold. i Berlinites are reported strictly in favor of the proposed building line and permit adoption. The voice of the 1925 town meeting, which put the question of the appointment of a commission to investigate the need of building lines and permits was overwhelmingly in favor of the move and as the plan will be gn- tirely self-supporting, if is thought that little opposition will arise Such restrictions would zone the d that town, prohibiting certain b'lildmgs} in certain districts and thereby guaranteeing the tuture homse build- er with restriction from depreciat- ing conditions which might arise in case the town was unrestricted. It » Chief among the cast and south by The | . | were taken of t improve will also, in a large part. curb the extensive building of cheap dwell- ings. The unexpected action of the board of selectmen in calling the town meeting is believed due to the {tact that options on the two Mroper- Ities under consideration by the jschool board would not hold until the regular Octoher town meeting. It is also thought advisablo by the tboard to give the building line pro- position a separate place from the regular annual town meeting in or- |der to allow plenty of debate on the subject instead of including it in the | multitudinous business which clut- |ters up the annual meeting. | Indications are that the special meeting will be well attended, popn- |lar opinion on the zoning restriction |taws being widespread and interest in their adoptions being general move has the support of practically all of the more prominent Ipeople and supporters are confident jthat the building line plan will be adopted Domintque Prata’s Funeral Funeral serviees for Dominique | Prata, who died Monday evening at |liis home on Percival avenue, Ken- sington, from the effects of a shock |suffered a year ago, morning at 9 o'clock at church, Kensington.
