Berlin News BLUE HILS LIGATS 10 BE DISCUSSED Property Owoers Will Conler With Utility's Oiclals RATE NOT ~ESTABLISHED Reckless Driving Charge Dismissed ~College Students Return To Studles—Main Street Nearly Fu- ished—Skating Good—Notes. The Connecticut Light and Power Co. will meet the property owners ot the Blue Hill district this weck or next to discuss the petition for lights to be installed in the Blue Hill section of the town. A special mecting will be called which all those interested in the proposition will be invited to attend by the com- - pany. The company has made a thorough survey of each individual house, whose owner is interested in having lights installed, and has drawn up a list of figures covering that particular person’s property. Company officials say that they are very much interested in the project and are confident that the scale of orices they have drawn up will be agreeable to the Bilue Hill residents. At present the company has lights in Kensington, Berlin and East Ber- lin and hopes to add the Blue Hills to its list. Statements made re- cently pointed out that the officials of the company desire too high a price for installing the lights but the company claims that it has not issued a fixed price yet and the price quoted by various owners in town was a great deal in excess of what the company intends to offer the owners. No set price can be offered because the condition of each resi- dence differs, it s said. and, there- fore, each owner will be given the figures covering the cost of his par- ticular house at the special meeting. The petition calls for lights in the PBlue Hills for a stretch of about two miles, which, at the present time, is illuminated by gas lamps and other devices. The lines will be connected to the New Britain wires. Reannounce Examinations Postmaster 8. M.
