i ™ BRI v, NEWINGTON ] SOCIETY FORMING September 4 I5 Date for Final| Charter Members Newington, Aug. 8.—A long and important meeting of the new New ington Center Improvement socicty was held last evening at the Grange hall. The date of September 4, at which time the next meeting will be held, was sct as the expiration for the receipt of charter memberships. Many residents have joined the or- ganization during the past two weeks and more are expected to do so be- fore the next meeting. The total paid membership now has grown to §1, showing that there is a genuine interest iu such a society at the Center. Officers of the society have many plans for improvements about the town. Last night, Mrs. Jessie H Hollings, corresponding v reported that as a result of a letter sent to the state highway commis- sioner in regard to the post of signs directing motorists to Newington. such a sign has already been erect- ed at Attwood's corner. Tt is ex- pected that another will be placed at the junction of FEast Robbins av- enue and the Berlin turnpike soon. The committee in charge of erect- ing street signs, composed of Samucl Walters, U. G. Avery, and Arthur Olson, reported that posts for the signs have been secured and work on the erection of these will be started immediately. The question ! as to the cost of erection Wi brought up at the meeting and dis cussed at length. The suggestion that a tax be laid on those people who benefit hy the signposts did not meet with approval. Most members were of the opinion that funds should be taken from the treasury It was expected that improvements made will attract new members and thus swell the asury. It wa voted to take the matter of cost up with the Maple Hill Tmprovement society, which has already erected siuch signs, in order to ascertain the best method of covering the cost The constitution and by-laws of the organization e mnow been completed and Robert H. Dray and Leslie Hale appointed a committee to determine the cost of having these printed. The names of the officers and charter members of the socicty will also be included in | such a booklet should it be printed. A report by this committee will be made at the next meeting on Scp- tember 4. see were D. J. Halleran and Edmund Hal- leran of Elm Hill left today on an automobile trip to Canada, S Mr. and Mrs. J.
