Lik» every other city and town in the country, the interest ir the presiden. tial contest is causing unusual in- terest among the voters and over 90 per cent of the locsl electors are oxpected to vote, Th¥ local interest was clearly seen wten 444 eligible residents of the tovn appeared be- fore the registrars ad the board of selectmen to be mude voters. According to an announcement made this morning by the reistrars of voters, exactly 1702 residents of Berlin are eligble to vote in the coming election. "his is a new fig- ure for the town and leaders of both parties are tonfident that most of them will eyercise their voting | franchise on eleition day. The republica voters of the town cutnumber the Jeffersonians almost 4 to 1 and bming their claims on the results of -he town election, the G. O. P. leaders are predicting that Hoover will sarry the town by an overwhelmicg majority. The repub- licans scored one of their most de- cisive victeries in years at the town election etrly in this month. Each district vent strongly republican, only one democratic candidate on the entre ticket receiving more votes than his republican rival. However it is freely predicted that Gov. ATred Smith will make a better showirg in Berlin than any of the democratic candidates of the town electbn. The increase in the total number of veters renews the old agitation for | votitg machines. On account of the heary voting and because a number of .voterg split their tickets it took ovir three hours to determine the whners in the town election. In sfite of the lack of voting machines it 18 expected that the results of the state and presidential election ~ill be known in & short time as few #plit tickets are expected. Hens it the voting list continues to be ‘enlarged at the rate it increased this year, voting machines will become an absolute necessity.

IT\NAS FUNNY THAT 1 DIDAT G000 BYS TO MER= Orders left with Ray- ' Keeps Night Oficer on Duty PUBLIC SCHOOL HEARING State Education Board to Hold One Here—H. S. Honor Roll—Grange Fair Closes — Church Notices — Cosmopolitan League—Briefs. An effort to place the local jus- and one more in keeping with the system in vogue in surrounding cities is being made by local court bert, night patrolman, and sessions are being held at 9:30 o'clock in the morning instead of at scattered hours throughout the afternoon and evening. Morning courts and the holding of them at a form hour are believed by these officials to offer several advan- tages not only to themselves but to the persons brought before them ed with the results to date. Night sessions have been found to interfere with the duties of Consta- i| ble 8chubert, as they are held dur- ing the hours he is on duty. Fre- quently accident calls have come in while he has been in court and it has been necessary for him to hold up the trial by answering it or to delay action on the call by trying to locate another constable. Under the plan adopted during the past two weeks the night officer is free from court appearances during his duty period and can devote his entire at- tention to patroling and answering such calls as come in. The morning session is in vogue in all city police courts and has been found satisfactory by local au- thorities. One of the cardinal changes effected by the change has been the starting of court at a time which is not only the same each morning but which is rigidly ad- hered to. It is said by court officials that when Justice Frederick Bullen opened a session promptly at 9:30 o'clock last week it was the first time in years that court had begun on time, Tne agitation for a town court was unsuccessful two years ago, when the bill to provide one was de- feated in the state legislature, but another bill is expected to be pre- sented at the coming session of the assembly. In the meantime, the Plainville court officials are sys- tematizing their justice courts and bringing them as near the town court level as they can.
