Plainville IVews DEATH RATE HIGH FOR THREE HONTHS 31 Residents Pass Away; 13 During Present Month ADVANCE OVER LAST YEAR Servics is showing in Church Tcmorrow Morn- ing—Martha Rebekah Lodge En- tertainment Monday—Chamber of Commerce Banquet. A review of the vital statistics for the first three months of the year shows that 31 residents of Plainville dled during that period, an increase of more than one third over the cor- responding months of the previous vear, when 20 deaths occurred here. This year's figure is belleved to be the highest recorded here in a num- ber of years. During the presént month, the! mortality rate was exceptionally high, 13 deaths being recorded. ¥rom February 27 to March 7, the | town was hard hit, one death taking place each day in regular succes- sion. During the month of March in 1929 only five residents passed on. Prominent doctors have stated on numerous occasions that the first three months of the year are con- sidered the most unhealthful and that in many cases more deaths take piace in this period than during the other nine months. This condition | is prevalent about the country and is attributed to the constant chanz- | ing of the weather. ] Although many of the deaths ‘n Plainville so far this year have bee among aged residents, a large pev centage of persons under 45 years included. Many of the deaths| vere sudden and the victims in- | cluded prominent men and women | of'the town. Despite the high deati rate, the general health of the town | has been very good so far this year, although there has been a prevalence of hard colds.

McDonald of the Bristol committee yesterday announced that he expected to call a meeting soon, probably next week. Mr. McDonald understands that a recently appoint- cd Plainville board desires to split with Forestville the expensc involved in the construction of a system in its town. The beds, according to re- ports, would be located in Plainville so that sewage could ly gravi- tate to its destination from cither village. The local committee chair- man has deferred action on the pro- posed system because of the indus- trial situation existing at the present time. The Forestville board, at the last public conference held in that town, had three plans in mind. One was the gravitation of sewage into the Plainville beds, the second was grav- {itation into the Plainville trunk line nd the third consisted of a disposal Ly way of auxillary pumping sys- tems into the Iast Bristol beds. The rst named plan, that in which th Plainville officials are deeply inter- ested, is bLelieved by many to bu 1more feasible than the other two. The meeting, Mr. McDonald as- serted, would be held in Plainvilie. | The entire personnel of both boards will be present to thrash the matter cut. ‘Want Slate Roof Following the suggestion of Archi- tect Harold A. Hayden the board of fire commissioners, at a monthly meeting held in the council cham- ber last evening, it was decided to construct the roof of the new Ter- ryville avenue fire house of slate. The architect exhibited a number of blueprints to the commissioners and explained the new building in detail. The matter of installing an oil burning heating system in the building was turned over to the building committee with power to act. Considerable discussion arose at the meeting when the installation of the system was proposed. It was thought that the system would be installed. The cost of the low tigure erecting the station, submitted by will be $13,990, nishings, the slate roof, oil burner and tiled bathroom. George Neubauer Word was received here yesterday f George Neubauer, 82, of 40 High street, one of the very few wood carving contractors of Bristol. Mr. Neubauer died at his winter home in Sarasota, Wlorida, yesterday fol- (lowing a brief iliness. JTe was born in Germany and came to the United States asa youth, settling in New Haven where he learncd the wood carver's trade, e moved to this city about 50 years ago and for many years was a fore- man at the plant of the J. H. Ses- sions Co. on Riverside avenue, later entering into a business of his own as a wood carver. At one time he held a permanent contract with the E. Ingraham Co. for the manufac- ture of all of their cases, which are carved of wood. Mr. Neubauer entered the employ of the Turner Heater Co. in 1§90 and was « stockholder and director of the firm for a period of more than 15 years. He was married many years ago to Miss Carrie E. Sessions, who died about 10 years ago. He was a staunch republican in politics and served for a number of years as burgess of the old town of Bristol. He was also chairman of the street committee at one time. Surviving are a son. William Neubauer of Haddam; and two grandchildren. The Lody will be brought to Bris- tol on Tuesday afternoon. Services will be held at the Prospect Metho- dist church on Wednesday after- noon, followed by burial in West cemetery. Police Board to Meet Tt is believed that definite action on the reinstatment of four suspend- supernumerary officers will be ken when the police commissioners in the council chamber Mon- evening at 0 o'clock. The nes of the suspended men, who na ies to the ef-| the | firm of Joseph D, Devine in e bid. | irrespective of fur- | L.| arc Warren G. Purrington, Frank J. Dougeneck, Jumes Quinlan and Leo Paderewski, will be placed at the end of the supernumerary list, it is sald, and the men will be forced to work themselves to the top rung of the ladder again before promotion to a regular befth. Because of dissatisfaction on the part of ofticers who patrol the For- estville night beat, it is believed that it will be convertéd into a shift beat by the commissioners, each new regular officer working the rounds of the town nightly for about a month at a time. 1t is possible that in the near future two policemen will be assigned to the Forestville beat. One man, Forestville residents claim, is not enough to patrol the town. It is very likely that the resi- dents of the village will petition the council at some future meeting for a second officer. The board may assign Officer | Cornelius Conolly to the newly cs- blished west cnd beat permanently, nd Officer James Burns, who hes I been working at headquarters nights, to motorcycle duty, Chimney Blare The firemen of Squad A were called to the home of James Hodges at 51 Summer street late yesterday afternoon to extinguish a chimney fire.
