The town of Stonington is planning to take advantage of the state aid for public highways January 20, being the last day this year that the town can apply" for aid and for that reason a summops for a town meeting has been issued for January 19, to see what the citizens want to do about the ap- propriation by the town for the ask- ing. The town of Stonington is entitled to $15,000 for the purvose of building trunk line roads within the town. This is made by the state on the request of the town, and the statement that it will put one-quarter of the total amount, $20,000, with the state. To secure the $15,000 from the state the town must spend only $5000. The state will take charge of the building of the roads andafter they are built will take over the control of the road and repairs. If the town takes advan- tage of this, the trunk line from Grot- on to Westerly will probably be un- der way and finished in about three years. The state will then take over the care of the road from Westerly to Mystic, which is the main road of the town and will mean a saving of ex- pense, Besides the highway matter, the vo- ters will be asked to appropriate a sum of money for the erection of a laundry and a vegetable cellar at the town farm, Effects of Monday's Storm.
