Work will be begun on tae unfinished
section of the state road, as soon as
the frost is out of the ground. The
foundation has been laid Ior the rock
bed and 100 feet is yet to be finished
of this section. Another appropria .ior
may be made, so that BrookilGld\ vii
get some more state road. II so, the
opinion is that some of 1t should be
put near the West BroOkfield line.

The talk of politics still goes merri-
ly on. The present board Of select
men is very strong, and would be ex.
tremely difficult to defeat. But some
Of them must go. There will be only
three members on the board, and nov
there are five. Two should be elected
from this precinct and one from the
east end, to make it fair. At least
this is the opinion Of the majority OF
the voters. The road commissioner al
the East Village is causing some hust-
ling. Read an announcement in an
other paragraph
Most of the repairing is completed at
the Clancy factory. The thing now
longed for Is the cable to transmit the
power from the east end to the west
part, which he intends to use in his
manufacturing. The cable has been
shipped but is side-tracked somewhere
probably near Boston.
