with the entrance in circular form, about 90 feet back from where the town signpost now stands. There viii be two steps giving a six-foot entrance, above which will rise the granite arch with a clearance of 10 or 12 feet
 The principal point of discussion during the afternoon was about the surplus foliage on the east side of the park. MT. Planning believed that It would be an enhancement to both park and monument to remove some of the trees on the East Main street side. The committee has been approached by numerous citizens relative to this matter Warden Mccarthy favofs it, and it has been decided that every other one must be taken out. There are eight besides the big one on this side, which makes so dense a shade that the sunlight never enters.
 MT. Tanning examined the prints ana color sketches of the monument as proposed by the committee and eX- pressed himself as highly pleased and perfectly satisfied, and could suggest no changes.
 Warden Mccarthy and all the monu- ment committee except MT. Ballou were present all the afternoon. MT Ballou was necessarily absent on ac- count or DuSlneSS m Boston. MT. an - ming entertained the company with many reminiscent tales of his early boyhood, centered about the spot which now marks the park to be established to his generosity to and constant in- terest in his native town.

 vision of David Hale Fanning-Addi-
 tional Gift of Handsome Entrance Arch-Certain Trees to Be Removed.

David Hale Flaming of Worcester was in the borough Wednesday after noon with his surveyor. The park was laid out and a survey made for the granite curb. This curb is to be on the rear. next to St. Mary's church property. and to extend from the front up both North and East Main streets. MT. Tanning now proposes to erect an entrance arch which shall bear on the top the words David Hale Tanning Park.
 A careful geometric survey was made to determine the spot upon which the monument shall he placed. The axis Of the triangle was found and the pivotal center was struck. which is a point 40 feet in front the center of the rear boundary line and 40 feet in from either side curb. Al the intersection of these three lines g stake has been driven and here the monument will stand.
 The park will be fatiron in shape.
