Court General Lawton, F. of A., will round out sixteen years as a fra ternal organization on January 9th and committees have been appointed to arrange for a formal celebration of the anniversary on January 24th in Grange hall.

 Members of the card teams repre- senting the various courts which took part in the recent forty-fve tourna- ment will be invited to attend the celebration and arrangements are being made for their entertainment.
 The Plainville court, while not par ticularly strong from numerical viewpoint, having but forty members, has an excellent financial standing Reports of it's officers show that there is a balance of about $2,000 in the treasury with all bills paid. The or ganization has been fortunate in not having to pay out very large amount for sick and death claims, which &C., counts for the condition of it's ex- chequer. During the sixteen years of it's existence but three of it's members have died, record seldom equalled by organizations of it's size.

 Mrs. Rose A. Russell, who was ap- pointed some time ago conservator over her son, Thomas G. Russell has made application to the probate court to be relieved of the duties and Judge George R. Byington will give hearing on January 7th on the mat ter of again permitting the young man to look after his own affairs.
