| B x IIs Investigation committee for it's work and that it should be paid the SEQ l due it.
 concerning the payment of the $50 to the committee, which has been the | bone of contention since the last ad- journed meeting, Mr. Gibney said that there was question in the minds of the board of selectmen whether the , money should be paid After a con 5 ferencas with the town attorney they had been advised not to pay If they did so they would be responsible for the money.
 MT. Woods wanted to know wheth CT the new system of bookkeeping had been introduced in the town as had been ordered.
 Selectman Gibney answered that ]. this had not been done. The reason BhG exp}ained was not in defiance of the avnte takeH at the town meeting Sbut tx partly in ignorance xand partly through misunderstanding.
 It is the intent to have the system started at he commencement of a new year, which in Berlin is Septem- Der 10. The officials did not wish to have the system of the past year mixed up with the new one.
 MT Dean wanted to know if the printing bills for the town, reports had been paid Town Clerk Shaw answered that as far as he could re- collect they have not.
 E. w. Mildrum, one of the meni- bers of the Investigating committee. said that he has seen receipted Dill from the printer. The stenographe.'s $ bill, however, has not been paid. he said
 There was motion to adjourn bus mess until the next meeting of the com mittee which is to be appointed by MT. Clark for the purpose of ere ating board of finance in Berlin
 Ex-Senator Stevens made the point clear that according to the home rule bill no other business could come mp at that meeting except pertaining to the board.
 Charles H. Aspinwall moved that the meeting be adjourned which was immediately. seconded and accepted and the 1914 annual town meeting of Berlin passed into history.

ELMER AUTO co. HAS
 2,5OO FORD ORDERS
Business Increases So Fast Stations Will be Opened in Willimantic
 Torrington and Winsted.

A very sizeable volume of business is that to be done by the Elmer Au- tomobile company within the next twelve months. Lucius H. Elmer, proprietor of the Elmer company distributor of the Ford in four coun- ties of the state, has just signed up his contracts for 2,250 Ford cars. This number of cars makes up a volume in excess of $1,00O,00O, which IS going some when all things are considered. The Elmer business has been systematized. Fords are the make of car which is not delayed in transit. Every week just so many cars arrive in this city for the Elmer Automobile company, or in other towns for MT. Elmer's sub-dealers August has always been bad month for the local Ford dealer to receive cars; in fact they were not to be had but under MT. Elmer's agreement with the Ford Motor company of De- troit he will receive 36O cars during the month of August. Right here is food for thought; 1860 cars in thirty days! That's sending them in with precision, surely.
 In September, MT. Elmer will re- SCiyC Oh AAio dllOIlncHl 0VU cars ana during the months of October and November, when the wintry blasts are with us again, he is to receive 3S4 ears He finishes up the last month of the year with 150 cars, and takes as many more each month for Jan- uary and February. Next March he is scheduled to receive $40 cars, in April, 270; in May, 240; in June, 1S0, and in July, 126 cars.
 Now, it is plain to see the Elmer organization is going to be busy for the next twelve months. The work is all cut out and will be done. Speaking of this big shipment of cars MT. Elmer said: Two thou sand, five hundred and fifty cars makes a pretty big allotment, but do you know that, Ford-wise, it is not so very much? There are other dealers in the country who do con- siderably better than this, because they cover more territory and have more sub-dealers. Our 1916 allot- ment represents big increase over 1915, but then, this coming season is going to be the best the country has ever experienced.
 .'Of course. all dealers say this at the DeBinnlng or every season, ana for cars like the Ford it always turns out so. These cars come to us under a contract; we receive so many every month; there is no ques- ton about out getting them They come regularly. During the past year, despite this regular shipment and a big allotment we were short of cars.' MT. Elmer said that, in all proba bility the Ford output for 1916 would be approximately 50o,000 cars. He has no doubt this achieve ment will be attained, once it has been definitely decided to build so many cars.
 Concerning the prices of Ford cars for 1916, MT. Elmer said that after August the price of the rum about will be s390 and the touring car $40 a drop of $50 for both models. The Ford town car is to sell for $500, all prices f. o. b. De- troit. No speedometer will come with Ford cars after this. The Elmer Auto Co, is opening three branch | stores in Willimantic. Torrington and | Winsted. .--Advtt

VANGUARD OF MYSTIC
SHRINERS WELCOMED AT
SEATTLE TODAY

Seattle, Wash, July 10.-With
thousands of flags and pennants
streaming and miles of oriental de-
Esigns-py scimitars, crescents,
sphinxes and stars stretching along
the business thoroughfares, Seattle
today greeted the vanguard of the
mobiles of the Mystic Shrine who ar
rived from every direction to par
ticipate next week in the forty-frst
imperial council.
The entire city is ablaze with color,
the national hues blending with the
Shrine colors of Nile green, red and
yellow. From the skyscrapers long
lines of rainbow-colored incandes-
cents drop to other strings Of bril-
liant lights over the main streets,
while practically, all the big busi-
ness structures are gay with bunt-
ings and flags. Huge signs with the
slogans, "Smile with Nile"-the
watchword of the Nile Templre Seat
tie, and of "Es Salamu Aleikum'
greeted the delegates on every hand.
Although the council itself will
not begin until Tuesday, the local
mobiles have arranged a program last
ing for seven days, known in Seattle
as 'Shrine Week.
Sunday, Noble Mark A.. Matthews,
pastor of the First Presbyterian
church, Seattle, the largest in Am
erica, and past moderator of the
Presbyterian denomination, will hold
special devotion for the visitors.
Noble Matthews made the speech at
the convention at Atlanta last sum-
mer that won the convention for
Seattle. -~....,..
Another series of religious ser
vices will be conducted by Bishop
Frederick w. Keator, potentate of
Afifi Temple, Tacoma
The remainder of the Sabbath will
be spent in getting settled, in auto
mobile rides over Seattle's famous
interlake boulevards and in concerts
by visiting bands before the Shrine
stadium, an amphitheatre erected for
the convention, seating $4,000: per-
sons.
The majority of the mobiles will
reach Seattle Sunday and Monday.

ing the imperial potentate, DR.. Fred
I erick R. Smith, of Rochester, New
