 Gets Operators License.
 Having passed the necessary exam ination with an excellent grade, Alden Lincoln, son of MT. and Mrs. J. C. Lincoln of Pennington road, has been licensed by William c. Redtield, sec retary of commerce and E. T. Cham berlain, commissioner of navigation as a radio operator amateur of the first grade. In compliance with the requirements of his license, he took an oath before Francis H. Shaw, justice of the peace this morning, agreeing to preserve secrecy of all messages com ing to his knowledge through his en- ploymcnt under the license.
 Young Lincoln was one of a num- bcr of Connecticut young men who took the examinations, and by show ing an excellent knowledge of general adjustments, operation and care of apparatus; transmitting and sound rending the Continental Morse code at n speed of twelve words minute and showing a general knowledge of in ternational regulations and acts of congress to regulate radio, was Consid- cred perfectly eligible to a license.

that as he was held responsible for the results of the company's work and the manner in which the appar- atus was operated at fires. he should be in control at all times. He be- lieved that the chief should be more than nominal leader or should the commissioners want him merely for a figurehcad they should not hold him responsible for mistakes that might be made at fires.
 Members of the Hose company, if is said, are satisfied to have the full power transferred to the chief and they believe that the change will make the department more efficient.

 Plan Popular.
 The announcement In the Herald last night that Selectman Gibney had decided, upon the request of a num- ber of his constituents, to appear be- fore the charter revision committee in New Britain next Tuesday night and ask that the charter be so amended as to allow the city of New Britain the right to extend It's water mains to Kensington, was received with favor about the district. The consensus of opinion is that tho charter revision committee will ac- auiesce to the requests of the kens- ingtonites, thus, paving the way for the introduction of running water in- to that section of the town.
 Some people are inclined to believe that the Kensington Water Power company, to which the legislature granted a charter some years ago, will voice objections to the plan. This company, which is practically the American Paper Goods company, owns a reservoir on Turkey Hill but has done absolutely nothing towards improving 1t and supplying the town with water, as was the stipulation of tho charter MT. Reynal of the con- cern Is said to have made the state hot ', company would not be able to fi- nance the project. The people want running water and fire protection and, if the local company cant sup ply the demand, they feel that they have a right to turn to New Britain.
 MT. Gibney laughed at an article printed In a morning paper, which stated that kensington could not get water from New Britain unless an- neXation first took place.
