Replying to communication from the state council for defense Town Clerk Usher today recommended the Business and Improvement association ! as the proper organization to look after the celebration of the Fourth on July in Plainville.
 The state council proposes to make the celebration patriotic in character but will probably recommend that the use of fireworks be omitted that powder might be saved for 8 more l useful purpose and to avoid the dan ger which the promiscuous use of fire arms under the existing conditions ! might permit.
 There Is a likelihood that a patriotic demonstration in which all people ! will be permitted to take part will be suggested as g. substitute for the usual method of celebrating.

Morrill,, chairman of the board of library directors, announced | today that a large number of new books have been secured by the com mittee and the most of them are now on shelves in the library room in the Town hall ready forfcirculation. egn- cluded in the list are ninety copies of tho latest fiction stories. twenty nve of juvenile classification and forty non-dction publications.
