and they are rendering an admirable i service.
 1 All the ladies of the town are in- vited tO~ affiliate themselves with the 1 corps of workers. It is their patriotic 1 duty to render what aid they can and the appeal of the committee on sur gical dressings gives them a fine op- portunity.
 Materials required for the work have been contributed in large quan- i titles with solicitation. Recruits to the ranks of workers. however, are badly needed and the women at pres ent serving are hopeful that they will get endorsements immediately. Many Subscribe Here. Plainville is making a satisfactory response to the appeal for subscrip- tions to the Liberty Loan and it is expected that the bonds which should be taken here as the towns part in the financing of the war will all be purchased by local investors.
 It is planned to have literature containing information concerning the loan distributed by Boy Scouts and other means may be adopted to work up interest in the undertaking unless Plainville's allotment of the bonds Is bought within few days.
 Paving Workers Here.
 Work on the laying of the pave ment between Bristol and Plainville, which was started in the neighboring city is making good progress. despite the unfavorable weather and the men employed in tearing up the macadam are now in this town. One side of the highway has been torn up as far as Calor's factory and in another week it is expected the balance of the stretch to be improved will be exca- vated.
 Contractors estimate that it will be midsummer before the laying of the pavement will be completed.
 The improvements, which are made at the expense of the state and the trolley companies, except for a small contribution given by the town to have the pavement extend from curb to curb from the railroad crossing. to the corner of Pierce street, will make the main highways in Plainville com pare favorable with those of any place in Connecticut.
 Registration Blanks Arrive.
 Blanks to be used in registering eligibles for military service on June 5 are now in possession of the reg istration board and that body is pre- pared to perform the duties assigned to 1t by the governor. Besides making out the blanks, the registration board will issue card to the eligibles for proof that they have compiled with the law.
 Volunteers have made arrangements to serve for certain hours during the day and 1t is believed that the board will have plenty of assistance.
