 No Optimism Now.
 There does not seem to be the slightest doubt in the minds of menh- bers of the general committee but that the complete allotment of $99,000 designated to the town of Plainville will not be raised within the next few days. Better than that, some of the officials have high hopes of even over- subscribing the allotted amount. Total subscriptions now amount to $65,000 and prospects for $2O,000 more are in sight. Interest is being manifested in the improvised clock on Central Square and barometer at the Plainville Hardware store which are slowly and surely climbing to the in- tended destination.

The streets, which were wet during the early hours of the morning quickly dried under the warm sun and slight wind kept the weather at just the right temperature.
 Shortly after 1 o'clock the town seemed literally to be alive with people and busy people they were. All hurrying to Pierce street where those who participated in the parade were ordered to assemble. The parade
