and no objection was raised to the making of the appropriation. although 1t was admitted that the town will probably run behind this year as the result. The voters took the view that as the state and trolley companies will spend thousands of dollars in in- proving the streets in question, the least the town might do is to con- tribute enough to have the work done in accordance with the commission CTS plans.
 On Whiting street the pavement Is to be laid from curb to curb from the terminus of the present amiesite area to the corner of Maple street. Four hundred and fifty dollars was appropriated by the meeting to make this possible.
 While it was explained that but $2,0O5 will be required to have the amiesite cover the entire highway from the railroad crossing on West Main street to the Trust company's property, it was suggested that at all the intersectng streets as far as the Forestvi'le town line the pavosnent should extend from crosswalk to cross walk. This idea was favored by the voters and they made an appropria-

 Contractors Notified.
 Selectman Johnson was down town early this morning to notify the con- tractors in charge of the Whiting and West Main street jobs Of the action of the meeting, and he authorized them to make the. improvements for which the voters had Arranged.
 The work on Whiting street has proceeded to 8 point almost to the. corner of Maple street. but tho addi- uonal width can be provided without causing any interruption. It is ex- pected that in about two weeks, with favorable weather. the laying of the Whiting street pavement will be conn., pleted. $.
 The pavement on West Main street is to be started at the railroad cross ing and the commissioner plans to have it continued as far as the plant of the Bristol Brass company in East Bristol. The contractors sstimAts that

While oil duty the men will have a place to so whore they can play games, read or write lett>rs home. It is expected that the mon will groatly appreciate what the ladies of the town have done for them.
 Fafmers Discuss Labor.
 At tho meeting of the Farmers club held in the town court room last eve- ming the matter of farm labor was dis cussed: A motion was passed to look more fully into the matter of using the school boys on the farms this summer as planned by the Hart ford County League. Farm help is hard to secure and the local club is doing all in it's power to improve some method whereby labor can be secured.
 The Grangers wish 1t understood that there will be no dance in their hall this evening.
 Reports indicate that there was a. heavy frost last night.
 Arthur l.. Brandegee has written to the town clerk in regard to two acres of land that he wishes tc rent on shares. The land Is located near the Brandegee farm on the west side of Berlin street and MT. Brandexea will work 1t on shares. He is willing to furnish the land and the fertilizer and the other party Is to do the work.
