 Clubrooms for Boys.
 Through the kindness of Colonel Charles M. Jarvis the Boy Scouts of Berlin have been given the use of some fine club rooms on the colonePs prop erty. The boys will be allowed to as- semble here under the supervision of Rev. s. A. Fiske who will have charge of the meeting. Included with this offer is the use of the bowling alleys which will give the boys plenty of practice for the championship games which are to be played between teams from the three districts of Kensington, Berlin and East Berlin. No doubt the Boy Scouts of Berlin are now far bet ter off for rooms than any other troop of scouts in the state. The To- cal troop is one of the fastest growing in this section and is now tied with the leads in the campaign for new mem bers which is being conducted in this section. In fact the troop is growing so fast that plans are now underway to form new troop in the Kensing- ton district which will mean that the Berlin troop will be divided.

 The cold wave which struck this section of the country night before last forced the mercury down to ten below zero last night which is the coldest weather that has been regis tered in this section so far this win- ter. This morning found the ther- l m ometer but little above the zero mark and from all indications there will be little chances of a warm spell within the next twenty-four hours. The trains were not much affected by the cold wave as they were all run- ming close to the schedule this morn ing. Although there were no cases of frozen ears or noses about the town those that have occasion to stay out any length of time have taken the necessary precautions against receiv- ing the same.
