HURRY FROM SHORE
 TO SEE THEIR BOY
Parents of Harry Vile Hasten Home Learning Son Is Here
ON FEW HOURS FURLOUGH
BIeep Forgotten When Herald News boys Pay Late Visit Shouting Word : of Allied Victory-Car Barn in Sad
 Need of Repairs.

Harry Vile one of Berlin's men in #the service returned home for < brief furlough yesterday. Upon ar riying here he learned that his par ents were at the seashore. AS his leave of absence was so short and he had not been home for ten or eleven months he thought that his folks would be anxious to see him. He telephoned his parents at the shore and they secured an automo- bile, not waiting for a train so as net to lose any time. MT. Vile en- listed in the navy over a year ago and has been assigned to subma- rine chaser and had not been able to obtain furlough.
 Mervin Vile, a brother of Harry was home on furlough all last week but returned Saturday, thereby missing his brother by @ day. Both are in the navy, the former in the aviation branch. MT. and Mrs. Vile arrived in Berlin just in time to see their son and bid him goodbye and good luck.
 Berlin Celebrates Victory. The news of last night of the vic- tory of the Allies in France was re- ceived in Kensington and Berlin with :. ioy Extra Heralds were brought down here at 11:30 and the people turned out in large mum bers from 9heir beds. A week ago Sunday some newsboys came here to sell the eX- tra papers and as the news was print : sed so late and 1t was later still when the boys disposed of their papers they had to sleep on Q porch here for no cars were running. Last night the boys were prepared with an automo- bile and time did not interfere. Bells and chimes were rung in Kensington when the townspeople were aware ot the happenings.
 Repairs Needed.
 The trolley barn belonging to the 2 Connecticut Co.,, which is situated at the terminal of the trolley tracks in Berlin is badly in need of repairs. The 'roof of the barn has gone to decay and all the shingles are cracked and leaky. This place is used as stor- age room for cars but they may as well be kept out in the open.

MEMORIAL SERVICE
 FOR DEAD SOLDIER
Impressive Exercises in Church of
 Our Savior Yesterday
CELEBRATE ALLIES VICTORY

PlainviIle Turns Out With a Will,
 Has Parade, Burns Down a Barn
 and Makes Night Echo With Un-
 usual Noises.
 Impressive services were conducted at the Church of Our Saviour yester- day morning for Private Earl Made ley, a Plainville soldier who was killed in France. The rector, Rev. MT. Burton, read a, letter from Made ley, written a short time before his death It is a noticeable fact that Madeley never spoke about himself, but praised the work of the other boys in France. The pastor empha- sized this fact in his eulogy. A gold star has been placed on the church service flag in cornmemoration of Pri vate Madeley.
