All WOULD PLANT GARDENS
Council to Receive Resolution Au- thoriZing Transfer of Money Tor Expenses Connected With Plots.

Up to date All applications for home garden plots have been re- ceived at the Chamber of Commerce rooms. The applications close April 15. It shows that people are needing the warning in getting their app}t- cations in carly. Last year there were altogether 9S7 applications. Tonight a resolution will be introduced in the council by Alderman 0. F. Curtis at the request of the committee to au- thorize the treasurer, George ". Spear, to draw on the appropriation as it is essential that the homo gar den work should start the first of April and money is needed for imme- diate uso for the purchase of necee- sary supplies. The city has apDro- priatod $3.00O for the garden plots Chairman George K. Macauley is busy securing land for plots in dif- fercnt parts of the city, and much more land is still needed. It is re- ouested that all having plots to offer get in communication with him at once. Charles Boyle, formerly of the John Boyle Co.,. has generously of fered his services to Mir. Macauley in assisting him in hunting up plots for the gardens.
 The annual meeting of the New Britain NcAll Auxiliary will be held at the South church chapel, Monday March 25. at 4:30 o'clock. Rev. Err nest Graham Guthrie, recently re- turned from a seven nonths' asso- citation with the American field serv- ice in France will speak on, "A Day at the Front" All men and women interested are invited to attend and it is hoped that gentlemen. teachers and Red Cross workers will find the hour convenient.
