ANOTHER SPECIAL
 MEETING IS CALLED

Red Cross Meeting Will Be Held To- night When Officers Will Be Elected Other News Notes.

OIner NeWS Notes.
 A call has been issued bv the board of selectmen for a special town meet ing to be held in the court room of the town hall on the evening of Mon day, November ,. The purpose of tho meeting is to hear a report from q town building committee which was appointed several months ago to con sider the necessity of new town building and to look up a suita ble site for such building. The meeting will also hear report from a comrr tee which was authorized to purchase more land for West cemetery on be- half of the Plainville Cemetery asso- citation.
 The report which will be made by the building committee is the subject of much speculation and will undoubt- edly prove interesting to everybody in Plainville. The committee has sup posedly investigated the necessity for a new town building. There is no ac- tual necessity for such an inVestiga- tion, as it was conceded some time ago that the present building is in sufficient for the purpose of a public building.
 A considerabl sum of money was
 
 hall after it was destroyed by fire and the new plans provided only for 8 building devoted to offices for the town officials and for q court room and H. brary. There is no hall in the build ing which may be used for public meetings, entertainment or like as- semblages. The young people of the town have to go to other towns and cities for recrea ton, the Grange hall being too small to suit the needs of the public. An instance of this was furnished last evening when a dance was held by club composed of young people from Mountain View The dance was a failure financially and so- cially, because the young people could not attract a crowd when the affair was held in such a hall. The doors were closed earlier than is usual al such an affair.
 The point of greatest interest to the public is whether GOT not the commit tee has located a suitable site for the erection of building and the next question is, What will the town off, cials do about the matter?" The uues- tion has been the subject of lively aei- tation for a long time and no doubt the town meeting will be the most in teresting one which has been held in some time.
 Late Football Practice.
 Passengers on trolley cars were greatly amused and interested last evening between the hours of and 9 o clock to see a crowd of boys holding, football practice in front of the large signboard on the property of the Trumbull Electric Manufacturine. n ho ai hoo ic mated by powerful electric search light placed on one of the buildings and the boys utilized the artificial light until it was turned off They were evidently holding signal practice These jealous gridron warriors evil dCntlN owe the Trumbull company a vote of thanks for making their noe turna' practice possible

 Commuters Troubles Again.
 Many commuters are wondering what will he done in regard to the issue of transfer tickets with the coming of the zone system of colIec- ton of fares. Up to the present time it has been the custom for the Con- necticut company and the Bristol and Plainvillc Tramway company, by mutual agreement. to issue transfers to passengers boarding cars within the limits Of the town of PlainVile. For instance, if a passenger entered the car at any point this side of the Sew Britain town line, he was en- titled to a, transfer on the Bristol line car which would carry him as far as the Forestville town line. The same rule applied to passengers boarding ears at the Southin gtOn town line and to those boarding Bristol line cars
