At the regular seTni-monthIy meet ing of he board of seIectmen held in their office in the town building last evening besides the usual routine matters being disposed of several new streets through the property of Oscar Swanson Of Canaan road were voted to be accepted as town streets as soon as the proper deeds have h5eu filed with the town clerk. These new streets are in the vicinity of MT, SHausOn's resId ence near Cannon road. The board also voted to notify the building inspector not to issue any more permits for buildings to be erected on new streets not accepted by the town and not already built on. This action was taken 10 protect the purchasers of homes on new streets which have been opened up by real estate spectators who cut streets through small tracts of land selling the property and leaving the streets in such condition that the purchaser will be unable to get to his home with team in the spring and fall when the frost is coming out of the ground. Many cases of this kind have been Omplained Of during the past few years and in order to ass st the new residents the town has had to ac- cept the streets and expend a large sum of money to repair them when this expense should have been borne by the developer of the property.

The town through First SeIectman
 Abraham Wellington and the local Red Cross society are working out a plan whereby the services of a com munity worker may be engaged. f the plan can be worked out success fully the town will pay half of the salary. The plans are to engage a woman to go into the homes of some of the residents and instruct them in the proper way to live and bring up their families. Cases are known where residents of foreign birth have a large family of children and these ranging from a few months to 10 years have never been given milk or the other wholesome foods which make healthy children. One family with seven small children has been found where the children in- stead of being fed milk are being given strong coffee instead with other foods as equally unfavorabIe to 2hild of these tender years.
