In the oplmion of one of the older men of the town. who has been con- ncctcd with town affairs for many ycurs, the erection Of a new town hall in PIainNillc is not so far distant as many people think He is of tI,o opinion that the hall will be erected as .sOOn Ns the town gets back to :, firm financial basis which should not be more than few years Asked if the re, cntIN rebuilt hall would delay the erection, he answered that he thought it would make no differences Whatever as the hall just completed will be of service when PIninviIIc is a much larger community. The pro- posed site which he thinks will be used for the now town hall will be in the eastern section of the town and most probably on East Main street ne necessity for N new hall is we'll known in the town. At present the Grange building is tho only one in the town available for USc by the public The Grange hall is much too small to be used fOl any event of much inn portancc. Recently several affairs have been held there and it's size caused great inconvenience The fire mems fair was another good example of tho necessity of q hall as tho pres Cnt place was not large. enough 10 accommodate tEe crowd.
 The town hall of tho present time could be used to good advantage later for q probate court, library, etc. The town clerks office at the present time is not OvCrspNciOuS and if everything in the office is not placed just in it's position the office is rrampCd for room. The SclcCtmCn'S room is a large room and unused. in the terms of tho town clerks office. but the fact that the large vault was in the building resulted in the town clerk $ office being built around the vault. The light in the town clerks office is not all that is dCsira bIc and another window cut on the south side of the building would probably remedy mat tcrs. Tho sides of the office arc painted q dark color which adds to the darkness. A coat of light paint would aid the eycsight of the people usinc the office. This has been a par ticularly busy place recently because of the numerous sales of property in town. If the new hall is built soon, II is probablc that it will contain d town cICrlI' $ office.

Army and Navy Club.

\0W that a large number ol ram vile boys are back from the service, the question of having an orGa nlzatlOn of tho men is being discussed freely. There is much favoritism for an Army and \avv club in the town and 1t would not bc surprising if such a club were started in the near future. The town gave almost 200 men to the scryiCc Somc of them have paid with their lives. others will not return to the town. but from that large num!Cr a r)11h could he started which would be of much influence in the town. Nothing such as fratcrnal love binds men togcthcr and a clUb of this kind would have that effect her" also. Membership, of course, would be open only to fighters in either branch Of thc service during the war. It would be q sort of PlainNillH G. \. k. and would have much influence Tn the town.
