BERLIN NEVIS TOWN MEETING IS CALLED FOR DEC. 30 Probably Will Establish Fire De- partment and Other Utilities COST NOT MADE PUBLIC
NIoseI Company, For Manufacture of Wrought Steel and Iron SpecialtieS, Buys Old Wheel Factory-Othcr Gossip of Berlin.

A town meeting has been called by tAe board of selectmen for December 30, 1919 to establish fire district to be known as the 'Worthington F'ire' District and to embrace that section of the town proposed by the legal voters at the meeting. The voters are those who reside within the confines of the proposed Worthington district The matter of improving the sewer and other utilities also will be dis cESsed. The town meeting is the outcome of a conference of several Berlin citizens at the Shuttle Meadow club a few weeks ago, when steps were taken for the organization of a proposed fire and sewer. district for Berlin The cost of installation will be presented bM,the promoters of the proposed sys- tem to the Berlin voters for their con- sideraion. Figures are not yet avail able as to the probable cost
 It was announced this morning that if the. Worthington district accom- plished their object it was probable that the Kensington section would adopt similar proceedings, as that section is in need of the same utili- ties.
 J Company Buys Property.
 That the Mosel Manufacturing com- pany will occupy the old Wheel Fac tory is now assured, as the deed to the property has been filed with Clerk A l.. Woodruff. It has been known for several weeks that the company has been inspecting the property with a view to its purchase. The prom ot- CTS of the new concern evidently an- ticipate expansion of their business as they purchased an acre of land ad- jacent 10 the factory, making their holdings approximately three acres.
 The articles of incorporation of the Mosel company state wrought iron and steel specialties will be manufac- tured as well as general manufactur- ing in iron and steel. Officers of the coIn pany are familiar with all phases of the specially trade it was sta ted, as they have bee associated in the manufacture of specialies in the Stan lev Works ana the American Hard ware Corporation. .-.
 Nothing could be learned this morn ing when, the concern would begin manufa curing. Those familiar with the / condition of the property state that it will take a month or more to make repairs to the factory building before any machinery can be installed making it improbable that much will be done before spring.

 Talk of Tax Rate.
 There is already some talk in local be held some time during the month of March to name the tax rate for the fiscal year of 1920. It is expected that the building boom caused by industrial .developm ent will result in a consid- era ble increase in the grand list. The erection of factory additions is not eX- pected to add much to the list this wear as in most cases the buildings are unfinished. However, if there is an unusually large addition to the amount of the grand list, it must necessarily result in a lowering of the tax rate. The reduction, if such there be, will not be extensive, as the school ex- penses have increased materially with in the past two years. Town Clerk Robert c. Usher said this morning, there soon will be demand for a new school building to accommodate the rapidly increasing number of pupils.
