 Several important matters, pertain
 ing to the proposed improvements of the town will come before the voters of Plainville at the annual meetine. to be held at the Town Hall on Mon l day, October 3. The following officers will be elected: Town clerk, treasurer | three selectmen, one member on the board of relief, one assessor, tax col lector, seven consta bles, three grand | jurors, two members on the school | committee, two registrars of voters, | two auditors, two directors of the li-
 brary board, and other members to | fill any vacancies which may occur at said meeting.
 | The matter of auth orizing the se- | lectmen to take action on the relation of certain taxes will come up as well as to instruct and authorize them to install new street lights as is seemed | advisable. The question of the duty | of the police on the streets will be one of the important matters to be acted upon and it is expected that this will furnish some interesting ma l terial.
 | The action of the seleetmen will be | approved of in borrowing money to pay for the past, and the current ex- penses of the town for the fiscal year ending August IS. 1922.
 The matter of having a board of q | board was defeated some time ago when a meeting was held for that purpose. It is possible that the people of the town do not fully understand the duties of the proposed board as it was defeated under some consider | ation. However, it is hoped that this | board will get recognition at the meet | ing and go through. It will be an asset to the town and a complete ex- planation of its duties will later be explained through the columns of | this paper.
 A vote will also be made on the adoption of Chapter 176, General Statutes, concerning the construction of sidewalks and to make bylaws for the same. This is a new bill passed of sidewalks and to make bylaws for some good points.
 It will mean that during the winter, when the people are obliged to clear their sidewalks of snow sleet, which ma.- or may not be done by them promptly, will be done by the town at the property owners expense. Another important matter will be that of resembling and appealing the acceptance by the town of the spe- cial act of the legislature of Con- necticut approved of May 3, 1917, au- of Iaiy xvi1 11n fO establish commission on town plan also the special act approved of on April 19, 1917, concerning the estab- lishment of building lines in Plain vile. Also to renounce and reject all rights and obligations conferred or imposed by said special acts and to abolish ths commission on town plan and bureau of assessment and award established by a vote of the town under said special act of the legisla- ture approved of May 8, 1917. Also to accept and adopt provisions Of Chapter 26 of the general statutes Of Connecticut relating to town plans commission and to raise a commis- sion on town plan and to select the members of such commission as pro- vided for in that chapter of the pub lie acts. Also to act on an appropria- tion for the necessary expenses of such, a commission so to be appointed and to transact any other business relating to the foregoing matters that may be deemed necessary or expedi- ent.
