Renders.

Work was commenced on a smal, scale today on the new proposed road leading from the PlainyiIle Casting company tq Broad street at a point beyond the Grammar school, Sclect- man William J. Johnson has q small force of men starting the work. Mich ael Kosento has offered the use of his farm implements which are put to good effect in breaking the road. Just how long time will be necessary in making the entire stretch cannot be ascertained but 1t is hoped that the highway will be completed before the real cold weather sets in.
 The street will give the unemployed men of the town q chance for work and take care of them for q month at least. Many have already applied to Selectman Johnson for employment and have been accepted.
 The Town Plans Commission held a meeting in the town hall last night when the layout of the street was of- ficially and duly accepted, Nothing definite outside of this was discussed,
 Stores Mny Close.
 In all probability there will be some action taken by the local store keepers in regards to the observance of Armistice Day There are many proprietors in favor of closing the entire day and some half day. Armi- stce Day has been declared as Ie- gal holiday this year but will prob ably not be observed as such in later years. It Is understood that 4 peti- ton will be circulated by owners in favor of the closing and will ask for signers to back them up. However, in view of the fact that there will be no celebration here during the day, there may be some objection registered against it. The parade will not be held until the evening when the entire community will turn out.
 The factory officials have taken no action on the matter as yet but will in all proba abllty discuss it before that day. The general opinion is that the town should honor their hero dead and this observance would not be too much.

CITY YOUTHS ARE UP ON FARM LIFE
New York Boys by Thousands
 Are Working Garden Plots

New York, Aug. 29.-Country life and gardening have no mysteries for juvenile New Workers They are con- fident that no country boy or girl could fool them much about gardens and the things that grow in them.
 Under the supervision of Father Knickerbocker, thousands of them have labored this summer cultivating little gardens in city parks. Some of the gar dens have more than ,OOO individual garden plots. Each with little farmer or farmerette in charge.
 There are row after row of beets, car rots and sweet corn and tangles of to- matoes with red fruit peeping out from the surrounding greenery. The farm erettes usually have fancy for a patch of gay colored flowers in one corner of the plot The farmers run more to raising more substantial things, some thing that can be eaten.
 Those who have had previous experi- ence in gardening are allowed to devote their entire plot to raising their favor

MUCH AMUSEMENT
 WITH BALKY HORSE
Elm Hill Residents Solve Old
 Time Problem Of LOCOmOtiOn

He wasn't an old man, but the horse evidently was. In fact, New lngton residents are divided on the question as to whether it was the original equine steed of Noahs ark fame, or the one which conveyed Methusaleh's grandfather to school on winter mornings. No one knew where they were going, but after con- siderable speculation Newington resi- dents finally adopted, under protest, the drivers statement that he really was on the way. In fact, he confided that he had four miles to go and all night to get there. The horse appar- ently was determined to take all night to cover the distance.
 Burned the Wagon
 "Git ap, thah,'' shouted the driver swinging a double-joined whip about his head like a fish line; but the horse was a blue law advocate and refused to work Sunday. Why don't you build a fire under him." was the inevitable advice, generally offered about this time in all such cases. "I did. once,'' was the answer, and the dern fule hoss moved ahead three feet anu DuTuco up tue wagon.
 Wouldn't Notice Pepper. "Give him a dose of red pepper" suggested someone else, thinking to put some pep into the animal His gosh dinged hides so dern tough he'd never know it, was the reply. Put stones in his ears," suggested another volunteer adviser. "It ud only make another rattle in his head" disgust edly returned the driver, now the center of an amused gathering. Finally Compromises.
 Advice and suggestions flew thick and fast from now on. Offers of as sistance were plenty. Finally some one suggested trying to lead the horse; others tried pushing the wag- on. But he would neither be led nol pushed. On the principle that yor can coax an animal where you can drive him, someone pulled a bunch of grass and held it before the ami malls nose. His eyes opened; his ear. stood up; his nostriIs twitched ht stretched his neck, but couldn't quite reach the grass. He hesitated pond cred and decided to compromise b, putting one foot forward. But tn grass was moved on.
 They Get the Horse Laugh.
 His greed now excited, the balk horse at last took a step forward. Tn action was so unexpected that tn holder of the grass became excited and, as the grass went down an equin throat. a lusty "hee-haw," resounde on the atmosphere.
 Profiting by his first experience, tn grass puller became wary and. hold ing another bunch Of green grass at
 safe distance he walked backward ahead of the horse, while an admirin crowd pushed on the wagon. At las
 reports the group had progresse
 about 500 feet at the rate of TOO fee
 Aa1 hour and were still going.

 entirely, it is not believed that they
 will make efforts for solution fav-
 orable to Japan and. thus fresh i'm
 broglio will be created in connection
 with Far Eastern questions, the result
 of wluch will be to check Japan'S
 legitimate development. in China Thus Japan will be faced with a shortage of raw materials to provide for her growing population. Although Japan has of course no objection for bringing up Far Eastern question: again.
 ''If America insists in putting for
 ward her claims regarding these aues-
 tions, Japan, before discussing them,
 may properly bring up in her demands
 for an economic open door and free dom of emigration for all countries
 for it would not be just to discuss Far Eastern questions alone? if Japan'a claims arc not considered. Therefore,
 Japan should proceed along these lines. Premier Hara should himself take place in the conference and not dispatch representatives who can act only partially. AS Japan in conse- quence of the proposed conference will enter upon new and important poli- tical situation she must participate and be actuated by lofty humanitarian principles
 Another Japanese writer said: At Paris we went into court as plain tiff at Washington we go in as a de- fendant"

ite vegetables. But the beginners haU to go in for diversified crops.
 The two Fiorentino sisters, Joseph inc and Rookie, are famous gardener in their neighborhood. But Josephine believes the succulent cabbage is tho only vegetable worthy of an experienc- ed farmerette's attention. Rookie, who is equally experienced, yearns for the juicy tomato and cultivates her plot ac' cordingly. Thus the F'iorentino family is assured a good supply of both vege- tables.
 The rivalry between children and neighbor hoods is keen. There are prizes given at the close of the season for the best attendance, the best kept plots and the best specimens of vegetables.
 Mrs. Fannie Parson, supervisor of parks, understands the psychology of the juvenile gardener. and there are enough prizes so that no district can fail to get at least one. Mrs. Parsons is 70 years old and nearly blind but she visits the parks and supervises the work of her score of assistants every day.

suard naval property and maintain order.
 One of the mos- significant articles on tho international conference called by President Harding was printed in the Chugai Shogyo, a leading metro politan newspaper, which is usually we'll informed, and is believed to re- fleet the views of the big business in terets.
 Said the Journal 'The .Privy Coun- cil has taken the matter very serious ly and has asked various questions
 tAlthough the strictest secrecy ia maintained we learn indirectly that the Privy council does not feel op timistic about the matter, as~is gen. erally reported. In the Privy council the discussion centers around three points:
 "G Although it approves of the limitation of armaments, what ia tho nature of the questions to be discussed regarding the Pacific.
 "(2) What are the reasons for bringing Far Eastern questions within the scope of the conference.
 "(3) If Japan participates in such a conference, what will be the respon- abilities of ita representatives.
 'The Views of the Privy council may be summarized a9 follows:
 An understanding between Great Britain and America to act in concert iG behind the plan for including Far Eastern questions within the scope of the conference. As China has been included. she will certainly bring up all sorts of questions affecting her re- lations with Japan, these questions will encroach upon ou: vested interests in China.
 Even If Anne rica and Britain do

wanted to know the scope and nature of subjects to be discussed under the head of Pacific and Far Eas mat ters.
 Notes were made public showing that Secretary of State Hughes had asked the Japanese government not to press ia inquiry about Far Eastern policies and principles but to leave that for discussion in preparing the agenda.
 Japan replied that, under those cir cumstances, it would gladly accept an invitation for Q conference which shall embrace the discussion of tho Pacific and Far Eastern questions
