Berlin Is an important railroad june
ton. This would also offer more at
traction to manufacturers who de-
sire to get on the main line.
Another interesting point which has
been discussed by several leading
businessmen lis the fact that the
water mains would probably be
brought through the Norton and
be cut up into building lots and offer
attractive home sites. The valuation
of all property would, of course. be
greater with the furnishing OF run
ming water.
Many people in both kensington
and Berlin have pumps installed in
their homes and to do this they have
spent a great deal of money. Many
feel that with these pumps and the
wells. they do not need the running
water.

There was a large attendance at
the last of the April series of whists
at the +. A. n. hall last evening. The
prize winners are as follows: First
