DISCUSSED BARRE
TRAFFIC RULES
City Council Deferred Action, However,
As Season Is Practically
Over.

| Better traffic conditions in Barr
seem probable. The question was dis
cussed at length by the city counci
last night, but as the present season
is practically at an end no action wai
taken on the matter.
1 However, the sentiment Of the coun
| ell plainly Indicated that spring would
find the traffic rules and regulations
radically changed and stringent pro.
visions in effect to eliminate the many
dangers brought about by the increase
in the number of automobiles in the
past few years. During the talk par
ticular stress was laid on the reckless
driving which is becoming more appar-
ent in Barre every day and the extreme
lack of uniformity in parking on Main
street.
Two reports were received from the
committee on lighting. One recommend
ed the installation OF light at Sher-
idan and Wellington streets and the
other that the light on Circle Street
near the railroad be moved diagonally
across the street. Both reports were
accepted by the council and the rec
concentrations ordered carried out, The
committee on streets reported that a
petition for cement sidewalk on the
east side of Maple Grove street had
been investigated and recommended the
sidewalk be laid next year. This report
was also accepted.
These building permits were grant
ed: Il. Prestini to reshinglc the roof
of an ell at ii Short street, John Yicari
to move henhouse from 3S Center
street, to Is George street, Mrs. John
Brown to build wagon shed in the
rear of Fl Center street, H. w. Scott
and Others to remodel a piazza and re
shingle the roof OF the house at 10
Richardson street and Charles Bianchi
& Sons to build steel engine room off
West Second street to replace the one
recently destroyed by fire.
A request from City Clerk James
Smart for light in the downstairs
vault in city hall was referred to the
lighting committee.
