 Baseball Notes.
 With the baseball season nearing it's end, interest seems to be lacking. The ma cement of both local teams, how ever, intends to finish the season. The Aces will go to New Hartford Sunday afternoon to meet the American Legion team of that place. They will go by auto truck and leave Plainville center at 12:30 o'clock. This will be the last game of the season for the Aces. They have been successful in making the season one to be remembered and the management wishes to thank the pa irons of the town for their ardent sup port during their games here. Under the efficient management of Ray Neff, of the Standard Steel and Bearings company, the team has risen to a high standard and tops the Central Con- necticut league. The club will un- doubtedly organize again next year. The Plainvil1e X. c. will go to Sims bury Sunday afternoon and play the first game of a probable series of three. Simsbury headed the Hartford County league last season and wishes to play the locals to see which is the better team of the two. Simsbury did not enter the league this year.
 Bremen on Outing. Practically the entire fire depart ment will be absent from the town to- morrow as they will attend the Man chester Field day. The members will leave e.Iainville at 6:30 o'clock in the morning by automobile and will be arrayed in their new uniforms. The Plainville Drum corps will accompany them and show the Manchester resi- dents what real drumming is. In case of fire, the department heads have made arrangements for this and 10 regular men will be in town to care for any outburst of flames.
 Fair Exhibit Now on.
 The P1ainville Junior Food Army fair and exhibit is in progress at the Plainville town hall and will continue until tomorrow afternoon. There have been more entries this year than any previous demonstration and the ofh- cials in charge are enthusiastic over the success of the fair. The judging of prizes will take place late this af- ternoon and will be made by Ray mond James of the Hartford County Earn bureau.
 As an additional inducement, Henry Trumbull is offering an award of $5 for the best general exhibit. This will be a tempting offer and it is believed that many grown-ups will strive to seek this prize as we'll as the young farmers of the town. Through Prin- cipaI Orrin L. Judd of the local gram mar school, the pupils have been in structed in the fair and are attending in large numbers. The fair will come to a close tomorrow morning and the exhibitors may call for their products in the afternoon. ,-7, 2,
