 Signs Contract.
 President Abram BuoL of the Chamber of Commerce, and Superin- tendent Samuel Kent, who left this morning with his staff for Thoms River, N. J., this morning signed the contract for next summers Chautau- qua. Plans are on foot to have 100 people guarantee the, sale of tickets each.
 On account of the increased cost of canvass, transportation, electric power, etc, it is necessary for the Swarthmore people to increase the price of season tickets from S2.50 to $500 for next season. This makes just 25 cents a performance at the new price
 A sufficient number of guarantors have signed up to make sure of a return engagement in 1922 All com mittees will be appointed in the very near future and tickets will be placed on sale about two weeks ahead of the new date.

KENSINGTON FIRE DISTRICT TO MEET Plans for Street Lighting Mill Be
 Discussed N. B. DRIVER FINED $25.O0
Two Boys Reprimanded by Judge For GambIjng-EXamina for Post mastership is Still Open-Chautau- qua NOtes-Berlin Items.

F. l.. Norton, president of the Ken sington fire district, announced this morning that the next meeting of the district will be held at Forester's hall in KeEsington on Friday evening, Sep. tember ?. All members are urged to attend this meeting as there is a large amount of business to be transacted before the winter months set in.
 The greatest question of the day in Kensington is that of having street lights. Arguments upon argumentl have been heard on all sides relative to street lights and some have appear ed in this column for and against tho proposition. Rev. J. c. Brennan of St. Pauls church is highly in favor of the town having street lights and he ia backed by a large number of local residents Father Brennan has al ways been a staunch supporter of tho movement for better lighting sys- tenn for the town of Kensington. When Father Brennan first moved into Ken sington some years ago. there were no lights in the town and arrange ments were completed with the Ameri can Paper Goods and some few indi- viduals for lights, those still being in place in this town. By this arrange ment certain sum of money was to be paid the American Paper Goods each year for the upkeep of the lights. This was done for few years by all those first interested. Later some of the people began to drop out until today there arc but few who arc paying. The system now used is not adequate enough for the town.
 The Connecticut Light and Power company of New Britain waa asked by the Kensington fire district to look the town over and give an estimate of what they thought the district could be lighted for. At the last meeting of the district the figures of the New Britain concern were thought to be too high. MT. Norton stated this morning that the same company has agreed to give Kensington 50 lights at 8 cost of S30 Q light.
 Other matters to be discussed at the meeting will be the levying of a tax to pay for the lights if favorable ac- ton is taken on the proposition. Moth ing will be done in regards to side walks at this meeting as the members feel that if the lighting question is thoroughly discussed and favorably acted upon, the district will have enough to dIleHu lo WltLoul tHe oiue walks
