 Caucus Night On Friday
 The caucuses of both the republi. can and democratic party for the nomination of town officers will be held in the Town hall on Berlin street Friday evening of this week al 8 o'clock, daylight saving time. The republicans will meet in the main as- sembly hall while the democrats will meet in the court room on the sec ond floor.
 1 From present indications there will be no contest at either the. republican or democratic caucuses. George B. Carter is the only man to date who has announced himself as being a can- didate for first selectman, the posi- i ton he now holds. C. F. Lewis of kensington is also the only candidate for tax collector.
 1 Both. of these men are representa- tives or the republican party and to date there have been no candidacy announcements made by members of the democratic party. Interviews with many of the prominent people of the town, both men and women, show that the majority Of the Ser lin residents are apparently satisfied with the present town administration and It is quite possible that the entire slate will be renominated and re- elected.
 It was at first thought that former Selectman Willard filling of Kensing- ton would seek the first selectman's berth, but in statement to the Herald made several weeks ago he said that he had work enough taking care of his personal affairs without hothering with the affairs of the town.
 Although the Independent Political association was founded last year with the interests of the town at heart nothing has been heard from the or ganization this year. Some residents were inclined to believe that this body of men might place a candidate before the public this year.
 There are vacancies on the school committee, the board of assessors and the board of registrars to be filled this year. .~
