| According to present plans of Tracy ID. Hallock of New Britain, who has purchased the property of Major F. l.. Wilcox ont the corner of Pennington road and Berlin street, the Berlin postoff1ce will remain in that building for the immediate future.
 When word was received that the building has been soG, local residents thought MT. Hallock would ask the government authorities to remove the office from that building, but when seen this morning. MT. Hallock re- piled in the negative.
 He did not, however, say how long the postoffice would remain in the building, as in months to come he plans to make alterations which may
 Postmaster A. A. Barrett said this morning that he has not received a notice from the new owner to vacate the premises and as far as he knows the postoffice will be in the building for some time to come.
 With the possible removal of the postoffice from the old tavern, there has been some talk as to where if could be located. It is understood that many residents and members of the republican town committee favor establishing the office back in the town hall, if the present quarters are to be vacated.
 The question of the possible plac- ing of the postoffice in the town hall again brings up the advsability of re-
 
 of the room which in all probability would be used for the postoftice.
 Members of the American Legion discussed the removal of the honor roll at meeting several months ago but final action was not taken. It was felt, however, that the roll should not be destroyed and a plan for re- moving the sign in front of the town

are fundamental. Under community music such
activities fostered as group singing, traing
of song leaders, glee clubs choruses, orchestras
bands, caroling, music week, music memory
contest and many others.
Through the drama department is fostered
amateur plays, throughout the community using
children as well as adults, working same into
programs for neighborhood and city-wide en-
tertainments. pageants and civic festivals, the
organization of drama league and little thea
ter workshop.
Athletics and sports form a large part of
the program. teams and leagues for boys. girls,
men and women. In basket volley, foot and
baseball, field hockey, field meets. horseshoe
pitching, athletic tournaments.
Social recreation will include story telling,
folk games. and the socializing of programs in
schools. neighborhood centers. young peoples
societies and clubs and the training Of volunteer
leaders for conducting games and social parties.
Civic activities. not included in the program
of other agencies or organizations. will be fos-
tered by Community Service Special days eel
ebrations that call for thoughtful planning. pre-
paration and direction such as Thanksgiving,
Christmas. Washington. Lincoln Arbor. Armis-
tice. Flag and others will receive the attention
of this Community Service
Through the department of girls and wo-
mems activities. special attention will be paid~to
fostering the organization of Girl Scouts, Camp
Fire Girls or Woodcraft League thus filling a
long felt need in this community. Attention will
also be given to requests from the older girls
and women for assistance in securing the de-
sired form of pleasure and recreation.
There is no other organization or agency
existing that can serve the community as Com
munity Service. because it does not have a
fixed membership fee, or limit the membership
or activities to any one group. one age. one sex,
1t does not center its activities in one place or
two in the city causing those who care to parti-
cipate to come from distance. it rather takes
he activities to the people, in parks Fairgrounds
schools and ncighborhoods.
Community Service has no big overhead ex-
pense. rather its cost is nominal, being approx
mately about $7.50O0O year and everybody is
potential member. with everybody having
voice in the affairs Of the association.

WHAT REAL COMMUNITY SUGGESTS

Through the splendid community service
campaign which has been so successfully waged
for several weeks under the leadership of encr-
getic Albert Baumberger. the city's leaders have
come to realize its Importance. There are some
people yet who do not know what it means.
What is it?
Hammond Community Service is organized
friendship made practical. II is the medium
through which the residents of the city and
county get together and truly become members
of the Community with a consequent real inter
est in community welfare. prosperity and sta
bility.
Community Service seeks to cooperate with
the Park Board, School Board, with all agencies,
organizations and groups in the furthering and
strengthening Of their own programs, and where
there IS need in the leisure time or recreational
field not filled by any other agency. Community
Service seeksl1 to fill any existing gaps.
It IS to carefully study ways and means of
safeguarding the physical. moral and cultural
life of the citizens. through leisure time recrea-
tional and cultural activities with special en-
phasis on children and the young men and wo-
men, but by no means overlooking the older
persons.
Community Service Is a social clearing
house and stands In the same relation to the
social life of and serves the community as the
Chamber of Commerce functions and serves the
community in its business and Industrial life.
Community Service does not attempt to en-
ter the field Of religious activities; that field
belongs to the churches and such organizations
that concern themselves with religious educa-
ton and religious training, although Community
Services desires to cooperate with all churches
and such organizations In the development of
their social and recreation programs.
The field of Community Service is leisure
time, looking at the problem from the angle of
the entire citizenship of the community, there
FORE it is essential that it needs be nonsectaran,
non-partisan, non-commercia1, and non-sectional,
on this basis representative departments and
committees have been formed to function for the
needs of every individual of Hammond and vi
cinity.
