 ], No Maximum Price.
 l Plainville is one of the few com munities of the state where there has been no disagreement over the price Of anthracite. In almost every other city or town maximum prices have been established and there has been grave question as to the benefits that have accrued through the decision of fuel administrators to fix a figure at which dealers are expected to retail ! coal. In some instances, dealers have been persuaded to fix figure which is below what they claim is rock bot | tom prices under present conditions. l Rather than appear before the public as profiteers, they have not purcha sed anthracite at the mines at a figure that would not allow them to come within the maximum price fixed by the administrator. and as result their patrons have suffered the loss of coal entirely.
 | Nine Cars Yesterday. | There has been no interference with the dealers of this town. They have | purchased at prices that allow them to sell below the average maximum l figure throughout the state and have purchased in such quantities that there has been no waiting for the filling of orders, it Is reported Nine cars reached the city yesterday and were promptly unloaded.
 Armistice Day Plans.
 The committee in charge of the annual Armistice Day observance is in receipt of cash donation from the Bristol Manufacturing company, accompanied by request that the funds be expended in connection with the parade and festivities that are now being planned. A request had been forwarded to the concern asking that cooperation be given. It was suggested that one of the company's trucks be decorated to serve as float. Finding that this will not be possible, the company decided upon the cash dorfation which was acceptable, to say the least.

 Football Sunday.
 Roth local football teams, the All Plainville and the Crimson outfits, will don the spangles Sunday after noon, the former outfit going to Mid dletown where one of the River City's fastest clubs will be taken on, while the Crimsons will play on the local field.
