 The Chamber Of Commerce held an interesting meeting last nigh, when plans were discussed for pro. viding vacations for several New York children who are sent up here by New York papers fund raised for that purpose. Rev A. B. Dew. berry and John E. Lamb were an. pointed by the Chamber of Con, merce to act as officials in the mat. ter and the Commerce Chamber will 1 seek to accommodate as many chil. dren as possible Rev Mir. Dewber. ry, newly appointed pastor of the Methodist church, will seek the co. operation of the other Plainville min isters and an announcement will he made from the pulpits this Sunday in order to get the names of any families in town who will care for any of these children for two weeks It Is probable that the youngsters will arrive in town about the 18th of this month, if arrangements can be made for that date.
 Last year there were seven cared for and Rev. George E. Tyler and Mir. Lamb did all in their power te help them. This year, however, with the assistance of the Chamber ot Commerce, 1t is believed that more can be made happy for the two weeks | period.
 Several of the business men an. nounced at the meeting last night that they were willing to furnish thei, automobiles to convey the children tc their vacation home on their arriva. in Plainville, and would also return 1 them to the station when it came | time to leave. The latest they car | arrive Is the latter part of this montt as they must prepare to return tc school in September
 Last year the seven who were en. tertained at the various homes here were treated royalty.
 Outing Plans Made. A committee also was appointed tc prepare for the annual Chamber of Commerce outing. Burton Phelps was elected head of this committee and he will be assisted by William L. Caf- ferty, William Downham, Edwin H Hills and John E. Lamb. This com mittee will meet at later date It Is not believed that Momauguir will be selected and the general opin- ion is that Double Beach will be chos- en. The committee will try to ar range for Saturday, August 26, as the day for the outing.
 The sidewalk committee reported on the number of sidewalks being laid in town and the resultant inn provement
 letter of thanks was read from the Bristol Chamber of Commerce for efforts to have the upper part of West Main street. starting at Bo- hemia street. put in good condition. Bristol repaired Pine street to the Plainville town line and Plainville fin ished the rest of the road from the town line to Bohemia street.
 Drummers To Compete.
 The members of the Plainville Fife and DAlm corps will journey to Wa terbury tomorrow where they will take part in the parade and field day of the Connecticut Drummer's and Fifers' association. The event prom ses to be one of the largest ever held in some time and there are ap- proximatly 52 drum corps on the en- try list already This will be the thir- ty-seventh annual meeting of the as- sociation and the contests will take place at Roseland in the afternoon.
 There will be 32 exhibitions for which there are offered 55 handsome silver cups as prizes, with gold med als for the individual contestants.
 Shop Seeks Help.
 It is long time since any Help Wanted signs have been hung out in front of Plainville factories and the residents were agreeably sur prised this morning when the Bristol Manufacturing company did this. One of the employees of the plant ripped merrily out with the card and after tacking it up, stood off and read Boys wanted; steady work"
 Tn sign apparently had good effect and although there have been no re- ports of any injuries sustained during the rush, 1t is certain that the steps to the plant will need repairing when the crowd is through. The younger generation of the town is anticipating a glorious future and many called at the office seeking jobs.
