been let out as yet, but member O. he committee stated yesterday that in all probability firm will h, awarded the contract in the near flu tnre.
 II is hoped by the executive com mittee that the dirt will be flying thick and fast by the middle of the summer so that the residents may have running water in their homes hv the fall of this year.
 There is nothing 10 stop the com mitter from going ahead on the pro- jcct inasmuch as the people have vot- cd 10 have water and have given the district the right to start the work.
 Some homes in kensirgton have been equipped with apparatus for the installation Of water either with the wells or the running water. If the latter is in town by the fall of this year many plan to wait until that time before connections are made.
 At the fire district meeting it was voted to adopt the plan which would call for the installation of q 12-inch ripe from Towers corner at the New Britain town line to Jacobs corner which is at the Worthington fire dis trict line. This large main will he in- stalled in order to allow for the de- sired pressure in passing the water rom Ror'in street through the Ken sington lines
 To date m plans have hcen made ny the Northngtcn fire district for q meeting of that district to be held to decide what will be done with the water question in Her!in.
 Sentiment in that section of the town however, favors the installa, lion of running water. The Worth 'ngton district has also been granted The right bv an get of the legislature o spend s1on.ooo for the installation rf the system in the town.
 It is possible that the matter will 'e hrcug',t before a meeting Of the district which will he held to decide ,n a ii c year contract for the light ing system.
