day and came TO a decision regarding
signs showing the routes through
Plainville which are 10 be placed Il
the center. The combined committed
decided that the signs should be per
manent ones and projects which wer.
offered will be put through provided
The cost Is not too great.
II Is planned TO place signs In from
OF the Neri Block pointing the diree'
ton out whiting street TO Waterbur,
and New Haven and pointing Out

rington. Bristol, Terryyille and Water
bury. On the corner In front OF the
Russell property, signs will be also
erected showing the way to Water
bury, Meriden and New Haven.
A resolution was presented at the
last town meeting asking for the per-
mission of the voters to have the
selectmen spend 500 for this pur-
pose. The resolution was presented
in order TO get the sentiment OF the
voters. All who spoke on the matter
seemed to think that the need OF signs
was pressing and for that reason the
selectmen should have them erected.
Estimates will be sought on the signs
and the work on them will be started
in the near future.
Another addition in the sign line
which would more than beneht the
town would be to have at the en-
trance of the town sign erected well
coming travellers to Plainville. and
bidding them to call again.
It has been suggested that the
Chamber of Commerce erect these
signs without going to the town Tor
the money. The sign would READ
something like this according 10 those
who are pushing the movement: Ine
p,ainyille Chamber of Commerce We'll
comes You" and one the rear OF the
same board, the words Come Again
