viii be considerable discussion when
the board Of public works meets to-
night.
The telephone company argues that
with the present system subways are
not constructed as fast as private in
terests could guarantee their con-
struetion and points TO the eity's de-
cislon TO place permanent pavement

conduits, on South Main street. per-

coed with the work under an agree
ment 10 have II taken over by the
city at price to be set later.
Under the present system, the city
constructs It's own subways and rents
them to the telephone and electric
light companies. They are charged
rental sufficiently high TO pay inter-
est on the city's investment and on
part of the principal until subways
are entirely paid for.
Those who favor this system point
out that It allows the city to retain (
control OF the streets. there being no
privately owned construction In them.
and II also avoids the building OF
more than one subway in a street.

Odd Fellows Have Large
 Class for Degree Work

The largest class in two years will
 be admitted to the patriarchal degree at the regular bi-monthly meeting of Comstock Encampment, No. 29, l. o. o. F., in Odd Fellows building, Arch street, Friday evening. This is the first lap in the membership contest with E. l.. Dunbar Encampment, No. 32, of Bristol. In 1919 a similar con- test was run and Comstock fur nished Dunbar a turkey dinner a la Kronholm as the losers. About 100 Bristol encampment members, head ed by the New Departure band, came to New Britain, paraded the main streets and proceeded to the Jr. O.. U. A. M. hall where they ate turkey at Comstock's expense. It is Con- stocks turn now and if the members respond to the call for candidates as we'll in the next five months as they have in the first, Comstock can go to Bristol and learn what F. l.. Dun- bar can do in the line of eats. E. A. Danberg will have charge of the de- gree.
