Berlin News TAYLOR AND LEWIS WOULD TAKE JOBS Former to Make No Effort to Be
 Elected as Assessor TAX COLLECTOR STAYS MUM
Masses at St. Paul's on Friday-1ax Collections for Year-Jury List Is Announced-Feet Cut While s"im- niing--Other Items of Interest.

Two Berlin officials whose terms expire this year. Jason M. Taylor. as. sessor, and Charles F. Lewis, collect or of taxes, said today that they would probably accept these positions for another term if they were of- fered, although they did not appear to regard the matter of election too seriously as yet
 Mir. Taylor, who has served the town as assessor for the past nine years, said that he would take the position If 1t were offered to him, but he will make no efforts to secure it. He said it is not job that one would seek or campaign for, but rather a position that would be taken because of sense of duty to the township. He said that he has not given the matter much thought.
 Mir. Taylor has served the town for the past 16 years, first as member of the board of relief and later as one of the board of assessors. He is one of the towns leading citizens and has long been identified with republican affairs, holding place on the repub- lican town committee as repre- sentative from Blue Hills for many years.
 One of his admirers in speaking of his work today said that it would be hard to secure a man for the board of assessors who would work as diligently for the interest of the town as MT. Taylor. To be an as- sessor a man must know the people of the town and must know property values and in both of these require ments Mir. Taylor qualities. He is by occupation a farmer and fruit grower and a native son of Berlin.
 Lewis Doesn't Say Much.
 "Its rather early to think much of that" said Tax Collector Lewis today when asked if he will run for re- election this fall. He said that he probably would take the position if it were offered to him again. but he has not had much time to think the | matter over and is not positive that he will be candidate.
 Berlin residents are familiar with ! Mfr. Lewis work. He has served the | town for several years as prosecutor In the Berlin court and was for about | seven years. tax collector proving ex- tremely successful in this line of work.
 Masses On Friday.
 Friday will be a holy day of ob- ligation in the Catholic church and St. Paul's in Kensington will observe the day with masses at 5:50 and 7:30 g. m, Rev. J. C. Brennan being eelebrant. Confessions will be heard on Thursday evening.
