 Building Lines Needed
 kensington residents are banding together to see whether or not some- thing can be done to have building lines established in Berlin. Several realty companies have opened new tracts of land for development and many lots have been sold. The pur- chasers are erecting one and two family homes on these lots but in such a manner that one house is closer to the street than the next one, still another is in a crisscross position and third is directly on the street.
 Residents opposed to such construc- ton claim that the town is growing rapidly and if any lines of beauty are to be maintained it is necessary that a building line law be made and en- forced.
 Any such matter would probab have to come before town meeting and it is quite probabl that a peti- lion will be presented at the annual town meeting next month asking that such lines be established.
