The extension OF David avenue to
South Washington street is now
being considered by the town plan
commission, A petition was re-
ceived and read at the regular
meeting last night from residents
OF David avenue asking for the sc-
ceptance OF the street. Action In
the matter is uncertain, as there
is much to be considered before
anything definite can be done
a map Of David avenue was pre-
pared by the old town plan com
mission with the intention Of carry
ing It through to South Washing
ton street bringing it out by the
old canal AMI filing this IN There
apparently was an understanding
among the properly owners at that
time that they would carry out
this plan, but it vas never put into
execution
The present commission eonsid-
4rs that the street certainly should
he extended, as there is now no
outlet from that section to South
Washington street between Broa
street and the town line road, a
distance of more than a mile. The
section Is growing rapidly and an
outlet TO the west Is sail to be a.
further means OF stimulating eX-
panslon here. II would aid IN the
development of the property, but
would cost property owners some
thing to carry out.
The grade on Trumbull avenue
vas also considered last night No
action vas taken, the matter be-
ing referred 10 the selectmen for
estimation of the cost of such
grading as Is considered necessary.

tale of Voc to unfold TO those Of his
friends who will listen. Last Thurs
day he purchased a new automobile
and reVcllol in its brightness. Sun

with the result that the road in

contortions and 4. trolley car sud
denly loome1 in his path at the cor
ner Of West Main and Church streets
In the resulting collision the new car
lost much Of its fine appearance,
while Smat vas haled into court
here yesterday before Justice Mor-
rift Q. Ryder and fined 500 and
costs for driving while under thc
influence Of LIQUOR. Grand Juror

the day on WHICH individuals
throughout the nation will pause in
the midst Of their busy lives TO con
slider the benefits which have come
80 them during the rast year and
view with pride some Of The &C
cowplishments Of their community
and their state
Without such pause to consider
the meaning of the day, Thanksgjv-
ing is largely SYNONYMOUS with a
day Of Teasing In fact. custom has
dictated this Interpretation since in
the past it has marked tho gathering
Of large family groups, for which
days and often weeks of preparation
were in progress. The feast occu-
pied the greater part Of tine day
and often Numbered ten or twAlve
courses.
Thanksgiving is stl!l = DAY u

number of courses he@n reduced, but
The feast has been somewhat simrN-
