TEST OF zONING ACT
 IN SUPERIOR COURT
(Continued from First Page)

A proviso then states that this shall not prohibit the conduct Of q professional office or the incidental keeping of lodgers or boarders by q resident occupant in the residence district under certain limitations
 We think the action should be read as thought it said "one dwelling for not more than one family or for more than one housekeeping unit. In other words. more than one family IS forbidden to use or occupy a house in district 4 except as affocfyd by the proviso following the lan- guage quoted
 Section 12 relating 10 the en- torcement Of the zoning ordinance makes it the duty of the building commission to require applications for building permits which not only j. show plans but also such other in formation as may he necessary to Indicate whether the proposed con- Istruction and use" are in con- tormtty with all the provisions of the ordinance and no building can he occupied until the building commis- sion has, after the erection of the building, issued certificate of oc- .cupancy, which certificate shall show whether such building and the proposed use thereof" are in conformity with the provisions of the ordinance.
 Tt is therefore. the duty of the building commission and this board lon appeal to consider the proposed use Of the building as well as the paper plans and specifications and If ii is found that it Is proposed 10 use a building for two families or two housekeeping units notwith- standing that the plans on their face call for what in common lan- guage would be called a one family house, the application for the buiId- ing permit should be denied upon that ground. It is, therefore. not alone thequestion of what the plans are or whot, as an academic ques- tion, We would call the proposed house, if we read the plans only. whether one family house or a two family house-the question goes farther and involves the proposed use Of the building and the real in- tention of the parties in building 1t.
 From the testimony. the admis- sions made at the hearing and from the history of the case, it seems evident that the same two families which started out to build a conven- tional two family house and which intended to occupy if as two families, have now, under the compulsion of their reading of the law. changed the plans of the house without changing the proposed occupancy.
 Reluctantly and only so far as they thought necessary, and with as little expense as possible, they have made the minimum changes to get, as they supposed, q permit to finish the building so that they can ac- complish the purpose which they have had in mind from the start namely to occupy the building with two families. Their attempted com pliance with the law has been per- functory and not real--a compliance with the letter as they supposed but in our opinion an infraction of the spirit and intention of the law.
 Tn our opinion both the build ing commission and the applicant
 have taken q wrong view of the

"Oh." suddenly exclaimed Mrs. Cantalupo, q forgot" and she dropped her sewing on g chair and rushed indoors to attend to some neglected household duty.
 Roberto, left to himself. crawled to the edge of the tank. There, in the sunshot waters, he watched the goldfish darting to and fro. One big fellow, more audacious than the rest, swimmed along almost on the surface, his dorsal fin sparkling like q jewel.
 Roberto stretched out chubby hand, lost his balance and fell.
 Fifteen minutes later Mrs. Can talupo returned 10 the yard and looked for Roberto. She found him in the pool among the goldfish dead.
