 Clearing Away the Snow
 The work of clearing away yes terdays four-inch snowfall has been ] carried ou. rapidly and without hitch. practically every street in PIainville being openeI during the night or today. The carly storm was unprecedented and was not ex- pected by the selectmen. but they were not caught unawares. At 7:5o ! o'clock last night, when the snow IiISL SIiO"tu Sl5llS OA elphN'h'N''A' 'i'> f tractor blow was ordered out and | began 10 clear the main highways. With driver and two other men as shovellers the blow was in use all night and day, working in all sections of the town and clearing such widely separated streets 'as Trumbull avenue and Redstone hill. t11o reopi1-fl at the office of the selectmen today complimenting them upon their promptness and efficiency in break , ing open the roads.
 Railroad and trolley schedules were maintained well throughout l yesterday. The electric railways 1 kept their cars on the move, and while the cars were several minutes behind schedule, there was no break In the service. The New Ha- ven road trains were almost on l time and the mails were only q trihe late. The heavy blow fell on automobiles, the combined cold i weather and snowstorm rendering many cars useless. Garagemen | reaped a harvest towing out cars stuck in snowdrifts and pulling in 1 frozen machines. Many minor ac- cidents occurred, caused by the slip pery going underwheel, but they were mostly slight bumps and side swipings.
 The thermometer dove to new low for the winter, the mercury in the tube outside of Thralls drug store on Central square registering 1 eight degrees above zero. This is 1 thought to be a record for early December.
 Blowtorch Causes Fire A blowtorch being used to thaw out frozen pipes cused a fire at the home of David Pereau on Prentiss street yesterday morning. but no serious damage was done, Mir. Per eau was using the torch to thaw out the blocked pipes. and the flame caught the partition where he could not extinguish it. The fire department was called and soon subdued the blaze.
