AFFAIRS MOVING TOWARD ELECTION Boards to M@t Indicating End
 of Fiscal Year DEMOCRATS WILL CAUCUS
Childrens Party Today-Drum Corps to Visit New Hayen-Base- ball Game Postponed Again-Re- union Saturday-Other Items.

The town boards are preparing to close the fiscal year and are making ready for the coming elections, An indication of the restlessness that surrounds the departments of the town is visible with the resignation of Robert II. Deming from the board of assessors. Mir. Deming gives as his reason the fact that he has not sufficient time to give the po- sition the attention 1t demands. His resignation was received yesterday by First Selectman Geogre C. Car ter and it is thought that the with drawal will be accepted and a sue cessor will be nominated at the cau- GUS Monday evening. This position will also be of interest to the demo- cratic party as it recently declared that it is entitled to representation on the board and will make a strong bid for the vacant chair.
 The finance board will hold meeting next Wednesday evening at which time the board of selectmen will also meet. The two boards will go over the budget for the coming year. Sebtember 20 is the date for the public meeting of the board when voters who wish a change or addition to the budget will have the opportunity to plead their case This meeting promises to be well attend ed.
 The selectmen will meet this eve ming at the town hall in an effort to clean up all town business and get the books in shape for the audi tors. After the auditors have gone over the books, the annual report will be printed for the town cleo tions. Tonight's meeting should clean up all unfinished work as the selectmen have been working on the problem of finishing up their duties for several past meetings and 1t is reported that the board is nearing completion of its work.
 With the notice of the republican caucus Monday night, Berlinites are making speculations as to the prop able nominees. The caucus Will De one for the nomination Of town oill- cials only, the caucus for the selec- ton of representatives to the legls- lature coming in October. The most important position open for nomina- ton at Monday nights meeting IS the post of first selectman. George $. Carter, the present holder Of the DC sition, has stated that he Will run asain and his friends and support CTS are confident that his record TOT mast services will see him in the chair for the coming term. Willard l. Alling of Kensington, is also candidate for the job and he has many supporters in Kensington. and Warrington Ridge. East Berlin wi, in all probability be on deck Nonday night, as at the beginning of the election murmurings, the dis trict stated that it would be heatd from this year.
 The democratic caucus has also been called for Monday evening, Tn the court room of the town hall, speculations as to the outcome Of this meeting are as yet not dehnite ls the democrats have not formed ny slate. A good sized gathering is xpected.

BARS JACK DEMPSEY
CONTINUED from Page ~

Dempsey-Tunney match first and was
prepared to go stage if elsewhere,
presumably Boyle's Thirty Acres in
Jersey City, if denied the right to
put it on in New York City.
Richard, who also appeared before
the commission empowered to act for
Dempsey, declared he could not re-
cede from his plan to match the
champion with Tunney. He disclosed
that after signing Dempsey at Fort
Worth, Texas, some time ago, he APP
preached Harry Wills manager on
the subject of signing for title
bout only to be informed that the
negro was still tied up under con-
tracts signed with Chicago and South
Bend, Ind, interests. Subsequently,
the promoter added, he signed
Tunney, advanced money to him as
well as to Dempsey, and felt obi
gated to go through with the match
regardless of the attitude of the New
York commission.

Motion Is Tabled.

Chairman Farley sought to have
Dempsey classed formally as ineligi-
bic as result Of the champions fail
ure to accept an ultimatum, expiring
today, to sign for Wills match, but
his motion to this effect was tabled
In its place the commission decided
it's rules on championships would ap-
ply to Dempsey. Such applications
automatically would make the cham
pion ineligible, since he had not de-
Tended his title in nearly three years,
but as he is not licensed boxer it's
effect remains doubtful. The situa-
ton simply is that the champion is
barred from New York so long as he
does not fight Wills, the recognized
and official challenger.
The next move in the situation
critics agreed, is up to Richard, but
the promoter tonight declined to say
what it would be or whether he would
decide definitely to take the Tunney-
Dempsey battle to Jersey City.

1t was all. SO peaceful and lovely
that for q while Peter forgot that
he had any curiosity. But by and
by tiny splash caught his atten-
ton. He looked down on the water,
but for few moments saw nothing.
Then he made out a little silver line
moving where the shadows We're
blackest. He knew that made that
silver line He knew that some one
was swimming under there. Natur-
ally, he first thought Of Jerry Musk
rat. But in moment he realized that
Jerry would make Il much larger sill
Yer line as he swan. 1t wasn't NOV
ing fast enough to be made by Billy
Mink and it certainly wasn't made by
Little Joe Otter.
Now. who can be swimming over
there in the Black Shadows 2"
thought Peter. "Grandfather Frog is
still on his big green lily pad, TO judge
by that big voice OF his. 1t cannot
be anybody very big who is max
ing such line. Jerry Muskrat
would make much bigger line
Peter didn't take his eyes off that
moving line. Presently it turned
and a few moments later he saw n
little brown head coming out from
the shadows. Peter suddenly sat up
very straight and stared with all his
might. There was just the nose and
top of the head out of water and be-
hind Peter could see that a tiny tall
was moving back and forth. "Whyee.
That looks just like Jerry Muskrat,
only very SMALL" cried Peter. Can
it be? Can it possibly be that Jerry
has had secret over here and
haven't known anything about it?'
The little swimmer was headed
straight toward Peter. If Peter had
sat perfectly still perhaps it would
have come across to where Peter
was. But Peter didn't sit perfectly
still. IN his excitement he moved.
Instantly the little swimmer turned
back and was lost in the shadows.
Peter fairly hugged himself. He had
discovered q secret OF the Smiling
Pool
