CAUS7IC REPARTEE AT TOWN MEETING SeleCtInan Carter Under Fire on
 Cost Of Roads LEGAL BILLS QUESTIONED
Bank Elects Officers at Annual Meetlng-Nisitors Abroad Return
 to Town-D. \. R. to Hold Open Mccting-Other Items of Interest

''The selectmen of this town have a contract with the voters," said James J. Fitzsimmons Of Kenslng- ton in a scathing donunciation. of First Solectman George B. Carter at last evenings annual town meeting held in the town hall. T do not how that contract can be broken except by impeachment I believe the select mon should realize the public trust resting upon them and endcaNor 10 save tho town as much money as they possibly can
 The speech followed a lengthy harangue by John Carbo on the ap- propriation of Sl6,0oO for the care of roads and bridges, MT. Carbo maintained that for the amount of the appropriation granted the roads should receive tHtter care. He fur thcr stated that he would accept a contract for s1O,0Oo and post bond of 5000 for the care of the town roads.
 The announcement came as a surprise and was rapidly followed by the rejection. of the proposed ap- prOpriation of $16.000 by vote of Il to 12. After that it was voted that selectmen meet with Mir. CarbO to draw Up a legal contract for the care of roads. This motion passed by a vote of 40 to Il.
 Selcctman Carter stated that there was an outstanding contract with must be paid, running from April 1 :, 1927 to April 1. 1928. It was at this point that litZsimmons replied that the selectmon had a contract with the voters. His remarks were greet cd with applause.
 Selectman Carter fought bitterly against the proposed move, stating that the roads received all the at tention that could be given them. He mentioned that John Moore of Ken sington had approached him with a new fangled" idea which would save the town money on road oiing but that 1t was not practical. Moore replied that the new fangled" ideas were facts and pointed outsthat the town was paying too much money per gallon for it's road oil
 How much of the Stanley Works tune did you use up 10 figure that out"?" replied Carter hotly, as Mod orator Lester Deming banged the gavel for order.
 Previous 10 the roads and bridges battle, Thomas Emerson Of kcnsing- ton stirred up interest when he arose 10 question the appropriation under the heading of general town govern ment, demanding to know under what heading the expert services of Mir. Crundle. Mr. Shields and Mir Carlson were listed. The three men, toned attorneys gave testimony during the case of Emerson vs. the Town of Berlin when the kensng- ton resident sued the town for a re duction of taxes. It was pointed out nat the services of the three men toned men were listed under the leading of Donald Gaffncy in the emergency fund.

Southern cities TO supply the demand

The plumosus fern IL Used ex-
clusively by florists in the manufac-

the beautiful fronds is continuous.
and the plants find a ready sale in

The plants are grown under a lathe
"two-thirds" shade. and are never
exposed TO the strong sunlight. Soil

production OF this variety. and flor

tive, who expressed himself as well

campment at Paso Real in July. Over
hundred Valley Scouts were in
attendance, and the work accomp-
lished exceeded all expectations,
sc0utmasters state.
Organization OF Boy Scout troops
has been effected in almost all Val
ley towns, and during the winter and
spring efforts will be directed tow
ard interesting boys OF proper age in
Scout activities. Rotary, Kiwanis

organizations, are cooperating with
the scout executives in this effort,

$50 merit badge tssts were passed by
first class Scouts, in swimming. life
saving. electricity. pioneering, auto
mobile mechanics, civics, etc. The
civics merit badge alone required
twelve hours Of effort to pass.
Huge quantities of plain. whole
