laF la which, among other things na gaya !, as his opinion that sur rounding aaazpap.rs had ba-- keep sa,t~ paws off Pgainvlla; that small .3~as arg good places 10 live in; taa. small towns are the hope Of the z.a.-; that small towns need no criticisms from the large towns and tat they don't appreciate being looked down apon. e,c.
 Ero,a-r Henry mentioned no aamas and Be do 10. know wha; particular journals Of information a4 was referring to, However, we ara wiling 70 assume he included these columns and tha news col umrs 1T the category Of his mild -.r.ct4r-s. and thus fortified with q reasonable halj4f in tha premises,
 WE au5a to yield an adI.ada to the alzess<iog.
 There was the item about the proposed plalngili4 town court. This .ourual opfua5 such q step forward would Ie in tho interest Of Plain yllle. 4 b.u to raa. effect was pre- -eatea u fha Legislature and was .aumatliy dircAed, some mystery at tending the wreck. Thousands of people in Ilainyilla favored the town court plan; they thought it looked progressive. 10 say the least and
 ro agree perfectly with plainviNe residents as q whole that progress is desirable attribute in a towns history. We do not know how Broth or Harrv stood on this town court bin. The fact apparently lined up this way: The Chamber Of Com nerco. of which Brother Henry is
 president, appointed . committee to work in favor Of the plan-let that sink in. they were favorable toward the plan, not opposed 10 f. Then q . itu was prepared for the Legisla- 'ure without consulting the (. of 1 =. Somebody evidently believed in quick action. Tho mystery then started. and the bill vas killed. To ltnts day nobody in plainyille seems 70 know exactly how this happen ed. The common people in the town seemed 10 be very grateful for th" | perfectly mild questioning that the i lncidont aroused.
 Then there was the incident Of 1 the burning of tho Hart home on the 1 p'ainyille road. l. was shown that . The Plainytle Water company had l bern asked to provide water main | in that vicinity and had refused. ! possibly because of tho outlay nee
 sssary; and fl Was shown that the ! water company having sort Of moagpolis,ic contract with the town I Lad refused 10 permit the New Prir- i ain water system to be 'appad-We ! don't know why except that per ! haps it would have been regarded
 a- lad precedent. After the fire
 had destroyed the house it vas a . matter Of extreme public interest in | plainliIle 70 take stock of the fi"c water situation. To comment upon ] this was highly pleasing to the town l dwellnrs-to everyone. in fact, cN-
 cop. the TlainyilIa Watcr company.
 Everyone could readily understand
 ,ha. the water company disliked
 "outstde interference" in such q
 matter
 l pIInsilla has no newspaper; this
 paper is it's best available source
 of local information. Scarcely any one in the town outside of the mon . directly concerned would know what
 is trauspiiing in the C. Of (. itself what il is doing 10 aid the town and 1 what is policies ar. were t not
 for inc information printed in this
 newspaper. which covers Plainyill" ! thoroughly If Brother Henry in Gudcd this newspaper in his s'ric- 'ures-wlich We trust he did not-~
 it was like saying inc home 10" A
 paper should quit touching upon
 local affairs This naturally would he thc quintcasrnce Of unreasonable
 ness, and wo don't think t'c C. of =. wants any such thing to happen. What eyor is spoken about Plain
 vile IS done in q spirit Of helpful ness. Almost everyone speaks well of tho town and iIs prospects. Ii
 IS so close to New Britain it Is like
 a suburb and iunumerable people o' ,he town are employed in New Brit
 ain. and som" New Brirain!tcs are
 employed in plam,jlle. When V" in
 New Britain think or Plaiuyille il is like thinking of B'NIdore; and unless one us,s an automobile, it is
 sight easier 10 got from New Brit
 ain to rlainyiIle than from Ne" Britain Center 10 some other parts
 Of New Britain and the ride tal,o'
 less time.
 Helping Pmiuyilo 10 solve tt . problems is part Of our business. No . help that Is tiuctmed with how New , Britain would like 70 sre these prob t. Ioms solved. but how fl appears the,
