Comment Oh Town Display
HE proposed town display has
evoked more comment and suEges-
ions than any proposal in number
OF wears and arguments for and
against are heard daily on the
streets. The latest opinion to be ca
! pressed is that the center OF the
| town needs a lighted tower less than
! 1t docs the improvement of the
| present lighting system. While those
Who hold this opinion are not op-
posed TO the display, they say that
the erection of one in an otherwise
poorly lighted center would be IRON
zeal, and they feel that a white
way would add greatly to the at
traction OF Plainville by acquainting
incoming motorists with the fact
that they are coming into a good
sized and live town. More and bet
ter lights are advocated by these
men, who say that it would be fur
Their help if the present lights We're
cleaned. \ companion suggestion is
that more merchants keep their
store windows lighted during the
evening. as at present only a few
windows are alight after sunset.
A dark center gives poor i'm
precision of town. those who hold
this opinion assert, and they are adj
vocatng that, if the display be
erected, it be properly set off by a
White way.
