THANKS FOR THE DOLLAR.

Who is he tonight? Hes one of those men who help you invest your money if you take stock in his views. He comes from a fine old family which has been identified with New Britain for years and years. The factories at the time of his grand father were in swaddling clothes and were classified as infant indus tries. His ancestors lived in the heart of the city. So much for his antecedents. now for him. His place of business. is, when speaking Of Main streets is where the West be- gins, the seat of financial bargain ing. As Wall street is to New York so is the beginning of West Main street 10 New Britain, and the like ness of the silhouette is located midst the bunch. His business calls him to every bank in town, and if you wait long enough in the lobby
 of any one of them. you can find him there talking confdentially to
 the different presidents. The editor saw him coming out of a bank the
 other day and asked him if he was broke, in a twitting sense. He put his hand in his pocket, pulled out two cents and said: "I couldn't be any more broker.' That's not SO good, but it pulled a laugh at the time. and served to dispel the frigid tmoSphore which hovers about
 places where no is the all and all

 in to the president of one of 'em the other day wishing a loan to buy something the likeness had for sale. Bankers are funny people, they can spot liar most any time. which probably explains their lack of con | fidence in neWspapermen. The odi-

TOWN FACES THREE
 ANCIENT PROBLEMS
School, Fire, and Police Dlffl-
 CulGeS to Be Settled
WANT ACTION THIS MONTH
Residents Seek to Dispose of Long, Standing Questions - Exhibit or Summer School Work tomorrow Night - Legion Game Tonight.

Three important steps for the ad- vancelnent of the town are expected 10 be settled by the end of the pres ent month. The school accommoda- tions problem, which has been the source of much discussion during the past year: the fire department controversy that has been before the pubic for three or four years in particular, and the petition for police protection that has been slSn- ed by many of the residents of Ken sington where numerous robberles have taken place in the past four oi five years.
 The school question has been be- fore the voters of the town twice ln the past four months and each time ,he proposed solution was voted down. The original proposition was for a school to be erected on the filling lot, purchased by the town last year as the result of a vote of the townspeople. This year the sam" voters made it very clear that they did not wish to have school bullt on the lot for two reasons: the Slt- uation was not central enough and 1he amount of money for the propos- ed building was too much. At the present time. the school board has a new proposition whereby an addl- ton will be built onto the kenslng- ton Grammar school and changes made in the present school, allowing for eight new rooms and oftlces, gymnasium, and locker rooms. IL is hoped that definite action will be reached at the next meeting of the finance and school boards, which Will assemble on Monday night at the town hall.
 The fire protection question mas been much discussed by the voters of the town. many feeling that vol unteer department would be better for the town than having the New Britain department responsible for answering the alarms from Berlin.
 The New Britain fire board has cancelled the contract that had been in force for ten or more years ahd has offered a new contract to the town, doubling the rate for the first hour and advancing the necessary insurance to S15,O00 from the SlO, 900 specified in the old contract.
 Those in favor of a separate de- partment claim that the insurance rates will be lowered. at least for those living near the station and having city water nearby. Other resi- dents of the town would not be af- fected by the change and would have to support their share of the cost Of the department. they say. East Der lin has no city water at present and would not be benefited by the ereC- ton of a department in the town It has had to pump water from the river in case of fires near enough for this method 10 be practical, and the New Britain department has complained that the bumper is be- ing damaged by unclean water. Resi- dents of East Berlin have stated that if there is a fire department built 1T Berlin. Kensington and East Berlir shauld also have companies in theil sections.
 On July so there will be towr meeting for the purpose of hearing the report of the committee elected at the last meeting to look into thu comparative costs of the two course
