 Relief By Rain
 The heavy rain of last evening and later in the night came as a great relief to farmers in Berlin and Kensington, who have complained that the dry weather of the past few weeks has been destroying crops. Lawns and gardens have been turning yellow and drying ur as result of the extended dry weather. The rain was regarded us saving element for late crops and gardens.
 A large limb was blown off a tree in the yard of the Demine house next to the town hall yester- day afternoon. No one was injured by the limb, which was a large one.
 From ShoolhOuse to Dance Hall Thus may run the story of the old Blue Hills schoolhouse, which was voted to be sold last night at a special town meeting, For there are several kensingtonians who have the idea that a dance hall lo- cated in that remote part of the town would be a good proposition fol the right man to acquire. The | locality would be favorable, for it iG far away from the town center. i There is no dance hall within miles of the school property at pres ent. and many of the residents in 1 that part of the town are believed tC be in favor of the proposition. 1 II is known that the property can i be bought at a reasonable price, as | it is not suited much else, the lot being too small for a home. The i building is suitable for the projecr as there are no partitions The men behind the project are expected to see the selectmen in the near flu. | ture and place an offer with them fol the property.
