 Patrolman James Darling has been assigned to duty at the poll ing place.
 Both parties will set up district headquarters from which workers and cars will be directed and every effort will be made to get out the largest possible vote.
 Attention is also called to the fact that two amendments to the state construction are to be voted upon tomorrow and that these questions appear just above the regular party levers on the voting machines. Preference may be ex- pressed by pushing the "yes" or mo" buttons. .# The first question concerns ab- solute voting and if carried will permit voters who must be out or the city or state on election day, or those who are unable to get to the polls because of illness or other disa bility, to vote by mailing their ballots to properly qualified offic- ials. The other question would per init assistant town clerks to issue oaths, a perrogative which they do not hold at this time.
