Work begins today on the laying
of three sections of concrete side-
walk in the Town of Darlen. totalling
over 5.0.00 square feet. Two of the
pieces in Barton center have been let
contract: and the other, at Noroten
Iiclghts. is being done by the High-
way Department.
the work is being welcomed. as it
gives sidewalks approaching schools.
The first section. of over 250 run-
ning feet ofrslx-foot wide sidewalk.
was begun this morning by Con-
tractor Salvatore Riolo, ulld extends
from the 'Brummcr place past Louis
Schede's store on the Post road. The
next strip. approximately 300 feet in
length. is being done by Contractor
Dominick l’l'atc of Noroion Heights
and extends on the Post road from
the Log Cabin to the Royie school.
When these two strips are com-
pleted Darien center will have a side-
walk on the north side of the Post
road stretching all the way from the
brook near Cchede's to Brooksidc
avenue.
The Noroion Heights work is be-
ing done by the Town Highway gang
under \Valter Bates. it closes up the
300 feet gap in sidewalk on Noroton
avenue betwee.Linden\avcnue and
the Baker school.
This sidewalk construction pro-
gram. on the Post road at least. has
been held in abeyance for some years
until the permanent construction of
the main highway would give some
indication of the correct height of
the gutters. As far as can be ascer-
taincd it has no bearing on the side-
: walk construction program demand-
ed by the Post Office Department be.
fore Daricn can have a letter carrier.

For the first time in many years
the town departments will have to
submit their budgets before Labor
Day. Many department heads are.
beginning work on their financial
programs for 1926 in order to have
them complete before September I.
It is probable that. with the new de-
nariments of the Town Court and
Police Department. a larger sum
than heretofore will be asked by the
town as a whole.

The affair on the 26th is to be a

te .ding can play.any sort of game

forcibly reminded of the condition of
Lawn avenue of Stamford. With the
construction work on the Post road
past Miller's Bridge. and the detour-
ing of traffic round the Cove. many
drivers are again turning to the con-
crete road over West avenue. This
continues good through Maple ave-
nue. in Glenbrook. but the ear-driver
ohould then turn over to the Spring-
