Citizens are considering sending a petition to the Connecticut company, to ask that something be done to im- prove the trolley track bheween Ber- lin and New Britain. Owing to the spring weather the tracks in some places have sunk into the ground and stretched out of place. As cars on this line are operated at a fairly high rate of speed passengers feel they a in constant danger of being bodily in- jured when the car strikes these holes in -the track. Many of the pa trons of the Berlin troliey line find it a hard proposilion to remain in the seat when the trolley is traveling at a fair rate of speed. The track is an old one and has been in need of repair for the past year. The track between the Berlin fair grounds and Damon’s hill is probably the worst stretch. to Present Play.

The committee in charge of the cen- tenary quota campaign in the Metho- | dist church at East Berlin, announces it has gone over the top and will in all probabiiity double the quota. Rev. B.
