Soon after the city employe started to batter his way through the wall bricks began to rain down into the office of the board of assessors, two floors below. A shower of brick and mortar popped out of-the fireplace onto the floor, accompanied by a cloud of sool. An obliging assistant janitor secured b could 1y on his way. was recalled, as bricks began to down again and the office air was black with dust from the firéplace. An investigation was commenced and it was discoverel that the amateur ma- son had been unwittingly smashing in the chimney and had succeeded in breaking through a hole sufficiently large to accommodate a Ford. It was only after considerable argument that he was persuaded to desist, as He was beginning to like the job. Tt is said that the city paid a pretty penny to a real mason for repairving the damage. e Shipping by motor, the practicabil- of which was thoroughly demon- strated during the war, i3 becoming even more popular under the stress of conditions brought about by peace. The business man who thought his troubles would be ended when the | enemy signed the armistice terms on the dotted line soon discovered that it is always possible for conditions to be worse than those which immediately confront him. Labor strikes in port cities have caused a certain amount of inland freight stagnation due to em- bargoes on the railroads and it has been necessary to call the gas steed into action to make the best of an em- barrassing situation. Shipments to New York ecity, where lie the ocean grevhounds, are by no means unusual and during the recent unpleasantness between employers and the longsharemen the automobile played an important part in keeping New Britain’s hardware products fiy- ing toward the consumers. Moving household: goods by automo- bile has also become quite common. Migrating, according to modern ideas, consists of boosting the victrola, the twin beds and other necessary house- hold furniture into a gasaline van, placing the Liberty bonds safely in the inside pocket and saving ‘‘Home, Jame and sometimes this com- mand means a jaunt of several hun- dred miles. One such trip was made last week between New Britian and Elmira, N. Y. For commarclal purposes the auto truck seems to have a bright future.
