C. Elwell of the public ‘utilities commission reserved a decision on the proposed jitney line between New Britain and Kensington ‘after a hearing on the subject was held - this morning at 9 o'clock at Lloyd hall, Kensington. ’ Few of the townspeople turned out, there being but 12 present. Five bus line owners from New Britain at- tended. ' They were Edward French, Bud WMiller, Joseph Nigrelle, DPeter Agostini and a Mr. Poglasek. Each of the five men expressed their desire to take charge of the line, ,promising good service. The necessity for a line was found by the commissioner. None of the residents present opposed the project. It is expected that a line will be started along the route, although the decision of the commissioner will not be known for a few days, He found that the line is desired by residents of the west end of Kensington and it is thought that he will decide in favor of gueh a step. 1t is not known to which applicant the proprietorship will be given. Some time ago the same project was tried out by Mr. French, who ran a bus to Kensington for several months, but it was not a financlal success. The route would be from Central Square, New Britain, to Arch street and Kensington avenue, along Cat Hole road to the American Paper Goods plant and thence to the Spooner house on Percival avenue. People in Kensington, other than the West Enders, were not interested in the project evidentally, as they ex- pressed no desire to attend the meet- ing, when asked this morning if they would be present.

CHURCH OF THE IMMACULATE CONCEPTION structure with the interlor beautified to an extraordinary degree. The church was built through the efforts of the pastor, Rev. Sigismund Wor- oniecki who has built up one of the strongest parishes in the state for a town of the size of Southington.’ He Ihas been here only a short time, but his unceasing work in overcoming difficulties and obstacles has crowned his work with a success unparalleled in the state in recent years. The parish is a fast growing one. Up to a few years ago, it was widely scattered and was without a place of worship. With the advent of the pastor, who at first was attached to St. Thomas' church, conditions have been changed: J"ather Woroniecki entertained the bishop and visiting priests at a ban- quet in the parish house and during the day, he was the recipient of the congratulations of thousands, not only of his own race, but of the various denominations of the town.
