It appears that the next morsel to attract the downtown eye will be um- brellas and stands for the traffic po- licemen. This is not only a good idea, but one hordering on byilliance. The stands will lend the proper ele ment of dignity to the official position and standing of the minions of the law whose duty it is to see that motor- ists obey the signals; while the um- brellas—probably of some gaudy, vio- lent hue so that no one possibly can miss seeing them—will prevent the sun’s rays on a hot day from melting the sweltering policeman. This is a scheme that will meet with popular approval, Traffic policemen should not be compelled to be unpro- tected from the sun while surrounded by a sea of hot asphalt. The umbrel- las will likewise be valuable aids on a rainy day, preventing the raindrops from spoiling the cop's disposition a making him wish he were home in a dry climate. Painting the street traflic every week instead of every weeks, also may be a reality RAFIFIC goetting . Bearcely morc had lines three soon. The commissioners have as good eyes | as the general publie, and they have noticed what is patent to the eyes of all beholders—that it is expecting much of the white mush used in painting the lines to expect them to remain distinguishable for three weeks. That the work should be done every week appears entirely necessary. It will make them prominent enough to prevent folks from missing them. As it is, on or about the beginning of the third week, if not the second, a part of the peripatetic populace gets tired of looking for the white lines gives up and becomes jay walkers. The commissioners can make no mis- take by keeping the white lines white, and not permittiag them to take on a camouflage. The cryptic words, which have been painted on the walks in the downtown section, is another sterling idea that meets with general «approval. Those persons who are not busy looking in shop windows will be sure to be looking on the sidewalks and can't fail to notice the artistic wrign painting. It will also emphasize to them that they should watch their steps and pathways their steps travel while they are in the busy marts of downtown New Britain, These efforts unquestionably Meeting with the approval of citizens. The avalanche of automobhiles has forced the city to adopt rigld trafic regulations; rules must also be adopt- the “cross here, the are ed whereby equally numerous pedestrians are jockeyed into co- operating with modern twentieth cen- tury methods.
