It has not yet been definitely declded whether it s advisable to operate two-men cars during the rush hours, however, as the company is dublous about handling rush trafc in such a large city entirely with one-man contraptions, Retrenchment plans include the discontinuance of four county lines which once were highly paying | propositions, but which have been sadly neglected by the public since the use of automobiles became cora- mon and because bus lines were per- mitted to compete with the trolley company, which is permissible in! Massachusetts, It a similar condition existed in Connecticut as to lack of control of bus line competition with trolley lines, a large percentage of the vil-| lage lines of the Copnecticut com- | pany would be driven to the wall in |a short time. The attitiide of the public utllity commissions in Massa- chusetts and Connecticut differs on this point, how in the Bay State competition under certain cir- cumstances appears to be permitted, while in the Nutmeg State direct competition with the trolleys is not allowed, and even the New Haven railroad chips in with objections against bus lines occasionally. The Connecticut system will tend to per- mit the trolley lines fto sur- Vive longer; the Massachusctts sys- tem is in the nature of a death blow to lifies attempting to serve the smaller cities and sections.

Doubtless I am clever in certain directions; my talent has enabled me to cut a figure in my profession in London. “But a man may, like Don Quixote, be clever enough to cut a figure and yet be stark mad. A critic has described me, with deadly acuteness, as having ‘a kindly dislike of ‘my fellow creatures.

Doubtless if the acts and opinicns of any one of us were set down accurately he weuld have hard work to explain his sanity. This is because no man is ever consistent. In the first place, gfowth and advancement are fatal to consistency. Just where the line is to be drawn renders every man anti-soclal in his tendency, if so dangerous that he should belocked up it is hard to say. It will'be & question that it will be impossible for statutes to define, but must always remain for the jury to determine.
