The entire rearrangement of traf- flc through Central Square involving the creation of an {sle of sufety, is planned by the selectmen and will be carried out as soon as conditions will permit, First Sclect- man Willlam J. Johnson stated thig morning. The square was looked over yesterday morning by Mr. Johnson and a Connecticut Co, rep- resentative, and the plan were worked therm, The trolley stop at the end of East Maln street wil Ibe moved and established In the center of the square, fust west of where the traf- fie “dummy” is now located. It fis felt that the present distance tween the end o' track of the B tol line and the spot where the New Britain-bound cars wait. is too great, especlally as most of it Is across the wide street intersection where traffic is heavy, making it necessary to cross and recross the street several times. The new stop will be locat- ed nearer the West Main street line and with less roadway between car and curb. The cars will take pas- sengers on the left or north side in- stead of the opposite as herctofore, The silent policeman or “dummy’ | Will be moved to the north and west | and placed across the trolly freight | track. This will allow plenty of pass between | dummy and tro] and, while wid- | ening the sweeping eurve for New | Britain-Southington traffic, it will cut down the corner for Bristol- New Britain cars An isle of safety will be st off | on the north side of the trolley stop fand win protected by chains. The chain will extent across the | trolley switch, over which there is little traffic, hut provision hooking it to allow the trolley freight cars to pass will be made. The result of this revamping of Central Square, Mr. Johnson be- lieves, will be to make for much greater convenience and safety for the street car patrons, Golden Wedding Tax Collector and Mrs. Willis Hemingway of 166 West | street quietly observed the i ver: out between to be for A7 Main th an- v of their wedding Wedn hey were married in Terry- wary 6, 1876, Mr. Hem. has been connected with the ¢ business as employe or em- ployer since he was 14 years old and { bas conducted his own provision | establishment since 1884, being now located on West Main strect. has heen tax collector of Plainville for the pas s and has car- | ried out his duties in that office so wificiently satis been named by both major politic parties for a number of year has been unopposed at th elections.

From a position of humble uscfulness in the slap-stick comedy | factory lie has risen to a position of dignity and power in serious film drama. The gag man used to be the fel- low who, during the filming of a funny two-recler, jumped to his feet with sudden inspiration and exclaim- ed: “I have it! While the Sheriff s making love to the Girl, Charlie hits him in the face with a ceatard ple That ought to get a good laugh.” Since that distant era of film hua mor the gag man has had to think up geveral new ones. He was {gnor- ed by the products of feature ms, however, until comedy stars llke Harold Lloyd and Charlie Chaplin began making featurc. Iength comedies. Then some one call- ed in a gag man to try his hand on a dull drama which everything else had failed to save from despondency. He injected several comie sequences and the result was miraculous, The sinking story was re-floated and made port as a hilarious comedy. drama.
