Development has been steady and Rasitive. The past has demonstrated | the possibilities ang accorded the most substantial kind of assurance to the future. A steady growth is ome of | the best indications of a healthy one. It hes been pocsible to demonstrate this condition so positively because of | the thorough mammer in which the| Bulletin oovc~= 1's territory, and the magnificent shoi ing made by eastern Connecticut in the mercantile, jobbins and bapking lines, owes a good share of its success to the advertizers who have so well covered the field through ‘the Bulletin and thereby reaped and | May what has | proved a recora breaking business year be only the beginainz of bisge: and greater things for Mis end of tha state.

As already in- dicated, it is Nkely that there will be many complaints, but the justification of them can only be determined by the actual operation. It is in that that the faults will show. The public has a part to play in the starting of this new service and they will doubtless realize they can do much to help make the venture a success. Theory might be advanced for decades but the actual operations can only be determined by setting the service in motion. Now that that im- portant difficulty has been surmounted the shortcomings and failures can be found and remedied.

The world has applied electricity and steam, built a few billion dollars’ worth of railroads, erected a thousand or so square miles of manufacturing plant, forced Niagara to work for a living. We talk across con- tinents, we chat with ships at sea; transatlantic schedule has been reduced from five months to five days; we em- balm voices and paint action; mighty songs are now deathless and glorious spectacles are conserved for The novice produces the works of the masters by the aid of our Player Pianos. We write history with talking machines and moving picture cameras. Now think of what we may look for in the future. Vision is the mightiest force of this era, and we cast the lot of ou eternity.
