At the police sta- tion Carter seemed to_be under the impression that he had been arrested for nen support of his wife whom he claims lived in Taftville-and this led have been that the service on the South Coventry trolley line would be cut down, making it possible for ene|him. crew to do the work now requiring two crews. This plan, however, would mean that very few trips could be made in a day, a few in the morning and afternoon, and one trip in the ev- ening' from Willimantic to South Cov- entry leaving for the 1latter named place at about 7.15. Robert W. Per- kins, receiver for the Shore Line Elec- tric Railway Company, has notified the ' Willimantic Chamber of Com- merce of the change that is to' come and showed the reason for it by pro- ducing statements of expenditures and receipts from the line. This matter has been condidered by the local chamber and it hag been decided to hold a meeting at the chamber of commerce rooms Friday night which all persons interested are re- quested to be present. A representa- tive of the troliey company will be present and will seek to arrange as perfect a schedule as is possible un- der the present cenditions. Another of those real old time min- strel shows will be staged by the Thread -City Cyclers, and for enjoy- ment there could be no better place to go than to the Loomer Opera House Thanksgiving afternoon or evening.
