Mr.. Wustrack has begun to repair

The matter of rural free delivery is
receiving much attention, and a second
petition is to be sent to Washington,
asking that the evening mail be re-
tanned as at present. r. F. ID. will be a
boon to many of our people, and they
are going to have it. The evening mail
is essential to the happiness and well
fare of Others who are also determined
to have their hearts desire. Of course
there must be certain amount Of OPP
position in order to make things lively.
But Northford is not willing to go back
to the conditions of forty years ago
not in this age of progress!
Apropos of progress, the much desired
trolley line between here and New Ha-

Again we ask those interested in trolley
schemes to cast their eagle glance this
way.
