Smith General Mention.
Oneyvle Branch Of the Providence at Heernans
News Store IS Hartford avenue. Telephone 4o-Wes.

There Is movement on foot 10 have
the olneyville Business Mems associa-
ton take up and agitate the question OF
station has become more prominent. The
present depot at Plainfeld street Is just
a little better than shed and has no
accommodations whatever other than a
store and settler or two.
From the way the force has to hustle
about the station II would seem as n
another man would not be amiss. for the
force Is no larger now than II was when
there was not much more that a quarter
OF the traffic that there Is here now.
The citizens bearing in mind tnat
should they desire TO have express pack
ages come to this vicinity they should
have them plainly marked Johnston. In
stead OF Olneyville as the express COM
panies have not as yet changed me sta
ton from Johnston TO Olneyvflle.
