A VOICE FROM MERIDEN.
 Aleriden, Feb j, 1906.

ACIlucHs tb lpVD. Editor Waterbury Democrat:
 Sir: l wish to voice my sentiments once more regarding the Robbins street trolley extension. I have looked over the ground covered by this extension and can readily see that it will be of no benefit to upper Bank street, Ben Mohr or Town Plot. People living in that territory and working in the north. south. or eastern part of tue city would have to leave for work about an hour earlier. And people wishing to attend St Patrick's church would have 10 leave about two hours ahead of time to get to service. as they would have to ride through Town Plot over West Side hill, down Robbins street. then onto the Oakville line aud transfer or ride up West Main street, then over Bank street. to the church. If line came down Bank street peo- pie could reach the church in say three minutes.
 It is plain to be seen that we must have trolley line up Bank street. We are paying taxes on property in that section and as yet we have received no benefits for those taxes.

BROOKLYN BRIEFS.

"A part of the box factory was moi working today. The Cadets will hold q smoker this
 evening in the Lyceum.
 Mir and Mrs Chapman entertained a number of their friends at their home on Bank street Sunday evening. It is not probable that the engine of No , will be equipped with rubber tires. as the vehicle will in year or two be undoubtedly replaced with a new one.
 The sports of this section are just now interested in the talk that polo may come back to New England next year. in which case Waterbury would be likely to have q team. Polo is on the decline in the western section of the country, but the followers of the game in the east are again clamoring for the sport. Waterbury was always q good polo town, and Brooklyn was well represented at the games. There were several good amateurs in this section and many would welcome sh, game back to this city.
 This evening another mass meet ing of the Brooklyn tax payers will be held in the City hall and all that have the time should see to it that they are present when the fun begins. IS there is a meeting of the board of public works tonight the commissioners will in all probability be in attendance to hear what the speakers from this sec ton have to say. The gathering prom ises to be even more interesting than the former one held in the Lyceum and there will be much more enthusiasm if the hall is packed to the doors. Sev- eral prominent citizens will ne present to say few words and the improve ment committee will state what prog ress it has made since the last meet ing.

cess comes from being good soldiers
for Jesus Christ. The character of a
good soldier of Jesus Christ, must be
the same makeup as that for his coun-
| try's flag. The first character so far is
obedience, duty and privilege to listen
and do the thing commanded. There
is such a thing that the Christian peo-
pie may be SO trained that one may
obey the command of God.
Another element is the spirit of
self forgetfulness. Self stands in the
way. with a fear for dutifulness. The
third clement, courage, one must have
/ the armor of truth, and the shield of
| faith. Nothing is greater than faith.
The only aggressive weapon is the
sword of the spirit, the word of God.
