Inc changes in effect yesterday on the

naug nave caused more or less dissatis-
faction. as II is the generally expressed
opinion that the running of the ears on a
schedule OF intervals two hours apart will

Tor such persons as find IL necessary TO
Visit the town hall at Apponaug. and
there is much grumbling.

meeting at Buttonwoods with the car

cally additional service between the ter
