We have been enjoying trolley privileges in this place for eleven years, but we have no place such as the energetic business men of Stafford Springs are opening for trolley patrons. It is the purpose of the proprietors to put in lunch and pool room, to have on sale cigars, tobaccoes and temperance drinks, so that while waiting for a trolley physical needs of the kind in- dicated above may be supplied. This trolley waiting room will undoubted- ly be appreciated by the people of Stafford Springs no less than by the general public who visit their en: terprising community by means of the trolley. Doubtless the proprie- tors will add phonograph to their tablishment, and furnish all the latest and popular airs to keep the trolley patrons entertained while waiting for the trolley cars South Manchester News.
