is perhaps no remedy except for the

the contractors to get busy and push
forward the work of Improvement and
to insist that when the paving of the
opposite side of the street is com
menced that not over one thousand
feet of paving blocks be removed at
any one time, and that would give am

large as will be employed on the con-

quent calls of stopping places. for the

Speaking of the Montauk avenue
trolley route reminds that there is ap-
parent neglect on the part of the street
department we'll as the trolley COM
pany in not keeping the street and the
tracks free from an overgrowth or
weeds and grass. Such condition
would not be permitted on country
road in some towns, as prevails in one
OF New London's most travelled boule-
wards. In the roadway that runs. along
such fine estates S the Mitchell and
Palmer there is a wide and long row
Of weeds, two and three feet in height
between the travelled road and the
tracks, while between the rails there
is a long stretch of grass. covered with
oil and kept close cropped by the pas
sage of the many cars. Such neglect
is not in the line of work outlined by
the society whose aim is to make New
London q city beautiful. 1t so hap
pens that this condition is witnessed
by more visitors than If it existed on
almost any other city thoroughfare.
1t may be late in the season to remove
this vegetable growth. but perhaps 1t
may be case of better late than
never
