FAIRFIELD


 Fairfield, July 2s.-The new order of the Connecticut Company relative to stops for taking on or letting off pas sengers at white poles only is now effective. Coming in the wake of the No riding on the running board'' rules it is- doubly annoying. The rum ming board order is looked upon as a good joke. as many cars pass through Fairfield and Southport loaded down to the g1nwales. If the conductors do attempt to crowd the running board passengers on the toes of those seated the order is not needed. The white poles only rule will, however, not be a joke. Here the notorman has his orders to carry out and will pass by. prospective passengers or passen- gers wishing, to alight, stopping only at the white poles. There will, no doubt be many who will be en1barrass- ed by the ruling, but the Conn. Go is attempting to make good time with It's schedules. They believe the public win aid them materially by needing the order Until the public becomes educated there will be considerable abuse heaped upon those in charge. but they are used to such trihes.
