A PROSPEROUS YEAR.
PayroIIs Increased in Various Manu- featuring ments-lncreased Deposits in Banks.

With the end of 1913 close at hand, reviewers of KiIlinglys business and manufacturing transactions during the year find that there was good ground for the rosy predictions made for the new year, at the end of 1912. If 1914 proves as good a business year as has 1913 for the majority of inter ests here, there will not be much com plaint. PayrOlls have increased in va rious manufacturing establishments in 9 very agreeable way, though there have been one or two instances where a shrinkage of a slight nature is not ed, but on the whole there has been a substantial gain.
 Hast TIillingly and WilliamsVille Nave come to the forefront this year as sec tiens of the town where industries are developing. At East Killingly the In- teFnatienal Cotton company plant has made arrangements for doubling it's capacity and at WilliamsvilIe the plant of the Kiliingly Manufacturing com pany has passed through the upbuild- ing stage and is now in operation, giv- ing employment to q constantly in creasing number of operatives.
 Full time has been the rule In all of the mills and in three plants night and day forces have been at work, prac- ticall5- doubling up the payFeiis, This satisfactory operation of the Hanu- featuring plants, en which many other business interests of the toWa are chiefly dependent fer success. has meant steady employment fer labor and much money fer circulation,
 The prosperous condition ef the com : munity is also reflected in the amount of the transactions at the pestefflce and at the WindhaH County National bank, where ens es the very best years

 Need of Trolley Waiting Room
 During Christmas week and the Sat- urday before, when the trolley service was somewhat delayed, especially the goth, when no cars came hpto the vil- lage from 4.15 to GAS D. m, the lack of a trolley waiting room was greatly felt The people of Yantic and Fitch vile and hundreds who use the trolley from here weekly are force dto wait in the open when there is such de- lay. 1t would meet public require nents if a small waiting station would be erected by the Shore Line company for the convenience of patrons. Auto mobiles are getting many calls by peo- pie who do not care to remain in the open and quite an auto service is car- ried on between Fitchville and Nor wich in the winter for that reason.
 Got Off Moving Car.
 Eugene Manning got a bad fall when getting off a moving electric car the evening of Dec 24. He had sev- eral bundles in his arms which were damaged and his suit was ruined. He has been laid up since with injuries.
