Fifteen cents, that's what we're all charging, was the greeting the auto bus patrons got as they stepped out of the autos in front of the Fair grounds gate Monday afternoon Yes, that's right. we all got together on Monday morning and decided that we wouldn't run for less than fifteen per.
 Fifteen cents for less than two- mile run Is a little higher than the Norwich public seemed willing to pay on Monday afternoon and they were quite justified in registering a kick to the man at the wheel. Several of the autos were marked "Jitney Bus" too, proclatning to the public that the op- orator would carry passengers at the ive-cent rate, yet when they were landed at the end of the line the man It the wheel said, Fifteen cents, please" One machine had a large agn across the wind shield reading er letters was Franklin Sq. to Greene vile, 5c. In explanation of this ra- ther misleading sign the driver said. 70 that's my regular run but I'm on the fairgrounds line this afternoon" If he can run his car to Greeneville for five cents per passenger and be content to carry three passengers on the average 1t is rather surprising that he would not be more than willing to carry seven passengers Gas he did on monday afternoon )to the fairgrounds for the same rate, as the distance is practically the saf&a. The drivers would not be justified in demanding treble pay for holiday work for the Greeneviile driver was seen operating his car on his regular run at the jit- ney rate after the motorcycle races Monday afternoon. If the drivers con- tinue to charge the fifteen cent rate on srch occasions would it not be wise to replace the Jitney sign with a sign reading "To the Fairgrounds, 15 cents?"
