Mrs. Goodrich, formerly a resident here, will be greeted by many friends of other years.
 Safety Zones Needed.
 A suggestion has been made that a space a certain distance each side of where trolley cars stop at Danielson Center be marked off so as to keep automobiles out of that particular zone as a stopping place. With an electric car stopped, some of them remaining five minutes, and autonno- piles lined up on each side of the street. the thoroughfare is completely blocked for the passage of other vehi- cles, which are forced to wait or make a detour by the post office. With an increased number or machines in use here this year, the proposition to make cars park elsewhere than about the center stop is being received with much favor.
