 BLIND IN STATE

In order to obtain the approximate number of blind persons in Conneci cut, the state board of education of the blind has requested selectmen of towns to send lists, but as yet only a few have responded.
 Of the replies received, there is one concerning Samuel Allen of Bethle- hem, who is 93 years old, and is to- tally blind, Another report, which is from New Milford, reliates to Rob- ert Dodge, who was gassed in France and became blind. It was said at the office of the state board that there is another Connecticut soldier who was made blind as a re- suit of being gassed, but as yet the board has not secured his name.
 i Thirty blind persons had been re- ported up to Wednesday, Dec. 1T While some are rated as poor, others are in fairly good circumstances oliiers support themselTs1 by keeping

company would operate tfens The
 lines to be restored to the Conneeti cut company have always been the
 most paying of the Shore Line sys- tenn. On this account the Connecticut company is not expected to balk at the
 operation of these lines.
 Questioned as to the future of the
 Shore Line Receiver Perkins admitted that it was doubtful. Stating that the
 request to cancel the lease obtained from the Connecticut company was
 one of the steps planned for the best interests of the Shore Line. he added that the remaining lines would be op- erated only if they could show sub stantial profits warranting their op- eration, but that those lines which
 could not be operated with returns sufficient to cover the cost of opera | tipn would also be abandoned.
 | Although no statement to that ef- feet has been made by officials of the
 Shore Line. it is believed in local cir
 cles that the Shore Line company is
 to wind up it's affairs gradually, and lge out of business eventually.
