TROLLEY HEARING .
 IN GREAT HARRINGTON

Continued from page 1
 Lee; w. J. Lamoureaux of South bridge.
 Representative o. c. Bidwell of Great Harrington thanked the com mittee in behalf of the south Berk- shire towns for coming to Berk- shire to look into this matter. He made the point that Great Barring ton, Sheffield and Egremont, are the only towns in Massachusetts that have assessed themselves one per cent for the operation of the street railway. He referred to the strike in August, and the long interval be- fore there was settlement, during which Egremont and Sheffield were deprived of esrvice. He said the trolleys were needed as badly in south Berkshire as in industrial cen- terS.
 Former Senator John B. Hull ex- pressed the same opinion, stating that the people were willing to sup port the bill for "the transportation area", now before the committee. The attendance at. the hearing was an indication, he said, of the inter- est of the people in that question. Many have built homes along the trolley route and industries have started dp, assuming that the trol- leys could be depended upon for | transportation. ese--.-,
 Other speakers were Selectman Robert K. Wheeler of Great Bar rington, chairman of the board, and Selectman William Smith, also for mer Senator Joyner of Great Bar rington. Edward Kelly, clerk of the selectmen, explained what the trolley service had been in the past and was questioned closely by the committee as to the town appropria- tions and taxation for the mainten- nee of trolleys. All these questions he answered intelligently and gave the committee considerable informa- tion on the subject. He was of the personal opinion that the trolley problem was a county matter.
 Egremont was represented at the hearing by George Tinker and E. c. Beck; Sheffield by Frederick Ford, and Canaan by A. W. Krouse.
 Senator Gibbs informed the Ca naan representative that even though the legislature took such | action as ~o1ld restc~e 3ha trolley service in EIaSsaclo :satt's towns, Ca- naan would have to a333r2e respcn- sibility fo~ it's operation to the ste < line. MT. KroL-c stated that while he realized the company had never paid a dividend, the company could never expect to until service was res tored.. The people of the town want the trolley and many have built their homes along the line, thinking it would be permanent institution, the same as the railroads. In reply to a question as to what the town would do for the company, it was stated that North Canaan would un- doubtedly follow plans similar to Massachusetts towns.

 the Cause
 Women often suffer, not knowing the cause.
 Backache, headache, dizziness, nervousness,
 Irregular urinary passages weak ness, languor-
 Each a torture of itself.
 Together hint at weakened kid neys.
 Strike at the root-get to the cause.
 No other remedy more highly en- dorsed than Doan's Kidney Pills. Ask your neighbor!
 Recommended by thousands
 Endorsed at home.
 Here's convincing testimony from Canaan citizen.
 Mrs. L. Wickwire, Railroad St., says: "We have used Doan's Kidney Pills in our family for the past two years and they have always helped us wonderfully. At one time I had terrible backaches, but Doan's Kid ney Pills quickly relieved me. Now, once in awhile, I catch cold in my back, but I take a few doses of Doan's Kidney Pills with excellent results"

WHAT WILL CANAAN DO?

Now that the Governor of Massa- ehusetts has signed the Daylight Saw ing bill and New York has already put the plan into effect, what will Connecticut in general and Canaan in particular do regarding daylight saving? Added to this, the New Ha- ven road will run all it's trains on the daylight saving plan beginning April 25th, giving another good reason why Connecticut should adopt some plan that would work in harmony with nearby states.
 The time for action has arrived in this town and it is up to the business men to get together and call "a meet ng where the matter could be thrashed out to arrive at an under standing that would satisfy the ma jority. The lime and other indus tries must be considered as also must the schools, but there seems to be no reason why a conclusion can not be reached.
 Anyway, let's get together and have 6 definite plan to follow when the proper time comes.

The canvass cf General Wood for the presidential nomination is not getting along any toe we'll. There seems to be no question as to the high character and excellent public record of the general, but it is being found that, unlike Civil war times, military records do not enthuse the mass of voters. Even men who supported the government Loyalty and enthusiastically during the war are not especially impressed with the candidacy of General Wood, simply because present economic conditions have made them sick of anything of a military nature.- Pittsfeld Eagle.
