DANIELsON

As promised. the Shore Line Elec- tric Railway company resumed ser vice, hourly, between Central Village and Dayville, Tuesday. The frst day riding was not heavy, and this was attributed in some degree to the fact that many did not know the cars would be running and by others to the fact that lack of through service to Putnam kept many off the cars.
 It was stated Tuesday afternoon that the line had been opened as far north as Putnam and that it was hoped that cars would be running through regularly to that city today Wednesday,.
 The return of the tfolleys brought more people into Danielson than have been seen here on any day but Sat urday for weeks. These out of town buyers came from Central Village and Wauregan and there were others from Elmville and Dayville.
 Supt. Hope of the lecal lines of the trolley company said that he consid- cred the riding of the day very good considering that, so little certain ad- vance notice had been given of the resumption of service.
 He has recommended, he said. that an hourly service be maintained on the local lines as means of pro- viding such a service as will please the public and the indications were on Tuesday were that this plan would be adhered to until it can be definitely determined whether towns | hereabouts really want trolley ser vice or whether reduced service will suffice, or whether it may be neces- sary in the not distant future to abandon the line entirely, as is now proposed with a section of the Nor wich- Westerly road. The answer rests with the public, trolley officials say I If they patrehize the road the com 1 pany will furnish ample service; if | there is no patronage, or little patron | age, the public cannot blame the | company for any action that may be l necessary to protect itself from fur tber losses.
 1 Operators of buses seemed not al | all worried by the return of the troll leys. The machines kept to their reg ular schedules Tuesday and were do- 1 ing thriving business. More
 buses. instead of fewer, are prom l ised for runs out of Danielson within a short time.
 In advocacy of advancing the fee oi | the collector of town taxes from l three quarters of one per cent. to ont l per cent. of the amount collected il | was explained to the adjourned an | nual town meeting that Killingly wal | one of a very few towns of it's size | and importance in this state who pay as little as three quarters of one pei | cent. to it's tax collectors. That tht | effort that must be put forth by tho collector of taxes is well worth one | per cent. of the amount he collect. seemed to be agreed upon in the minds of those attending the meet | ing, for there were no votes oppos ing the advance in fee.
