Norwich bulletin., 1921-07-14

sion has decided that the operation of the line is in competition with the trol- ley road, so bingo for tt3es bus line, iuss- far as running to Danielson. is concern ed, and Putnam now has the same oil- portunity with only few handicaps Of getting Goodyear business as Danielson nas, for Goodyear people will have to take trolley car to get either to Putnam or Danielson whereas the buses formerly brought them direct without change to Danielson.
 Danielson people will not look with particular favor. if with any at all, on the ruling of the Goodyear buses out of Danielson. It's dose of bitter med;cine and apt to prove a mighty expensive one 1 for lccal business interests.
 | The Bulletin this morning desires to say some thing 1audatorya of East Killing | ly one of the most picturesquely beauti- l ful sections of eastern Connecticut. East | hillingly is being malfgned. A recent l instance has to do with the idea of q. woman. resident in another Windham county town, who has been on the verge 1 of giving up her plan to locate in East i KilIingly because she has become con vinced through some means or other that ] it is a wild border community, much 1 like the boom towns of the west in earli- CT days. Nothing could be much fartler from the truth.
 As community East Killingly is as | peaceful and orderly as any in the state It produces less crime and lawlessness than almost any other village of it's pro- portions in this vicinity Its people are kindly, neighborly and liberal. The town records will show that KilIingly pays less for pauperism in East Killingly than ] in almost any other quarter of the town, population considered.
 More women live alone. their families gone than in any other part of the town, and they are unmolested and unterritied. Its streets are safe by day and by night. and women walk them without fear of i molestation. Its people are industrious happy and good to know.
 The fact that it is on the border of two states in no way affects the safety and security of it's people. Why there should be a persistent undercurrent of misrepresentation Is difficult to under stand
 East Killinsly is not composed of bar barians. but of the same type of average every day folk that one finds in towns and cities the country over. They. are engaged in agriculture and industry and thoroughly alive to the problems and duties of the day.
 East Killingly is really. a delightful community of good folks living in a gen of a location and it's people neither eat 'em anve or hornswaggle others out O their just dues. The community deserve! to have these worthy things said of i to counteract much talk best rated a! foolishness.
