METUCHEN bonneville"
TROLLEY HAS COME BACK

METUCHEN. Jan. 12:-Like unto
the ~proverbial cat, the famous
bonneville trolley has come back!
How long this antidiluvian ances-,
tor of the modern trolley car will
continue ON its half-mile run out
Main street is now a question that
is unanswerable. The bonneville
contraption which went a long ways
toward putting Metuchen on the
map, owing to the publicity given 1t
by out-of-town autoists who hap
pened to see it and its n man crew
in operation, was withdrawn from
active service" the first of this
week and in its place appeared a
modern, up-to-date 1921 model
honest to goodness" trolley a
with all of the latest improvements.
This trolley travelled rel the
short route for a day and there was
a grand rush for seats in it. There
was as much difference riding in 1t
and the bonneville car as there is
in riding in an upholstered limou-
sine and on a blackboard. All went
well until the rain came.
1t must be remembered the Toon-
erville trolley was running when the
country was las wet as the ocean,"
whereas the new trolley was built
at a time when the country was
dry" Consequently the flood at
the northern end of the line on
Main street where the tracks end
played havoc with the new car
In order to make it operate prop
erly sand had to be put on the rails.
1t was explained. and as the rails
We're under water this was made
impossible. AS a means of solving
the situation the new car was with
drawn and this morning the Tooner-
VILE trolley a again in action.

Upon reconsideration, however, It
was generally conceded that II this

great need OF such an Institution
here. That 1t was merely q question
OF location, was not denied. Upon
the suggestion Of Mrs. Parsons, IL
was decided that q committee get IN

for the venereal clinic there. IL pos
sible. 1t 10 known that at the pres

taken up, but the health commits
sioners were In accord when 1t was
thought advisable that the hospi-
tai consider this phase OF the work
in its next attempt to build which
IL Is thought would be soon, because
OF the crowded condition existing In
the hospital at the present time. The
secretary will communicate with
the state organization and inform
them of this decision.
Every possible means Of making
the venereal clinic in Perth Amboy
function to the degree in which 1t
is needed, has been exhausted. A
large amount of money. much time
and great energy has been expended
by the entire board and special
committees. Newspaper advertise
ing and pamphlets of all natures
distributed freely. as well as posters
have all been fruitless in encourag.
ing attendance ct this clinic. 1t
was thought, however. that IL h
work were carried on at the hospi-
tai, there would be no hesi-
tation to attend.
In the health officers report II
was shown that the mild epidemic
Il ~diphtheria, which was prevalent
during November. is gradually de-
creasing so that there has been q
drop of a. per cent. Scarlet fever
Is still prevalent to a degree.
