Why not get an airplane and pick up the wagons and fly right over and save the time of unloading and all of the smell that goes with it.
 The city is now holding last years ! collectors pay. When one of the col lectors went to see Dr. Bray about it he said that they did not finish the job right. A week after they finished complaint came in from Broad street and that he and Dr. Pullen went up and the can was full where said complaint came from there are twelve tenements using the can and it was full in a week.
 If Dr. Bray will go up on Broad street now his chances of finding all cans on the street full are first class.
 Dr. Bray said that if Mir. Lawler does not get down to work this week that they will call for new bids for the collection of the garbage.
 Let the city and all the taxpayers pray that the health department makes better pick the next collector they pick.
 Thanking you for this space I will close, and watch the job.
 Yours truly,

WANING STREET CARS

Business for the street car company will be fairly well over the holiday Cars on some of the lines will be crowded. Every person not operating an automobe-and there still remain few in this class--wil ride some- where on trollcys, iitneys or by train. 1t will he one of the best days in the year for the Connecticut.
 If every normal day--or even Sat urday and Sunday--were as produc- tive of business the company would be wallowing in prosperity knee deep,
 Conditions as they are cannot con- tinue indefinitely for the street car companies or the public which uses them. The old adage that time will tell applies vigorously to their plight. and it requires an optinlist of dis tinction to think that time will show vast improvement.
 Not only have jitney lines partly taken the place Of street car service in the cities, but the widespread use of the automobile among all classes Of the population has increased the difii- cuties Of street car companies. Thou sands Of patrons who formerly made regular use of the street car line now ride around on rubber tires coming and going to work on them and utilizing them for pleasure rid ing as well.

THE INSURANCE BUSINESS

It is learned from Hartford, where occasionally political information is interspersed with news of the insur- ancc world. that the business of un- dcrwriting life and fire insurance is approaching d record, the outlook being that 1924 will surpass 1920-- the high mark in the business.
 All of which makes Hartford feel in good fettle. The insurance business appears to be one of the most stable lines on the business calendar.
 Prosnosticators of business condi- tions in Hartford, who arc identified with insurance companies and who re- ceive their inside information from agents throughout the entire country, are optimistic for the. near future. Business at present is below normal, experiencing the summer solstice. It is better in some cities than in others, but not breaking records anywhere except perhaps in the insurance line in Hartford. But by fall, these wise acres say, business in all lines will be in large volume. The reasons given for this surmise is that production has not been above consumption for months in fact, below consumption in many lines-and that by fall increased buy ing in virtually all lines will be an un- avoidabe necessity. Added to this will be the finish of the presidential cam paign in November and it's unsettling influence, and then the steadying down process. All of which sounds so reasonable that it is difficult to bring successful counter-attack
 It is further pointed out that New England is in line for a quick re- sponse to tho fall business push,

The Connecticut and some other companies have not been speed demons in going in for iitney lines, giving the impress sion they preferred to eXpend their efforts in attempting to annihilate them: which warfare, like other kinds Of combat. is fraught with the possi- bility of losing in the economic strug- gle.
 If the public prefers 10 travel on rubber tires it is the business of the transportations interests to meet the demand. IL may be blow to pride to junk expensive tracks and trolley cars and wires, but eventually this may happen anyway.

COMMUNICATED
GARBAGE COLLECTION
.itor New Britain Herald:

Editor New Britain Herald:
 Please allow space in your paper for me to say word about our gar bage collection. I saw by the report of pr. Bray, chairman of the health epartment, that the collection is being handled better in the last two weeks.
 l think it is about time, for the board of health are paying two of the eX-collectors fifteen dollars a day each for the last two weeks or more to try to get the city cleaned up once.
 Will someone tell Us where tho money comes from to pay these men As l understand the job is out in contract.
 But as the health department hired these teams it means the city will have to pay them.
 Dr. Bray thinks that if the collector had a truck to load the garbage on from off the wagons that they would be able to make better time going to Newington.
