TEN BUSSES WOULD
 BE TRAFFIC NEED Too Many for Normal Use on Meriden- Hartford Line
 P. J. C. REPORTS FINDING
Template Shop Opened With Ap- pfopriate Ceremonies--New Brit ain Masons to Attend Service in Beriin--Other Items of Interest.

If all the communication traffic be- tween Meriden and Hartford were tc present itself for carriage it would require equipment far in eXcess ot normal needs, according to the find. ing of the Public Utilities commis- sion, in which 1t yesterday denied permission to Theodore Wagner and Robert Dorman of New Britain to operate bus line between Meriden and Hartford. The finding states that 10 busses of the type the appli- cants proposed to use would be re- quired to handle the traffic during the rush hours, too many for nor nal needs.
 The report of the commission fol- lows:
 "very little testimony was intro duced by the applicants with regard to public convenience and necessity on the through haul between Hart ford and Meriden. The New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad company operates a fast and fre- duent service between Boston and sprinssleld and New York on its main lines, the Hartford division, All trains operating over that line stop at Hartford and Meriden, and wita few exceptions, Berlin also.
 Service Frequent
 "The service afforded travellers on the railroad between Hartford and Meriden is very frequent, inssmuch as there are 10 trains daily each way, except Sunday, between these points and well spaced out, 50 as to afford transportation service from carly morning until late at night. The running time between Hartford and Meriden, via the railroad. aver ages about 80 minutes, with a fare of 65 cents for distance of IS miles.
 "The applicants propose to oper- ate an hourly service each way from $ a. m. 10 13 ?. m., or substantially the same as the railroad, with 6 proposed fare of 65 cents for a distance of 1s miles, and a running time of about 50 minutes. Through travel between the points mentioned is heavy. showing on the railroad for the past IF months period, from July, 1923, to July, 1924, an average of 800 single trip passengers daily, and about 200 commuters.
 While the applicants expressed themselves willing to carry commu- ters between Hartford and Meriden at a lower rate than the regular rate or fare, it seems reasonably certain as practical matter that they could not carry them at steam railroad eommutation rates. The rate of fare for commuters on the stem railroad is 20 cents each way. or about one- third of the single trip fare. The bulk of the connmuter traffic comes just before the, commencement and after the termination of business hours. sF

Rev. OVERLY With Regret
Newspaper Says New Presiding Elder
Very Useful Citizen.

The Montezuma Record speaks in
high praise of Rev. E. M. OVERLY.
who comes from the pastorate of the
Methodist church there to Dawson as
presiding elder of this district. Says
the Record:
''Mr. OVERLY and his estimable
family have been with US only one
year, but during that year they have
endeared themselves to the people Of
this community. Mr.. OVERLY has been
actively interested in the educational
and social interests of our city as well
as the spiritual since coming here.
each Wednesday morning he had
charge of the chapel exercise at the
school building and the children look
ed forward to his talk from one week
to the next. He was a regular attend
ant at the Kiwanis luncheons and was
very enthusiastic about every good
movement which that club has been
instrumental in bringing about for
Montezurla.
"Mr. OVERLY was instrumental in
the raising recently of several thous-
and dollars among the members o.
the Methodist denomination which
lifted their church debt. leaving their
handsome edihce unincumbered."
