for parades and events taking place in town.
 Many towns have bands and these are meeting with great success, it is pointed out. The organizations are used at town affairs and do not prove as expensive as bands hired from out of town. Band concerts in the surn mer time, it is thought, would meet with popular approval and a sub scription of a small amount could be taken from the residents, so as to keep the organization going.

 Boon to BeTlinites
 Berlin residents received with joy the announcement that the Connec- ticut company will inaugurate on March 1 bus service between New Britain and Meriden. This service will prove boon to those residents of Berlin living beyond the terminal of the present New Britain Berlin line.
 Residents, a short time ago, were interested in the proposal of two men to operate a line between Hart ford and Meriden. This project fell through because the petition was not granted by the public utilities commission. Citizens were disap- pointed when the commission re- fused to grant the permit, but have been anxious to secure bus service for some time since.
 Berlin has large number of resi- dents living south of the bus ter minal and many of these must walk over a mile in order to reach the jitncy line. It is expected that the line will be heavily patronized when it starts. It will serve 10 bring Mcridcn and New Britain into closer contact.
