Marriage Knot Tied
In Unromanfic Place

Business far from romantic had
taken me to the same floor that the
marriage license bureau is on in the
county building of not so far distant
city.
When I went to take the elevator to
the street an elevator boy stuck his
head out and inquired, want to wit
ness a wedding, lady?"
I agreed and he beckoned me into
the elevator and shut the door, ex-
planning as he pointed to the two
other people in the elevator, "This
here's the justice and this is the bride.
My pal, Bill, has gone for the license.
Her folks are chasing us, so we have
to get the ceremony over quick. You
and me are witnesses"
In few minutes a young man
rushed down the hall and into our
elevator. The cage was lowered
little way, and then stopped between
floors. In that queer setting the we'd
ding service was run through so quick
ly that the groom was still out of
breath when he managed to gasp

We signed the license, and the ele-
vatOr went on down to the main floor.

couple since, but l have often won

ELIMINATING GRADE
( ROSSI GS

The news comes forth from Hart ford, in the form Of a furtive para graph. that the state highway de partmont is to eliminate two dan gcrous grade crossings.
 Considering the many dangerous grade crossings that still exist in the state, this ia good news, II is when one contcmplatos the estimated eos; of the two grade crossings to be eliminated that one gets an idea that tho business Of eliminating grade crossings is one of the most costly problems we have.
 The state department 1t is an nounccd, is 10 build ovyrrazsas at North Cornwall and at Lime Rock. The former is to cost S&4g,o31 and rhe latter $10o.7o1.
 The Lime Rock enterprise. which is in the town Of Canaan, is one of tho cheaper examples of grade crossing elimination. The North Cornwall project IS more in line with the average.
 TO eliminate all the dangerous grade crossings in the state would cost millions of dollars, many more millions than We spend for roads anI their upEcrp every year. The cost ueually is proratcd between the state and the railroads; but both would go broke if large numbers Of such crossings were eliminated every year, The law, therefore, specifics that a certain number of grade crossIngS are to be eliminated during a specified time; but this is a law that has been wlnked at 'or many years because the New Haven railroad was in poor financial shape until just recently. Now that tbo railroad is again on its feet we may look forward to the elimination of more crossings-if the. state can afford 10 meet it's share of the fnan- cial obligations.

\ GAS STATION DENIED

Occasionally one comes across an instance where an cnterprising gentleman or company would open m another gasoline station and is dynird the privilege, The latest inci- dent of the kind occurred on Glen street, when somebody wished to start a filling station opposite one already established on the street. Tho board of public works invcsti- gated and evidently came 10 the con- cluslon there WIS no necessity for the station at that point
 l5ut evrn had the petition been granted the situation on Glen street would have been no different than similar situations on many other streets. Of inc construction Of caso- lin" stations there has been a won dcrful record in recent years, and it has made little difference 10 the companies whether there alrcady were other such stations in the noiahhorhood, in the block, or across the street. Many citizens have won dorod how permits for all these sta lions We're obtalnabIc.
 The more gasoline stations th,ro are in a city the more overhead there is in maintaining the oil distri- button business. If most of them are idle more than half the time. as seems to be the case, it merely means an enormous increase in the overhead. and this is reflected in the price charged for oil.

THE MAYOR AND Bl SEES

The mayors opposition 10 addl- ton to the bus lines in the city seems to be predicated upon tho fact that there is not sufficient space at the Center 10 accommodate more of these space occupiers. This attitude, % far as it relates to the Center Is well taken; there Is not sufficient space there 70 accommodate those already using the vicinity of the triangle for terminal purposes, cs- pecially at such times when traffic is at it's peek, and especially on Satur- day nights.
 But why should tho buses need 10 use the Center as the onc and only terminal in the downtown soction2 There surely are other points in the downtown district which conld be used for terminal points, One bus line does not like to change if others do not, Of course; but they all could keep off the Center and probably would not lose 2 fare after the pub lie got accustomed 10 knowing where the n,v terminals were .itu- ated.
 The ideal and proper method, of course, would ho the maintenance |, of a bus terminal and by this a sta tion is meant that would be off tHe streets, like a railroad station. A large shed, With space for loadiug and unloading. and nearby wait ing station, would be q development that the public would highly appro- cate; and the city would have the satisfaction of having the buses off the streets so far as their using the
