YOUTH UNCHANGED,
 TAXI MAN INSISTS
But Parents Have No Control,
 M. E. Sullivan Says

The only difference between the present generation and the genera ton that preceded 1t is that the young folks nowadays advertise their actions while the young element of yesterday was more careful, Michael r. Sullivan. who owned the first taxi which operated in this city, declares. He bases his knowledge of human nature from ex- perience gained by 42 years of con- tact with the public.
 Mir. Sullivan believes that folks today are no worse than their pre- decessors. that there was just as much smoking and drinking in the other days but it was all done with. out the knowledge of the parents The father or mother doesn't seem to count these days" he said.
 New Britain's pioneer taxi driver is in position to judge the stand ards of living for since he was nine years old he had been dealing di- rectly with the buying public. He worked on a farm at that age and used 10 handle milk route. At IA years of age he began work on a tea route for E. E. Linke and worked in that capacity until he was 35 years old.
 First Taxi Cab In Town
 It was then that Mir. Sullivan con- ceived the idea of having a taxi cab service. His first venture. just 17 years ago. was with & hack. He did fairly we'll and after a time bought more hacks.
 About six years later he brought the first automobile taxi to this city, a small touring car which he bought second hand and ran for years. Dur- ing the war period his business grew to such proportions that he owned three automobiles He said 1t was so hard to keep help during this period that when the boys took a car on & joy ride and wrecked 1t lie would be afraid to say anything to them for fear they would quit on him. When one of his drivers got a flat tire he would drive over to the curb and send for Mickey" to fix 1t.
 He said In his long experience he had been dealing with men who cheated him or wrecked his cars he has never brought a complaint to police headquarters. His thought has always been for the heartbreak

an arrest would give the mothers and sisters of the victim.
 Gives Free Rides Aplcnty
 Never has he passed anyone walk ing when he was travelling on a night trip. He has always made 1t a custom of picking up everyone he meets and he has never met anyone who failed to live up to his expec- tations.
 In the old days he often picked up tramps and when they told him they had no place to sleep that night he would let them sleep in his barn. Before the advent of several new concerns, Sullivan and his taxi com. pany were well known in this sec- tion of the country.
 He has never had any more than minor accident and no one has ever met with injury while riding with him, he said. He hopes to con- tinue in active service and enjoy the unusual experiences of one who for years has worked all hours of the night with all types of people.
