GASOLINE AND LUNCH

The Standard Oil Company seems
 to possess no end of experience in
 knowing how to attain it's ends. Even
 when there is opposition to the con-
 struction of such . minor enterprise
 as . gasoline filling station within
 . xoned district 1t has learned how 10 fit it's tactics 10 the circumstances
 A brilliant example is found in the manner m which it has circumsent- ed the opposition 10 it's plan in Franklin square. For two years its effert to construct a filling station there has been unavailins. To the average individual it looked as if the eaeoline company was permanently stumped. But tho Standard knows its onien0. Ultimately the situation came to the attention of the best minds in the organization hereabouts and they thought of'a scheme which for sabtlety and effectiveness commands unstinted attention, if not admira- tion. If the contiguous objectors to the gasoline station insist upon not having it in the vicinity. then the land will be leased to a lunch cart

HURRAH FOR NUrMEGGLA,


 The following fulsome approval of things roadwise as they are done in Connecticut reached our observing eyes through the media of the Middletown Press:
 There Is ample testimony in all directions to the effect that the Connecticut syNem of highway con- struction and maintenance is the best in the United States. Attend any of the national conventions of those engaged in highway building. main- tenance or supervision and. if you are from this steady. we'll governed commonwealth you will feel swell ing pride as the true merit of Con. necticut, in this direction. is recog- nized. Until something better Is de- vised-and this state is more likely to find it out first than any other why change? There is no successful answer to this.
 Only ono reasonable objection to this can be offered: Why not include tho world, instead of merely the United States? Can 1t be that any other nation has a state, . province. department. section. or what not that can surpass Connecticut? We don't know, but we refuse to be- lieve it.

proprietor. Al the locality is an In. dustrial sone there is no legal way to stop . lunch cart.
 "What'll you have" in effect the Standard then asks the startled ob- 3sctors: "Will it be the filling sta ton or tho lunch cart!" The three churches which have been opposing the filling station still dislike the idea of . gasoline dis psnsary in the vicinity. with the noise of automobiles calling for fuel on Sundays. But they dislike the idea of . lunch cart considerably more. A lunch cart is even more un- slightly than a gasoline station. and there is q disposition to believe that the odors from a lunch cart are more distressing to sensitive nostrils than the odors from . gasoline sta ton.
 Placed in this predicament. the objectorS are not hesitant in declar- ing that If one or the other is bound to come. they prefer the gasoline station. And that no doubt is what the willy Standard knew from the moment the lunch cart idea was de- vised by the big minds running tho company in New England.
 An oil concern, we have noticed, usually gets what it wants.

CIVILIZED NEW HAVEN

Somehow we had always thought that the civil administration in New Haven was little less than civilized. How we got this notion We do not know. Perhaps it has been due to the belief, inculcated early. that if it were not for Yale. the city of New Haven would be nothing much tc boast about. even for those who in that event would consent to reside in the town. Or perhaps it is the way the city has maltreated it's harbor and made it place to be avoided by all possessors of a good sense of smell that has inculcated our sup position about New Haven.
 Gladly are we inclined to hedge a little along the premise. It is learned from no less an authority than the

FAIRGROUNDS

We stand for playgrounds and plenty of them. We stand for per- manent playsrounds and such addi- tional playground as it is possible to acquire. The Municipal Recreation Commission In t. annual report frevns upon the practice of utilizing scAeSl lands for playgrounds with the uuoerstanding that the play greunds must be given up when the time comes to utilize the land for sehool purposes. Permanent grounds gro more desirable. it is stated. Which is true; but 1t is logical to suppose that most of tho school playgrounds will no be needed for buildings for many years. It will b. we'll, of course. to look around now fer land to utilize as playgrounds, e that when the inevitable pinch comes 1t cannot be said that the
 
 city lacked foresight at time when land waS sasy to acquire. Furnish ing playEroun1s for the children of inc city is one of the finest of services to citizens. Nearly 10000 utilized the eight playgrounds last year, and despite the costs of new equipment, the city only spent 5000. The returns on the invest ment have been immense. More playgfeunds are needed. There are no objections to acquiring them. The young must be served and served well.

The building dspa rtmsnt has sent out 16o notices Q veranda repaira that are needed. and this is sood work. It has not been possible to in- spect all of them throughout the city. however. and 1t is to be hoped that the work progresses swiftly and thoroughly. It is also to be hoped that when notices of needed repairs and improvements are made, that the authorities diligently see to 1t that they are carried out.
 Yet why should it be necessary for the building department or the city to act in matters that it should be self-evidsnt require constant atten- tion? Why should any property own CT be willing to possess a tenement  that is not absolutely safe in this respect? A building that is danger ous to adults Is rare; and adults usually recognize such dangers and avoid them. A building that posses- sees . veranda with railing that is unsafe for childhood is doubly dangerous to human life in that children lack the prudence to protect themselves against harm while at play.
 Let every veranda be made safe for childhood. And let there bs no delay about it.

RAILINGS ON yERANDAS

It is distressing indeed 10 read every so often all about how a child has falen of a tenement veranda and dropped two or three stories to the sidewalk. To those who love children--and who possibly can fail to do so-the shock incident to learning of such an occurrence pene- trates to the marrows.
 The latest happening of this na- ture fortunately seems to have re- suited in no permanent injuries to the child. How . child can fall from the third story to the sidewalk with
