REMOVING THE RAILS

When the Francis street trolley line is changed to buses-the inevit- able fate Of all minor trolley lines two important developments are possible.
 The buses can be extended wherever service needs seem to re- quire, And the tracks, which inter- fere with modern notions of improv- ed highways, can be removed wherever the city and the trolley company agrees that should be done,
 There is expense connected with removing tracks, and in some in stances it isn't done after a change to buses or an abandonment of serN- ice. This occurred on Arch street, and for several years the tracks re- mained along the line to Berlin. On Pennington avenue, in Berlin, the tracks remain to this day, although not objectionable because of their cvonness with the roadway. The tracks along the highway to Berlin took up space until the present fine road was constructed by the state.
 The time to remove tracks along the Francis street line is when tile change to buses is made, or shortly thereafter. It is gratifying to learn that the trolley company is willing

The reason why New Britain suf- fers from numerous inconvonent downtown railroad grade crossings is because the authorities who were identified with the citys early growth saw no particular objection to grade crossings and made it as easy as possible for the railroad to get through the city, This lack Of foresight also was based upon ideas of economy. Originally the streets of the city were not laid out according to any plan based on deep thought; they just happened. Indeed, we sometimes wonder whether most of them originally were not laid out by cows trottins home to their stables at the close of day.

\ Suggestion for Icm:ns Parks

\ Suggestion for ,,GGn:ns Parks Da%r Editor,
 As a faithful reader Of your paper there is nothing l can say to your favor that everyone else does not know. You, I and everyone else know how good a paper you publish,
 Your ads have helped many, your news and stories please everyone, and the public opinion and news of this town is made known to all.
 One article of news in particular has caught mby interest and that one is the naming of the trianelcs at the intersection of Broad and Burritt streets. Some people would like to have it named after two Polish gen. erals who have done great deeds for this country and others oppose this plan. What will be done to satisfy all?
 A suggestion was made, "Why cant the parks be named after Eli hu Burritt and Eddy Glover. two of our New Britain men, who have done much 10 make the people of this city proud of thom?'
 Burritt and Glover, two of New l Britains men to whom due honor has not been completely given. The Burritt park on Burrtt street surely | everybody will agree 10 that. Think. if the Eddy Glover band would go 1 by the Glover park, they would feel l that at last due honor had been giv- en to their pal and comrado, Mir. Editor, could you suggest any better idea? I think you will agrcc my suggestion is right. Have yor i anything 10 say to your public, or this matter, as we are eagerly await. ing any news.
 Truly yours,

WHERE COLD REALLY "GRIPS"

As We understand it, gripping cold" is a kind of cold that grips the system, perhaps like in a wise, and makes one wish for the good old summer time.
 The Byrd Antarctic expedition has been having some of this sort of gripping cold, only worse than man has ever experienced before. The average for September was 51 de- grces below zero. October may be more moderate, and in December il may get warm enough to use air

MORE OF THE MOB SPIRIT

How a jury can be secured for f@ir and honest trial incident to the labor troubles in North Carolina is becoming increasingly difficult to comprehend. There can be little fault to find with the courts and the judges who seem intent upon un- snarlng a difficult situation as best they may; but in the important cases needing jurics the impossibility Of finding citizens who are unswayed by the passion of the moment be- comes increasingly evident.
 The trouble in North Carolina lies in it's citizenry. which is divided un- equally into two different camps, with the mob spirit running wild.

Stomach Disorders First Revealed by
 Coated Tongue

Your tongue is nothing more than the upper end Of your stom- ach and intcstinos. It is the first thing your doctor looks at. It tells at glance the condition of your digestive aystem-and physicians say that 90%o of all sickness starts with stomach and bowel trouble.
 A coated tongue is a danger sig nal of those digestive disorders which lead to so many kinds of serious illness. It tells why the least eXertion tires you out; why you have pains in the bowels, gas, sour stomach, dizzy spells.
 Coating on the tongue is a sign that you need Tanlac-the medi- cine which has helped thousands who were physical wrecks from stomach and bowel troubles-who had "tried everything" in vain and about given up hope.
 Tanlac contains no mineral drugs; it is made of barks, herbs and roots. Get a bottle from your druggist today. Your money back if it doesn't help you.
