Around Town With
The Editor

The Public Service Commission
held public hearing on the removal
of the Williamsport Hagerstown
trolley yesterday, but too late for a
report of the meeting to be carried
in this weeks issue.
j. " Jamison, Jr., who has lead
the way in the fight to get the trolley
removed, working tirelessly and UNI
selfishly, was present at the hear
ing and before he left he called
me to ask what the reaction of The
Globe-Independent readers has been
toward the project. l was glad to
be able to inform him that not
single adverse comment had been
voiced and that many had expressed
the opinion that the removal of the
trolley line would be one of the most
advanced steps taken in HagerstoWn
and the county in a long time.
The Board of Directors of the
Washington County Historical So
ciety will hold a luncheon meeting
at the Hager House restaurant at
1890 today, with the main subject
for discussion being the restoration
of the Jonathan Hager House.
NV hat is off to the Lumbermen's
Mutual Casualty Company, their
Hagerstown representative, the r.
win F. Hoffman Agency, and their
adjustor, Mr. Traver, for their court
eous, prompt and fair treatment
when my car was damaged a couple
of weeks ago. Not only did l get
a very fair and prompt settlement,
but when, after | had signed re-
lease, further hidden damage was
discovered, an adjustment of that
was also made without argument.
You might call the above free adj
vertising, but after some of the ex-
periences l have had with insurance
companies in the years gone by, my
treatment in this case was so re-
freshing that l want to express my
appreciation.
And talking about autos, I'm still
trying to figure out why 1916 car,
with over 10000 miles on the speed
ometer, should sell for nearly 5000
more than a brand new 1947 model
of the same make and equipped
with the same extras.

alton is already here. Looks as If
