In fact, everything indicates that this popular resort has entered upon an era of greater prosperity and popularity than it was ever dreamed it would know. It is difficult to tell how much its success is due to the introduction of the trolley, but it is certain that the trolley has given it a tremendous boom. The cars run every hour in the fore- noon between the Island and South Nor- walk, and every twenty minutes in the afternoon. Twioea day a baggage car is attached. For the convenience of Bell Islanders who may want to take the steamer City of Albany for New York, an early car is sent down from South Norwalk on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday mornings that returns to South Norwalk in time to connect with the boat.

Young Hayward is a member of the Seaside club and sec- retary of the Roof Tree club, froth swell organizations. He is well known in Nor- walk.
