The Hartford Courant's “Horse Notes“
editor, who knows a thing or two worth
knowing ittiut horses, remarks: "It is
an easy enough mutter to ‘breuk‘ a horse
to the electric cars if the driver himself
doesn't get nervous. The very worst
thing to do is to punish a horse that is
scared. Keep the lines well in hand, tut
don't make the horse think something is
going tohnppen by bracing yourself {or
a rustle, the while setting the lines as if
in a vice. A little quiet talk often does
the business. There'll be clet'tritrs all
along the route soon."
