The Zone System is “the
Suggestion of the Public
as the Best Means to In-
crease Trolley Revenue.
The distance fare system. effective on lines of The Conecticut Company on
Sunday. November 2. is put in operation as a result of suggestions from the public. w_
hose representatives havedeclared it to be the one logical and fair system of charm

u .‘c—‘..
To be successful in operation. this system reouircs the help of the public.
The Connecticut Company is well aware that the introduction of a system.
changing as it does the riding custom of passengers. will be attended delays in
the service until the passengers and the crews on the cars become familiar with
the new methods. t M —
The Company therefore ulrges the patience and helpfulness of the public' 1n this
attempt to give the people exactly what they themselves lave said they want— a sys tgfii
of fares based on the distance the rider goes. a system declared by all unpreiudic
fair-minded persons to be fair to all logical and reasonable.
Very quickly passengers will realize that the inconvenience of the new. system is
less than they may at first 1m agine: that the advantages of the lowest. fan-est poss1ble
rates which it offers more than offset the possibility of temporary delays during the
inauguration of the system. MW .-
Therefore it' 15 obviously' 1n the public interest that passengers shall adapt
themselves to the new conditions as quickly as possible. ENTER CARS BY THE
FRONT DOOR. Get your zone check from the motorman and take a seat as near
the rear of the car as possible. so that you mav have the shortest possible distance to
go when you are ready to leave: present your zone check to the conductor and PAY AS
YOU LEAVE BY THE REAR DOOR. If you will pav before the car stops. and step
to the platform ready to alight when the door 15 opened. you will help In the operation
of the system. um) ‘ ;m~._.m..

many who under the distance fare system will pay 8 or 10 cents would have to pay 12.
