Just a tow years ago it made little ditterence what you paid for
the articles you bought. You had a nice tat' pocketbook and felt
' kindly toward every merchant you patronized” You could afford to
”be generous and buy the best. Within the last few months this atti-
tnde has given away to one of careful and judicious selection. This
:mrked change pleases us. For we like to sell lumber to careful
buyers. They know and appreciate good quality. They do not buy
so much but they pay enough to get a good grade of lumber and are
‘ never disappointed. We‘ ve had to be more careful |in our own buy-
ing. And that’s a good thing tale. It makes us study our business
fiend keeps us alert.

CROSSING AC CIDENTS [N 511112
Automobiles figured in 101ml]-
road grade crossing accidents in
Connecticut in'the period of this
year up to August 15,.according to
figures furnished to the State motor
vehicle department by the New
York, New Haven and Hartford
Railroad Company. In every in-
stance.- the aceident was .avoidable
and many of them resulted fatally.
Thirty-six automobiles w e r e
struck 'while trying to beat ap-
proaching trains over grade cross-
ings. a practice which the railroads
to discourage make large expendi-
tures each year, and 12 automo-
biles out of control' ran into 'the side
of trams passing over highway
crossings. 53 molar vehicles plough-
ed through'lowered gates, most of
them having approached‘_ the cross-
ings at too great a spec dto 'be
cred. In one case. an automobile
collided with a. railroad-motor car
used for transporting section labor-
ers and materials.
Scarcely a week passes that does
not bring into the motor vehicle
department reports or grade cross-
ing accidents, a large percentage of
which have tragic results. The mo-
tor vehicle and highway‘ depart-
ments co-operate with the .rail-
roads in the eflort to make drivers
more cautious at crossings. and by
their joint interest, sight lines at
crossings have been
many plane's. Often it

and.trees which prevented drivers
from getting a clear view of the
rails in either direction, and in some
cases knolls or other obstructions
have been cleared away to good ef-
fect. This done. drivers are depend-
ed upon to see that the track is
clear in both directions before cross-
ing, but .careful observation has
shown that a large number do not
tale this precaution.

Chamber of Commerce
F e a r s Congestion
Unless Winter Sup- '
plies A r e Bought
The Connecticut Chamber of
Commerce has received. the dis-
quieting news of danger of conges
tion and delay in demonic coal de-
liveries during the fall and winter
unless householders are more
prompt in laying in their winter
supply. The railroad reports rela-
tively light shipments to Connecti~
cut during the current year and Ed-
win J. OMalley. Commissioner of
Markets, states that there are ‘over
150,000 coal cars standing idle on
storage tracks. Many mines are
working only half time and the pro-
duction this year has fallen 01 ap~
proximately 6,000,000 tons. This
means that the public, for sonic rea- .
son. is not buying its coal seasona-
bls’. '
The New Haven railroad reports
that its entire anthracite shipments
by rail for its 53'stem. from January
to August inclusive, for the current
year. amounts to only 52,875 car-
loads, or approximately 2,650,450
tons This is materially less than for
the corresponding periods of nor-
mal years Stanley H Bullard. pres-
ident of the Chamber, has made a
personal investigation in Bridgeport
and finds that in the spring and
early summer there were good ship-
ments and liberal buying. During
July and August there has been
practically no movement of coal.
Note of “'arning .
"Mr. Bullard issues this note of
warning and advice: "In the long
run the consumer pays for every
economic Waste. The coal dealer has
his fixed overhead charges~his
plant. trucks. teams and workmen.
If he can keep them busy in the
summer and fall when-the roads are
in good condition and deliveries are
easy. he can render better service."
and the economies effected may be
reflected in a relatively lower retail
price. The Connecticut Chamber of

The Stamford meat cutters asked

‘ SSAVOIA l
Commerce investigated the .causc of.
the existing high prices of coal at
the request of Governor Templeton
nearly a year ago, and found that
they are in no sense due to unrea-‘
sonablc profits by the retailers. Coal
is generally sold on a fairly close
margin and the dealer is entitled to
his profit. “’th any line, of busi-
m-ss fails to yield profits, we all sub'
for in the end."
"Then. there is the yery impor»
tant railroad side of the question."

results are apparent. It is unfair to
the company to congeet shipments

act promptly in the matter of coal
