Text Appearing Before Image:
JEWETTCITY, which bleaches and prints cotton. PLAINFIELD, once known for its Academy, is now a railroadtransfer point, and several trains a day run thro to Providence. At CENTRAL VILLAGE change to a Webster car. Alexanders Pond has the pretty Wildwood Park on its shores.The pond, a sizable sheet of water, gives good boating and fish-ing. There are pleasant shady walks, and many picnics andexcursion parties come here for a day in the open. PUTNAM (Putnam Inn) has a Court House, and two well-known Catholic institutions: St. Marys Convent and NotreDame Academy. Next over the state line to WEBSTER. The most interestingexcursion here is to BEACON PARK on Lake Chaubunagung-maug (alias Lake Chargoggagogmanchoggagogg!). The lake isas queerly shaped as named, with many bays, and long jaggedPoints thrusting into it. Several small steamships ply on it insummer, and the cool sail will be found refreshing. From Webster, WORCESTER and BOSTON are quicklyreached. 58 Trolley Trips Through New England
Text Appearing After Image:
Providence Harbor—New Englands Southern Gateway PROVIDENCE, R. I, (HOTEL: Crown, $1.50. RESTAURANT: Mumfords) To the stranger making his way thro the crowds that eachevening throng Westminister Street, while the clanging trolley-cars pass and pass, comes to mind the proud boast of the trueRhode Islander that there is nothing half so good as PROVI-DENCE. For those living within eyeshot of the Capitol, shin-ing white. Providence is Rhode Island, as Paris is France. The New Yorker will find it a pleasant trip to take boat toProvidence, and then run up thro the Old Colony country toBoston (see Table 62). In summer a connecting car leaves fromMarket Sq. at 8 A. M. and runs thro without change. A rightnice trip with a chance to see the country. Worccsterl Boston PROVIDENDBCENTRE
