Some .aonths ago the Bangor and Aroostock :a:lroad discontinued service over its twelve-mile branch running . from Li-ownsvilie to Katahdin iron works. Henry Green say his opportunity. He started with a small automo bde and an idea. The idea was to tit the car with flange wheels and .nake it run on the unused rails. It .vorked. He rented the whole branch from the railroad company at 100 a month and started business. Now- traffic i so brisk that he is us ng a trailer behind his car. !

He thinks this will take care of snow un to a depth of a foot. If it gets decp r the passengers will have to help shovel away the drifts. .

At this, time the score stood 8-7 in Hickory's favor, but this did not last long for Huggins slip;T;ea up and caged a pretty field goal after catching the ball thrown from the outside, by Mitchell. Statesville came back with a rush and Anderson made a beautiful shot after getting away, from his guard.
