As to those who like to ride (Ui the 

 street cars, we will say that the huigest 

 rides are on the Kast lOml line, the

 College Hill line. if you wish to see 

 jjretty suburban homes, take the Zoo- 

 Kdeii I'ark, tiie Axmnlale or the Madison 

 K'oad line. If you want to see how our 

 cars climb the hills, take the Eiberon 

 a\iMiue line. At the same time ycni will 

 get a long, ride through a pretty country. 

 Do not ff)rget that we have a liberal 

 transfer system, .ami on returning from 

 any of these rides you can get a transfer 

 to <'ontiiiiie to another luie. ISiit be sure 

 to ask for the transfer at the time of
