Mass., June 4 (TP).— Selectionmen at Clinton have come to the conclusion that while patience may be a virtuet, there is a limit to all things. Therefore, says Clerk John Kelley of the board, the famous “shimmying bridge’ 'at Clinton will be closed to traffic late this afternoon. Motor ists on the state highway, which runs between Lowel and Worcester, will be detoumed over dirt roads for a distance of fully a mile. The “shimmying bridge” is sort of an orphan. For a dozen years offi cials have held conferences on mak ing the structure more stable. In these, the Metropolitan state commis sion, the Boston and Maine railroad, the state, county and town have tried to thrash the matter out. But none would claim responsibility for the bridge or for its erratic behavior while traffic was crossing it. Now, say the selectmen, the bridge is going to be closed and kept closed.

When you will have acquired and paid for such a lovely place, you may justly swell up with pride in that you invested your savings and the money you were paying for rent in such a plsce instead of squan dering it.
