Altamont Enterprise April 2, 1920

BERNE. 

— Last Saturday a bunch of men from West Berne, Berne and Knox shoveled the roads open for cars from Berne to Altamont. The boys also went into the town of Guilderland at the top of the Altamont hill and shoveled out a bank which was nearly impassable for any kind of a vehicle. We sure are glad to see the cars running again. 

— Charles E. Ball has commenced plowing. He is the first to do anything on the land in this locality. 

AQUETUCK. 

The snow has about disappeared except in the woods and every one is glad that spring has come and once more we hear the honk of the auto horn. 

LOCAL TRAINS CONFORM TO NEW TIME. 

It was announced yesterday by officials of the Delaware and Hudson railroad that certain local trains between Altamont and Albany would be changed to meet the requirements of the state daylight saving law. The change in schedules is the result of the hearing Wednesday afternoon before the public service commission. The trains will be operated on eastern standard time, but the time of departure from Albany or from Altamont has been set ahead from 45 minutes to one hour to conform with the new time. 

CENTRAL BRIDGE. 

Mrs. Byron Dietz will open a tea room at her home in the old village. She will serve lunches, ice cream, etc. Auto parties will receive special attention. 

GUILDERLAND CENTER. 

Mrs. Ida Frederick will soon move her little family into the house by the school house. 

WOLF HILL. 

Herbert Smith lost a pocketbook containing nearly ten dollars in money, while on his way home from Clarksville on Friday. It was found by J. H. Sager and promptly returned to its owner. 

VILLAGE NOTES. 

Perhaps you are but slightly acquainted with the musical possibilities of the piano accordion. It is an instrument but little known outside continent Europe. Visocchi handles it with rare ability. Attend the Colony Club entertainment and enjoy this treat.
