MUSICIANS UNION
Adopts Rule to Do No More Free Play
ing for Anybody.

The musicians union of New Britain
has adopted new rule which forbids
any orchestra or band composed of its
members from doing any more what is
termed thank you jobs. 1t is proposed
to enforce the rule rigidly. In case of
a lodge orchestra, for instance, the or
chestra may play for the lodge behind
closed doors, but if any entertain
rnents are given to which outsiders ars
invited the orchestra must be paid for.
OF course there are ways of getting
around the rule in this respect by
turning the money back into the lodge
treasury. What will suffer most by the
rule will be public benefit entertain
ments. 1t has been the custom of or
chestras to give their services free for
entertainments given for q worthy
cause, but under the new rule thighs

WILL SAVE ICE
If WaIlinsford Stores Have Thursday
Half Holiday.

The clerks in the Wallingford mar
kets and grocery stores are meeting
with success in getting their petition
for half holiday signed. over ninety
ger cent. of the merchants have affixed
their autographs and it is assured the
places of business will close Thursday
afternoons during June. July and Au-
gust.
Last year the clerks received Tues
day afternoons during the months
stated, but it has been thought best
to ask for Thursday afternoons this
year. An argument that carries weight
is that ice will be costly article this
season and by keeping closed a half
day and thereby not having to open
their refrigerators the narketmcn will
save money. Some of them have con-
sidered this point in signing the petit
ton.

The condition of the granite bust
nees in Westerly is not so good but
it might be better, nor so bad it
might not be worse. Neither the cut
tiers nor the quarrymen are so rushed
with orders as to cause any delay in
the completion of work and airy dealer
selling a Westerly job may be sure of
prompt delivery. In fact, some manu-
facturers are inclined to the opinion
that the old-time Memorial day rush
is a thing of the past. Neither the
employees or the employers in the
granite business are satisfied with the
conditions.
On the part of the manufacturers
the short hours and high wages of the
men and the general increase in the
cost Of doing business, with sharp
competition is cutting the profits to-
point but a little in excess of legal
interest on the capital invested.
ON the part Of the employees they
say that although the hours are short

crease in family expenses.
