FIRST SNOWFALL OF
 SEASON HITS CITY

The first snow-storm of the season was recorded here today when two slight squalls swept across the city With steadily declining temperature since yesterday morning the greatest depression of the mercury was record ed at 6 o'clock today when the ther- mometer registered 34 Fahrenheit.
 It steadily rose from that depressed mark until at eleven o'clock 64 de- grees made those walking about the streets without overcoats or winter garments feel more comfortable.
 Shortly before six this morning and at 11:3G snow fell in flurries with a leaden sky which indicated a. continu- ance. Before the press hour the sun was shining and those compelled to be about the streets felt relief.
 Reports from the outlying districts reported that a heavy frost was evil denced during the night but no ex- ceptional freezes. It Is not believed that unbarre1ed apples will feel the effect of the cold snap or that pas lures will be killed.

HALOWE'EN WELL
 OBSERVED HERE Many Special Events Plan ned for the Home, The
 atre and Halls
Stores Offer Novelties, and the Police Take Steps
 Against Rowdyism

With ghosts, hobgobblins, witches, and other nocturnal providers expected to be rampant tonight, and with be observed on the eve of all Saints Day, Halloween is to be celebra ted throughout Bridgeport tonight with a pomp that has been seldom seen. Like wise throughout the surrounding su- burban towns preparations are being made for private celebration of the event.
 Though hilarity in the homes will be confined to the playing of amusing games and pranks, such as ducking for apples, and the attempt of young girls to ascertain their future husbands names, that upon the street by the younger element will be permitted by the authorities within reasonable bounds.
 Both the Bridgeport police and the constableS of Fairfield have been in structed to see that decorum is ob- served. In Bridgeport, Chief of Po- lice Eugene Birmingham has issued special instructions to evtery detail going upon duty and thirty day men will be assigned for special patrol about the crowded sections of the city, to see that stockings filled with lamp black, hard substances, ticklers and other prohibited weapons of annoyance and danger are not used.
 The destruction of property in any form will be summarily dealt with by arrest of the perpetrators.
 Special attractions will be held at the various theatres, and dances will be the order of the night in halls and homes. These will be materially en hanced in beauty by the variety of on display in the stationary and art shops of the city.

Standard Course For
 Dental Hygienists
Announcement.

pr. Charles Mayo of Rochester. Minnesota, one of the great surgeons, said last spring in Chicago at a dental convention. The next great step in medical progress in the line of proven tive medicine should be made by the dentists. Will they do it?''
 In the last few years there has been a great demand for women as hygien- ists and prophylactic operators in den tai offices for it is a well known fact that at least eighty per cent. of den tai diseases can be prevented by fol lowing a system of treatment and cleanliness.
 There is also now developing a de- mafld for these women in pubic m stftutions such as schools, hospitals and sanitariums. The scientists ana learned professional men have no means of spreading their findings and knowledge for the prevention of dis ease to the public except through pamphlets, newspapers and magazine articles Although these have done good service they are not so efficient as teachers of hygiene and prophy- tactic workers would be.
 At the present time there IS no standard educational course for these Dental Hygienists. The demand for these women throughout the coun- try is sufficiently large to warrant a course of lectures to be given by men who are 2uInOIlL16S InO11 NcIA4OO specialties, these lectures to be print ed in book form and to be known as "A Standard Course for Dental Fly aienists" With the possibility of this Tnovern ent being a powerful aid in the prevention of disease. these ed ucators have agreed to give their ser vices gratis and will come to Bridge port this winter and will deliver course of evening lectures to a class of thirty yomen- After the lecture course there will be six weeks of practical training in Dental Trophy Iaxis.
 We know of no similar case where twenty lecturers have shown such generous spirit neither save we known of such a golden opportunity for wo- men in this vicinity to secure an edu- cation in such a useful and interesting pursuit of life.
 As there will be considerable ex- pense attached to the management of these lectures such as stenographer, stereopticon, chairs, mainkfns, etc, a nominal fee of twenty dollars will be charged to partly cover this ex- pense-

1t was set forth in the resolutions Of
fered by J. Clinton Hiatt that the as

the movement inaugurated by The Star
in this connection will bring great ben
eft to the people of the District of Co.

offered by Judge Charles S. Bundy, in
dorsing Attorney A. Leftwich Sinclair for
District Commissioner.

the association. In the. course of his
remarks Senator Works spoke particu-
larly upon the liquor traffic of the Dis
trict Of Columbia.
IF one Of my constituents was to come
| to Washington and 1 took him sightsee-
| ing, I would be ashamed to walk with
| him down Pennsylvania avenue from the
| White House to the Capitol he said.
| There are fifty-seven saloons between
| those places on Pennsylvania avenue, un-
| less some have been removed recently,
and there are as many as ten on one
| square,.
The speaker congratulated the assoca-
| ton upon its moral courage in being the
! only civic organization, as far as he
knew, that had supported those pushing
| the Jones' Works bill in Congress.
| He made an urgent appeal for the
| Identification as we'll as the moral bet
| torment of Washington, which he de-
| clared could be accomplished not alone
| through legislation in Congress and ap-
| propriatiOns. but with the earnest CO.
| operation of the citizens of the District
| of ColuPbia.
! Upon the conclusion of his address
/ Senator Works was unanimously elected
| an honorary member of the association.
