make a finish for the sleeves. The
collar is of skunk fur in this particu-
lar case, and may be fastened close
up about the throat.
Furs are expensive and liable to be-
come more so, sbut this fact doesn't
seem to deter lovely women from us
ing them as trimmings on coats or
dresses in places where they do not
add anything TO the warmth of these
garments. But they are not so great
an extravaganza after all, because they
last many seasons-with the right kind
of care-and are always fashionable.
In the coat at the right, a wide border
of skunk (also called martin) adds
to the richness of the model and helps
to proclaim it warm. This coat is
another straight line model made just
like coats of fur, with a wide collar
of skunk and uncovered buttons. It
is belted across the front, and is so
much like seal skin in appearance that
it takes more than glance, even from
practiced eyes, to determine that 1t is
the product of the looms.

EXPENSES HIGH,
COST OF ICE TO
Be RAISED HERE

With the almost complete harvest
OF one Of the best crops Of ice seen
in years-clear, hard and ''cold"--
the price of ice during the next season
may be slightly advanced in price.
Dealers in this vicinity declare to-
day that the price Of service" will
dominate the price to the consumer.
AS a reason for higher prices, 1t is
asserted that the utmost difficulty was
experienced this winter in getting
adequate help for the harvest, with
extreme competition for labor and
high prices for the work.
Adding to this the increased cost Of
freights, the increased costs of deliv-
cry service and the higher wages
which will be paid to those employed
in the distribution next summer,
wholesalers are convinced that addi-
tional demands will be made upon the
consumer.
The storage Of ice likewise is said
to result in little depreciation when
the ice is stored with temperatures
such as registered this year and
which has much to do with the keep
ing quality.
Reports from Hartford that the
Berkshire Ice & Coal Co., Of Bridge
port, one Of the largest state distri-
butors, has already announced in
creases in prices for the summer
months could not be confirmed today
as Harry Walker, president of that
company and the Naugatuck Valley
Ice & Coal Co., was out Of town at
tending to the last operations in this
years harvest.
At the Sprague Ice & Coal Co.'s Of
fee, heads of the company declared
that undoubtedly service conditions
would demand an increased price dur
ing the summer but that as yet no
companies had formulated their
prices because the cost of harvest can
not be checked until all houses are
closed and cost slips presented.

TAMBLYN MAY QUIT
OLIVET Passionate

The request Of Rev. George O.
Tamb1yn, pastor OF Olivet Congrega-
tional church, corner of North ave-
nue. and Main streets, to be allowed
three months absence while he erred
for work foreign to that Of the church
has caused an upheaval in the con-
gregation.
As a result Of the vote last night.
which denied the privilege, the Oliver
congregation may find itself seriously
split.
Mr.. Tamblyn desired to associate
himself as a lecturer and organizer of
the American Red Cross society and
declares that he was actuated solely
by patriotic motives. He has threat
ened 70 resign, partly as result Of
the negative vote last night and partly
because Of remarks that are alleged
to have been made to him by individ-
ua1s in the congregation last nigh.

Judge Miller Appears
In Boston Against Man
Who Stole His Machine

Judge Paul L. Miller Of the probate
court went to Boston today to appear
against the thief who stole his touring
car about three weeks ago. Through
the description sent out by Captain
Charles A. Wheeler Of the Bridgeport
police traffic squad, the Boston police
recognised Judge Miller's car as the
thief was trying to dispose OF 1t at q
Boston auction auto sales room. The
factory numbers and other identifica-
ton marks on the car had been al
tered by means of q chisel The al
terations were cleverly made but the
thief overlooked some strips OF cleo
trio tape wound about certain parts OF
the motor. He also made no efforts to
efface scratches on the hubs and mud
guards
These identifying marks sent out in
the police circular, established the
identity of the car. It has also led to
the arrest OF several Of a gang Of au-
tomobile thieves whose headquarters
are in Boston and whose operations
have extended throughout New Eng
land.
Judge Miller had the tanks OF hia
car filed with gasoline and oil. one
Saturday noon and had the engine
tuned up in preparation for q long
trip over the week end. He drove to
his Office in the city hail, leaving his
Car Tor q few minutes In Court street.
When he returned from his office the
car was gone. The Boston police are
desirous OF making an example Of the
th1ef. Judge Miller will spend his
holiday on the train to and from Bos-
ton or in court there. He has mada
claim on the insurance company for
the value OF his car and II Obliged "a
take the car, back will insist that II be
delivere in as good condition as when
4 was taken.
