THE TOPPING

Roses no longer nod on large hats; violets no longer seem to sprout natur- ally from spring toques. Instead, flowers are ruthlessly pulled apart and petals are scattered flatly over crown and brim as if they had drift ed there on a spring breeze.
 An effect of this sort is illustrated in one of the large hats, modified sailor shape. with a new bulgtng crown and brim which has a very subtle slant-curving up at one side and toward the back and down at the other side to shade the face.

Stratford Feb. 14---There will be a hearing before the Board of Select men this evening on the establishment of a building line on Main street from the Southard property to Broadbridge road.

While he has al ways been associated with the great out doors, on walks or hunts, his many friends will be interested to see how he comports himself in town.

 There Is considerable interest being shown regarding the paternity of the founding left on the doorstep of the Board of Assessors and known as Tax Commissioner Bill" Its god father has agreed to bury its remains, but declines to name its parent.

COAL PRICES ARE PREPARED

The order establishing the old
maximum coal prices of the fuel ad-
ministration was completed Friday
night at a conference Of DIR. II. A.
Carl cid and railroad administra-
ton officials. 1t was taken immedi-
ately to the White House for Pres
ident Wilson's signature, but the
President had gone to sleep after
his arduous day and it was deemed
inadvisable to we Ike him. Accord
ingly the order will not become eff
fective until the attachment of the
Presidents signature.
DIR. Garfield said that the plass
contemplated that all questions of
allocating coal would be left 10 Di-
rector General Hines for settlement.
The former, as fuel administrator,
will give his authority to Mr.. Hines
orders, but will not remain in Wash
ington to undertake supervision of
the work. Mr.. Garfield said that the
point had not yet been reached ne
cessitating curtailmept of industries,
but if it is necessary eventually the
curtailment list prepared by the fuel
administration for the war indus
tries board during the war probably
would be used. The war industries
on that list of course, he explained,
would not get the treatment they did
during the war, and might. be cut off
altogether.
Price control over anthracite, the
fuel administrator emphasized, could
not be exercised at this time. He
made the statement regarding anth-
racite to correct a previous asser-
ton that the control would cover
prices of both soft and hard coal.

companies in Kentucky to bring
about return in yearly gross in

figures, of interest to every business
man, show the great amount of new

quately serve its customerf, were
made public by the Kentucky Com
nittee on Public Utility Information
The "turn- over" of invested cap
ital is much slower in the public util-
ity industry than in any other line
of business. The merchant receives
back over the counter in the form
Of sales the amount of his original
investment on the basis Of SO to
$40 per year for each 81 invested.
Capital invested in the manufacture
ing industry is "turned over" from
one to five times a year. But I'm the
public utility industry the outlay Of
capital for plants, lines, tracks and
other equipment is so great that
return in the form of sales of but
20 cents per year on each dollar
is the best that can be expected.
because of the extraordinary
capital demands of the industry and
the heavy investment necessitated in
every community obtaining electric,
gas, telephone, water, or street rail-
way srvice, it is clearly apparent
that nothing must be done that will
affect the credit Of these companies"
says the committee. "Unless the
companies are treated fairly by the
communities they serve they cannot
go into the money market and OBJ
tain the funds necessary to keep
pace with normal development and
render! the efficient service which
every citizen has right to expect.
mo industry makes as great a
permanent investment towards the
upbuilding of the community as the
public utility industry. A rightly f.
nanced and properly managed and
fairly regulated public utility COM
pany is as stable and enduring as
anything THAT can he found in the
business world. Supplying daily
necessities more and more in pub |
lie demand, growing as communities
and industries grow, necessarily |
equipped with large amount of val
liable, tangible property, staked, tied
to, and embedded in the soil, these
companies are urban and interur-
ban fixtures. They have ne years or
seasons to shut down due to poor

Eerprises must anticipate, for they
must furnish continuous and unend-
ng service. ADV.

 The agreement reached is that when the adjourned meeting conFenes tomorrow night in the state arlnorV the Taxpayers associations repre- sentative will submit an amendment to the report of the board of finance and taxation, as that report passed the common council, calling for a rate of 21 mills. A resolution will then be offered to take the vote on the tax rate for the ensuing year by ballot at a later date, which will be agreed upon previous to that date.
 The arrangements discussed yes- terday afternoon concerned having two ballots prepared one with the Fl mill rate and the other with the 25 mill rate with the possible grouping of wards if that is deemed proper. If the grouping method goes through it is thought there will be the three wards instead of the six for this one occasion. Investigation has shown that only electors may vote on the appropriations

 | At the meeting Mir. McMah on showed himself very interested in the 23 mill budget and somewhat of the opinion the 21 mill rate would not suffice.

ALLIES LOSE sos .OO0 TONS.
Estimate Made in France Gives These
 Figures of Sea Losses.

London. March 1.-The total All lied naval losses in the war aggre- gated SO3,000 tons, according to an estimate sent hy Reuters Paris cor respondent, and of this the British loss is $50, 900 tons. The Central Powers lost 5000 tons, but the German total of 350,000 tons does not cover the huge tonnage surrendered under the arnistice terms.
 Commenting on these estimates, the Westminster Gazette says that al though the figures given are not of ficial, they may be taken as closely approXimating the losses.
 "When we learn that in big ships alone we sacrificed thirteen battle- ships, three battle cruisers and twenty-five cruisers," it says, we get some notion of the tremendous char acter of the effort that was necessary to enable the navy to emerge from the war vastly more powerful than it was at the end of 1914.'
