PROPOSE GENERAL STRIKE HERE
 TO SUPPORT IROLLEYMEN

fers TaftviIle mule spirners. carpen- ters and. joiners. electrical Hsworkers iron naeulders. harbe-s bakers. loon; fxers and theatrical employees.
 The trolleymen's strike which went into effect at midnight on Tuesday, July 15, called out. 300 men all over the system of the Shore Line road and it has been generally understood that scarcely any of them have re- turned to their former employment The roads.ha gradually resumed op- eration of the system section by sec tion, as fast as new men were hired and trained, and is now operating al most the entire system.
 The strike followed a demand for a wage raise from a scale where. the maximum was 42 1-2, cents an hour to a scale where the maximum would be ee cents an hour Various attempts to reach an arbitra ton | a agreement failed and the strike. followed. The roads answer to the demand for the higher wages was that it was not making running expenses and could not afford to pay any higher wages. The trolleymen claimed that the road officials had not lived up to the terms of an agreement by which the wage demands ought te have been submit ted to arbitration.

OPENING STYLE DAY DULL.
 BUT BUSINESS LIVELY

Browning skies and dull weather seemed an unpropropitious setting for the formal opening of the three Fall Style Days Tuesday; nevertheless the Norwich merchants were agreeably surprised to find that so many shop perS ignored. the gray day and prompt ly started autumnal buying.
 As rule the various business estab- ishments. especially those with milh- nery sections, were especially decorat- ed for. the day. That there was not an actual rush of buyers proved all the more advantageous for those who did get to the openings. as clerks and others had more leisure to display stocks, SO that some very satisfactory early sea son purchasing was the result.
 In millinery, the best colors this sea son are nasturtium shades of yellow, burnt orange, beaver, taupe, tet de ne- gre, navy and jade green.
 All conceivable shapes appear to be in favor. with turbans and continental or Directoire models leading.
 The most popular hat materials are velvets, panne (satin antique) and duvetine.
 All sizes of hats are also displayed, many coming with soft dropping brims, which are universally becoming.
 It is big year for feathers-ostrich in all of it's varieties leading Feath- CT hats continue strong and heckle breasts are used to trim many of the smartest types offered.
 Whats New In Furs.
 Entrancing models in fur coats are as modish as they are comfortable, the favored length being 30 to S6 inches. Com binationS of furS are very good.
 A Hudson seal design has deep bord- CT. collar and cuffs. of skunk, with seal belt which may be worn outside the garment or inside, at will. The price tag on this Swagger coat is $550.
 Seal and squirrel are combined in beautiful garments priced from $2oe up.
 Civet cat, raccoo1. narnot in two colors-the last named selling at s135 are all well liked.
 Suits and Coats.
 Browns blues and fancies lead in favor in suit coIors this season. De- signers seem to run to heavy ma teriais, like silvertones, in their pref erences.
 Suit coats are fairly loaded with orna mental buttons have much fancy strapping. big pockets. either patch or insert, but skirts continue plain and not over one and one-half yards wide.
 A chapter might be written on the trig new Fall and Winter long coats, so smartly tailored and so comfy but these will receive attention later.
 Meantime intending shoppers could not do better than to study the sug- sestions made by The Bulletins sdver- tisers oday.
