Though all of this territory officially re- gards daylight saving as a thing of the past in so far as abiding by it is con cerned. this will not allow the population of this section of eastern Connecticut to escape from the necessity of again figur- ing on that baSis when considering travel by train on and after next Sunday

WHAT KIND OF SOAP FOR A WASHING
 MACHINE

I always think of soap as the partner of a washer. Some soaps are lazy partners, others do their full share of the work.
 Soaps that do not dissolve completely, that give light, frothy suds without substance, make washing machine do more than it's share of the work.
 Rinso, the new kind of soap, helps the washer do its best work. Every grain IS so pure and per- fectly balanced that 1t loosens all the dirt. It prepares the way for the efficient operation of the machine. When you use Rinso you don't have to rub at all.
 Whether they have a washing machine or not, women the country over are using Rinso in place of bar soap at every step of the family wash.
