 saloons and transforming them
 into restaurants. Did the proprietors
 of saloons hem and haw when they
 got their orders? They did not. They
 just got busy and tore things right
 and left so that there would be no
 traces of the old saloon. 'N They are doing 1t with all the spirit and energy that used to be inspired by stuff in bottles, perhaps. Anyway they have shown commendible zeal in carry ing out instructions, and 1t is probable that the day will come when the old invitation Have drink" will be re- placed by Have Hot Dog," and there will be lines of inhabitants Of the eating center of the world sitting before counters, discussing problems of the day and reaching in vain for the old brass rail that used to bring such rest to work-weary feet.

ovERDRAwING ACCOUNTS

The very thought of 1t offends the sense of every business person. Over drawing accounts brings a frown im- med1ately Information comes to light that there is an overhaul of over S16,ooe in the permanent paving ac- count and nearly s1.500 in the pav- ing repair account This is not un- usual No wonder Mayor Paonessa is concerned. An extra tax had to be levied last year. and the probability that one will have to be levied this year is not pleasant. It would seem that the only thing that would prevent such a disagreeable situation would be the exercise Of the strictest economy by other departments so that money might be transferred to these paving and repairing departments to make LID the def1cit when the time comes, next spring, toward the end Of the fiscal year, for making transferences from one account to another. Nor does this imply that the strietest economy has not been exercised in the matter of paving.
 In 8 sefse this urging of economy in other departments in order to come to the help of the paving department is not treating the other departments unfairly. It is right that each depart ment should take pride in It's own efl- eiency and in the results it achieved. Results are not achieved without

OBSER YER Makes Random Observations
 On the City and Its People

The sudden shock of the president'
 death seemed to bring in this city temporary silence on the part o'
 critics of the administration. The late
 presidents attitude on many matters
 and his failure to take dennit'
 stand on others, had brought nm much criticism from the man along the street. But there was never much expressed disapproval of him as man and a citizen. The silencing o' this criticism, If only temporary, was tribute to him personally, and 1t was not until after that tribute had beer paid that surmises began to be made as to what sort of a president CaiVir Coolidge would make; who the nex' republican candidate would be, and what effect the death of the late president would have upon the poliu- cal situation.
 In this city the general knowledge of President Coolidge is not great. Il is remembered that he showed hrm- ness in the matter of the police strike in Boston, and this slight indication of strength was pointed out as en- couraging. On the other hand It would seem that his place on the ticket was given to him as regular and that little change in the policy of evasion that has marked the recent administration would come. The gen. eral opinion seems to be that things will continue at Washington about as they have been going; that harmony of party will be sought and that Pres ident Coolidge will seek to impress the party leaders with his qualifications as the next republican nominee, rather than to look discerningly at the pres ent feeling of dissatisfaction through out the country.
 Most of us own cars, especially peo- pie who cannot afford them. and so most of us are interested in the new rules that keep coming out about driv- ing them. Incidentally there are prob- a bly, more people who can afford cars but who do not own any than there are people who cannot afford them and do own them-if you want to stop to figure that out But speaking of new rules 1t seems rather falr that one has just been given out which will prevent people driving cars for an space of time without get ting licenses, just b 4cause they have licensed operators by their side-or a licensed operator, rather. .-'
 The new rule says that any person who for any period of time exceeding ! month drives motor vehicle over the highways of Connecticut accom- ranied by a licensed operator but without a license of his own can be prosecuted. This, accord ng to the opinion of Attorney Gen ,ral Frank F. Healy.
 It being now the sweet season of summer when maid and laddie are won't to drive occasionally, the laddie having the license and the lassie none, md the laddie very apt to teach the

money. But every person in the city
 has recognized the great need of the
 paving departments which seem to be paramount just now. It is right for each department to take pride In what it accomplishes, but 1t should be re- membered that each department is working for the whole city, too, and an achievement in saving money to be used by another department if neces- sary should be considered a great help to the whole city. If each department does it's work we'll, at the same time trying to save for another department, the extra tax might be avoided. Sev- eral departments saved money last year. They were commended in these columns. They will be watched this year, and such saving will be recogniz- ed as a great achievement by any department which comes to the scratch just now.
