PARISIAN STYLES
 ARE ON PARADE
Grand PriX Races in France
 Bring Out Fashions

Paris, June 26 GPl-Paris gave its annual outdoors fashion review to- day when the mode of the season reached full flower at the Grand IriXe De Drags at the Autenil race track.
 Society was out in full force. The promenade and grandstand bloomed with pale greens. soft greys, delicate corals, light blues and intense reds
 For weeks Parisian dressmakers have been busy preparing their GUS toners for the "Drags" and today's assemblage favored by bright sun shine and soft breezes, reflected the mode in dainty chiffons and ostrich feathers and more tailored taffetas and sports costumes.
 Many Americans watched the races; English was spoken as freely as French in the paddock and on the promenade. Diplomatic society was well represented in the boxes, which bloomed with borders of bright flowers.
 The dignity of the grand mode was somewhat relieved by advance shoWings of the styles for Deauville and other resorts, worn by slim mannilins One of the sensations was a pair of high boots trimmed with brown calf, with bare knees plainly visible beneath q short skirt of striped kasha. Another was a Deauville costume of oyster white linen, boyantly trimmed with broad bands of red, yellow and black with sunshade to match
 Absinthe green was the chosen color of most of the elaborate cos tunes, special creations designed by the fashion houses specialized in or gandie long skirts and flower effects. Buttonhole cOrsages reached as- size and variation, carna- lions, the size of cabbages, great bouquets of sweet peas, clusters of mauve orchids and bouquets Of Cal ifornia poppies were worn by wo- men high on the left shoulder. The new mode of fine silvered chains about the ankle. instead of the wrist, was much in evidence.

BINGHAM AND MLEAN

The difference between Connec- ticuts senior senator and his junior partner is one of tempera- ment, manner and speech. Bing- ham, although new to the corridors of the Senate, believes in being heard as often as possible. Mclean is of more retiring disposition and Is rarely heard from except when he votes.
 Bingham is more of an oppor- tunist, too. Witness the alacrity with which he has taken up the issue of states rights. Mclean in all probability knows as much about the tendency of the federal government to encroach upon the rights of the states as does Bing- ham. and probably knew or the circumstances long before Bingham agitatcd himself into becoming yitallv concerned. But Mclean con- tinues in comparative quietude and obscurity about it, while Bingham lets pass no opportunity 10 point with alarm" and arouse the state 10 studied opposition.
 The facts are Bingham acts like q man intent upon making repu- tation as a live senator, while Me Lean conducts himself as if his reputation is already made Bing- ham needs attention and publicity; Mclean dooqn't care for either, Whenever speaker is needed round the state, Bingham is will ing to repeat his states rights ad- dress. if not in person then through 4 proxy. Mclean is rarely asked 10 furnish an oration because the feeling is general he does not care to he disturbed.
 Bingham has done more talking and has been identified with more debates in the Senate than any new senator in the history of that quiet and Iignjned institution. He rae set for a speech the day he reached the Senate, and let it be known early that ha was not lacking in ability 10 discuss any bill on the calendar. Mclean rare Iy discusses. but is a good listener.
 Bngham's idea of a senator is one who does not care 10 sit down if the chair permits him 10 stand, McLean's idea of a senator is one who likes 10 remain seated in peac' and quiet, and dozc when the de- bate becomes commonplace. When Bingham arises 10 fling hectic re- marks upon the air Mclean listens with dianifcd admiration. con graduating his confrere upon a point well taken and extending sympat mpathy-mentalIy-when worst ed
 Both have one thing in common they frequently vote on the los ins side.

On The Saturday Store Closing In last evenings Herald there was an article by q woman in regard to store closing Saturday evenings.
 It appears that there are only a certain few merchants in New Brit ain that have any consideration for their employees. What a shame, when on realizes how hard and con stantly some employees work for their employer.

"I don't know what the world s

His lis teners crowded close during that time, no one saying a word, because they knew that the venerable gentle man would have something of vast
 import to impart to those assembled. While we're waiting we might say that Uncle Lie has arrived in New Britain for 0 stay of several weeks with one Of his "datters' who re- sides here. He stopped at the Her aid office today but no one was
 home, so he told the gang that he would call again, thereby walking
 out backwards so everyone would think he was walking in.
 No, sir" repeated Uncle Lie, T don't know what the worlds acom- in to-" and he paused, q look of gentle despair creeping over his kindly face. That strongly chiseled countenance. typical of the real
 Yankee" had never worn an ex- pression more demonstrative of gen.
 uine regret, intermingled with grief and beard. His eyes, deep sunk, and of a steel blue color, which have
 not lost their keenness throughout
 the long years, wore an expression
 which is best described as one oi
 slight pain. His left ear twitched
 continually.
 "I don't know what the worlds

 would never have said that if he

TIE OBSER YER. On the City and Its People
 Makes Random Observations

Itoc1s drawn on the subject, the usual experimentation of papers and soda bottles can be found along the country roads and in public parks on the day following the weekly holiday Sunday.
 Some time ago. an appeal was made to those who patronize Walnut Hill park 10 try to preserve the grandeur of the green slopes and keep il thing of beauty. At that time the cry went up that there were not enough receptacles in which 10 place the ruL bish. This summer sev- eral cans have been placed about but evidently a great many people do not know or do not care 10 know what they are for.
 A Monday morning trip through the park would sometimes startle the citizen who is proud of his parks. Here and there, scattered all over the hilsides, are newspa- pers, wrapping paper. bottles and boxes which once contained pop corn or candy and sometimes the contents are spread out along with the containers. II is not an edifying sight and one begins to wonder what kind of people congregated there. In some cases it undoubtedly is but in most cases We sometimes wonder how those same people would like 10 have strangers come into their yards and there throw all the rub Dish possible.
 Why shouldn't a city park be con- sidered one big yard where everyone is free 10 do as he pleases as long as he is within the law but yet to be kept clean?
 True, there are men hired to clean up every Monday morning and the birds and squirrels enjoy the parties of peanuts and pop corn left over from the feast, but nevertheless it is a jar on the nerves to walk through q park filtered up with rub hish when a little thoughtfulness could avert such a condition.

Although Milton Brown. who was shot on the eve of his graduation from New Britain High school last year, is dead, he has not been for gotten by at least one of his chums, who has sent his mother a beautiful poem expressive Of his feelings of loss.
 When Milton and his friends went out for a froic, as boys will, one lad in the crowd was usually singled out to be the butt of many cruel jokes. Milton always championed his cause and defended him against the jibes of the others in the crowd. AS q result he frequently incurred the displeasure of his Chums but he stood his ground manfully.
 The boy who found champion in young Brown has applied himself to his work and is on the road 10 success in his special field. He has a pcnchant for writing and compo- sition which he frequently uses to advantage. Evidence of this is found in the poem which he has sent 10 Mrs. Brown a .ear after losing his defender.

Automobile drivers who have oc- casion to use the road which runs under the memorial arch at the en- trance to Walnut Hill park and which skirts the park proper are complaining about riding conditions. It is doubtful whether there is a worse roadway in the city and if q passenger closes his eyes for a mo- mont he can easily imagine that he is traversinG the highway between New Britain and Berlin.
 For several years the park road has been threatening to go to pieces. It has been patched until fl appears lige a gigantic carzy quilt the kind Grandma used to make when women did their own sewing. Drivers cling to their wheels desperately while pas sengers hang on to the seats and pray that the ordeal will soon be over. Imagine riding over million warts about three inches high and anywhere from foot to three feet in diameter and you have a mental picture of what it is like.
 Although 1t is true that the park way is not used by the public in general. if is the avenue leading to q large section of the city and deserves more consideration at the hands of the public works board. Few visitors come to New Britain without being taken to Walnut Hill park. Their admiration for the landscape and scenery certainly must be tempered by riding the bumps around this marvellous work of nature and man.
