 New Britain motorists are about
 ts take ansthsr courss in their sdu'
 cation.
 Certain streets on which trailc |
 heavy will bs designated "beuls- varAs'' and drivers turning into these streets will be required te bring their cars to . complete step
 bsfore proceeding farther.
 During the experimental period complaints will b. heard. no doubt,
 from many sources. This world ia
 alled with people who are unwilling to try anything new. If their life
 streams are diverted ever 70 little
 from the course which they have
 pursued their walls can be heard for
 blocks. It is recalled that vociferoui dsnunciation followed the installa- ton of one-vay trafac around Cen.
 tral park in the heart of the city. Quite . few citizens snssred covertly at the regulations while others howled until they were hoarse. But 1t is difficult to believe that even these who protested most vigorously would care to return to conditions prior to the enforcement of tho one. way edict when no mans neck or lenders were safe.
 ''Boulevard streets" have been expsrimentsd with in other com. ,nunities. After . trial period they have been adopted with enthusiasm because they have contributed to safety and have reduced the hazard which turks at every intersection. They make for quicker travel for thoss who use them and require . greater degree of caution from others coming out of communicating thoroughfares. There is no reason to suppose that they will not be suc- cessful in this city.
 Deep Tan Complexion
 Now Popular With Women ; Shades of Belshaxsar, the day Of the lily white skin seems to have gone with the hoopskirt era back to oblivion. The Observer had occa-, sion recently to glance through a fashion magazine. not through cu- riosity but for lack of something more interesting to do. The lady on the cover smiled at him from countenance of deep tan, the color acquired by . seasons 'lolling in the bright sunlight. As he glanced through the pages he was more than surprised to find that the artists had given not one but all of the ladies the same sunburnt complexion. Even the little children were not free. They too looked like citizens of 1n- dia all dressed up in American "The artist must have had . surplus Of brown ink on hand and used it up thusly." thought ye Ob- server. But on further perusal, he discovered an article which cleared up whatever doubts he may have had on the subject. The article di- vulged the secret of the tan com plexions.
 The new tan complexion is quito a fad among the ladies. Not 70 much in the North as yet. because it is to resemble as close as possible. that hue which formerly could be attained only by much ex- posure to the sunlight. There are on tho market now creams and powders which give ts the skin the much desired coating of tan. These cosmetics. along with exposure to the sun for . certain length of time, bring about the results the artists have pictured in the magazines. Of course the neckline is bound to show when milady dons her sheer or backless gowns for winter functions but Dame Fashion has taken care of this matter also. She has decreed that the neckline be cut very low in back and some of the bathing suits have no backs 10 speak Of. What . picnic ground for the sand- flies and mosquitoes.
 The Observer cannot help remem- Der the days when the ladies covered up as much of the lily white epi- dermis a possible 70 that the cruel suns rays could not put in their work of burning and tanning. And If. perchance. milady's complexion did become tanned through expo sure. she spent considerable time and expense on bleaches and creams to bring back that schoolgirl ap- pearance. How the ladies do change with the years. Miss 1929 spends time and money for something which Miss 1899 sought to lose. And so the Observers time was not wasted after all. for he learned which previous 10 now has been kept a dark secret. Fireman Was On Way
