An anniversary observance in which all Waterbury and vicinity have been invited to participate is now being sponsored by the Had ley Furniture company. 1t Is an event of unusual significance and not little sentiment for Hadley's has played a big part in the re- alization of hopes and plans of thousands of home-bdilders. It has co-operated with countless num- bers in solving problems pertaining to household necessities and luxu- ries and pointing out the most practical and economical way to furnishing or beautifying the home. For over period of 17 years Had ley's has carried on, winning not only the patronage of thousands but their confidence and goodwill. It Is with justifable pride that Had ley's recalls to the public's mind it's record of accomplishment and announces it's elaborate plans of the present and the future.
 As a public feature of the ob- servance, Hadley's Is conducting it's 17th anniversary sale, an event which invites the interest of all and an incident in the mercantile history of Waterbury that bids fair to be chronicled as an outstanding achievement. Six spacious floors of the Hadley's home in the Demo- crat building on the corner of Grand and Canal streets are being edvoted to an exposition of beauti- full furniture, in addition to exhi- bits that represent expert sugges- tion for model homes. The latter feature not only reveals how homes can be beautified and made cozy, but offers hundreds of prac- tical hints that can be adopted economically. The modern mer- chandise which Hadley stores fea- ture are products of factories of international repute. Only the tre- mendous purchasing power of the organization makes it possible for 26 Hadley stores throughout the country to retail to the public the best in furnishings at moderate prices. There is an appreciable saving in every penny invested in a purchase at Hadley's.

Through the co operation of manufacturers Hadley's is in a position to-day to cooperate more generously than ever with the public by offering values that are supreme in quality and most reasonably priced.
 With every purchase Hadley's imbued with the spirit of the an- niversary and grateful for the patronage over a period of F years is presenting each patron with substantial gift. Over $7,500 in presents have been reserved for the firms legion of customers. Ev-

MEN NEED MORE SEX
 APPEAL IN CLOTHES.
Bx NEA Service

By NEA Service
 Pittsburg-Men are drab crea- t..res because they, unlike women, refuse to instill sex appeal in their clothes. ,
 "There's plenty of sex appeal in mems clothes, if you know how to emphasize it. "Oscar J. vogl. mems style expert explains. "but the men don't do 1t.
 'sMen's fashions tag along after those of women and so, like the women, men are, going in for the tall willowy figure this fall. To create this effect tails on dress suits will be longer and waistcoats will be longer andwaistcots will be shorter. High belted topcoats, notched Iapeis and the two-button lopels and the two-button sack coat are all designed along this height-giving idea"
 It's style that catches the fem mine eye, and Vogl is Of the foi- lowing opinion:
 "The man who's sloppy about the shoulders of his suit, the way his collar fits and its style, and the manner of hearpiece he wears, is out with women"

Free Books for
 Night Schools New State Law Requires School to Furnish
 Supplies

For the first time in the history of the night schools, students will have their books and supplies pur- chased by the school department instead of paying for them them selves as heretofore.
 Superintendent of School Michael c. Donovan stated yesterday that the new state law requires that the school department bear the ex- pense of purchasing the supplies and textbooks used by the stu- dents in the night schools. This will eliminate much expense incurred by the adults who have been receiving their education at the evening schools.

motor vehicle without an accident, for the period of one year. In addi- ton, each member of the winning team receives a photograph of the winning team.
 The friendly rivalry thus created has accomplished a great deal in reducing accidents. Thus far the past two years the Worden com- pany has not had a single public li- ability case and the insurance com- pany has paid out average of less than $15 per year, during the past number of accidens has been more than cut in half. The contest has made the men safety conscious and careful operators of motor vehicles. Much credit is due to the individual men for the spirit in which they have entered into the contest. They are very careful in checking condi- ton of their trucks, in regard to brakes, horns and general mechani- cal condition.
 The annual get-together and making of awards was held in the plant last night with entertainment being furnished by Dorothy Stern- berg and Lillian Mccoy, the Wor- den Milky Way Quartet and Sam Barlow.
 The awards included a certifi- cate, a sweater and a picture of the winning team and the recipients in- cluded: Frank O'Connor, Bill Sum- ma, A. Lassari, Joseph Beirsdorfer John Perugini, Bert Shea, John Di- tato, William Smith, James En- bardo, George Mclaughlin, L. Wells, Joseph Clarity, Edward Blank, William Rossi and Daniel Summa. Thomas Delaney was given a certificate for driving a a number of months without an ac- cident, his record being clear for the time which he has served as a driver.
