 STORM OF SEASON
Those Who Retired Early Last Night Got Big Sur.
 prise This Morning

Waterbury was treated to It's first snow and sleet storm of the sec. son to-day. Starting shortly before midnight last evening the snow began to fall. It lot up during the early hours of this morning but was followed at 7:s0 o'clock by sieet which fell at various intervals throughout the morning.
 Officials of the Southern New England Telephone company and the Connecticut Light and Power company reported no damage rom the storm. Telephone trouble was normal and 50 was that of the power company. The Connecticut company employees were Kept busy keeping switches clear during tho night. Rails and switch boxes were kept thawed out and sanded.
 Generally speaking the initiaI snow and sleet storm of the season was not serious one. It merely surprised Waterburians. Those who retired anyway early last night missed tho start of tho sfiowf9ll anu were dumbfounded to-day when they arose to find tho ground ana roof tops covered with the wpito trimming.
 Only OH uUt-CVNSbO0 nttSss'' though, did the snow stick. Al fast as 1t hit the sidewalks ana paved streets 1t melted. The tom- pernturo was not very low to-day although throughout yesterday it reached only ns high as 4S degrees.
 To-day's snow storm is tho first of its kind SO early in tho season for several years back. Weather. men, however, predicted warmer weather ahead and, of course, this satisfied most everybody.
 Tavern keepers to-day reported a sharp falling-oft in their sales. apparently due to tho snow and the cold aspect which 1t present. cd to Waterburians. Motorists found slippery going only on the dirt covered roads and none at all on the paved highways. Hundreds of Waterburians changed from ,topcoats to overcoats as they glanced out the windows this morning and saw the land covered with snow. Many motorists mnde sure to put alcohol in thcir radia. tors. Youngsters prayed for moro snow so that they could get out their sieds but reports from tho weather department indicated that they would have to walt awhile yet.
